A marvellous idea, if done well. Looking forward to it.

There does seem to be a ring of self-excuse/justification in it. If he did write that, he might well have tied his own noose with that part.
That could well be the case, and perhaps there are more revelations to come on it, but one should be weary of making very big assumptions based on very little information.
A very heart felt article, but the premise of this whole issue is weak. He may assert the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes and still be an unfaithful weakling who can't keep it in his pants around women who admire him (women who themselves are making a choice to fool around with a married man). A…
There's always some suspiciously brown looking white supremacists at events like this.
It's tough. On the one hand you never aim to deliberately offend anyone, but on the other hand there is no way to say "your deeply held beliefs are holding the rest of us back" without causing the deepest of offence.
Unfortunately for mankind the role of religion in the military hasn't always been restricted to administering the last rites to dying troops, and I wouldn't bring up the subject of religious orders being a part of exploration in general if I wanted to praise them.
I've read, and granted it might be apocryphal, that the line you mention was insisted upon by the network to get the episode past the censorship of the time. A declaration of human independence from all gods was considered tantamount to a declaration of communism during the Cold War.
It's not that there is no religion in the Federation, it's just that the separation between faith and human society is finally complete. Backwards cultures can believe whatever nonsense they want, but the Federation as a functioning society and Star Fleet as an institution of exploration, science and defence will have…
The Prestige, in my humble opinion.
We should make a distinction between a 'remake' and 'another adaptation' of a source material. While some adaptations are remakes of previous adaptations, not all further adaptations are remakes.
Ass gravy of the lowest order. Kids don't get the naughty stuff and none of those movies have significant violence.
Haha I saw that, yeah, would be great. I also imagined a New Orleans team fighting some voodoo bues ghosts. But I'm not American, and I'm purposely thinking like a studio knob here.
New York is an icon all over the world, so it has marketability outside the US. Kansas wouldn't cut for a world audience. LA perhaps: a team of Ghostbusters chasing some ghoul from the golden age of Hollywood.
Formula for a successful Ghostbusters 'soft reboot', all women cast or no (if I may be so bold):
1. Modest budget - less risk.
2. Simple, continuity strong script - with some room for improv dialogue (comedians need it to make gold).
3. A passing-of-the-torch story which acknowledges the originals, but doesn't depend on…
With a bit of a script fiddle Prometheus would have been a masterpiece. Covenant suffers the same malady. I would have preferred that the Prometheus-ish biology stuff with the spores and pale beasties was cut: instead let an unseen horror begin to stalk them (say, a prototype alien spawned from Shaw), then along comes…
Actually it's not too far off of historical accuracy. Archaeology in London reveals a lot more diversity than most of the records and media reveal. London has been surprisingly diverse since the Roman period.
To some extent I find people like Breen and Wiseau inspiring. A lot of very talented people sit and waste their time because they lack the courage and drive to take a risk and do what they love. These guys have serious guts, despite being awful. If they can do it, anyone can.
Life is kinda cool sometimes.
He's a failed Ferangi, with embarrassingly small ears, overcompensating for his shortcomings.
