No book-just podcasts. I sped through the book during the night--but fell asleep before the ending. They leave much for a series to follow.
I do read alot. but I've also been reading for a ga-zillion years, so I've accumulated a lot of books to add to my list.So, I tend to add reviews in big chunks. I'll click on an author a mark everything of his that I've read.
I review a lot of collections of comics, which I've also been reading since Jesus was a toddler and in the last decade they've collecting a lot of comic series into book editions, so there's a ton more to add.
All the money I save by not smoking, drinking and not caring what kind of car I drive goes into buying books and comics.
and occasional presents for my wife, so she doesn't kill me for filling the house with books and comics.
No problem. I'm always glad to make new friends with people that read, as well as share my wisdom about books.For some reason, with your nickname, I picture you wearing a cape and mask when you do reviews.
Curses, you're on to us! We are all aliens. Now, I'm gonna have to uase the mind probe on you.This may sting a little and you'll loose the ability to remember TV show theme songs....
Or it could be we are all just too lazy or technically challenged to post a picture. You trying to tell me the picture you use on good reads is the same one as on your driver's license?
Have not seen the mini yet, but it just became available on netflix. Heard good things about it and managed to avoid any spoilers.I've heard that they have announced Torchwood season 4, but so far no cast members have been signed. Not a good feeling.
Wait and see.
by accident i saw the last episode of torchwood mini series--it ripped me apart inside like nothg ever has before! They broke all the rules and went for broke and i mean broke! I sobbed near the end and so now am 180 about not trusting your gov't and now supporting the NRA. I never thought a quasi sci fi series would shake me to me inner core--but it was the modern version of the Brown coats 1938--only they were herding children this time. My hubby been for this since i met him, and i never have been--now--i still shaky from watching just that one episode--crap if i seen the whole series! They leave you thinking there is no torchwood left--surpisrng how popular it is!Saw the new Dr Who extended episode--she would have been the best of best companions ever!!!! backpack! backpack! The lady was grand! The Doctor stupid!
They could do a spin-off on her alone!!!
I'm not a big fan of top ten lists to begin with, as all they ever do is start arguments.But, come on 'Best books ever' for a title? Bit like walking into a redneck bar wearing a 'Nascar sucks!' t-shirt.
Not sure how I feel about this.Redesign looks too 'Snoopy', though it is cool he can fly. Seems like they are aiming for younger audience, but the production values are all Mighty Morphin Power Rangers level.
Still think it'd be better if they'd just let him do more on 'Sarah Jane'.
http://www.pcworld.com/article/160732...You need to smell nice! I like the line for the Red myself! :)
much as I'm not a huge fan of these kind of lists, it gives me hope for humanity that every one of Ann Coulter's books made the list and most were in the top fifty.
Fear not! As far as I know, he is only showing up for the special and part of the plot is wether or not he really is a future regeneration of the Doctor or some kind of cosmic fanboy imposter.rumor says Patterson Joseph ( the black guy) is still the front runner. Not sure if he qualifies as a cute Doctor though. They are supposed to make the officeal announcement during the Christmas special!
somewhat christmas /Doctor Who related: my wife wanted me to move a couple Doctor Who action figures I have displayed by my desk, to make room for christmas decorations. So, as a compromise, I put down cotton and a tiny tree, so now it looks like Cristopher Eccelston and K-9 have just landed somewhere snowy and festive. Been telling my kids I now need a bad guy alien to make the scene complete. I'm hoping Santa brings me a Dalek or a Judoon.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/Think that is a pic of a white guy for the next doc and he is goofie looking-the hotness it gone-damn!
Thanks and you guys have a merry Christmas too.You think you're funny with that 'Doctor/ Donna kissing' stuff...!
Just wanted to stop in and wish you the best of the holiday season! Merry Christmas!-NoranHammond,IN :)
Doctor and Donna k-i-s-s-i-n-g! lol as I said it is not romantic!
The more trailers I see, the less interest I have in this movie.Why does the bridge look like the one from Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy?
Why does Uhura look like Beyonce?
Way too much CGI and a couple of wince inducing bits of dialogue.
It may turn out to be great, but I'm having flashbacks to 'Enterprise' in that it'll be a prequel that only makes the barest effort to look or feel like the thing it comes before.
Those shots of the Enterprise under construction do look pretty cool though.
No problem. Anytime I talk about this stuff with other people means one less rant my wife has to hear.
Two of my goodreads buddies are going ape over the trailer, so I was wonder about your view on it. I think it is hard after awhile to do a costume that is not looking like Batman. I did not really focus on voices, because of the music--but I have only read it a couple times. I guess if i was really into it, i would have a feel for voices and such. One GD is so happy they got Mars right. I feel bad when they always have to strip down the girls for the fan boys. Thanks for your opinion.
All right, I caved and checked out the trailer.I'm still torn. Lots of obvious CGI, Rorsharch's voice was wrong and Nightowl still looks like Batman.
On the good side, the scene of the Owlship coming out of the water was freakin' cool. Dr. Manhatten looks good and I haven't decided yet how I feel about Spectre looking like a stripper.




















I like how they got attention for the series with the podcast, but would prefer a book.
Guess, I'll have to track down the podcast once I finish reading the book.
