    Sorry Obama on a Unicorn. You can not win against RoboCop on a Unicorn.



    Of course, both of them are easily beaten by Jack Bauer on a Unicron.

    @SinisterRouge:


    Yeah I'm waiting until the end of the season to give an opinion about Dollhouse. So far, it's exactly as expected. Simple, trite and easy for new viewers to follow. After the first eps, I think Joss will step it up.


    ...or I hope so.

    Oh i get it... just because big-name actors want to be a part of sci-fi, it kind of ruins the whole "I'm a bigger sci-fi fan than anyone and I heard about this series/book/movie FIRST" type trope?


    I think it's great that better-known actors are getting into the genre. It's been a long and arduous road, my sci-fi geeky loving compadres, but our time is now upon us that the world will recognize our prowess and wish to join in our fantasy worlds!! So why is this bad?

    This is nothing particularly new.


    Derek Jacobi has already featured in at least two Doctor Who audio adventures prior to his role in Utopia, and Jason Isaacs has been in a ton of sci-fi/fantasy roles in his time.

    Shouldn't sexy actors be a requirement of sexy sci-fi?
