Dollhouse has been renewed for a second season! Hurray! Budget slashed though…

Went to see Star Trek last night, and I LOVED it. Utterly utterly loved it. The characterisations were just perfect without seeming like spoofs, the humour was brilliant, the effects amazing and the AU stuff was very clever so the purists couldn’t make too much fuss. I can’t decide which I loved better, Scottie or Bones. Kirk was perfectly reckless, and Spock was spot on. Eyefucking Kirk Spock! Just watch fanfiction as it comes full circle… The only thing I didn’t like was the Uhura stuff – it really really felt like it was shoehorned in because they suddenly HAD to have a love interest, which it absolutely didn’t need.

Oh and Sulu! And BABY CHEKOV!!!!!!! ARGH!

Excellent. Series now plz!

OH, and I watched The Dark Is Rising yesterday too. I haven’t read the book or books so I had no preconceptions there but it was one of the worst films I’ve seen in a long time, marginally better than Van Helsing. The script writer needed to be SHOT because the script was:

You are the seeker. Find the signs.

Have you found the signs? You are the seeker.

Give me the signs, seeker. My power grows

His power grows and you need to find the signs. You are the seeker. Time grows short.

I can’t do this.

You are the seeker – you need to find the signs.

Give me the signs.

RINSE AND REPEAT.

ARGH!
