That was odd. Although Laurie allowing herself to be kidnapped without an obvious endgame was odder - Angela wanted to save Manhattan, while knowing she wouldn't. So her (in)actions have a certain...

It's no coincidence that in the grey morality of the comic, the only uncompromising voice dies. On the show, the voices that win out are those standing up for the rule of law. While those who punish...

I tend to agree, though I'd frame it slightly differently - the lead up was so good and the intrigue so well layered that any solution would invariably be less than we hope for.

That the twists...

I suspect Manhattan will outsmart and outlive his 'death' by breaking free of his predetermined path. But such a step, albeit a predictable unpredictable behaviour must have critical repercussions.

Quite. He's a scientist, and more than that. He knows what will happen, and he's stuck in that rut, and the necessary problems it causes in those who are stuck with him. Love and "feelings" are...

There's certainly something deeper than it being just an implement to dig with, but whether or not it's deliberately obtuse or about to be revealed will be an interesting debate in a couple of days....

Oh, absolutely. I still have occasional nightmares about parsing poetry at high school... (Yes, the colour references MAY have had deep subliminal and referential context, but one most levels "green...

He wanted to create life that would be "better," so he did. And it was. But that took no time at all, and, as it was so selflessly altruistic, it was boring. And, in any case, thirty years into the...

Shoes? Not masks? You see no parallels between people who hide their true identity so they can fight society's bad influences for their own take on creating a better future and superheroes? You see...

This episode could easily be used to teach a variety of subjects in schools and universities (as could the series as a whole), specifically Time Paradoxes, Predestination, humanity's willingness to...

It's literary criticism, and at least as valid as much of the output of such fields - arguably more..


I think so. The others have all had trailers.

Echoed completely. And I think he might..

"We're in the fight now."

Gods (and anthropomorphic personifications) have always taken time off to walk among humanity, in the stories we tell of them (or even some religious texts).

It doesn't seem entirely improbable -...

And I was thinking aloud that where you have dissatisfaction, I see reasons that might cause it - and yet despite those reasons, can't get a full grip on what you're referring to.

I'm not "taking...

Wasn't that location more of a two-step extrapolation from Metropolis being East Coast, and Smallville probably being near it..?

Crisis essentially relocated Smallville to Kansas, but it'd always...

I don't see that to an extreme degree, and it seems reasonable where I do see it - very, very little seems "forced" or unlikely. If people are lampshading or discussing pertinent things, it's because...

Was the closing music for Episode 7 some version of Bowie's "Life on Mars," or did I imagine that..?

Veidt, smartest man on Earth, felt it worth a try to re-Inteinsic him. And the 7K are experimenting with teleportation, too.

Maybe somebody's logic is that if you split him up and separate the...

Notice that one the big Blue billboards had "murderer" graffiti, and of course there was the central incident of Angela's memory.

Of course the 51st state would celebrate the figure who made that...

He is the smartest man..

It's an unstated fact that successful films may spawn spin-offs. So why state it?

There are many, many instances where specifically-stated hoped-for spin-offs seem to shift focus, expectations and...

With attractive and smart and acconplished people, tgis often happens. When you're stuck in a bottle with a very limited number of people to interact with, Stockholm Syndrome et al. just make the...

Justin Whalin over Michael Landes as Jimmy Olsen. He looked younger, and had more of an air of comic relief making that swap a good change.

And, while not quite the same thing, Stargate SG-1s cast...
