"Heh. In X-Men First Class, when Shaw & company are in the submarine, I kept thinking of how the Navy should keep better track of their surplus subs, instead of selling them to a Mr. P.N. Guin.  Distracting. :)  "

Corrina Lawson replied to Corrina's discussion 'SF/F that you read growing up'
"Oddly, that's the one Heinlein I don't like.  And as I'm watching the Hunger Games take off, I can't help thinking that the premise reminds me of John Christopher's Tripods trilogy. Not the same, but the part about…"

Corrina Lawson replied to Alexander's discussion 'TV: Dr Who'
"Overall, I'm less pleased with Torchwood than Doctor Who. They keep having to fix problems they cause. :) "

Corrina Lawson replied to Abdullah Tammour's discussion 'X-men question'
"Lately, I think they've been trying to up Iceman's power levels, saying he needed to grow up first. or soemthing like that.  But you're right. If Magneto can hurt people by using the iron in their blood, Iceman should be more…"

Corrina Lawson replied to Corrina's discussion 'What Classic SF Films to Introduce and When'
"The original is the first one my kids watched but I think there were about 9 or so. We had the VHS tapes of the original Han-shooting-first movies.  They loved it. They were less fond of the sequels. "

"Fun story with the original Planet of the Apes. My husband watched that with my son and the husband said the best part was when he watched my son absorb the twist ending.  Priceless. "

"Interestingly, Short Circuit was a favorite of the girls in the house. :) "

"I wish I could enjoy Torchwood Captain Jack as much as I enjoyed Dr. Who Captain Jack. "

"Cyberpunk was at the cutting edge of what virtual reality/cyber reality could do. It's hard to write good speculative stuff in that direction since the technology moves so fast now! Still, Elizabeth Bear has an excellent series about a soldier…"

"Um...I don't think that was available when I was growing up, at least not in the states. However, one of the first things my youngest son asked Siri (the iPhone) was "What is the meaning of life?" hoping for the right answer. "

Corrina Lawson replied to Corrina's discussion 'SF/F that you read growing up'
"Oddly, I read Manly Wade Wellman's mash-up of Sherlock Holmes and the War of the Worlds before I read the H.G. Wells original. Kinda colored my reading of it, though not in a bad way. :)  I didn't grab Heinlein until college, where I…"

Corrina Lawson replied to Corrina's discussion 'Disney Movies'
"Fun story. I had a chance to interview Betty White last month and my youngest son knew who she was because she did a voice for Ponyo. We wore the tape of Kiki's Delivery Service out when my eldest was little. "

"I think Pixar's UP may be my current favorite."

Corrina Lawson replied to Alexander's discussion 'TV: Dr Who'
"As Michael suggests, you can start with the 2005 episodes with the 9th Doctor. But the beginning of Matt Smith's tenure as the Doctor in 2010 will work equally as well, I think. "
