  1. The Man in the High Castle. Great Stuff! Can't wait for Season 2.
  2. Flash / Supergirl crossover confirmed. http://comicbook.com/2016/02/03/the-flash-supergirl-crossover-episode-titled-worlds-finest-multi/
  3. That's good to hear.
  4. I found him to be quite boring.
  5. They should send a Rover to the moon to confirm all the stuff up there is there.
  6. Fiddlesticks! I thought I was beginning at the beginning as Dickens suggests, i'll have to stop watching the series until i've seen that now, the slightly autistic side of me will allow nothing else. Thank you for the notification however, i'm enjoying this series rather too much i'd say, quite enthralled. I highly suggest watching the Gathering before continuing. I did the same when I first watched Season 1 all those years ago and I remember characters referring to events that I hadn't seen before. It was a little confusing and when I looked on the internet, I was like 'damn, I've missed the pilot'. And there's some really important story elements that set up the series. Once you watch the pilot, a lot of things will make sense. Sinclair, Garibaldi, Kosh, Delenn, G'Kar, Londo are all in it and establishes their characters. For some reason they leave it off the Season 1 box set but it really should be part of it as a pre-season pilot episode for this very thing with people not knowing there's a missing episode.
  7. Nonek, did you watch 'The Gathering' before Season 1? For some reason, they leave it off the Season 1 box set but it's the pilot of the show that was aired back in 1993 and Season 1 started in 1994.
  8. New Caledonia or Fiji
  9. Westworld (1973). Been a while since I watched this. Not sure if I could stomach the sequel Futureworld but I'll probably watch it again. Mainly re-watched it for the TV Series that's coming out this year.
  10. So what's your opinion on this?
  11. First two episodes of the new X-Files. Great stuff. Can't fault either of them. Next week's episode looks like it'll be good too.
  12. I think Babylon 5 is one of the best sci-fi shows I've seen. I've re-watched it a few times.
  13. DC's Legends of Tomorrow. Thought it was brilliant. I can see I'm really going to enjoy this with all the comic book and history references. Also, I liked how it ties into Arrow when they find the VHS tape of the Professor researching Vandal Savage from the 70s.
  14. Heroes Reborn is really Season 5 but set a few years later as they refer to events in previous seasons as well as the Season 4 finale. Also, a few characters (actors) do return from the original series. But like the previous seasons, the quality declined and this was no exception to Heroes Reborn. If anything, it did put closure on the Season 4 finale and finishes off the original series.
  15. A just and humane outcome, methinks with Heroes Reborn being cancelled. Leave superheroes to the experts (Marvel & DC), Mr Kring!
  16. The main problem I find with Heroes Reborn is the ending of the latest episode feels like nothing was achieved in the whole season. One last episode to watch and it's done.
  17. So there's no questions at all for you. There's a point being made, however thinly. I wouldn't support it as being in good taste. However, Tacky or in bad taste? Considering the picture of the dead kid was already plastered all over the world to drive a political and humanitarian agenda. The taste had already been fouled. Oh and you didn't answer my question with the link I posted whether using the dead boy was tacky. I'll post the link again. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/aylan-kurdis-death-recreated-30-6415214
  18. Are you outraged Sakai? Or are you just jumping to conclusions as always.
  19. The question mark is the key. They are asking the question. They aren't saying this kid will grow up and become a rapist. The complete opposite of it in fact. They are the ones asking the question to all those demonstrating at the moment against helping refugees and closing borders etc, trying to justify it by painting all refugees with the same paintbrush as the disgusting minority who committed disgraceful acts in Cologne. They are asking the question, "so they are all the same are they? Well what about Aylan? Would he have been the same?" The poor boy whos heartbreaking image was splashed across the entire western media to personalise and underline the plight of the innocents in that region of the world, drawing almost universal sympathy across the western world. Maybe its just trying to make people think about the consequences of their actions. If all we ever see is opinions we agree with we never are encouraged to consider the opposing viewpoint. If people want to post dead toddlers all over the media to push the immigration campaign, why can't those who are against it do the same. I thought it was a cheap shot when it originally came out and was not shocking or provocative because there's death all over the world. I only viewed it as the media pests trying to use pictures of dead toddlers to score some ratings and sell papers. In the full context, it raises more questions than anything, about many things. People will choose to be outraged or applaud it, but they would be missing the point. It doesn't count if it doesn't push your agenda, eh.
  20. Was the use of the dead boy in things like the below link tacky? http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/aylan-kurdis-death-recreated-30-6415214 If you are outraged by this cartoon, then equally you should have been outraged by the used of a dead boy as propaganda. Many lives could have been saved had people not been encouraged to risk themselves on rickety boats. Especially when they were already safe in Turkey. People who are outraged by this cartoon are missing the point. And there's a lot of questions the cartoon asks.
  21. That's one thing I need to do today. Start getting things together for my tax return in 6 months. Will sit down and start sorting stuff out this afternoon.
  22. I didn't realise Bowie's son is Duncan Jones. Film Director of Moon and the upcoming Warcraft movie.
  23. What are the justifications for it?
  24. Yes, quite shocked with the news. Have been listening to Bowie for the last few months. He obviously didn't want the world to know he was fighting Cancer. Just like Freddie Mercury with his disease. RIP Bowie (Ninja'd by Meshugger with the video with Freddie Mercury.}
