Firefly Meets the Tardis
Now this is the kind of crossover we fucking love:
“Mal and the Firefly gang got more than they bargained for when they tried to see how many Reavers they could stuff into the weird little blue phone booth.”
Peer Production: THE REWARD
We found this 9 minute long animation by The Animation Workshop on Vimeo, and it’s good enough to remind us of “Old Disney,” which, if you’re a true fan, you know damn well is very, very good indeed.
Great music too.
Of Course DOCTOR WHO’s Doctor is God – and It’s No Accident
I watched Russell T.Davies’ 2003 TV mini-series (very mini – only 2 episodes) THE SECOND COMING the other day. It stars Chris Eccleston and tells the story of an ordinary man who realizes one day (after his first kiss from the woman he’s loved since his schooldays) that he’s the Messiah returned for one last shot at redeeming the human race.
The story starts out wonderfully, Eccleston exactly the kind of Son of God I’d want any real son of God to be, but the second half gets bogged down in self-contradictory theology illustrated by humans who just don’t react the way the humans I hang around with would. (Although the demons are very much like the devils I know all too well.)
