Apropos of absolutely nothing, sci fi blog io9 asked the question: “Which hero would you like to see hook up with his/her alternate selves?”

  • nice Kirk/mean Kirk
  • all the Drs. Who
  • Boomer/Athena
  • a couple of Supermen
  • Milla Jovovich and clones (from Resident Evil)
  • Jango Fett

Some of the commenters made it clear that they are not interested in Gawker’s brand of sci fi masturbation fantasies. I say, “Hey, if they took the time to ask, the least I can do is reply.”

Sigh.  Captain Pike, we barely knew you.Kirk: No, and if I have to explain it, you either have some weird Kirk fetish or maybe just bad taste in men altogether. His brand of braggadoccio leaves me bored. Christopher Pike, on the other hand, had a double in the mirror universe (before mirror Kirk killed him). Now, that I could go for.

Doctor Whos: A loud “yes” on the last two, but I think you’d have to have fairly broad tastes to want to see all of them together.

Boomer/Athena: I only say “no” because the ratio of female gayness to male gayness on Battlestar Galactica is already horribly skewed. Until we see Baltar and Helo together, I vote in favor of a moratorium on sixes and threes slipping into bed with each other. At least Torchwood has the decency to be perverted on all fronts.

Superman: Dullsville.

Milla Jovovich: In a completely unrelated note, I was once having dinner in a middle-of-the-road Indian restaurant in the Village, and who should be seated next to me but Milla Jovovich. I’m not a particularly star-struck person, but I had literally just seen The Fifth Element (again), so it was a nice surprise. She’s lovely, but no, I don’t really want to see her getting it on with herselves. I wouldn’t mind watching her fight it out amongst herselves over some steamy samosas, though. That girl can eat.

Jango Fett: I didn’t put him last, but it’s good that he is, because he’s the clear winner. Not because of Jango Fett, mind you, but because of Temuera Morrison, the actor who played him. Let’s show more of him than you could see in Star Wars. (He’s the one on the left.)

Different Show, Same Guy
