Sarcasm is an adjusted stress reaction.

I'm glad I'm not the only person whose overwhelming reaction to this premier was, basically, "Really?" to all those things listed above. I mean, honestly.

Alas, I did not have the 'it was great I loved it' bit. I'm starting to think I'm just broken about fandom, lately. I want to love it. I just... can't seem to.

And yeah, it's pretty much never a good idea when a writer of literary fiction does sci-fi. They always wind up thinking they've invented something Very Clever that the genre's actually been doing since, like, forever.
