Yeah that Doctor Who animation is awful. Its like someone tried to animate it in the style of Thunderbirds, but even Thunderbirds was better than that. Compare it to Clone Wars... and well. Sheesh. #startrek

Roland Emmerich says he's "against organized religion", whatever that means. Considering that he's making a massive fantasy movie about blowing up the whole planet, I gather he's not exactly a big fan of the Earth, anything that happens on it or anyone who lives there. #startrek

Ok, so I'm not much of a Supernatural nut (only watched the last few seasons), but whatever happened to that redheaded Angel who Dean slept with? I really liked her (and yes, I do realize she's on Mad Men)... #startrek

@PVIII: She is still occasionally around but she became an angel again so went back up to heaven. She has popped in once before and I think she is supposed to again. #startrek

Watching that Doctor Who clip makes me really want to play The Sims. (Yes, that was a comment on the shitty animation). #startrek

Roland Emmerich is a dolt. BTW, as long as we're destroying sacred "organized" religious monuments, why don't we destroy sacred "organized" religious monuments like the Hollywood Walk of Stars (or whatever you call it) and those dumb statues of Elvis and Michael Jackson (I personally think Elvis's stone head floating down the Potomac or something would be hysterical), or the various monuments and museums to sports stars and football hall of famers, and we can pull down all those lame obelisks and burn all the gold and platinum records every cherished musical artist has ever had in a glorious lava pit where the Hollywood sign used to be.

See, I can be unreasonably threatened by inanimate objects of culture too.

Also BTW, it's about as possible to re-cast Khan Noonien Singh as it is to recast Colonel Kurtz.

And WTF is with every Sci Fi TV show and ripping off BSG ideas? No more Bob Dylan songs to speaketh coded mysterious! Lets try some Radiohead instead.

WTFBBQ. #startrek

Hopping on the "Oh my god, that Doctor Who animation looks horrible!" bandwagon.

I've seens PS1 games with better animation (and I'm talking the $7 bargain bin ones with stupid holographic covers that nobody likes)

I hope whatever program they used was never intended to render living beings, since they've obviously massively failed at capturing any human facial expressions other than "surprised" and "angry"

If the finished animation sucks this bad, I think I'll just play the audio portion and pretend it's a 10th Doctor audio play. #startrek

This is exactly what I was thinking...

Lie back, close your eyes, and think of this as the 10th Doctor's inevitable Big Finish Audio pilot. #startrek

Visions Of Johanna by Dylan

Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
We sit here stranded, though we're all doin' our best to deny it
And Louise holds a handful of rain, temptin' you to defy it
Lights flicker from the opposite loft
In this room the heat pipes just cough
The country music station plays soft
But there's nothing, really nothing to turn off
Just Louise and her lover so entwined
And these visions of Johanna that conquer my mind

In the empty lot where the ladies play blindman's bluff with the key chain
And the all-night girls they whisper of escapades out on the "D" train
We can hear the night watchman click his flashlight
Ask himself if it's him or them that's really insane
Louise, she's all right, she's just near
She's delicate and seems like the mirror
But she just makes it all too concise and too clear
That Johanna's not here
The ghost of 'lectricity howls in the bones of her face
Where these visions of Johanna have now taken my place

Now, little boy lost, he takes himself so seriously
He brags of his misery, he likes to live dangerously
And when bringing her name up
He speaks of a farewell kiss to me
He's sure got a lotta gall to be so useless and all
Muttering small talk at the wall while I'm in the hall
How can I explain?
Oh, it's so hard to get on
And these visions of Johanna, they kept me up past the dawn

Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while
But Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues
You can tell by the way she smiles
See the primitive wallflower freeze
When the jelly-faced women all sneeze
Hear the one with the mustache say, "Jeeze
I can't find my knees"
Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
But these visions of Johanna, they make it all seem so cruel

The peddler now speaks to the countess who's pretending to care for him
Sayin', "Name me someone that's not a parasite and I'll go out and say a prayer for him"
But like Louise always says
"Ya can't look at much, can ya man?"
As she, herself, prepares for him
And Madonna, she still has not showed
We see this empty cage now corrode
Where her cape of the stage once had flowed
The fiddler, he now steps to the road
He writes ev'rything's been returned which was owed
On the back of the fish truck that loads
While my conscience explodes
The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
And these visions of Johanna are now all that remain #startrek

Is this a special kind of low-budget animation? Was it done by robot monkeys perhaps? I know traditional animation is expensive, but crikey, sometimes you just don't bother if you can't afford the real thing... #startrek

My problem with the animated doctor who episodes, (Infinite Quest, and now Dreamland) is that as much as i want to respect them, the first one looked like a damn e-surance commercial/Flash animation, and this one looks like code-fucking-lyoko. why cant we get something like that badass looking Anime? granted the animation in that was super choppy, but it at least looked like some time was put into it. Dreamland looks like they just used the computers that made beast wars. not as much of a compliment as it should be. #startrek

Pardon me if this question sounds juvenile but why is every guy in Twilight hotter than the lead? Isn't that a golden rule? #startrek
