"The Doctor's Wife" made it cannon that Time Lords can switch genders when they regenerate, so the next Doctor should be a lady.

I just couldn't get past how Captain Jack centered everything was. That formula works on Dr. Who because the Doctor is obviously the most important character, while his companion is usually there only to give him a little humanity. Torch Wood should have been more of an ensemble piece, but...

I actually felt the season six "Magic is a metaphor for drugs" thing was kind of weird. Sure, magic can be used as an allegory for drugs, but in Buffy they used it too literally. For one thing, the fact that Willow and Amy are the only witches/sorcerers on the show with this magic problem (a...

Yeah, this was way better then his Fallout Three review because I could tell he already played the game, where as F3 felt like he made the review after listening to someone else play it. I like the commentary about how easy it is to steal shit in this game (I walked out of the Brotherhood...

I'm really glad that circumstances have forced me to wait at least another 10 days before getting New Vegas. Hopefully all the problems will be fixed by then and I can cover my ears when ever someone brings them up and say "NO WAY BEST GAME EVAR!"

So a new edition of the Samurai themed pencil and paper RPG has just hit shelves... three months ago. More recently, I was able to scrounge up the 50 bucks to get my hands on a book, and now you all get to hear my thoughts on it. Rather than repost the review in it's entirety, which would...

My hope is that soon they'll make a sequel with an equally misleading title. Something like "Strong Female Protagonist" When you play a dude.

Leverage, if it hasn't already been recommended. Best modern day Robin Hood adaptation ever.

My response I first came to The Escapist for the videos, but I stayed for the news. The Escapist is everything a modern news outlet should be; and helps prove that the Internet is not destroying news, as some would have you believe. Articles on The Escapist are well written...

I don't really understand why you spent the first 30+ seconds of a five minute review apologizing for M. Night Shyamalan (SP?) and bemoaning what an impossible task he had. It was his own damned fault for promising he could condense the first season of Avatar into a 90 minute movie. Let's...

The big draw back to me is that Newt and Hicks die off screen before the movie even starts, and Ripley doesn't even care that much. I honestly would have preferred they use different actors. But I like the rest of the movie. Maybe it isn't as good as 1 or 2, but I think it represents a good...

I've never actually played Oblivion for more than two minutes at a time (and that was just to watch Picard give an opening speech), so I can't comment on how similar they actually are. As to Fallout 1&2 being like Balder's gate, I actually wish they had been more similar. Who's idea was it...

Doesn't matter what game your playing or what genera it's in. Escort missions are always the worst.

Wait, I'm confused. Were they Al-Qaeda or Taliban? There is a difference.

The logical issues in Dr. Who aren't really about how it break's science. Hell, if we actually condemned Scifi for doing that, there would be no scifi. Even "Hard" scifi would have to be classified as pure shit eventually as our knowledge of science advances and our understanding of the universe...
