  1. Bill mantlo (creator of rocket raccoon) could probably do with a few bucks if you can spare any. http://gregpak.com/love-rocket-raccoon-please-consider-donating-to-writer-bill-mantlos-ongoing-care/
  2. Saw Alien on TV when I was 7 and the chestburster scene really got to me. Also, think I was 9 or 10 when I saw Robocop 2. Most of the violence in that film is ridiculously cartoonish but the scene where they chop RoboCop to bits and then dump the remains outside of the Metro South station really got to me.
  3. Everything that Dan and Mike have recommended so far is great. The Chimes of Midnight is a pretty spooky story. Davros is a pretty great Sixth Doctor tale that delves into Davros' history.
  4. IDW is adding 9 dark judges for their Judge Dredd series. I think this is a misstep on their part. The four Dark Judges are like the original nWo and it feels like the 9 they're adding are like Buff Bagwell and Stevie Ray.
  5. I have a copy of MiracleMan: The Golden Age signed by Neil Gaiman and the Absolute Watchmen signed by Dave Gibbons. Both have to be worth a bit. Not house buying money, but certainly very nice meal and drinks money.
  6. Put this in the leisurely comics thread, but also thought it deserved a place here. Cliff Robinson commission of a Judge Dredd/Doctor Who crossover
  7. Commission by Cliff Robinson, an artist who did a lot of work on Dredd in the 80s and still provides covers and strips to this day. It's a shame IDW lost the license to Doctor Who as they're the only people who could have pulled this off and I would really love to see this story.
  8. SFDebris covered it a few months ago and really nailed why I didn't like it. It's a bad story filled with seams of really good ideas. I also rewatched Children of Earth a few months ago and it sadly didn't hold up. There were some great moments and the ending was bleak and heartbreaking, but there was also a lot of crap and stupidity in it. That final episode though was superb, from Gwen's opening monologue to Jack's heartbreaking decision.
  9. Despite the fact that Bad Eggs is an bad episode, the opening is actually a perfect Buffy short film. I've always seen that as a quick way to test if someone's going to like the show or not.
  10. I wish this was around 5 years ago, my godson would have loved it. He really loved the Adam West movie and the Nolan films were just too dark for him.
  11. Radio 4xtra is broadcasting the pyramids of mars starting tonight http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b018jk6s
  12. Also, Big finish have the Nicholas Courtney memoirs on sale for £2.99 for the next 48 hours.
  13. They were originally confessors. They were repurposed for controlling humanity when the kovarian chapter went back in time.
  14. I seem to like this episode a lot more than a lot of people. I thought it was a great send off for Smith and a great way for the eleventh to spend his life, fighting monsters and fixing toys. It'll be interesting to see if they carry on with the fairy tale angle for twelve or if they go with a new approach.
  15. I agree. Look at McGann in "Night of the Doctor". He only really needs a little push to be the one to be ready to use The Moment.
  16. Strax report on the various faces of The Doctor
  17. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlN-SPx1zAg&feature=youtube_gdata_player
  18. Ballad of Halo Jones is on sale for £1.99. One of the greatest and most popular series 2000AD has ever produced and an early Alan Moore classic. This is a fucking bargain and it comes DRM free. Buy it, alls of yous!
  19. Last night's episode of South Park may be one of my favourite ever. It had all of my favourite ingredients, blisteringly funny joke, scathing social satire, a bleak ending and Kanye West. Who could ask for more?
  20. In the case of the cinematographer on Cool as Ice, he did great work but he was just putting a pretty frame around a huge turd.
