Arrow: Sacrifice

Sisters Sardonic — Mon, 20 May 2013 13:00:22 +0000

Emotionally powerful moments were the hallmark of this finale. I honestly don’t think I was prepared for it. I was so impressed by the interaction and display of emotion in this final scene that I forgot I was watching a TV show. I nearly cried and I am not a crier. We can only guess now at the ramifications of this move.

Great Geek Stuff That You Have Never Heard Of: Comics/Books

Alexi Vandenberg — Fri, 17 May 2013 20:21:34 +0000

This new wave of geek powered media is bringing more and more into fandom... Still, with all of the new media coming out there is now an education gap in geek knowledge as some great staples of geek culture have been forgotten or left (as so far) unturned in the new wave. Over the course of three articles I’m doling out stuff - dated or not - that every fan should at least look at. Let’s start with novels/comics:

The Shape Stealer: All it Steals is Time

Marsha Auguste — Thu, 16 May 2013 19:17:02 +0000

So, it turns out The Shape Stealer was the third book in a series....The book reads more like someone stole pages 150-300 of a much longer novel than part of a series....The blurb had caught my attention, and the book sounded like a self-contained story. Sadly it was not, and I honestly reached the end and blinked. I think even if I had read the series, ending a book like it’s the end of chapter 5 of 12 is never a way to make me pick up the next book. Or, in this case, the first book.

Once Upon A Time: And Straight On Till Morning

Alpha-Girl — Wed, 15 May 2013 12:00:42 +0000

Tamara and Greg kidnapped Henry and took him through a bean portal to Neverland for Peter Pan and the Lost Boys....Show literally sent Henry to Awkward Tween Island.

Game of Thrones: The Bear and The Maiden Fair

Alpha-Girl — Tue, 14 May 2013 15:00:28 +0000

I’m very happy that this episode spent some time talking about a subject in which I have a lot of interest: sex with Peter Dinklage.

Ripping NBC’s Upfronts

Alpha-Girl — Tue, 14 May 2013 13:00:39 +0000

NBC announced details on their 2013-2014 line up and it is littered with head-desk. Let’s get snap-judgey!

Badland Girls: Old School Hot

Rhea Dee — Tue, 14 May 2013 12:00:59 +0000

This week, Rhea and Destiny talk about IRON MAN 3 and EVIL DEAD. This leads to a discussion about horror remakes in general. We also try to figure out why some of you wanna kiss Tom Hiddleston in a Mark Ruffalo/Chris Evans world.

Arrow: Darkness on the Edge of Town

Sisters Sardonic — Mon, 13 May 2013 15:00:33 +0000

You know what, this week’s Arrow was so exciting I nearly puked. No kidding. That is how I respond to tension. But that’s okay because it made for great tv...not the puking, the tension and suspense.

Supernatural: Clip Show

Sisters Sardonic — Mon, 13 May 2013 12:12:37 +0000

I must say, the last couple of episodes of the show have kinda felt like old times, you know, the good ole demon-blood-drinking days of the apocalypse. I am not sure why, perhaps it’s Sam being the center of strange activity, or once again, the many trips to Indiana.
