This should have been the first one. Really. The history of the character was covered in the story. You could have started this one with the plane diving into the ocean, the Nick Fury scene in modern NYC, and then gone into this movie, and everything would have been perfect. As is, this is about...

How about "SciFi Channel" changing to "SyFy Channel". That was pretty much a knell of doom for any future project. Yeah, let's rename our company in such a way as to show we're totally abandoning the company's fundamental market and premise.

Wow, that would have been a good way to improve 2 movies. Maybe Man-Of-Steel guys should take a look at that and learn something.

Satan's other name, Lucifer, means "Bringer of Light." I don't see a problem. (cough, cough)

One of the (many) possibly apocryphal tales during the making of SW is that the reason Kenobi dies on the Death Star is that Lucas didn't have him doing anything during the death-star trench run, and he thought that there needed to be a reason Kenobi wasn't the one blowing up the death star...

"Torchwood is the Adult 'Doctor Who'" had major problems as a concept. At first, it was more like a teenager's Doctor Who--the only things adult about it were sex and swearing. And it wasn't happy adult sex. It was either voyeuristic or "Hah, I nailed you, didn't I." "No, I made You my trophy."...

Indeed. Could be fun, but I understand the desire of the GREAT ONE, He Who Doth Own These Forums, to not want that type of discussion going further. Still having to work to censor myself some times.

But the very first time Torchwood was even mentioned, they DID have the technology to blow up a spaceship. Even with the losses suffered in "Doomsday", Torchwood still has lots of gear. Lots and lots of gear. There was a solution. It may have been more convenient for the story to ignore the...

An under-educated population is easier to control. Why should they change the system? They've been working hard to make High-school less and less effective!

Um, Ace blew up Daleks with 1963 technology. UNIT had bullets designed to pierce Dalek casings in 1989. Torchwood had a Dalek frozen in time at the entrance to their bunker, and if they used the other alien tech, could have done who knows what. With the right weapons and ammunition, there is no...

Try this: Your government sends police and soldiers into Your home to take Your child as a sacrifice to aliens. You and your child somehow escape, or your kidnapped child is eventually returned to you. What bribe could any government possibly offer you as a sop to allow you to permit the...

I thought stretching the goofy "How to Train Your Dragon" from a 30-page book to a 2 hour movie was going to be a stretch. Turns out to have been Dreamworks best work (IMNSHO). Turning a 54-page book into three 2-hour movies? eeeehhhhhh

You seriously have to ask? Take the gloves off and unleash Torchwood and UNIT! Turn them loose on the menace. If they can destroy the Siccorax space ship, they could have blown the 459 away while they were on approach. (Maybe fire a warning shot first if Harriet Jones isn't Prime Minister)...

And look how many soldiers have died Protecting children. No matter what, consider the only acceptable aftermath of an event like this. If the government was willing to send their children to the aliens, the masses would revolt. No government could survive (by this, I don't mean the government...

Yeah, but the kid who played "Little Boy Indy" is probably only about 35-40.

People is one thing. Most humans have a desire to protect Children. Even children that aren't their own. Soldiers and police still usually count as human. So yeah, I have a hard time believing that there was no resistance whatsoever to the orders to round up children and sell them to an alien...

Biggest reason I have hope for this movie: Not Joe Johnson directing.

I could have a field day with that one, but it would be interpreted as insulting and/or offensive to people's religions.

Only thing I wish they'd do is either sell them as a set, or just not sell them in the baseball card random packaging. Or make an even number of all the characters so that the odds of getting any given character are all the same. (what it took to get complete sets of some of the previous series...

That would be I. (giant shock) Torchwood had it's problems from the beginning, trying to figure out what kind of show it was going to be. By the end series 1, it seemed to have it sorted. A few random episodes were a little weird or weak, but by the end of series 2 it was an overall decent show...
