Star Trek is not as expansive a universe as Star Wars....
Hmmmm... Star Trek doesn't have as expansive a universe as Star Wars....
@PenseurQuelconque: I actually always thought Shae was slightly smug and superior in the books. But then I don't trust her.
@volim: Seriously? You've got zombie undead, dragons, the summoning of the dead to maintain another's life, (and the madness that starts occurring with Stannis in the next set of books).

It doesn't stop being fantasy just because it's good. By that token, Soprano's isn't a crime drama because it's about family dysfunction.
Yet again, we encounter "what happens when you ask British people to take a survey seriously."
To the naysayers: Go back and watch TNG Season 1. Done that? Right.
First season is not where it's good. It's where it works out *what's* good.
@Zuldim: Can't tell without reading it. I will say that Paul Dini's Detective comics were the absolute best jumping on for Batman newbies, so hopefully they'll draw on that.

(That TPB is Batman: Detective & Batman: Private Casebook BTW. A pain to get hold of, but totally worth it. The Christmas issue is possibly the best Tim Drake comic ever).
@arthurborko: It doesn't mean terrorists can't do damage. It means they can't predict the damage they'd do, and are in fact significantly less of a risk than someone spilling some coffee on an active socket.
@fhbals: Pretty strong that lit'l thing.
@aak7268: Oh, that's just 100% win
Going to see it. Not going to see it in 3D. Problem solved.
Naomi Novik just did what when what? *WOOSH* BOOKSTORE.
These videos don't seem to be working.
@deworde: After all, those PSP games can be tricky
@Say Waaah?: The App Store... THEY'RE BURIED 2,300 FEET UNDERGROUND IN TUNNELS YOU MORON. I'd imagine the connection isn't great.
@Qwyn: "I don't know about you, but I lead a busy life and my time is valuable."
You're posting on the io9 comments thread about No Ordinary Family, a show you didn't even like. Forgive me if I didn't automatically assume you were run off your feet saving the planet.

"The offer is only good for the first 50,000 Americans. Do you want our friends from around the world to miss out on this opportunity? How about people in general who don't make the first 50,000? "
Firstly, UK born and bred, so... yeah, I'm one of the people who's not going to see it this way.
Secondly, I believe there are these things called "televisual mechanisms", which allow you to extract the picturewords from the gogglebox and display them on some form of display. Said imageaudioings are paid for by ads.
And finally, my problem wasn't with "not going to take advantage of the offer". It was with, "just going to rip them off instead."
@konoha_whitefang: And Wolverine Origins is an appalling piece of rubbish.
@konoha_whitefang: No, Fast And Furious. The Fast and The Furious was quite good. Its fourquel? Not so much.
@timestep: Ah yes, "I don't like it and didn't watch it, so we'll ignore the literally hundreds of thousands of people who do". I actually went to see it. It's pretty good. The fight scenes are cool, the directions' good, and they do the best they can with the concepts.
