    The Forge of War

    That really doesn't cover what Keith describes at all. I can only recommend taking a look at that thread. Whether or not you agree with his position, it is enjoyable, Eberron-related reading.

    Supergirl on Smallville

    Well, Zod and the previous false Kryptonian who went by "Kara" could both fly, and I think she had a few beats explaining that he'd be able to one day. I don't recall if he remembers flying as Kal-El when Jor-El had repromgrammed him. I don't have any problem with Kara teaching Clark how to...

    Supergirl on Smallville

    I wouldn't mind seeing Kara on the show. I wish they'd be a little clearer on Kryptonians or quasi-Kryptonians with flying, or at least why some do and some don't, but display all the other powers. Clark - No, but floats in his sleep Fake Kryptonian Kara - Yes Posessed Kal-El/Clark - Yes Zod's...

    Doctor Who 2007: Blink

    In The Impossible Planet/Satan Pit, Rose couldn't use the phone once the TARDIS fell down to the center of the planet.

    Doctor Who 2007: Blink

    It seemed to make sense to me.

    Stargate Atlantis 6.1.07 "Sunday" - SPOILERS!

    I'd wondered on that. Gateworld is the only one of those resources I would consider reliable, though I was unable to find an exact reference. Certainly I would imagine she'd run more, but I'd certainly like to see the exact article.

    Stargate Atlantis 6.1.07 "Sunday" - SPOILERS!

    I have not seen any indication that it was a money thing. Do you have any references? My understanding is that Amanda Tapping had a pre-existing contract for next year, and since SG-1 was ending, it was within the bounds of that contract to move her over to Atlantis.

    Heroes for Hire: Marvel's new hentai title!

    The warning usually indicates that the views are not representative of the company's opinions, yes. Would the deleted scene you found distasteful and unworthy of inclusion have been completely all right if there had been a warning that it contained foul language? I was mostly curious because...

    Heroes for Hire: Marvel's new hentai title!

    I understand about any scenes within the movie itself, but when talking about DVD extra features, I suppose I'd question where precisely that line is drawn. I enjoy watching the commentary tracks to movies, where the language can get a little blue. Would that cross your line as well?

    Doctor Who 2007: 42

    I don't actually think there were many Saxon mentions in Torchwood, save perhaps a few "Vote Saxon" posters about. I just ment that while Series 1's "Bad Wolf" was something that most casual viewers could miss (and certainly there are references to it that keep popping up in both shows), Series...

    Doctor Who 2007: 42

    I've found the Mr Saxon references to be pretty minimal, and up to this point, confined to the episodes in present day. Last year's Torchwood references were much more ham-handed in my opinion.

    Doctor Who, Episode 6: "The Lazarus Experiment"

    It showed the inner doors of the Tardis towards the end, which are white.

    Doctor Who, Episode 6: "The Lazarus Experiment"

    The trailer was for the rest of the season. I don't believe Jack is actually back until near the end of the run.

    Knights of the Dinner Table Magazine

    I stopped reading Mr. Antweiller's "Gamer's Rant on the Movies" articles after the first few. Now all I really need to know, I get from seeing the title and his name attached to the article. Most of the rest of the magazine is pretty solid, though I buy it for the comics.

    Doctor Who 2007, Episode 3: Gridlock (Spoiler Alert!)

    No problem. New Earth isn't one of my favourites either, though I do like some scenes.

    Doctor Who 2007, Episode 3: Gridlock (Spoiler Alert!)

    In "New Earth", the Doctor mentions that he'd only met the Face of Boe the one time previously. In addition, in the same episode, the Face tells the Doctor that they will meet "For the third time. For the last time." So in this case, going by the show's internal mentions, yes it is a stretch.

    Wizard seeking Wizard

    What sort of specialist is the PC? (I don't have Complete Mage handy, but I seem to remember either spell focus in the actual school or being a base specialist is necessary. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.) While I don't think that the NPC Mentor's specialization should be the only...

    Doctor Who 2007, Episode 1: "Smith and Jones" (Spoilers likely)

    I've been watching some of the early Third Doctor episodes recently, and I find I quite like Liz Shaw as a companion, though Martha does not particularly remind me of her.

    Doctor Who 2007, Episode 1: "Smith and Jones" (Spoilers likely)

    Might not be the best analogy. Among the colleges and chapters that governed Time Lord society, Doctor and the Master were both Prydonians, a school known for producing renegades. The Rani was also a member of this order.

    3 Years of Unearthed Arcana

    I keep attempting to use the defense bonus and armor as DR rules, but every campaign where they're mentioned is somehow derailed before it starts for unrelated reasons. I've tried out action points, alternate specialists, a few of the class varients, and the generic classes. All seemed to work...
