evilgrins reviewed the latest Terminator film over at multi_genre_fan, spotting what seems to him an inconsistency in time travel causality in the series.

Time travel is the new space travel. In the 60s and 70s space opera was the final frontier, with Star Trek making the conventions mainstream and Star Wars making them saleable. Then in the mid-80s Terminator and Back to the Future came along, and ever since then even space opera has been about time travel as often as not. Look at all the time travel in all the Star Trek spinoffs; including Enteprise's three-season temporal cold war, including this month's movie. Look at the popularity of the Doctor Who revival, and how often time travel is now worked into the stories instead of just being the agency used to get the heroes into the stories. James T. Kirk and Luke Skywalker gave us the universe, but John Connor, Marty McFly and the Doctor have given us eternity.

Maybe it wasn't exactly on topic, but it's something I've been wanting to articulate for awhile and it just poured out.

Oops

This date-adjusted entry is an apology to anyone who's followed a link to entries in this journal tagged peri which advertised such entries as stories 'shipping the Doctor and Peri. The series flagged after three stories, and wasn't truly 'shipping them anyway because I couldn't bring myself to 'ship the Doctor properly when I know nine-hundred year old heroes don't have One True Loves; so I removed that tag from those stories and reaffixed it to the entry that had had it before (below). The three attempts at Peri-'shipping can now be found among the entries carrying the tag shipping.
