    Something tells me AltWalt will be quite sane and quite scary.

    Also he'll hate to be called AltWalt. And he can probably read this somehow so I'd better stop tyf=y3ht0y8op;/////////////////////////////////

    @Makidian: Something tells me that Alt-Walt might be instrumental in the Alt-U's war against Our-U, motivated by the theft of his son. Something along the lines of "You stole my son, now I'm going to destroy your universe."

    As if Marvel actually cares about Fahir returning to the Iron Man sequel. They replaced an actor for a core character, they can easily replace a minor character, who's undoubtedly a henchman.

    Am I the only one exited about the Game of Thrones HBO series? I ask because I don't see much news for it outside of George R.R. Martin fan sites. Maybe it's outside the more sci-fi oriented scope of io9.com.

    Anyway, they finished up photography in Scotland and Morocco for the pilot yesterday, and everything I'm hearing makes it sound like it was a very positive shoot. That said, it could be as late as March (though it'll likely be sooner) before we hear whether or not HBO is ordering more episodes.

    *Fingers crossed*

    @atrus123: No, I'm totally looking forward to it. To be honest, I never read the books for some reason, but when I first heard about the series, I was instantly intrigued. Hope HBO doesn't screw it up...(Sorry, I'm still bitter about Deadwood & Rome.)

    Hmm, John Noble is a Kiwi. For some reason I thought he was a Brit. And Anna Torv is...what exactly is that accent? I hear a bit of the down under but it sounds like a mishmash...

    Three hours of "Chuck" in one week? Oh, momma! Bring it on!

    I'm trusting the writers to keep Chuck (the character) likable and relatable even though the Intersect has the potential to make him an action hero god.

    @ProfessorSara: I'm a little concerned with all the "new romantic interest" action that's supposed to be happening, but like you I'm going to trust in the writers.

    Plus I'll watch pretty much anything with Adam Baldwin and Zachary Levi.

    @Bootknife-Jackson: We'd have to leave the wife-beater and the angry one out of the team, and it'd have to be Ultimate Iron Man if we were in character (teetotal Tony in 616 after all).

    Seriously though, that would be great. When leaving/drinking time arrived - "Avengers Assemble!". And if you have a designated driver, they have to be Jarvis.

    It's funny. With the Mad Men season finale Sun night all I kept thinking was, "oh poo... there goes my Sunday night show." And then in the credits they played a promo for the Prisoner next week in the time slot and I perked up.

    I'm trying not to compare it to the original but all the interviews with the guy in charge just fill me with huge dread. But Ian McKellen I'm sure will bring it and I just want to hear him say, "hello number 6, how is every little thing?" It'll make it all worth wile. #residentevil

    I listened to one of the Avatar TV ads instead of watching (was doing something else) and YIKES. The dialogue was so, so, so bad and trite.

    We knew that before, but hearing it for myself without having the pretty visual for distraction... ouch. #residentevil

    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
