Best line of Time of the Doctor

"Do you happen to know how to fly this thing?"

It is no spoiler to say that I have mixed feelings about the regeneration episode, Time of the Doctor.

And it is not much of a spoiler to say that this was my favorite line of the whole episode...and I wonder what the line actually implies for the newest Doctor.

Incoming! Worst Batman ever!

Today, it was announced that Ben Affleck is going to be the next person to play Batman.

And a little part of me died.

I am sorry, but this is a prime example of why Warner Brothers have never successfully translated DC comics into a major movie franchise. This choice is probably going to make Adam West's and George Clooney's versions of Batman look like pure gold.

Yes, I know that part of my problem with this choice is the fact that I really wanted to see Warner Brothers throw out the rule that Batman must be Bruce Wayne. I personally think that they should have continued with the storyline that they set up where Joseph Gordon-Levitt was the next Batman. Yes, there would be no Bruce Wayne--but we would have an actual Batman the Detective rather than Batman the Wounded Poster Child of Guilt Dressed up in a Million Dollar Battlesuit.

I guess that I am just going to have to write fan-fiction where John Blake is Batman because there is no way that choosing Affleck is going to end in anything other than a train wreck.

Remember Affleck played Daredevil...he didn't do such a great job there, did he? Do I need to say more?!

Breaking Bad Star Trek fanfiction

For those who have not seen this yet, here is an animated version of Badger's Star Trek fanfiction story from the first episode of the final season of Breaking Bad. It is laugh out loud funny!

You are brilliant and have no qualms about letting the world know it. Everyone thinks you are a total twat! You have no fashion sense and always look as if you got dressed in the dark closet of a street clown. You have no real friends to speak of; only a couple of people who tolerate you. You enjoy fishing and have no patience for other people. You will end up on trial for some dubious offence. You will then dissapear and slowly begin to swell.

I want to see Patton Oswalt's Star Wars movie

Ok, I will admit that I am a big nerd. But I think that perhaps Patton Oswalt is the King of Nerds. This clip is eight minutes of nerdish improve about how to make a super Star Wars film, and a little (lot) more awesome tie-ins to that universe. And I love it. But we know that this movie will never be made, and will just remain a Nerd Dream. *sigh*

Happy 61st Birthday Douglas Adams

Today would have been Douglas Adams 61st birthday. As many of my friends know, I was introduced to his book The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy in high school; his work ended up warping my own writing stuff to a lesser or greater extent. And today in celebration of his work, the Google Doodle focuses on Adams' most famous work.
