    I wish that the writers for Star Trek would stop doing interviews and talking about writing and actually do some writing. Just a thought.

    I'm sick of Orci and Kurzman. They seem to be dead stuck on making pastiche of great science fiction works, some right, some really really cheesy. And frankly, I didn't even like the Star Trek reboot, and if they're saying that they are going rip more ideas off of classics, then I don't think Star Trek 2.0 - 2 is going to make me happier.

    Granted, dramatic pieces of work are often a repeat in some form or another, but ugh. Star Trek 2.0 - 1 was so frustrating.

    @Pessimippopotamus: Amen. I liked Star Trek but it's an incomprehensible mess entirely because the script is overly written and ill-considered from top to bottom. It's saved by mood, tone, and a few revelatory ideas (a new timeline, destroying Vulcan, Spock/Uhura, new Kirk with a chip on his shoulder), but when you watch the deleted scenes, you realize that they wrote a 3 hour movie and never edited before they shot the thing.

    I'm so over "FlashForward" - it's dead to me. I just watched Friday's ep this morning (my avatar name is hint why) and every time Fines makes that whiny little "I'm hurt and about to cry" face I just wanna slap him into the next week.

    @Julius Seizure - Gall Bladder Free: I really disliked his character from the get go and I do like him as a actor in other things. I found his strange accent distracting. When I don't care whether a character lives or dies, they (writer/director/actor) haven't done their job.

    I hope that your recovery is going well!

    Oh, JJ Abrams. I get it, Greg Grunberg is like your bestest pal and all. But he's no Bruce Campbell. If you desperately need to find a way to shoehorn him in, maybe it's best to just give it up.

    @jbq: Well, it's not like a redhsirt is a big role. And every Star Trek movie needs one, so why not cast someone you like? I don't think you can call that shoehorning. There wuld probably need a redshirt or two anyway.

    I have no idea whether this is intentional or not (or if it is intentional, whether it is just an homage or an indicator of where the plot might be going) but in that first promo trailer for 'V', 'New Promo #2' for the season finale "It's Only The Beginning", Maurice Chestnut (as Visitor Ryan Nichols) is first seen pointing a pistol at (and then killing?) someone practically standing on the number "86" (the yellow parking bay number, so prominently featured) and then, in turn, standing on the same spot, whilst 'Erica Evans' points a pistol at him and threatens to kill him.

    Those with a love of the vernacular, will be familiar with the meaning of "86" (to get rid of or kill) [en.wikipedia.org])#Origin and those with a love of science fiction films, will know that this usage was popularised by the alien Kreton in 1960's 'Visit to a Small Planet' [en.wikipedia.org] .

    The alien (played by Jerry Lewis) activated his special powers with a series of number commands.

    The power to kill being initiated by pointing his finger and saying "86".

    Both the gesture and the associated command entered popular usage immediately thereafter.

    Could it be possible, that the script writers of 'V', are intentionally referencing a science fiction film, written by no less a literary giant than Gore Vidal?

    Seriously?

    'V'?

    Is that possible?

    Awesome spoiler morning!

    Megan Fox - an awesome part? Hmmm so she did lose a starring role next to Shia. Perhaps, I'm reading into it too much.

    Possibly more Jill Valentine! yippee!

    Chuck Season 3 - awesome. I am looking forward to it.

    @FrankenPC: But black holes are all kinds of powerful ... they can even suck in light.

    I'd say Fox is more like a gnat. Something that's insignificant, can be swatted away, but keeps coming back to annoy.

    @Woodsie: I can't believe I'm even saying this. I watched Transformers 2. It's a hollow piece of cuhrap to be sure. But, if Fox wasn't in it, it would have been soo much better. I just cringe every time I see her with her bizarre plastic makeup.

    On the flip side, I just saw Jennifer's body and I was impressed with some of the scenes she did. Like the blood scene in the kitchen. The way she smiled. It's like...she really is a demon.

    "says Bay, who's working on the script now. "

    Something about this just strikes me as being wrong. Bay? Scripts? Who's he trying to fool?

    I kind of wish V wasn't ending so soon. It's been nice having a Tuesday-night-show. Maybe I can use the spare time to catch up on SG:U.

    I can't believe Spencer hasn't put a bullet in his head yet or tried to kill himself in some other way. I will say Greer is becoming one of my favorite characters on SGU, much more than I thought he would.

    Seeing Ray Wise in anything makes me miss Reaper that much more, I freakin' loved that show.

    Well well. Megan Fox is back. Thats not a problem for me, shes great eye candy....the only thing that worrys me is that early rumours have pointed towards the third film being on Cybertron. Does this mean she'll spend most of her time in a spacesuit. And will Le-buff finally get to wear Daniels famous circa 1986 Transformers the Movie, Transforming Spacesuit!!?? We can only hope!

    Cant wait for Doctor Who Dreamland. Looks great.

    Im reluctant with V. Big childhood memory right there. Fingers crossed.

    SGU...I aint seen anything here in the UK yet. I hear good things so im looking forward really soon.

    Also.......Has anyone else seen the Babyliss advert in the top right of this web page?????? Why oh why has Zod from Superman agreed to have a shave!?? Whhhhyyyy!!

    As a huge Transformers geek, I dont want a "human" story next time around. Give me more of the robots as characters. Putting Sam in the center worked the first time because of the reveal factor. I didnt care about his story scond time around. That's why I saw the 1st one 5 times in the theatre, and the 2nd once.
