Reilly WOULD have been great! He's got that great agog face.

I'm a collector, but hell, I'm afraid to read the comments on the comics panel because I KNOW some fanboy will ejaculate crucial plot points about an ish I haven't read yet. The whole bloody page should be littered with SPOILER ALERT.

You forgot "A Simple Plan."

I gave "Third From The Sun" an A. I didn't consider "Four Of Us" at all; that's how unmemorable it was for me.

I've always be ambivalent about Tom Cruise's acting and star appeal also. For what seems like forever (almost 30 years, in fact), Cruise has been boringly one-note. A joke I heard from a comic once said he loved Tom Cruise, particularly in that movie where he played that cocky, young guy. This was in the early '90's.…

What? No drink?

I think astronomers call clusters of solar systems "neighborhoods." If it's neighborhoods we're talking here, then the UFP dealings with the Romulan Empire could be construed as a "gang-related" conflict.

Good point. I think a variation on this plot device was used for the movie adaptation of "The Hunt For Red October" where the "silent sub" deliberately gave away its location.

Was the story supposed to be a Bronte mutation? A period costume drama with Dr. Who undertones? Was Braga huffing airplane glue whilst turning out this absurdist yarn on ye olde Gutenberg press?

…furtively. Mwahahaha!

Fair warning about the upcoming "Sub Rosa": one of the strangest, most un-Trek scripts ever written.

"Angel One" is an utterly forgettable episode. Saw it as a kid and later as a bigger kid and even as an adult kid. For the life of me I can't recall anything about the plot, except it being stunningly, stupidly sexist.

"Parallels" was one of the finest "hard" science fiction plots in all of TNG's canon (up there with "Cause And Effect"). Definitely my fave. Handlen was very thoughtful and tasteful in his review of the ep. What fanboys would usually nitpick about the episode was key to the plot (i.e. continuity errors). One must…

From his TV persona, Zimmern always seemed like an affable, down-to-earth, enthusiastic guy. It's nice to see from the AVC interview that I was right.

I agree (with your compelling argument and the splenditude of the "Animatrix"). After seeing "Loaded" in the theatres years ago, I found it as satisfying as my fellow audience members did not. Of course (like everyFUCKINGbody on this thread has and will crow), "Loaded" was not like the first film in sheer visual…

TZ alum Burgess Meredith was the first movie's narrator. Damned if I know who'll they'll get to do it for the next movie.

Again with another comment on this week's review:

I hope the producers of the new TZ movie won't reheat the episodes that were reheated for the 1983 TZ movie. They all kinda fell flat. What is it about a bigger budget that retards most movies based on TV shows?

(making the sound of a raspberry at that last pun)

Ha!
