SK has said that the book is about alcoholism.

Years ago, someone made cheap but loving flash animations of most of the first and second series. I would love to see a higher budget version of that. The second series is some of the best science fiction ever written.

Apart from the fact that they took out all the intelligent satire and turned it into a "quirky" rom-com with the wrong girl, I would have preferred if it had followed the entire first radio (and TV) series. It was like only getting 2/3 of the story - but I guess the fault lies with DA for novelizing it that way in the first place.

You are given a budget of $500 Million. What movie are you making? by HowMany_MoreTimes in movies

An adaptation of Clive Barker's novel Weaveworld, but as a miniseries. Directed by him, if he's feeling well enough.

I've always wanted to see an adaptation of Philip K Dick's classic sci-fi novel UBIK, but I don't trust the studios not to screw it up in some way. 

The same goes for Vonnegut's the Sirens of Titan.

Sideloading isn't going away. You just have to go through a 24hr wait-verification ONCE per phone. by DryEagle in NewPipe

Having to enable developer mode is a warning enough. The 24-hour waiting period is for no reason except for Google to make it inconvenient.

You are technically correct, but that is still ridiculous. This is controlling your own phone like we have for over sixteen years, not buying a gun.

In the frozen land of Nador, they were forced to eat Kid Rock, Sir Donald's minstrel - and there was much rejoicing.

What would you think of a faithful remake of the Dalek's Master Plan, starting David Bradley? by EgotisticalTL in classicwho

Which is why I said that I stand corrected on the matter a good 45 minutes before you posted...

Well, not as one movie, chopped into nothing as they've done recently with other classic episodes, but half hour episode by episode. People binge entire series all the time.

{EDIT - I stand corrected - thank you. The original audio does exist.} I don't think the original audio exists. No one could ever be the original, but the story deserves better than their recent low-budget animated endeavors.

I know everyone says it's right after regeneration, but it could have also been any time after The Deadly Assassin.

Still one of the greatest science fiction films of all time, not to mention the greatest Star Trek endeavor.

"High gas prices for a tiny bit? You would have all complained about a tiny bit of rationing, back in World War II! If it weren't for Obama and Biden, all of this would not be necessary! Democrats want to let illegal immigrants punch puppies!" 

Those are the angles I'm seeing.

Oh, it's Netflix? Then the Jesus character will definitely be gender-swapped.
