Well Kylo knowing who she is would make sense given the degree to which he went to capture her plus his reaction when he found out a girl from Jakku was involved at all. The whole sequence when the Xwings show up and start kicking ass was very nice. Especially that extended shot of Poe just...

I also like how his cell phone / computer is cracked.

I dont know how much is from the books, but I love the casual use of plausible future tech in scenes like Julie's apartment. Having to calibrate the voice faking utility and then using that to access her stuff felt very natural.

I figured the smaller scale battle was intentional both because the Resistance was more akin to the Mission Impossible crew rather than the U.S. military. So it's them fighting against an evil madman bent on destroying the world and not a whole other country. It also allows things to be more...

So the planet at the very end... is that supposed to be Tython, or are they creating a new birthplace of the Jedi Order? Some things I noticed on second viewing: 1) Carrie Fisher's daughter(Billie Lourd who was also in Scream Queens this past fall) is all over the place in the scenes on...

They did announce a second season prior to the first episode even airing, so they seem to have confidence in it.

I read a demo chapter on Amazon that seemed to cover most of the first episode, so I think at the very least it is one book per season and I'm not even truly sure they would make it to the end of the first book in these 10 episodes. I feel they have plenty of material to use.

The bad news is that are only 10 episodes. The good news is that this more than likely means the quality will remain high rather than stretching out plot points or devolving into filler episodes. Adaptations of written works do at least benefit from having a clear mandate with respect to plot...

That is what happens for one of the core faction companions when you become an enemy of their faction but are still max reputation with them. It seems particularly idiotic in Danse's case since he was always picking fights with the BoS vertibirds flying around. Talk about self-loathing....

I became enraged when I realized that Danse rejects you if you become an enemy of the BoS...even though having him around makes you an enemy of the BoS.

Intentional attempt to gauge popularity / demand following the end of the two-night premiere? By leaking episodes 3 and 4 but not episode 2 (having already shown episode 1 on the web for a month) you may rule out those who are just accumulating episodes rather than those who have seen episode 2...

I really do wonder what they were thinking by having that very public beta test. Sure it has become something of a marketing null hypothesis that if you don't have a public test or embargo your reviews then the game is terrible...but I think they might have been much better off keeping things...

Uhhh what the fuck is this? The film starts with some borg/zerg swarming the ship and everyone ends up on some heretofore unknown planet dealing with some new race we have never seen before? So far the whole of the new Trek sequence is a bunch of people really angry with the Federation...

Well... Usually when they have an NDA in place for an alpha/beta it is because they don't want people talking about how lacking the title is or pointing out its flaws in the media...but so far this is pretty damn sweet.

Paladin Danse response

This has all escalated rather quickly...

With all the merchandise for the new movie (including but not limited to freaking make-up from Revlon) I am saddened to see a lack of that badass trench coat that General Hux is wearing. It looks like a nice update on the Gestapo-style black leather trench from WW2 and pretty darn spiffy.

God dammit Malcolm...seriously not cool.

If I were metal-melter dude I'd be really nervous about this first iteration of the team... One main character, one attractive support character, and you heading into the first mission. Comic book rules state one is a goner.

For anyone in Boston or near the greater New England area the Showcase Cinema in Revere MA has added 4D showtimes which still have many seats available for the 18th. For those unaware 4D is the thing where the seat tilts and bucks along with wind / mist blowing at you etc. Saw The Martian at...

This wasn't a "hey a couple characters guest star..." it was a full blown actual crossover. I was stunned by the number of Arrow characters that showed up, and it seems like Laurel, Sarah, and River Song may be showing up tonight in part two since they mentioned that Laurel was already in...

Dec 14th and 15th two night event. Only worry is that this might get completely overshadowed by the Force Awakens later that same week. Maybe the success of the film will bring in more subsequent viewers eager for a sci-fi fix.

I've spoken to guys who fit in with that documentary and they are extremely judgemental of anyone who dares to call into question the sanctity of the Gift... the advent of PrEP has fueled this culture and allowed it to grow exponentially it seems.

Had a fun case where a vertibird decided to help out me and Paladin Danse but in the process shot Danse and thus after the monster was dead Danse proceeded to blow the vertibird out of the sky killing many of his BoS brethren...

The Turkey Day marathon has been a good chance to get a snippet of the new cast. Not feeling the new Tom Servo though...

This week we get an introduction to the Interdictor Class Star Destroyer... At this point I think the writing staff is just working their way through the X-wing series of games.

Online only, but this includes SyFy Now which is available on the usual devices as an app.

So as predicted from the cinematic trailer

That was very impressive...It felt broad in scope yet grounded via the different perspectives.

Only plebes use flying ships. Ballers travel in flying cities. I am very glad to see the return to Dalaran as the hot-zone base of operations both because it makes a lot of sense and because I really loved the whole design of the place. After the lukewarm bases in Pandaria and the absolute...

This is very good stuff. I will never look at the 10th Doctor the same way again...

I probably wont even get flagged for the weekend... I used to get into all the Blizz stuff so I really do wonder if I got flagged as a malcontent.

Given that the origin of Hydra is now tied to Apocaly...err ancient inhuman with god-like powers and they had the monolith in their possession in the first place I suspect we will see that Hydra has more ties to inhumans than they had originally let on. Then again it makes them using Loki's...

Oryx had to contend with OSHA regulations. The Taken are nothing against the power of Bureaucracy.

Yeah it looks like the crossover sets up Legends of Tomorrow which then runs after X-mas during the winter break and then after that is over we go back to the main series.

https://youtube.com/watch?v=1Gu8BpwGQQI can't believe these really exist...

Some things like that just need to be near a power relay point, while other items like the comm tower or water purification need a dedicated line. Once you connect a house to the grid you can use light bulbs TVs etc anywhere inside. I find myself thoroughly enjoying the freedom of the game to...

That does make sense. I was already thinking Zoom had to be someone we would recognize if he took off the mask. Barry has serious issues with father figures
