Designated Survivor was created and developed for television by David Guggenheim, who previously found success as a writer for projects such as The Christmas Chronicles, Stolen, and Safe House starring Denzel Washington. The series stars Kiefer Sutherland in the leading role, as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Thomas Kirkman. Other performers who round out the ensemble cast include Adan Canto, Italia Ricci, Maggie Q, LaMonica Garrett, Natascha McElhone, and Kal Penn, who famously took a break from acting to aid Barack Obama’s White House as an associate director of Public Engagement.

There are many ways in which a dog might look like its owner. A tall man might have a very tall dog, like a Great Dane. A short and stocky man might have a short and stocky pit bull or maybe a French bulldog. A blonde woman with long, flowing locks might have a yellow lab or maybe a collie with similarly long, flowing blonde hair. Given the nearly universal love of dogs in most societies around the globe, it’s only natural that some study has been devoted to the matter of how a dog might resemble its owner and why. It’s not a universal occurrence and instead happens often in developed societies where a dog owner might have more options when adopting a pet. The owner also might have a greater ability to get a dog that looks or could like that person. Source link

That last point is particularly important because emotion-blocking metal would seemingly help prevent access to the Force, yet Qimir is the only one who ever had the sense to build a Magneto-style helmet to hide from other Force users. We don’t know what metal he used nor what makes it significant. At a glance, though, it’s something far more sophisticated than what goes into saber hilts. As usual, the technology of Star Wars makes no sense once you stop and think about it for more than two seconds. Since we generally liked how The Acolyte’s first season ended, we’re going to do what all fans should on this hot summer day: stop complaining about The Acolyte lightsaber colors and pretend the next Rocket Pop popsicle we eat is a laser sword bleeding from one color to the next.

Elaborating on his point, Moore discussed how Battlestar Galactica characters make other poor decisions than smoking, just like those who are watching the show. “We drink, we have sex with the wrong partners—we make lots of bad choices, and some of them we do knowingly and in full cognizance of the risks and consequences.” This is something illustrated throughout the series, like when Starbuck has spontaneous intercourse with Gaius Baltar or simply punches a superior officer like Tigh when she is drunk and angry. Finishing his thoughts on the matter, the Battlestar Galactica showrunner said “Dr. Cottle obviously knows the risks associated with smoking and he elects to do it anyway — that’s his choice.” Of course, one of the things that Moore’s point seemingly overlooks is that Cottle isn’t...

Slater, who first rose to fame in the 1988 dark comedy Heathers, gives a solid performance in the nearly forgotten 2013 film. Unfortunately, the 80s/90s film star wasn’t enough to save this movie from being panned by critics, overlooked by audiences, and from being cast off to teeter on the brink of total obscurity. Critics both in 2013 and today remark that Stranded bore an eerie similarity to Ridley Scott’s Alien, which is probably no coincidence. Roger Christian, who both directed and co-wrote Stranded, brought a great amount of experience to the table when it comes to science fiction films. Prior to being at the helm of this movie flop, Christian worked as a set and art director for Star Wars: Episode IV-A New Hope (1977) and Alien (1979), earning an Academy Award nomination for both e...
