TV REVIEW: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA: "The Oath" (Season 4, Episode 13)

Philip K. Dick once said that "Things show their true nature by how they decay." If that's the case, the people and society of Galactica is shown to have been pretty vile all along, based on what we've seen in these last three episodes. But back to this in a minute. More immediately: Wow!

Now that was a hell of an episode. Fan reaction has seemed pretty weak on the last two episodes, but I liked 'em myself. This one should be more of a crowd-pleaser, though, I think.

Comics That No One Gives A Crap About #3: "Amerikan Flagg!

Amerikan Flagg!

I can hear you now, “Hey, what do you mean saying no one gives a crap about American Flagg? How dare you! Howard Chaykin’s American Flagg was one of the best comics of the 80s, and a beloved staple of the emerging indie comics industry and the counterculture itself!” Well, yes, that’s all true and well and good, but check out the spelling, sparky: Normally there ain’t no “K” in “American,” is there? And while American Flagg itself was at least occasionally all those things you mentioned up there, my dear hypothetical reader, it’s sequel was…well…something else.

Starship Troopers United Against Child Abusers

In one of the oddest cross-promotional events I've come across, a character from a 1997 Science Fiction Film is staring here in a 2009 Public Service announcement about the fight against Child Abuse

While we here at Republibot are entirely on board with both the fight against the bugs, and the fight against real-world bastards who do bad things to kids, it is kind of an odd choice to use one to promote the other, don't you think?

TV Review: Smallville: Power

Either I wasn't in the mood for this, or it wasn't well executed, or something. I don't know. In any case, we had more Clark and Lana drama... and it reminded me of old times, and not in a good way.

Mild Spoilers below...

TV REVIEW: LOST: "Jughead" (Season 5, Episode 3)

First, let me apologize for not getting this review online sooner. I had technical problems that are hilarious and profanity-filled, but ultimately not very interesting, so we’ll just skip over that to the review itself.

OPINION:Batman dies; Obama shakes Spider-Man's hand...

Last week in the comics, Batman was murdered by evil itself and Spider-Man got to meet Barack Obama. So, three guesses as to what gets all the attention: Batman’s smoking corpse (yeah, they have a body. Yes, it’s really Bruce Wayne. Yes, he is quite dead by comic book standards) or Peter Parker’s brush with His Majesty, the most beneficent King Barack the First?

If you have to ask, you haven’t been hanging out here long enough.
