In the comic strip, http://www.sabrina-online.com/ , everyone is an anthromorphic animal. Due to that fact, it looks like the ladies are naked from the waste down, but they are not. Instead, they are wearing animal stripe patterned tights .
In addition, must people who blame everything and anything on Bill Clinton are forgetting that he is the person whom the “Bill Brasky” skits on Saturday Night Live was based on.
(given the last “fact”, I suppose people should be free to make up their own unpleasant “facts” about shows, if they feel like it.)
On the less pleasant side of things is that Wolverine, the comic book character did not have metal claws grated on to his body, but instead had his the bone claws he was born with coated with metal, according to a retcon that I hated.
Oh, and I will say it first, so as to spoil the fun of those who like to say, “It’s only a cartoon.”
It’s too bad the Wachowski brothers died in that horrible plane crash on the way to the premiere for The Matrix: Reloaded. The real tragedy is that they had every copy of the script and every extant piece of exposed film from all of their work on board the plane, and it was all burned beyond saving right before the volcano erupted at the crash site.
Now we’ll never know how that intriguing cliffhanger of a movie ends!
Well, as to reveled facts that I hated, I didn’t like it when it was reveled that Gallifrey was a barren race, and that it was unlikely that Susan, (or for that matter, John and Gillian) is the Doctor’s biological grandchild. (thought not impossible) This is from Doctor Who, by the way.
Hmm… You know, I think I will put the name in bold, to make it easier to find for lurkers.
If music counts, I’ll throw out David Bowie’s Nazi phase.
In fairness, it was the '70s, the man was drugged out of his mind, his interest seems to have been in “Aryan mysticism” or some such nonsense and not anti-Semitism, and both the press (and Bowie himself) exaggerated the whole thing for the sake of headlines. So I’m not saying this is something that people should get upset over now or hold against him. But I’m sure it is a topic Bowie fan would prefer not to dwell on, and indeed it does seem to be largely forgotten.
There is a sixth book in P. J. Farmer’s World of Tiers series. It’s so bad that its mere existence renders the rest of the series nigh-unreadable, as they are transformed from enjoyable sci-fi into harbingers of impending DOOM.
IOW, it sucks so bad that words cannot adequately express its suckage.
Thank goodness Orson Scott Card didn’t decide to write about what happens to Bean and the rest of the Battle School kids after “Ender’s Shadow”. It’s so much nicer that way.
It was a shame the Rolling Stones all perished in that plane crash in 1973: still, it prevented us seeing them as yet more pitiful 60-somethings shaking their emaciated arses around the world for yet another clutch at our wallets with their wizened old claws. Best to remember them as they were.
