While wearing Wellingtons?

To be fair to the people who did go and see BVS, many of those negative reviews were in the medium of the written word.

I especially like the big crucifix on the left that has a smaller crucifix in the middle.

I know! I think it's because we find it easier to believe we're watching something that someone is filming than to pretend we are actually there. Even the most basic of films is going to have things like cross-cuts, which makes less sense than anything else if it's something emulating human experience. Unless you're

I think we've reached Peak Username/Comment Synergy.

Open carry might be good enough for cinemas, schools and churches but it's not good enough for the Quicken Loans Arena.

I can see that argument, but I'd say it's the opposite way around - we like Nog and Worf because they represent how beings from different cultures bring different strengths to the Federation and don't have to completely give up their own beliefs. Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations, to coin a phrase.

Ooh, that's another good one. I'm not sure about endorsement mind you.
