Lovejoy! LOVEJOY'S IN THIS EPISODE! Ah, is there anything Ian McShane can't do? Mostly I'm quite sad at him being this nice guy in this nice community and then they all die. One might possibly argue that I should have suspected Imminent Death given they were decent people who just turned up, but no, I…

Game of Thrones 606 Blood of my Blood
I'm a LITTLE bit behind in Game of Thrones, and this is actually the last episode I've seen. I may have caught a glimpse of a trailer for last week's though and OMG. But, yes, cast your mind back Some Weeks Ago to an episode that couldn't help but be a little bit of a…
So, that ending to Mass Effect 3?
I've spent the past four years avoiding spoilers about Mass Effect 3, but now I've finished my first playthrough, I can go read as much spoilericous content as I like, hurrah! (This is a subtle hint there will be many ME3 spoilers in this entry.) I hate to be spoiled on a first runthrough of…
Game of Thrones 605 The Door
"Liz, by the end of this episode, you will be bawling your eyes out...for Hodor." "Do not be ridiculous, Hodor is an undeveloped, one-note character who's there, sadly, for cheap laughs, and to be The Big Dumb One. It is not a character trope that delights me. And this is not a particualrly interesting interpretation…
Game of Thrones 604 Book of the Stranger
In my concerted effort to Finish A Thing this week, I managed to forget to write lovely words about last week's Game of Thrones. It's Doctor Who all over again! (I will finish writing about last season, I WILL.) Anyway, here we are now. And IIRC correctly - it's only been a week so I…
Game of Thrones 603 Oathbreaker
Wheeee! So after a spiffy episode last week where there were amusing deaths and I felt seriously pandered to, this week feels a slight drop off. This is isn't to say it's a bad episode or sod all happened, but it wasn't terribly interested in moving along the story of most of my favourites, so…
Game of Thrones 6.02 Home
One of the most frustrating things about Game of Thrones - books and telly - is as the story goes on, the plotlines multiply to such an extent that a full book/season goes by and you feel like sod all happens. It's nudge, nudge, nudge, EXPLOSION, nudge - the sort of pacing which, oh, I…
Game of Thrones 6.01 The Red Woman
Quite excited that Game of Thrones is back on the telly this week (or last week, if you are States-wise - we get our ep on the Monday); and ever so slightly more excited than last year, because last year I was really Quite Bitter that there was no more Charles Dance. Alas, there is…
Bye bye, Blake
I was terribly to learn last night that Gareth Thomas, most famous for playing Blake in Blake's 7, has passed away. His work has given me so much joy over the years, not just Blake's 7 but really anything I saw him in (Children of the Stones is particularly winning), for he was a marvellous,…
Everything I Love About the Star Wars Rogue One Trailer
Because GOODNESS, I would never have guessed I'd be so excited! And I love Star Wars, and Force Awakens was amazingsauce, and yet I was still so "hrrrrm" about the anthology movies, until the teaser trailer was released on Friday. And it was so good. And here is why; all the whys, for me, it…
