Final Destination 2

“People are always most alive right before they die. Don’t you think?”

If someone were to randomly ask me what my favorite Final Destination movie was, I probably would have said this one. It’s the one that my mind immediately goes to whenever I think about the franchise. I like all of the characters, the kills are almost all practical, it’s very hard to ask for anything more.

Terry Pratchett's Discworld: Introduction and Hub

From The Colour of Magic: “In a distant and second-hand set of dimensions, in an astral plane that was never meant to fly, the curling star-mists waver and part...

See ...Great A’Tuin the turtle comes, swimming slowly through the interstellar gulf, hydrogen frost on his* ponderous limbs, his* huge and ancient shell pocked with meteor craters. Through sea-sized eyes that are crusted with rheum and asteroid dust he* stares fixedly at the Destination.

In a brain bigger than a city, with geological slowness, he* thinks only of the Weight.

Most of the weight is of course accounted for by Berilia, Tubul, Great T’Phon and Jerakeen, the four giant elephants upon whose broad and star-tanned shoulders the Disc of the World rests, garlanded by the long waterfall at its vast circumference and domed by the baby-blue vault of Heaven.”


*Note that some philosophers and fans believe that A’Tuin is female.

Andor: Rix Road

“We were asleep.”

In what is arguably an even better episode than "One Way Out," the season comes to an end in an explosive fashion, bringing together a bunch of plots, characters and story arcs to a satisfying middle point.

Yellowjackets: Season Three, Part Three

"You deserve everything that's coming to you."

(This review covers episodes 8 though 10 of Yellowjackets season 3, and contains spoilers.)

As the title of the Yellowjackets season three finale suggests, an effort is made here to bring many of the series’ biggest storylines “full circle.” What happens in these three episodes is both messy and cathartic, as we get answers to questions that have been hanging over viewers since the pilot.

Doctor Who: Lux

"I’ve toppled worlds. Sometimes I wait for people to topple the world. Until then, I live in it, and I shine."

The Doctor trips the light fandango. Or at least the light fan-psychotico. Actually, the light kind of trips him. There are fans, though.

Andor: Daughter of Ferrix

“For the greater good.”

After the incredible heights of episode ten, we follow up with a slower, more somber episode that deals with the fallout of the choices the characters made.

The Invisible Man Returns

Willie Spears: [Gasps] ‘Ghost!’
Geoffrey Radcliffe: [Sneezes]
Willie Spears: ‘What kinda ghosts sneeze?’
Geoffrey Radcliffe: ‘It's cold in the other world, so cold!’

The second film in the Invisible Man series of Universal classic horror, this one is also very much a mystery movie that also has a lot of comedic bits in ways similar to the original film, although it never gets as silly as some of the films in this series that come after.

Andor: One Way Out

“I need all the heroes I can get.”

Andor is a show that no one wanted, about a character that no one cared about. There are some people who love Rogue One. I wasn’t one of them. And I couldn’t understand why they wanted to make this series. After watching this episode, I know why.

Daredevil: Born Again

"I was raised to believe in grace. That we can be touched by the divine and transformed into a better person. So if you say to me that you're a new man, I say 'Fine.' But you should know, I was also raised to believe in retribution. So if you step out of line, I will be there."

It has been seven long years, but Daredevil is back! He has been born again.

Too cheesy? Yeah, I know. Writing these little intro blurbs is hard!

This season review contains spoilers.

Resident Alien: Escape from New York

Mayor Ben: Dr. Smallwood, I am sorry to have to do this. I mean, you will always be a pillar of this community. But I am going to have to ask you if you have ever considered taking an extended vacation. You know, maybe buy a van? See the world?
Nurse Ellen: He's trying to fire you.

Episode description: "Harry and Asta find what they are looking for but not what they need as danger closes in." Not a great description, but it lures you in. And, certainly, the episode supplies plenty of danger!

Doctor Who: The Robot Revolution

"You lot. Forgive. Rebuild. Maybe change the name of the solar system."

The new season of Doctor Who has arrived, bringing with it a new companion, new adventures, and a newly acquired lack of focus as to what exactly it wants to be.
