20 Years Ago, the Best Sci-Fi Show of the Century Delivered the Most Epic Space Battle in TV History

Two decades later, this spectacle from Battlestar Galactica season 3’s “Exodus, Part 2” remains unforgettable sci-fi TV. It’s dazzling and horrifying, and still one of the coolest things ever broadcast on science-fiction television. From a tactical standpoint, the “Adama Maneuver” is absolutely bonkers and one of the riskiest spaceship tactics, perhaps ever (sorry, Vice-Admiral Holdo). What if the ship had gotten torn apart from ripping through the atmosphere? What if the FTL drive malfunctioned or didn’t activate in time? Somehow, it’s also not even the most visually impressive sequence in the episode. source https://www.polygon.com/battlestar-galactica-season-3-exodus-20th-anniversary/

6 darkly funny Far Side comics starring the devil

Back in the 1980s and 1990s, nothing in the comic strip section of the newspaper was quite as dark as The Far Side . In Peanuts , Lucy van Pelt pulling the football away from Charlie Brown as he was about to kick it is about as dark as things got. In Garfield , the lazy cat’s darkest running gag also revolved around a kick — when he’d kick Odie the dog off a table. source https://www.polygon.com/6-best-far-side-comics-about-the-devil-hell/

One Actor Perfectly Explains Why Jason Statham Is the Action Movie King

Mutiny and The Beekeeper star Jason Statham has an impressive filmography despite starting his acting career in his 30s. In his younger years, Jason Statham had a passion for sports, namely diving and swimming, and that is when he was chosen to work for a sports-modeling agency — all while selling jewelry on the street, like his father did. While on a modeling gig, he was spotted by Guy Ritchie, who got him his first movie acting role in Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels back in 1998. This was the start of a prolific, action-packed career for Statham. source https://www.polygon.com/jason-statham-action-thriller-movie-roles-explained/

26 Years Ago, 'Buffy's Worst Character Got the Replacement He Desperately Needed

Xander’s status as the quintessential “comic relief” has often been tainted with a sense of “nice guy” entitlement and instances of flippant misogyny. Compared to Willow (Alyson Hannigan) or Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter), who are brilliant examples of dynamic character growth, Xander’s arc feels relatively stagnant. There’s an inconsistency in his emotional maturity, while the writing has often allowed him to shirk accountability in a meaningful way. source https://www.polygon.com/buffy-the-vampire-slayer-episode-xander/
