This season... ugh. That is all.

It's 10 years too late. At this point I'd rather see a Farscape movie that takes place in its universe but with a new cast of characters despite whatever juvenile crush I had on Claudia Black. But of course they have to market it at core fans because who else would even know the slightest...

This was an enjoyable film and had it not had a guy named Noah or a large wooden ship it would have easily fit in as one of the better post apocalyptic / sci fi films of recent years. Ray Winstone made a good villain, Crowe was decent and the golem / angels were great additions and made fairly...

Okay

She gabbed about it to Ziggy in episode 7. There are some possible nods the past two episodes that have me inclined to believe that Floki is playing a part for Ragnar; that scene at the party in Ragnar's hall where he is observing everyone through a screen as Ziggy talks to Floki's woman and...

Yeah that is handy and it's pretty funny that the type B has no external doors whatsoever... but with a 4 rock starting crew who needs them. You were right about the Stealth C Kaid it looks pretty painful, I really wish that at least one drone heavy ship would start with the recovery arm, it...

Haha I will look forward to it. Just had an interesting Lanius B run; 2 flak, swarm missile, chain ion and 3 zoltan for power. Pretty much ravaged the entire game with Lanius boarding party until last node before final sector when the enemy jumped away in the nick of time stealing my Lanius...

If you enjoy it keep plugging away, half the fun for me was going after unlocks and playing the different load outs. I'm half way through the type C's... stealth B run is going to be a pain in the butt.

I have mixed feeling about hacking drones, they are useful but I loathe the fact that you can't retarget them. I lost to the phase one boss using the Zoltan B because it hacked my weapon system after I hacked its cloak despite my defense drone... I had no teleport so I had no way to disable its...

After TWD, The Killing and canceling Rubicon just when it was starting to get a bit interesting I was losing faith in AMC and now Turn comes along and gets me all optimistic again. The first two episodes were quite enjoyable and I like the time period and material, hopefully the rest of the...

I guess the shocking twist is that the preview from the last episode didn't actually spoil anything after all. I'm glad that the Borg storyline is finally over and am look forward to Horrik's resolution as well... it's a pity that the both of them didn't just die in the opening battle of the...

Well this released today and from what I have seen of it nothing much has changed from my previous look; random mob spawns and quests like find the spell, slay the undead, kill the dragons still dominate the early game... in the exact same order... every time. Call me crazy but I don't find the...

I was convinced this was a parody lol, props to Nintendo for making something so zany.

Wait till the first expansion or major DLC comes out, as it stands AOW3 is much like CIV5 at release; the potential for a good game exists but for now it is a flawed mess that focused more on making every race blandly equivalent to one another rather than fun. The first few hours are great...

Final 2 cents: I find that I enjoy the early game quite a bit as that is when tactics matter most, it is also fun to go item hunting in the "dungeons"... I really wish they were crawls with final bosses instead of just a room with the exact same mobs per difficulty level each time. Still it is...

Yeah the village strongman politics, which amounts to nothing much more than thoughtful stares then sudden violence is a lot less entertaining than the actual raiding. It would have been more interesting if Ragnar had actually decided to be true to his word to begin with (the pact) then we...

I did run into one city that had 4 trebuchets and a bunch of mages behind a stone wall that could have complicated things if my mage hero hadn't had Chaos Rift... it's pretty much GG once that thing is cast if your opponent can't dispel it. Funny thing was the AI cast it on me first but I had...

I really wish that they had preserved the chance to miss outright from the previous games... dealing with walled enemy cities is a joke when you can just mass fire on the 1 or 2 ranged units the AI seems to keep in there, once that dies everything else just pops out. It used to be that...

I really wish that they had devoted an episode to Lagertha in her new land, she has supposedly been there now for 5+ years and yet we know nothing about how that community views her or indeed anything about anyone there besides her husband. How did she organize a war band without her lords...

Recall Syiro Forel the First Sword of Braavos, Aryas fencing master, the playwright might be his brother the First Quill. George still has to confirm whether that cunning bugger escaped or not from Kings Landing; no death can be accepted in this story without a body... aside from Cat sadly.

That and it was implied that she would ditch the persona after her performance that night which means she was probably just there to learn a bit of mummery. I do wish that the chapter had dealt more with her mentors and their society instead of a highly unlikely chance encounter (though we...

If you mean the Bishop from the raid... no, I'd say the multiple arrows and the slit throat were pretty effective.

I played the pre release version for a few hours and I found it a bit dull, the fractured world while an interesting idea wasn't implemented very well; it creates choke points everywhere leading to near complete isolation of competing mages which means you (& the AI mages) end up fighting random...

Elantris is his first novel and it shows; it's not horrendous but you won't be missing anything if you never pick it up. If you loved Mistborn 1 then continue onwards.

Thank you good sir.

I for one would be glad to read the rest of the chapter if you feel like loading it up Dandai

I guess Captain Justice could be anyone now that I think on it, hopefully we will get an explanation of how he got the sword.

I'd hardly call Nightblood intelligent from what I read in Warbreaker, more like barely self aware. It has potential though since Sanderson can do anything he wants with it and Vasher; who knows how much time has passed and how much has changed, Vasher after all has seemingly turned into a...

The quality drops off quite a bit after book 2 in WoT; the things he does wrong with his characters only become more pronounced as the story goes on. Some books are better than others but I felt that he never recaptured the momentum he had in the first two books and instead went forward...

I imagine that it will be able to feed off of whatever powers shardblades and stormlight in general like it does breath from the wielder in Warbreaker. It still seems like it would be a downgrade from an honorblade though as the sword doesn't grant any abilities to its wilder or didn't in...

That multilingual version was beautiful. Check this out if you want a chuckle; the song redubs starting around 2:00 had me cracking up.

I wish Lynch had managed to bring the city of mages to life like he did Carmorr.

All logical explanations but it would have been more interesting and credible if we got to see into the mans mind a little bit to reach that judgement; as it is he like most of the other princes is a blank who is defined by simplistic motivations and who enters or exits the narrative at a whim...

That's how it's presented; that he thrives on being contrary and irksome to the other princes and that he also happens, quite fortuitously, to be a true patriot but it just doesn't sit right with me because he didn't know anything about her. Men in positions of power don't remain there by...

Quill18 has a series going on this in English. quill18 - YouTube It just looks like an updated version of the other games which is a good thing for most I suspect.

Yes once she meets her new "mentor" everything just starts clicking for her again for not entirely valid reasons. Her patron in the war camps is an especially prime example as he doesn't want anything from her; it's almost like she enchanted him into believing that he actually is her uncle...

He was the representative of a group of beggars in Elantris and he had about one line of dialogue; it was just a cameo, he had no actual role in that novel, I'm not sure about the others. Also to anyone considering a read of Elantris I would say don't as it only serves as an example of how much...

I despise this argument in defense of bad writing in fiction. For a story to have any sort of quality and impact on the viewer/reader there needs to be some level of plausibility and continuity (within the context of the narrative) to a characters motivations and actions or else the story will...

The sword has no information pertaining to it within this series as far as I know, that said, some of his other books tie into his Cosmere universe and some characters make crossovers (Wit) and now this sword which is presumably from his other novel Warbreaker. Other references to crossovers...

Look forward to Canada; they have wolves too but y'know... they're DIRE.
