    My Adventures With Superman

    I realized yesterday that it comes down to an extreme case of Clark being from "Ask Culture" and Lois being from "Guess Culture." We never got to see if Clark would be honest in the face of "I know you're Superman," because Lois never actually SAYS SO. She just spends the episode trying to get...

    My Adventures With Superman

    Keep in mind, the robots were not in "deployed for action" mode, they were in "demo for customers" mode. Normally, they would not be deployed right next to their off switches, or the killswitches would have been reassigned to a handheld unit. Meanwhile, I'm not THRILLED by how last week's...

    Transformers: EarthSpark

    I get the feeling that one thing they kept from G1 was the tone of the conflict. Despite being part of an aeons-long war, neither the Autobots nor Decepticons were really that BAD. Sure, the Decepticons stole resources and did some conquest-style activities, but no atrocities. As a result, it...

    Okay, caught up. ---Dave, still has RotB and Dragon Prince to get through

    Transformers: EarthSpark

    Yes, I have to avoid discussion until I can get caught up, and in some places (like social media) that means I might as well never get involved because the discussion will be long buried by the time I'm ready. It's a hassle enough when it takes me two or three days to get to a weekly episode...

    Final Fantasy

    I mean, this is for summer 2024, so you've got a loooong time to finish up side quests. ---Dave, really wishes you could just skip the Masked Carnivale since it looks like Blue Mage is going to be important to the new expansion.

    Transformers: EarthSpark

    Sigh. I really wish they'd stop dropping entire seasons or chunks and go back to weekly for everything. It's so much harder to find time to watch 6-10 episodes irregularly than to watch one a week (and even that can be difficult sometimes). ---Dave, also had Dragon Prince dropped on his plate...

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    By definition, if they're in orbit, they still need artificial gravity on, since everyone would be in freefall (orbiting at the same radius as the ship, basically). ---Dave

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    I like Pine as an actor, but his take on Kirk was too different, too much "fan cliches given form" for my taste. Which, to be frank, was not his fault, he just got stuck playing a flanderization. ---Dave

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    For all that it was a comedy episode, Those Old Scientists had major emotional developments for at least two main characters, one seeing despair and the other hope. ---Dave

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    "Don't their references seem oddly specific to you?" ---Dave P.S. "Explode?"

    Star Trek Lower Decks

    I love that Ransom is hot for Una, given that his voice actor is married to her actor. Also, "Explode?" ---Dave

    Well, I was NOT expecting that story beat to hit so early in the season. ---Dave

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    I had to start muting the "comedy" dinner scenes. I really don't care for cringe humor. ---Dave

    Final Fantasy

    Yeah, but Y'shtola's entry in the Encyclopedia Eorzea states that she magically froze her aging as part of her training with Matoya. (Doesn't say if it was intentional or accidental.) ---Dave

    Oh dear, an Ojou Laugh. From both Cat Grant and Lois Lane. ---Dave

    Final Fantasy

    My only regret about that scene is that the WoL wasn't given the opportunity to give up that information or guilt Y'shtola into giving it up. ---Dave, a little skeeved that Y'shtola is magically frozen at a physical age of 23, as if she wasn't already the main dev's waifu....
