man I was hoping to use that touchscreen on eversion 2

OH HEY SHERLOCK GREAT DETECTIVING THERE AT END OF SEASON 3

really did he actually deduce anything in the entire of the third season beyond deciding that falling backwards is a good idea

Can we bring back Dolphin Dash?

I dunno about that, but last I heard she's top-tier.  Supposedly they're tooling her down a bit for ultra?

Also, unless something changed, I thing Oro going full out is still the strongest World Warrior.

Is Street Fighter 3 canon, or some bizarre side universe where street fighters are X-Men?

Good evening, friends!

My Santa duties have gone somewhat neglected because, while I thought I'd assembled a worthy selection of gifts for my chaps, the remarkable contents of the two packages I received combined with the startling revelations contained within this thread made me begin to second-guess myself. I wound up scouring my residence for overlooked treasures, as well as the homes of a few overburdened friends. Tomorrow, I mail two packages to two neglected little brontoforumites, and then I shall post the great unveiling of the gifts which I have received from Zaratustra and someone who did a very good job of concealing their identity, as I couldn't find a note or name in the second package. So: thanks again, I'm sorry, and let's look forward to a happy Christmas post-script!

 

Apparently Alan Moore has this massive hate-on for Grant Morrison, too, because he spends a good third of the interview trying to rag on him.

Brits, man.

Although Morrison has made it extremely easy to hate him, what with deciding the future is a spaceship/convention center shaped like his bald head.

IN OTHER NEWS:

It's really weird to read Cataclysm, because Galactus blundering into the Ultimate universe means they now have to use terms like 'energy signatures' with a straight face.

RUMOR: It's Sarai Kurosawa, Ibuki's schoolmate (all Japanese schoolgirls have street fighter training) from the UDON comics.

Fits all the existing info, PLUS she has a Street Fighter x Tekken model, which seems to be the guiding principle in picking characters right now.

and a big ol joystick in the middle

wouldn't it be funny if it turns out all the weather oscillations will freeze humans to death before global warming hits 2 degrees

The episode was interesting, although it broke its own rules at the end (the Doctor just plain out lies about having a plan despite the whole 'truth field' stuff) and the fact the story is the Basic Hero Plot #3, which is even more prevalent than the so vaunted hero's journey:

1) The hero is given a choice between two negative consequences (Have all innocents in Trenzalore die, or reignite the Time War).
2) The hero finds a third alternative that avoids the negative consequences through personal sacrifice (Stay on Trenzalore and save ten generations of Trenzalorians by maintaining a stalemate; the Doctor knows it's his last regeneration and this planet will be his tomb and such dramatic very anxiety)
3) Because the hero has been so selfless in sacrificing themselves, they are miraculously given back what they sacrificed and more (thirteen new lifes oh boy)

(Basic Hero Plot #2 is a character coming back just in time to save the hero, basic hero plot #1 is the villain turning into a snake)

And all of it is done in a dramatic fashion enough that you forget to ask why, for example, ol' Doc just doesn't evacuate the rest of the population on his Tardis. Hell, arguing a Doctor Who episode is like trying to find a solution to the omnipotence/omniscience/omnibenevolence problem.
