[Mr. Worf]

I hope that they don't just remake the previous movie. I hope that they add
on to it. It would be interesting if they could have the guy that made the
original in it as the old man.

I've heard on the whisper-stream that it is a coming thing, Mr Worf.

I had the feeling that there was a lot more to it than some of the scenes. I

Guess that I will have to get my hands on the book.

That was the idea. I also posted another gag, let it run on its own legs, and 
it was shot down within five minutes of posting. I figured that it needed a

Never read the book, but I'll take your word on that. There's a goldmine of 
great scifi that was written between 1950s-80s unfortunately a lot of them 
ended up becoming cash machines.

The sad thing is that a faithful anime adaptation would be a great medium to

Good call on Logan's Run. There wasa ton of material in the novel that they

Re: [scifinoir2] Torchwood: Children of Earth

Adrianne, I read a review of this on a Brit SF site, and their summation was 
that Torchwood would have *really* have to blow the doors off with the upcoming 
season to even keep pace with this one.

Nope, but watched it all already.
It was the best scifi writing I've seen in ages, but also the
most...emotionally impacting. That's all I'm gonna say without being
spoilery.

Another toss in the hat -- "Doc" Smith's Lensman novels. At best, they were 
camped up in an anime feature. At worst... I'll be kind and not force any of 
you to contemplate the horror.

Re: [scifinoir2] Torchwood: Children of Earth

[Mr. Worf]

If I remember correctly, he did mention that he had a relationship a couple
of seasons ago. They did a long flashback where they were showing Jack's
life in WW1. (ala Wolverine. :) ) After he joined Torchwood.  I think that
was season 1 or 2.

I agree with Earthsea. I bought it on DVD and couldn't even get through it.

 I'm gonna need a hard-target saturation of the metro

could convince them to do a quick flyover...

Re: [scifinoir2] Torchwood: Children of Earth

[Augustus Augustus]

i am agreeing with everyone on this one.  i just finished day 3 (thank u 
dvron a side note - i think the people who created dvr/tivo should 
be given a Nobel Prize! but that is a different story) and i think it was 
absolutely brilliant!  capt. jack with a daughter and a grandson?  who would 
have thunk it?  all i can say is, and please don't take it the wrong way, but i 
hope lie all outside that this female soldier get her azz killed.  with extreme 
prejudice!  how do u take a mans child and grandchild and think that there will 
be no reprecussions?

Fate.
p.s.  i hope that this saturday's Dr. Who is as well writen.

  Nope, but watched it all already.
It was the best scifi writing I've seen in ages, but also the 
most...emotionally impacting. That's all I'm gonna say without being spoilery.


It was BRILLIANT.
