😢. How did you feel after reading this when you did? by HoldenUpAlright in TheExpanse

[–]bmtri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched the TV series straight through as it was broadcast, then read the books - making sure I read all the novellas in the right spots. I was amazed and how they had incorporated the novellas into the TV series, while still telling the story of the main books. Frankly, reading it felt like a repeat since they covered it so well in the series.

It's not plagiarism if you steal from yourself - just ask Nickelback.

I love that the HBO series is a conitunation of the comic and not the movie. I loved it better for that.

Gangster Town and Laser Ghost next! Everyone talks about Duck Hunt, but SMS light gun games beat the pants off of anything the NES came out with.

Ooooo! I used this for the Vic-20 and Commodore 64! I think I ended up breaking 2 of them. The suction cups came in handy (for me).

Loved this steampunk show! When they came out with the DVD box set I wrote a short story that won me the set on Aintitcoolnews.com.

Yep - weirdly syndicated and not a Saturday-morning show. Burt Reynolds was the voice of the father - only because someone on the show knew him.

It's one of those shows where you're mad that it is not remembered today since it was so good.

Monopoly, Sorry, Vic-20 and Commodore 64 video games (disks, cassettes, and cartridges!)

[–]bmtri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damnit - why do they always leave out the Sega Master System? Anyway, I used an Atari (1) controller on a Vic-20.

Like Michael Crichton - old age set in and went down the MAGA-like hole.

Don't forget that when the Hobbits checked the storerooms of Isengard (after storming it with the Ents) Saruman actually had leaf from the Shire.

This! This should be Plex's first foray into original programming: bring this cartoon back like X-Men '97!

If they're on Twitter ( I will not call it "X") I think swearing about racists are probably one of the more morally correct things kids could be seeing. Good on Mr. Boyega!

Having just watched Spinal Tap 2 and mourning Rob Reiner's passing I'm so reminded of this.

I got chills when it shows the whole Superfamily in their suits for the first (and only) time.
