Ah. Forgive my ignorance, but what exactly is Maanzecorian? Also, forgot to add, I really liked the reference the Doctor gave regarding the Sense Sphere being close to the Ood sphere. The Sense Sphere of course, was the home of the Sensorites, whom the Doctor encountered in his First...

The TARDIS arrives upon an icy world, which the Doctor finds out is the home of the telepathic Ood. Soon he and Donna are investigating the shady dealings of Ood Operations and it's CEO Klineman Halpen (Tim McInnerny), in order to learn the secret of the Ood's willing subservience to humanity...

Virtuality - I'm kinda getting tired of the dark scifi trend that people like Ron Moore and David Eick have been pushing on us in recent years. Sure it can pay dividends (i.e BSG), but it can also bomb horribly (i.e. Bionic Woman). Less angst and more wonder please. Fringe - I'd be hyped up for...

:) On the contrary, The Empire Strikes Back happens to be my favorite film in the whole Star Wars saga. And I honestly believe that those scenes with Yoda training Luke are some of best in cinema history. But what I took from that quote was that Yoda was pressing upon Luke that even a small...

:) Funny dude. But I've read that in the New Jedi Order series, Luke was able to shift the orbit of a planet. Now while I think Luke is the best character in the entire saga, that just reeks of overkill, and totally stretching the bounds of credibility. For my part, the Force should only grant...

Whilst I certainly enjoyed the Clone Wars shorts more than the prequels, I still had some issues with them. My main beef being the overpowering portrayal of the Jedi (the same could be said of the prequels). Now I know these guys are supposed to be gifted in the use of the Force, but it kinda...

This week, we're in Pompeii, and it's just before volcano day! Donna gets to flex her Latin and try the local wardrobe, while soothsayers run around mouthing prophecy and whatnot. Evil things are afoot and under... And the Doctor must make a terrible choice... :( Terrific episode. With a...

Hmm... I've been thinking of following The Sarah Jane Adventures, but never had the time for it. I like Liz Sladen, especially since her reappearance in Season 2 and all the old series stories that featured her. But I have to ask, is this spinoff worth it? I know it's primarily aimed at kids...

Whilst looking around the web, I happened upon this apparent deleted scene from Episode 3. [amusing but not so grandma friendly link removed] Needless to say, I was like this :confused: , then this :lol:

Much as I liked Martha as well, I think it was fitting that she left when she did. Her family had just gone through a horrid experience with the Master, it'd be quite selfish of her to just go off w/ the Doctor when it was clear she needed to help them heal. That, and of course her realization...

Well, it's been quite awhile since Christmas, after the dissapointing Voyage of the Damned. One wonders if that was a sign that Doctor Who was starting to become stale. But this episode goes some way to show that there's still some fresh ideas left in the pot. :) Unlike some fans, I never...

As I've said before, while I do appreciate what Russel T Davies has done in bringing Doctor Who back to the popular mainstream, he's stumbled quite badly in penning some of the recent episodes (particularly that lame deus ex machina ending to Season 3 and of course, Voyage of the Damned). Which...

I'd be up for a Drizzt movie, provided they only adapt The Dark Elf and Icewind Dale trilogies respectively. The others I can do without, since by that time R.A. Salvatore's prose skill takes a sharp nose dive and the stories suck as a result. Don't know if Del Toro would be the right guy to...

:confused: Is he actually going to go through with those? Besides Tolkien and Lovecraft, the only other genre movie that he's been planning for is a new Tarzan film.

The first Hellboy film was a complete surprise for me, in that I had no inkling on how good it would be. Then again, I had no inkling of what Gulliermo Del Toro was capable of until I saw Pan's Labyrinth. :) Judging from that trailer, it looks like Del Toro is still employing the same visual...

How about another season of The Dresden Files? That show was miles ahead in terms of quality compared to Flash in the pan Gordon.

Don't knock The Phantom comic. The series DC published in the 80's was pretty good and should never be mentioned in the same sentence as that godawful film. But back to the list, I definitely agree with The Shadow. While technically not originally a comic book character, the film was very much...

I normally don't seek out yaoi fiction too, but I've no problem with it, provided it's tastefully done, and done in such a way that's in no way exploitative. Anyway, thanks for answering my inquiry my good man. :) Arigato gozaimasu.

I must disagree, No. 5 was definitely more up my alley. :p Despite some quibbles I've had with the series in general of late (Season 3 was a big WTF?! for me when it was all said and done), I look forward to seeing how this will all end.

Hey you're Japanese? Cool. I have a question if you don't mind. Would recommend The Guin Saga as good fantasy reading? The first three volumes are available in English, and I've read nothing but great reviews for them, yet I'm still unsure of whether to try them out. Being as they originally...
