Is that a wig?Sad little moment when Adama realizes what Roslin's trying to tell him about liking the ceremony.Nice look at the inside of the...
Bored. Bored. Bored. Even poking fun at the UFOlogist at my other blog about the past week's Phoenix Lights hoax is boring since they were forced to eat crow today when the prankster came forward.Tried watching the horrendous Flyboys again the other day. Still hate that movie with a passion. No effort what soever to even get WWI half right. I'd rather watch the 1939 movie, The Dawn Patrol, or the 1966 move, The Blue Max. At least then there's an excuse for any cheesiness and errors.Also went ahead and signed up at the Join the Fight thing over at...

Warning: Spoilers below the cut!Doctor Who: Voyage of the DamnedPlot: The Doctor tries to save the Earth and the passengers of the spaceship Titanic on Christmas Eve.Viewing Commentary:Kylie Minogue eh?Loved the "earth expert (what did he call it, earthonomics?) getting so much wrong but in a surreal way getting so much right."They must be enormous , these buffaloes. So many wings." LOL!I love how London is all abandoned save the Queen, a butler, and newspaper seller.Figures the whole thing is a mundane corporate revenge thing.Loved the whole Santa, his claws, and his wife Mary.. *snicker*"That's a bit odd, sir.

A brief review for The Sarah Jane Adventures.Warning: Spoilers under the cut!The Sarah Jane Adeventures 1.01 : "Invasion of the Bane"Plot: A new neighbor becomes entangled into Sarah Jane Smith's life.Overall, I thought it was a nice family friendly and kid friendly version of Doctor Who, which isn't so surprising given the show is based off that franchise. It was certainly trying to take a different non-violent approach to dealing with aliens and the oblique references to Doctor Who and Torchwood were nice touches, along with a bit of nostalgia for those who love K-9.Bubble Shock seemed silly, but then...

I still think Dee's reason final reaosn for leaving...

Ok, minor point but still, that doesn't bode well for attention to detail when it comes to the storyline.The expressions on everyone's faces in CIC: priceless.Oooh. Space battle.Ack. One civvie ship down. One hell of an explosion there.Looks like the Space Park is going down. (Does that vessel have a name...
