    In reply to "Fourth Kind" Insider: Yes, It Was Totally Fake
    It's a movie Annalee, not a documentary. Documentaries don't star Leeloo DallasMultiPass either.

    What is it with you and dead horses lately anyway? What was it about this flick that got stuck in your craw so? #thefourthkind

    May I suggest Chew?
    Chew centers around Tony Chu is a police detective who is "cibopathic," meaning he gets psychic impressions from whatever he eats.

    Ya know, I would watch this movie if it was all about Frankie. Vampires need to move over for the REAL movie monsters. #firelight

    In reply to US Armed Forces Listened for Messages from Mars
    So funny that it was Amherst College that did this. Though considering that we now have an Extraterrestrial Studies course at Hampshire, maybe they should hand us over the reins the next time Mars comes back. #mars

    It's about how Megan Fox is a monster, not eye candy

    So, a documentary, then? #jennifersbody

    I can't believe no one's mentioned Doctor Who. A franchise built entirely on the idea of the lead character's undeath. #startrek

    @gigshaft: In fairness, that's probably because he hasn't died yet - the regeneration has (almost) always been part of the canon, so it's not like he's apparently died as William Hartnell and then been reborn next season as Patrick Troughton.

    I see where you're coming from, but this is too much of a cheating death device to be included as a faux death one, imho. #startrek

    Re-naming this thread "There's Something About Kenny" in honor of the most-dead cartoon character ever. Even if I hate the show, Kenny has the title. #startrek

    On the topic of resurrection, has anyone else been keeping track of how many times Sam and Dean die in Supernatural? I watched it once, then re-watched them with my husband (had to introduce him to the show because of the cars and music) and the second time through I almost fell out of my chair laughing every time a Winchester died. It's like a drinking game. #startrek

    In reply to Are Nanoparticles Unsafe?
    Can we get a "duh"? When carbon nanotubes first came out they did a study showing the little buggers would kill *every* kind of cell on contact. Great for disinfecting stuff, not so great if you ever intend to use that surface again later. #nanoparticles
