    What is #9 from? I recognize John Lithgow so I'm guessing Twilight Zone The Movie.

    How is it that a show like Entertainment Tonight can taint even Iron Man video with their pep rally nonsense? The vapidness! It burns! It burns!

    Having seen the trailer for [REC]² I am definitely less worried. Things we've heard before made it sound like they were going to make a big budget schlockfest...but we're back in the same building, and it looks like some of the same people are still undead. I'm definitely intrigued, although my Italian is far too poor to understand what they're saying.

    Blink is one of my all time favorite Dr. Who episodes, but it wasn't just because of the angels. Still, unless there is a very good reason to bring them back and a stellar script, this seems like a terrible idea.

    @PlaidNinja: I agree. Considering how gimmicky they were as monsters, it seems like bringing them back is cheap.

    @evildead1971: If Moffat likes him, I'm sure we will like him. Plus, he's basing his Doctor on Chaplin. How awesome is that?

    @evildead1971: As long as they don't play on the romance. That was what was so refreshing about Donna. A long-termmale companion would be nice too, for a change.

    I'm not set against the 11th by any means. I still miss the 9th -- one series wasn't enough. David Tennant was just exceptional in the role. He nailed the breezy casual thing.

    @Atomsmoosher: I'm like the only person on Earth that's "meh" on Tennant. He was very inconsistent in tone (much of that came from the scripts, which were often uneven), and his portrayal was so: "I have ENNUI! I AM EMOtional."

    When Tennant was goofy, he was great. The rest of the time, feh.

    @Scienceofsound55: i think you mean he is basing his Doctor on Patrick Troughton the 2nd Doctor. Rob Shearman, he who wrote "Dalek." mentioned it in an interview somewhere recently.

    I have to say it's just unnatural the way I react to the quick cut showing the Alan Scott Green Lantern ring in the Smallville trailer.

    I mean, I talk about this series as a steaming pile of crap, but they show me that ring for a half second and I am SO there....
