The BlasterMind Study Thread

[Good_Ash]

Well...I was really lousy on this one, hopefully be better on the next.

Woohoo! 13 out of 15. And I don't even like Westerns

BTW, not that episode titles count but no.5 is The Gunfighters, not The Gunslingers.

Too much similar original episode titles. I wrote it wrong myself despite only watching it a little while ago.

BTW did you think [spoiler]calling the alien the Gunslinger in this week's ep was a reference to the working title of The Gunfighters? I did a little squeal when I heard it.

It's a tough call. I'd like to say yes but I'm not sure Whithouse would have known. But I'll content myself with fannish glee!

Darnit! Late again with this. Will quickly six shoot out some guesses before checking out the true answers.

1. Wild, Wild West (movie version)
2. No idea, though looks familiar.
3. Back to the Future: Part 3
4. Cowboys & Aliens
5. Doctor Who
6. No idea, but she looks bleedin' scary!
7. Jonah Hex
8. Star Trek (TOS)
9. Star Trek: Enterprise
10. Going to annoy me this one, should know it.
11. No idea.
12. Is the guy from Tremors, but have no idea. Some period flashback from a Tremors sequel, or the TV show or something?
13. The Valley of Gwangi (have never seen it, but it appears in Blastermind every other week, going to have to watch t at some point).
14.Looks familiar, but nope. I got nothing.
15. Have a feeling I should know this too, but can't quite place it.

Not all that great, worse than my attempts last week, with a middling 8/15 gosh darnit!

Whoop! I've actually got the chance to get these answers in on time this week. Result! Let's hope the answers I give are an equally positive result. Not too many really obvious ones here so this should be interesting. I really can't believe SFX has never done a robot themed Blastermind before though. Shame on you! At least you're making up for it now.

Maybe cyborgs next week for good measure?

; )

1. Flubber, no idea what the robot's name is though.
2. Short Circuit, Johnny 5 is alive!
3. The Matrix, HK (Hunter Killers) they were called weren't they?
4. Doctor Who? Looks familiar, but can't quite place the name.
5. Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, second series character, wasn't he called Crichton?
6. Annoyingly familiar, but just can't place it.
7. The Fifth Element? No idea on a name, Bar-tending Robot?
8. Spaceballs, Dot Matrix
9. No idea, looks a bit Gerry Anderson-esque though. Perhaps Joe90?
10. This crazy thing actually looks strangely familiar, but no, I got nothing.
11. Lost in Space, Robbie the Robot
12. Real Steel, Midas
13. Don't know, but isn't he adorable?
14. Saturn 3, HECTOR
15. No idea with this last one.

So at least we have a bit of an improvement on the last few weeks with 11/15 if all my wild guesses are right, and 7/15 with the robot's names.
