If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I can think of some people whom I'd love to send r-mail to, she typed darkly.

It was a very cool image!

Jason Momoa is getting to make up for all the scenes where he's been mostly silent -- who knew he'd do so well with a foreign (made-up!) language?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Not exactly dispelling the Klingon vibe though, is it? (The hotel in Nashville had HBO, so I saw the episode from Saturday night.)

I suspect he's a big enough nerd that he'd love to play one.

It would be fun to see him in a new Star Trek movie.

Game of Thrones has been nominated in the Best Drama section of the new Critics Choice awards.

Dear lord, is nothing sacred from remake? That was done phenomenally the first time!

That's... pretty damn useless.

Although with CGI and a modest budget, you could open it up more -- all I can remember of the scenes visually are a couple pillars and some filmy drapes. But then, it's been a while since I saw it....

OTOH, you're not likely to do better with the casting and acting.

No, but at least they're going back to the source material rather than just copying the first series.

True Blood: Sneak peek - includes the first two sneaks plus an additional couple of minutes.
