kevinjwoods commented on Doomed Android Love Story On Infinite Repeat, at 6:55 AM on May 14 Didn't i read somewhere that she had denied that it was Sf in the same way that Rowling denies thst HP is fantasy.Plus there is the fact that nobody has mentioned yet that the author is herself gay so is more likely to write about gay characters than would a hetero author.Its still crap in that way all Sf done by Literate authors tend to be I mean I can't be the only one who read The Road by CMC and preferred The Postman or The stand. more »

kevinjwoods commented on Will Steven Spielberg Eviscerate "Ghost in the Shell"?, at 7:19 AM on Apr 15 Maybe we should all wait and see, he could suddenly find himself back in the days of Jaws and Duel when he was really great, maybe Jamie Moss will suddenly become the greatest scriptwriter around, a william Goldman for this generation, maybe They will go acting wise for people who can bring the characters to life as they are in the original anime and manga rather than going for who is hot this week, maybe they will get it exactly right and have such a big hit that faithfully copying anime becomes the next big thing and all those movies escape development hell........Memo: must remember to look up charles fort's Book of the damned and find out exactly when a pig flew over wales. more »

kevinjwoods commented on Seven Signs of the Rise of Fan Glam, at 7:15 AM on Apr 11 Personally I have never found that being told I look like Peter Jackson has done anything for my love life, although I did once meet a woman in a supermarket who told me that her sister (who I had met once) had my picture on her fridge for a year.I also have an genuine ewok which is embarrassing for a guy in his 30s to admit i admit.And what about Geekdar where you can spot a real geek across a crowded room, example when i went to see transformers (at the worlds tallest cinema apparently) in the elevator someone spontaneously mentioned about how she had spent years waiting for this to happen somehow knowing i would grok it. more »

kevinjwoods commented on Guess Who's Back On Heroes Next Year!, at 6:35 AM on Apr 1 Just rerad the synopsises of both the comic (on Wikipedia) and the movie and they could be of two different stories, it feels to me that itt is just one rewrite (to change the names and first ten minutes) away from an original movie, and who on earth reads "all the world's super-villains decided to band together in 1986 and use their vast collective powers - including mad science, magic and mind control - to eliminate all the world's superheroes and rewrite reality in their own dark image" and thinks that "this team lives by an ancient, unbreakable code: carry out the death orders given by fate itself". more »

kevinjwoods commented on Is The End Near For David Tennant On Doctor Who?, at 5:43 AM on Mar 7 I wont believe any rumours about david Tennant leaving until his dad tells the Paisley daily Express about it, which is the local paper which generally has up to sdate news from the families of DT and Paolo Nuttini and anyone else famous from Paisley.And I cant quite see them getting rid of half the cast of Torchwood they would be as well creating a new series as doing that especially if they are adding MArtha to the mix. more »
