    I decided to follow Milla Jovovich's Twitter this week, and found myself mildly horrified at how much she updates. However, her tweets prove far more useful in the greater scheme of things than most celebritweeters. As a film student, I love hearing all her inside info about what it's like to work on a huge budget film set. I've learned a lot from her already for the few days I've been following her. I may need to switch to Tweetdeck though and separate her tweets from the others I'm following because she IS a bit of a spammer. #residentevil

    SGU was great this week, one of the best episodes and I like Col. Young a lot more now. Telford is a douche for going to his wife like that, who does something like that!? #residentevil

    Oh my word oh my word....Sunday the 15th can't come soon enough!

    Also, Rodney and Eli wouldn't geek out about stuff - we really never heard Rodney talk about SciFi things like Eli does. They are both smart yes, but geeks in different ways. I could only see Rodney getting frustrated with Eli and vice versa. #residentevil

    Well, about Tekken, Jin is entering the tournament to get revenge on his father for walking out on him, and revenge on his grandfather for starting the Devil Curse, and is the bastard child of Kazuya. Every once and a while he sprouts wings and horns and runs about shooting lasers from his eyes. Then he gets the crap beat out of him by either Steve or Hworang, and goes back to being a shitty emo fighter who gets his ass kicked by everyone in the real game.

    "And he would like to have a long scene where he and Rodney McKay geek out about stuff." Ugh. Please. No. As much as I liked the old SGs, mixing SGU with the old guys just doesn't work. The acting styles are too different. I noticed the scenes this week with O'Neill were particularly jarring. #residentevil

    @PVIII: It is like night and day isn't it. Before I saw the first episode I was hoping for some crossover characters but now they can keep them. Unless of course Rodney goes really dark in an episode, but it wouldn't work. #residentevil

    Doctor Who pretty soon! Excellent!!

    Just a bit of something I found out. Planet of the Dead has already been released on DVD so thats all good. But as I browsed through HMV.co.uk for new and upcoming releases, I found a double Doctor Who DVD due out next year with both winter specials on. Now 'The Waters of Mars' looks like it has the Master on the front cover. Can anyone else please have a look at this and tell me my old eyes arnt playing tricks!!?? #residentevil

    @CoffinDodger (If the typos crap. Blame my keyboard): Actually, the finale takes place entirely in a gravel pit, with the Doctor just standing around, waiting for something to happen.

    Nothing actually does, and on his way back to the TARDIS, he trips over and oddly placed brick, bonks his head and regenerates.

    *** SGU SPOILER ***

    "And here are some pics from the episode "Time" — in which, I'm guessing, they're running out of time, until they get some more somehow."

    From [en.wikipedia.org] :

    "The crew finds an old Kino on an alien planet which has somehow recorded their future deaths."

    @Roklimber: If neither Eli nor Rush see themselves blown up while working on a console then the writers will have missed a great reference.

    @Motoki: To be fair, I think we could look at just about any episode of every sci-fi show and pick two or three elements that are obvious rip-offs of some other show.

    In any case, I'm thinking this episode sounds like it has promise. I don't see any way that the ship in all its infinite power will be able to get them out of this one, so maybe we'll see some of the characters doing something other than sitting around crapping their pants as they wait to die. #residentevil
