TOS Trekkie Goodness

The writers of Star Trek Into Darkness, which I enjoyed immensely, have opened up about all the trekkie easter eggs in the movie.

( A few spoilery comments down here. )

One other generalized comment that is Cumberbatch related - though I'm sad he's so EVIL here, it was amazingly fun to see him be such a killer BADASS. MORE PLEASE.

Did you see the movie yet? What did you think? LLAP

Speaking of timeless ships a-sail on endless seas...

A friend of mine reginaspina, who shares my love of the Jamie and Brienne characters in both the Game of Thrones books and the TV show, has posted something lovely and memorable about last week's episode 307 (and some of the scenes that came in the few weeks before).

These two characters, their journey together, and the effects they have on each other through the books, are a big favorite of mine from the ASOIAF series. I was very concerned about how the TV showrunners and writers would handle this key season for them (book 3 is their big moment so far in the book series).

All I can say is... WOW did they do a great job.
