As someone once said about the Resistance movement in WW2, the French GOVERNMENT may have been craven cowards, but the French PEOPLE sure as hell weren't.

Yeah; one of the core tenants of the White Power movement is "i don't need no fancy book-learnin' ".

This is why "retro" is better than "nostalgia": "nostalgia" is too forgiving of material that has dated badly, because it's tinged with the sentimentality of personal rememberance. Whereas "retro" is just "hey, have you heard/seen/read this cool old thing?"

The best gag in the film is the most subtle: when I realised that DON'T was supposed to be an ITALIAN film (seriously, it's clearly a "giallo"), and the trailer was deliberately hiding that from the audience!

Isn't Tara Reid the Lorraine Gary reboot we deserve?

I think Dax was a carefully planted seed. Establish that the character "changes gender" in an abstract conceptual way, wait until everyone's used to it, and then just casually point out "of course, you realise that means Dax is pan-sexual, right?"

Ah, Kirk was havin' hate-sex with Scotty. DEAL WITH IT.

It's what TV TROPES calls "Word Of God" canon.

Didn't say it was "proof"; just said it heavily implied it. (Meaning the writers didn't feel any interest in qualifying it)

On the other hand, I half-expected them to do a story in which a character gets accidentally impregnated in a holodeck accident.

Harley being bi is actually straight-up canon (seriously, DC openly acknowledged it, which was a bit of a shock )
Now if only they'd go canon with Wonder Woman; I mean, it's a matter of record her creator intended it.

Isn't he established in one of the movies as having a daughter? That doesn't CONFIRM the character is hetero, of course, but it strongly implies he's been involved with a woman at some point.

wait a minuteā€¦ JAMES TIBERIUS KIRK is bi, and it's "Word Of God" CANON!?

Also: "Coffee Achievers".

Look, the 1970s were NOT some non-stop cocaine binge. I mean, come on already.
LSD was still very popular, weed was a perrenial, and Quualudes were never more popular.
Also: THE BOOZIN'

Too busy grooming our sideburns.

Styilized black-and-white photography isn't going to fix Update.

The Master Of The Spork is The Master Of The World.

(TRICK QUESTION: it would clearly have been Michael O'Donaghue's)

Whose Twitter feed would be worse: Chevy's, or Belushi's?
