The future world of fringe is even stranger than the altermate world of Fringe, isn’t.
Walter in jail? For what?
Senator Broiles? And with a glass eye too?
Olivia and Peter married? And WAlternate as the master terrorist? Wow so many twists and turns..
“no matter who is at fault, you’re my dad”
And holy cow..Walternate kills Olivia? Unbelievable.swift and shocking.
The first, people is walter he was the one that sent the machine back in time…
And what? Peter never existed? Wtf?
Star Wars The Old Republic : Deceived – THE BEST TOR Book EVER! May 1, 2011

From beginning to end, this is one of the best Star Wars books EVER written.
Sure, we kinds knew what to expect in the beginning, the good folks at BioWare have produced an awesome trailer showing Darth Malgus sacking the Jedi Temple and Coruscant.
But that’s only a small part of the story.
Who is the Sith on the cover of this book? Who is Darth Malgus?
That’s what we get insight into in a brilliant tour de force. Reading about Malgus alone would have made this book awesome, but author Paul Kemp has also given us the flip side, a Jedi deceived with Aryn Leneer. Her story of attempting vengeance and then giving mercy is the perfect foil to Malgus’ Sith mastery.
Along the way we find out about multiple layers of deception and truth with some solid dialogue and plot along the way.
This book is so good, we can hardly wait for more from Kemp and hopefully more on Darth Malgus sooner rather than later.

how does Sam Wise know so much? There are multiple SAMs too?
The bigger shift is the idea that Olivia is the key to unlock the machine..we had forgotten that episode where she shut off the lights with her mind ..
But what happened inside the machine? Is that a vision of the future it sure looked a lot like Dollhouse’s epitaph

wow that was one heck of an awesome two parter.
We’ve had many episodes where the crew of the destiny are stuck on one planet or another. But now we see a future where destiny’s crew really did get stuck. No surprise that tj and young hookup, James and varo was a surprise..
The more amazing part is the city the survivors descendants built…and all without Rush.
But with all their advancement how come the ppl of Novus never built FTL drives?

Walternate always has some grt lines. “I chose to give up my son, so you can keep yours.”
Dodgers still playing in Ebbets Field..against th expos? The Montreal Expos?
What happens now to baby henry, with fauxolivia in a holding cell?
And what is the deal with Sam? Who, or what is he?

Still no suit!
Where did Booster get that Legion ring from? He stole it? Another thoughtful episode with little real action..but lots of little progression.
Nice touch too with the Man of Steel banner…but how could Booster not know that Clark would become Superman?

Stargate Universe season 2 episode 16 The Hunt [HD]
What a brilliant concept around hunting.
If the beast is intelligent you can’t eat it….and an amazing full circle of events from the beginning when Greer can’t kill the space deer, until the end when he doesn’t kill the monster as it recognizes him to be intelligent for the …fire?
ok a little bit of a stretch but still cool.
Star Wars Knight Errant Novel is AWESOME April 22, 2011

We finally got our hands a copy of John Jackson Miller’s Knight Errant novel.
We loved the comic book so we had some pretty high expectations. How do you translate a comic to a book?
As it turns out, it translates exceptionally well. This is a story that has more story arcs than 20 issues of Dark Horse comics would have provided.
Kerra doesn’t just deal with Damian and Odion but a whole host of Sith baddies..and even uncovers the truth about who controls Sith space.
With twists and turns all over the place, this is one of the best Star Wars books we’ve read in years. Solidly entertaining and engaging on every level.
We highly recommend it.
Fringe ~ why do they look like comic book characters April 15, 2011

sure it was a neat effect to have Walter, Peter and belly as animated characters, but why?
And is belly really dead? Or will he be brought back by another set of soul magnets?
In any event it’s to great to have Olivia back, though it was kinda fun to have her talk with the Leanord Nimoy voice
Dollhouse Dark Horse one shot isn’t a one shot.. April 9, 2011

add a comment
epitaph one was where the dollhouse show ended. The comic starts at the same spot ..but unlike the show this is really quite lame. In a one shot we expect a self contained story, but that’s not what we get. This is just a drawn out prologue for a new dollhouse comic book series.
We don’t have a problem with that, but hey the one shot should have been btw.

No it’s not Ossus again or is it?
Seems to yme that the Jedi got routed in this issue.
And oh yeah uncle Bantha buys the farm
We don’t understand why Bantha couldn’t save both Cade and himself..seems odd..then again this whole series is about to wrap-up, so now is as good a time as any to start killing off characters
This Sith Troopers sure looked nasty too didn’t they?

finally McKay makes it to SGU…though considering that the show is almost done…he’s a bit late.
The whole thing with gin and Amanda perry now in quarantined memory should be interesting too we’ll see how long that lasts

Hope
We didn’t believe she was actually dead. Eli is the best character on the show and he wasn’t going to cheated that way.
So now his girlfriend -and Dr. Rush’s Amanda Perry are both back as sentients inside of Destiny – neat.
But how is it that only specific people see them? Is it some kind of brain wavelength thing?
How will they get them into new bodies? Maybe into robot bodies?
Once again – another awesome episode and once again we’re DISGUSTED that the frakking idiots at Syfy have cancelled this brilliant show.

Alliances
HOw the FRAK could SyFy cancel this show?
IDIOTS.
A really great story and we weren’t sure how it would end, until the end and even then..
the Leutian alliance attacking Earth directly was kinda neat, but the whole stones angle – made this rly interesting.
We know that if someone dies on one end of a stones connection, both hosts die, so this was a good twist. Also interesting to see the relationship expand btween Destiny’s Leutian ‘guest’ and Lt. Johansen.

One of our favorite Star Wars authors of all time, John Ostrander is set to pen the next big Star Wars series from Dark Horse.
According to Dark Horse:”Ostrander, who was part of the Dark Horse panel, described it as “James Bond meets Star Wars.” He said that because the story’s superspy for the Sith is working in the classic era of the films, we may see the return of several beloved characters, including Han Solo, Leia, and Winter.”
Sounds good to us. We have seen some limited detective type novels in the Star Wars universe, but never in the comics..

The whole episode we trying guess who was behind Olivia’s abduction..
We knew it could be the Watcher…
AMAZING twist that it was Walternate…
So what was the Watcher waiting for?
Here’s our theory – FauxOlivia’s baby is actually the boy that is supposed to power the machine – not his dad Peter.
And hey good news! FOX has renewed Fringe for another season.

Star Trek: Typhon Pact #4: Paths of Disharmony
And YES, the title of this review is a spoiler.
This isn’t a particularly good book so we figured we’d save you the trouble.
The writing is decent and sure we love the crew of the Enterprise, yes it’s great to see Picard maturing as a Father.
Beyond that this book’s plot drags along at a snails pace for hundreds of pages. The general premise is trouble on Andoria with an undercurrent of Typhon Pact intervention. The problem is that the plot is entirely predictable when it’s not boring you to death.
Yes it is a bit interesting to learn more about the Andorians and yes it is neat to see them secede from the Federation, but the pacing just seems wrong in this book.
We did enjoy the other two Typhon Pact books that we’ve read, which both also dealt specifically with one society. Rough Beast of Empire is all about the Romulans – and an excellent read – while Seize the Fire is all about the Gorn. Perhaps the drama of the Romulans and the Gorn just simply is more interesting than the mating habits of the Andorians…then again..no Andorian in this book calls Picard a ‘Pink Skin’ – and that’s just plain wrong.
