My 5 Unpopular Star Trek Opinions

Any fan of Star Trek worth his or her gold-pressed latinum holds the same opinion on certain facets of the Trek franchise: Kirk is a big ol’ pimp; Wrath of Khan is the best of the movies; The Best of Both Worlds is the best of the TNG TV show; Janeway’s hair bun was a miracle of modern science; Wesley Crusher was an abomination and Bearded Riker was way better than Clean Shaven Riker. But we all also have less than popular opinions that put us at odds with the rest of the fandom. So sit back, set phasers to stun and engage your way past the jump to see my unpopular Star Trek opinions.

Will We Get All 11 Doctors Together For The Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special?

This bit of news/rumor came from the Blogtor Who blog and was immediately taken down which tends to lend more credence to it being true than not. I’m sure some inventive effects will be used to deal with the fact that some of the actors who portrayed The Doctor over the years have passed on and then some wibbly wobbly timey-wimey stuff will need to be done to explain how all of the Doctors can be in the same place at the same time. But if all of the living actors will indeed be gathered together then I will be a truly happy … Continue reading Will We Get All 11 Doctors Together For The Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special?

There Can Be Only One…The Racial Quickening of The Walking Dead

Highlander-Movie

For centuries we have waited for the time of the Gathering, when the stroke of a sword and the fall of a head will release the power of the Quickening. In the end, there can be only one.

– Duncan MacLeod of The Clan MacLeod

Tyreese is finally coming to The Walking Dead! The biggest gripe I have had with The Walking Dead TV show was that they didn’t include the fan-favorite character of Tyreese on the show. My annoyance was compounded by the fact that the new character of T-Dog was created for no good reason at all instead of just having what was one of the best characters from the comic on the show. So when I heard the rumors that the Tyreese character was being cast I was ecstatic and then when I read that the character had been cast with Chad Coleman (a favorite of mine from his time on The Wire) filling the role I was giddy with excitement. So seeing the promo that introduces the character (after the jump) just makes me even more psyched for this Sunday’s fall finale than I already was but spoilers have me feeling a bit of trepidation at the same time.

Exactly Who Is the Target Audiece For A Walking Dead Zombie Bikini Calendar?


Aside from the fact that the make-up for this cheesy bit of nonsense (done as part of promotional efforts for the current season of The Walking Dead) is insanely low budget…the ladies look like a bunch of pretty co-eds on spring break who came in contact with a flesh eating bacteria of some kind and enjoyed wearing goofy contact lenses instead of the living dead.
But who thought this was a good idea to begin with? Maybe I am a stick in the mud but I don’t find the idea of bloody and bruised women in bathing suits to be all that sexy.
You can download the calendar HERE and click onward to see some pics plus a making of video that just ups the creep factor of this entire affair to around 1000.

The Daily Nerdgasm: Game of Thrones Fighting Game


If only this were reality…the idea of a Game of Thrones fighting game in the style of Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat would be killer. I would probably play that damn game till my thumbs fell off!
Alas the video game does not exist anywhere but in the fertile imagination of the artistically skilled crew over at Chroma Engine.
Click onward to see some more awesome battle pics.
