I am a big fan of Matt Smith’s doctor but I think it is important to make it clear that The Eleventh Doctor is very much a homage of an earlier, brilliant doctor. A doctor who slough filmed in monochrome sparkled more than the average twilight vampire. The Doctor I am talking about is Patrick [...]

Setting the Record Straight on Moffat’s Doctor Who
Posted: September 4, 2011 in My Random ThoughtsTags: doctor who, matt smith, moffat, steven moffat, the doctor
Whenever I talk about Doctor Who of late I get branded as a Steven Moffat hater and a Russell T Davies (RTD) lover. I’m writing this because I want to make the point that I have never thought that RTD was perfect (neither of them are: RTD’s terrible Peter Kay ep and the overuse of [...]

Yesterday DC announced that they were rebooting their entire universe after Flashpoint. Read it here Typically fanboys are going into a state of shock but I do not think we should worry, not yet anyway. With the announcement only fresh in our minds and with only a few things known it could be huge, awesome [...]

I usually spend my days on this site, ranting and raving about comic books and little else. Here I am going to do something slightly different: I will still be doing my usual rant but I will also be talking about something that is very close to my heart. Today I am going to talk [...]

So we all now know that the third Batman film will be called The Dark Knight Rises. We also know that Tom Hardy will be playing the main villain Bane (as I predicted) but most interestingly will be who will Joseph Gordon-Levitt be playing. The Guardian argued that it is unlikely that he will play [...]
Holy Mackerel Batman I Miss The Silver Age Sometimes
Posted: February 15, 2011 in My Random ThoughtsTags: comics, dc, marvel, silver age
There is one era that I have always wished I could have lived in and that was the Sixties. For me, it had everything: I love the style, the clothes, the belief that we could do anything. I love the music, I love that we created Doctor Who, I love the colours. But there is [...]
