I had exactly the opposite reaction to Deja Q
Personally, I really enjoyed it. I remember liking this one as a kid, just becuase it's so fun to see Q out of his element, and becuase there's a bunch of funny parts (can anyone think of a more humorous episodes in all of TNG?). I was halfway expecting it not to age…
I've always hated "Stark Raving Dad". I can't stand Michael Jackson, I hate the song at the end, and even if you were to excise both of those factors, it'd be a pretty weak story overall. to me, it comes off as a spectacularly lame attempt to shoehorn a michael Jackson guest appearance into The Simpsons. even the meta…
@ alurin -
@ alurin: I'll grant that it detracts from the movie, which really has no need for a Sixth Sense-style dramatic twist.
But to me, the crux of Blade Runner Batty, not Decker. And Batty's story is just as compelling as it would be were he running from an actual human.
damn, you done did it now… you mentioned the final cut of Blade Runner…
If someone with a time machine could go back and make Kurtwood Smith Federation President in every movie, that would be fine with me. He was kick-ass in TUC, but that lame doucebag from TVH has got to go.
If the next movie makes as much money as ST (2009) did, I'd be willing to bet that we'll find out sooner than later. There'd be just too much potential revenue out there to ignore the possibility of a new Trek series.
Yeah, but a hexagonal box has 50% more seams around the edges than square or rectangular boxes, making it more complicated to produce and les structurally sound. And it doesn't hold stuff as efficiently as square or rectangular boxes (unless the future has revealed strange new ways of folding environmental suits into…
and the action features the TNG equivalent of TOS's styrofoam boulders - grey hexagonal containers! Just what they contain we'll never know (not to mention why a foot tall and 5 foot wide hexgon is the best shape to contain anything to begin with), but I always get a kick out of the random stuff they fill the cargo…
DVR'ing is absolutely essential. If you've got the motorola DVR from comcast and you've hacked the remote to get the 30-second skip feature, you can watch an hour long episode in 30 minutes flat. As soon as you hear the dramatic music swelling, hit the skip button about 8 times. that'll save you the unnesecary…
Unwrapped is OK for background noise, but I can't stand Marc Summer's little bumper blurbs. All of his mannerism, pronounciations, etc. are entirely too polished - he's like a bad parody of a smarmy local news anchor.
@sir - it's interesting what some people are offended by. personally, my mom (who's Irish) used to call me a beaner when I was a child (I'm Irish/Mexican). There was no offense taken - I really did like eating beans. I suspect some hispanic civil rights group decided they'd protest it just on principle. Kinda like the…
Fuck It!
I'm on the bandwagon.
I got the impression that whatever anti-aging properties had been engineered into her also gave her phaser-resisting abilities. That's why she didn't go down with the stun settings. and Riker must've reasoned that even if he tackles her, she could maybe break loose and get a finger on the other guy, so he didn't want…
Same here - somehow the DVR skipped this one, so the only way I have of watching it is on my cellphones 3.2" screen… Damn!
well, I didn't have a clue who your boss is, and Rabin's the head writer (I think), so I took artistic license. Now that I think about it, I know Rabin's not the boss from his blog post responding to the washington post's reveiw of his memoir.
Damn! I knew that, too. A stupid mistake to make.
The week before last Zack mentions resigning, and then last week he's "On Vacation"
I was starting to worry - I'm picturing Zack pounding a letter marked "Private - Personal - By Hand" down on Rabin's desk, speeding off in his MG Roadster to his London flat, only to wake up finding himself in a picturesque seaside…
Well, if we're talking about the creepy incest vibe between Darby and Damon, I'm fine if they move plot ahead as little as possible. But other than that, you're spot-on. They've got about 50% more plot than can be squeezed into a half-hour show.
