    Some things that mildly annoy me with Doctor Who....

    Some things that mildly annoy me with Doctor Who. But, I know they are inevitable because the show has to appeal to a current day audiences.

    The Doctor, although he is a time traveler, never runs...
  2. My memory is vague here but wasn't Dark Willow's...

    My memory is vague here but wasn't Dark Willow's ability to destroy the Earth based on releasing whatever held back the beings in the Hellmouth from rising up?

    Both of them had decent firepower,...
  3. True but Ock has to do it before Wolverine cuts...

    True but Ock has to do it before Wolverine cuts off all four arms while blocking Ock's attacks. Ock could win but I'd rate it one out of ten.
  4. Just to briefly get into the trans discussion...

    Just to briefly get into the trans discussion that Dalak and Mets are having. I will politely insist upon calling it a discussion.

    When I first became aware of how much of an issue trans was...

    Off the cuff, one of them warps reality on a fairly localized scale. The other travels realities and challenges the MCU Doctor Strange. That said, not sure on reaction times and durability or how...
  6. Something is lost if Magneto is not a Holocaust...

    Something is lost if Magneto is not a Holocaust survivor or the Punisher a Vietnam veteran. Iraq just generally doesn't have the same bite or historical significance.

    Anyway, if Magneto has a...

    I was referring to the Nicholas Hammond version from the 1970s live action television series, not to the Tom Holland movies.
  8. I had heard they wanted him in "No Way Home"...

    I had heard they wanted him in "No Way Home" because they wanted every live action version, but Universal is asking a ridiculous amount of a share in the profits to use a character most of the...

    As a corollary to that, people travel back in time and the people back then don't catch their diseases or they the people from back in time. I do realize that for the sake of getting on with the...

    When Mel Brooks was asked if he thought they could do "Blazing Saddles" today, he said "Are you kidding?" Looking and seeing how much "D'Jango" was ripped for using the N word, I think Brooks...

    It seems Elvis would probably have agreed with you. People who knew Elvis said that whenever people said he was the King of Rock and Roll, it would irritate him and he would say Chuck Berry was the...

    Just saw it on HBO. I suppose that's the problem in general. Not seeing it at the theater.

    It has weaknesses, true, mostly Manta suddenly becoming secondary at the end. But he was what he was in...

    True. I'm sneaking the Orville into this because they actually addressed these sorts of things clearly and directly. Using it as a basis for what Star Trek never directly explains, the replicators,...

    It's one example and one head of HR. Then again, in today's culture, most HR departments are going to protect the company by slanting towards what would be considered left policies. Even if some...

    That last, I think would cause a flood of people demanding to be grandfathered in. Alas, IF we count "Picard", we even have Raffi remarking that Picard doesn't "get it" because he grew up rich in...

    There are mixed messages like when Ben Sisko tells Cassidy Yates that, in his first year at Starfleet Academy, he transported home every night and she responds that he must have used a month's worth...

    I would say I could picture Don Rickles saying stuff like Gillis says. It's just a different time than when Rickles said such things. But there doesn't sound like there's any malice in it. It's...

    But, sometimes, people lose their jobs for "the Cause". The early strikes and formations of unions are an example. Of course, that was to help people, not cut them down.

    I'm also not a fan of...

    Regarding the Gina Carano situation and the greater subject of free speech and bias, as a liberal, I find her remarks and attitudes abhorrent and/ or ignorant as in lacking facts and information. But...

    Yes. I guess I didn't say that clearly enough. She didn't just refuse. She went on a posting spree ridiculing trans people. I have heard also that the Disney company even asked her to stop. They gave...

    I think it's interesting in that it is indicative of what's happening in our country right now.

    I've been told that there are certain times in history where social attitudes change so drastically...

    Her argument seems to be that she compared the treatment of conservatives in this country to the beginnings of Naziism and then Disney proved her right in how they reacted, spread opinions she...

    Galaxy Quest was the one I liked the most.

    Loved the scene where he's saying Tim Allen's character is losing touch with reality. While he's saying it, he's sitting at home, still wearing his...

    Well, he had the power to turn into anything. So, when he was supposedly in his room, sleeping, I suppose he turned into ozone, and left while invisible. But, even that doesn't work because, when he...
