  1. Yes, and fairly quickly too. But! This is Yamato physics where the new Gatlantis Empire had a bunch of planets within it (not just a moon size ship like the original show) and nothing came of it.
  2. They should rename the DCverse the "six seperations from Batman" verse. I'm all up for seeing Keaton as Batman again mind you.
  3. Yup, most notably the guy with the grey jacket but the belts on him and the guy in brown cloak look like they came straight from the walmart racks too.
  4. The CGI is well done but the costumes look like cosplay (high end cosplay but not the cosplay that matches studio costumes).
  5. Anyone see that title and think it was a laxative or acid indigestion relief product?
  6. Mandalorian is ten episodes or so, Dr Who the same, GoT was the same, major network shows might be 20+ episodes still but I can't remember the last time I watch one. EDIT - an often more than a year between "seasons" though I think Mandolorian is doing a season slightly more often.
  7. Modern shows are also ten episodes or less per season, back in the day it was 20 to 24 with no free time. And back BEFORE the day some shows were on nearly every day of the week all year long (not just soap operas). No need to have a contract stating no other work when there is literally no time for other work.
  8. If you like VR (or want to try it). The Vader Immortal games are all about lightsaber fighting. The game itself is very short but nice, the Lightsaber jodo is good fun that lasts as long as you find it interesting (kind of like old school videogames where you fight wave after waver of enemies, bots in this case)
  9. Looks good to me. I might finally subscribe for a month to catch up on all of the shows since Season 1 of Picard.
  10. I'm looking forward to the gymnastics at a water or power station (or whatever it was). Just saw it was animated, boohoo. Oh Well, I'm still looking forward to it!
  11. That washed out color scheme is really bugging me. It is Netflix so I will probably give it a look though the trailer does not scream "Must SEE!" to me.
  12. Nice, I always had a soft spot for the hard shell guy.
  13. I was thinking more along the lines of remote control and not robots. Spot was a robot IIRC and not remote controlled. There are plenty of dangerous jobs (firefighting for example) that require human agility to do.
  14. I'm wondering how long before they use the technology in those robots to make remote control automatons. They could be very useful in dangerous activity, fire fighting, mining, deep sea welding, etc... I'm assuming the cost is way too high for now and perhaps energy use if it cannot be externally supplied.
  15. For as long as I have been waiting for History of the World part 2, that trailer just made me stop. Not even a hint of "Hitler on Ice!" or "A Viking Funeral" in there, though there was a hint of the "Jews in Space" segment. And four nights? Way too much.
  16. It is a wee bit on the cold side (I heard 33 will be the low in Orlando one day) but I love going to the park in January. Crowds are (sometimes) lower, some of the Christmas decorations are still up (looking kind of forlorn admittedly) and being able to walk around in the daytime without broiling is great.
  17. The RR is back up and running at Disney World today! The fact that it took around 4 years and it being a somewhat big deal does not speak well for Disney however. On the plus side I may ride the thing around the park 4 or 5 times when I go in mid January.
  18. Neil Degrasse Tyson goes and muddies things up for me. I take it he knows what he is talking about and what is commonly known as a Hydrogen bomb is a fusion bomb. Till now I always thought they had found more efficient use of fission - similar to how hollow charge weaponry became much more efficient when they did some more math on finding the best way of producing them. So we have had Fusion since the first Hyrdrogen bomb in the late forties or early fifties.
  19. Don't see how fusion is good for weapons. Unlike Fission it is a very bad return on investment to get a fusion bomb. I'm not even a layman really but the hard part of fission is getting the fuel ready, which can be done remotely while fusion the fuel is plentiful but requires a HUGE amount of infrastructure to start (and maintain in the case of a reactor but not a bomb) the fusion.
  20. I doubt the movie will be any good but whoever came up with that trailer deserves an Oscar.
  21. Laser and Magnet technology has been scaling up very quickly for a good while now. The 10 years to a working reactor (not commercial but a working full time reactor) does not sound impossible.
  22. I've managed to do it with a number of shows, it can be tempting to look at the Andor thread here for instance since I have not watched it yet but I manage.
  23. On the flip side you can always wait till a show is done and binge it anyway. Unless the services start having viewing windows for their own shows.
  24. Homepage is asking for a login. Never saw that before.
