    ^ I hadn't seen that, but now I really want to.

    Agreed, it was extremely well done. Almost all compositions could've been a beautiful photograph, taking good advantage of the high contrast black & white. Also great cast in all the smaller parts, perfectly directed. And after... a certain turn of events it becomes suitably nightmarish. Good stuff.

    Poul Anderson: The Broken Sword, 1954. 'I hear hoofbeats,' she whispered. 'I hear hoofs galloping out on the edge of the world. It is Time, riding forth, and snow falls from his horse's mane and lightning crashes from its hoofs, and when Time has ridden by like a wind in the night there are...

    ^ I agree that Shogun is awesome, but maybe spoiler the above for those that haven't seen this episode yet? *** Ripley on Netfilix was spectacular.

    CL Moore: Jirel of Joiry, 1934-39. "This window might be a magic one, opening into strange lands, but through it had gone the man she swore to kill, and where he fled she must follow."

    Robert E Howard: The Conan Chronicles Volume 1, 1933-36.

    Lord Dunsany: The King of Elfland's Daughter, 1924. "And you that sought for magic in your youth but desire it not in your age, know that there is a blindness of spirit which comes from age, more black than the blindness of eye, making a darkness about you across which nothing may be seen, or...

    Dan Simmons: The Fall of Hyperion, 1990. "There are those AIs which do not want to build God. They learned from the human experience that to construct the next step in awareness is an invitation to slavery, if not actual extinction." This completes the duology started by Hyperion - which I...

    Adam Roberts: The Thing Itself, 2015. 'What you're forgetting,' she replied, 'is we have something Kant didn't have.' 'A ******* sense of humour, is it?' 'AI,' she said. This is what set the dominoes trembling in my head, ready to tumble. 'You what?' Imannuel Kant's Das Ding an Sich x...

    Neuromancer was a bit of a hard read for me (Gibson flies through cyberspace at such break-neck speeds that it can be hard to keep up), but I'm still planning to pick up the next two Sprawls and start them off with a re-read of Neuromancer. For the first book, I'll suggest picking up the nice...

    Alastair Reynolds: House Of Suns, 2008. "Given the evidence at our disposal, only a fool would put any faith in the organic and the machine living harmoniously for the rest of time." An ok read, but having now tried a few of the modern (say from 1990 and onwards) hard SF/Space Operas with 400+...

    It really isn't - the only worthwhile moment is when the camera pans across the shelves in the scientists' arctic research station, showing a DVD cover of John Carpenters The Thing. But the latest season of Fargo is worth watching.

    Peter Watts: Blindsight, 2006. "... we can't even prove that reality exists beyond the mind of the first-person dreamer. We have such need of intellects greater than our own."
