Mea culpa. I forgot about that micro-reactor thing.

My only gripe with the plot: Morgan Freeman is terrible at planning. It was clearly his idea to plant the beacon that brought down Olga's spaceship, because it was his idea to spark some humanity in the Jack clone. This plan hinges on making sure he got to the crash site and recovered the astronauts first. Then he'd

One thing that was never very clear: how in the hell did a fringe Minbari paramilitary cult manage to recruit humans?

I'm more partial to "God sent me" myself.

Am I the only one whose favourite moment of "Trials and Tribble-ations" is Sisko slapping his non-existent com badge?

Lord, what I wouldn't give for a production of A Few Good Men starring Avery Brooks as Colonel Jessup.

Welp, that's another movie they won't be showing in-flight.

Alright, who else had 3 best friends in school who each labelled themselves as one of the Turtles?

No no no. MacGyver, The A-Team, Knight Rider and Airwolf.

Kasidy is responsible for one of the most beautiful Gilligan Cuts I have ever seen.

Two strangers completely fail to fall in love again.

Do you wish to RESTART, RESTORE, UNDO or QUIT?

Yecch, prophecy. One of the most worn-out fantasy tropes, not to mention a pretty dumb one to begin with. Who the hell made this prophecy in the first place?

Alicia Silverstone and Liv Tyler did not make out in the music video for Aerosmith's "Crazy", and my disappointment lingers to this day.

This is not actually an impossibility, and if it really does happen, I will hunt you down and kill you slowly.

There was an early script draft floating around (it may have been Frank Darabont's original) that had a lot more Indy-Marion scenes. Those might have actually given them a chance to display some chemistry, but the movie gutted them.

I am not yet born; O hear me.
Let not the bloodsucking bat or the rat or the stoat or the
club-footed ghoul come near me.

An on-screen romance between Ray Winstone and Hayley Atwell. Riiiight.
