Oh please, like you think you're new and fresh with this shit? The Skyfall trailer already introduced an innovative new take on the BWAAAMP. They gave the world the BWAAMP BWAAAMP. That's the world we live in today. DEAL WITH IT MOTHERFUCKAAAAA

One thing I liked about AbramsTrek - the first one, I have to clarify now - is its depiction of Starfleet Academy as this school of only the most amazingly smart and capable people in the world. It's insanely hard to graduate. But if you do, you get to work on a spaceship.

And now I remember Worf sneering at O'Brien and Bashir's holodeck Alamo recreations while secretly wanting to join in.

Internment Camp 371 Break.

Hot Shots! is one of the greatest movie experiences of my life. There were 6 or 7 of us, and we were all 15 - just the right age to appreciate it. We were quoting jokes and lines from it for years. I know other ZAZ movies are objectively better, but Hot Shots!… I'll always remember it.

I seem to remember that the medical conference was referenced in an earlier episode. Bashir mentions he just got back from a conference - the same one we learn here that he'd been kidnapped at. Anyone remember this?

That clip made me feel really really sorry for Damien Carter.

To me, what keeps Kira from drifting into Chaotic is her adherence to the Bajoran faith. Deeply religious people are rarely Chaotic.

The Rundown 2!

Neutrality, on both the Good/Evil and Lawful/Chaotic axes, is defined by self-interest. Kira is Neutral Good because although she can be heroically selfless, she'd do so primarily for her personal cause of Bajor. (And on MGK's chart for comicbook superheroes, the Neutral Good square goes to Spider-Man, because his…

You're deliberately working in references to all of Trek's worst episodes, aren't you?

I think it's Worf's lingering loyalty to the corrupt Klingon regime that pushes him just south of Good.

Cellular. That thing with Chris Evans in which he gets a call on his cell phone from a kidnapped Kim Basinger.

Beat me to it. Quark is True Neutral, not Lawful Evil.

So The Rock is playing Chest Rockwell?

If Bill Macy can be an action hero, Tony Shalhoub can be an action hero.

Oh, I gladly shit all over them. As action movies, which is what they're supposed to be, they suck hard. I still recall the big climax of the third one going like this: "Okay, see that MacGuffin there? We gotta blow that up to defeat the bad guys and end the movie. So okay, let's go and OH SHIT, bad guys are attacking…

I must be the only person in the world who actually liked the comedy bits in the Transformers movies. Yes, everything with Shia LaBeef's mom and dad, and Ken Jeong in the second one.

I have it on good authority - i.e. my friend who listened to the The Rock commentary - that Michael Bay worships at the feet of James Cameron. Seems he got Cameron's cinematographer on that film and kept asking him, "What would Cameron do? How would Cameron shoot this? Did he watch Bad Boys?"
