Did not need you for this lesson.

Why not both?

Yes, we are all star stuff!

Considering that every atom on this earth is extraterrestrial dust, I’m gonna have to agree on this one.

Ohh thats a good choice.

I’ve been a staunch supporter of them casting a non-white guy in the role of the Doctor.

Well that was subtle. Everything Maisie said makes it pretty damn clear the wall is coming down.

Man, you can’t let this go. You’re still wrong on eye placement. My kid was watching it the other day and thought of your post. Emotions come from the eyes. They need to be the central part of the face. You can’t feel the same immediate reaction to the car’s emotion if the eyes are in the lights. The windshield is a…

I’m all for rich Trump supporters to throw around money while desperately telling everyone they meet that they’re not racist. I get the impulse, and the $450 is crazy generous. But saying the equivalent of, “Oh, you’re one of the good ones. Here’s some money.” still seems off putting.

This sort of stuff is why I hope at some point we can all find something (that Trump does) to unite around. We all turn into caricatures online, spouting shit about being “triggered” or “nazis” or whatever, when at the end of the day, most people just want to get along with their common man.

Insurrection and Nemesis are terrible, terrible movies. By far the worst of the bunch. When they pop up on basic cable I’ve never gotten past the first commercial break. Still remember seeing Nemesis in the theater thinking “what have they done?”.

“Why does God need a starship?” is bad Trek, but it’s still Trek.…

I think the main reason that based-on-TV Star Trek films generally failed or didn’t fail was if they built on something from the shows:

Fun facts:

Man, I never thought about it before, but why did they have Tom Hardy in this movie? Shinzon should have been played by Patrick Stewart as well. That would have been fantastic, actually seeing an identical Jean-Luc Picard that was full on insanely evil.

Eh, I’d say that the TNG movies started to stink up the place when the central conflict was about mean stretchy-faced aliens who were jealous of their angelic, non-stretchy-faced cousins. And Picard becomes their bald Shakespearean freedom fighter, with no lasting punishment or complications after the credits roll.

Fat Riker I can handle.

Nemesis’s worst crime is not JUST that it was a pants shittingly terrible movie, both as a movie and as a Star Trek movie. Because it was terrible on both counts. No it’s worst crime was that it effectively poisoned the well for the then current crop of ST actors. Any chance there was for a Deep Space Nine movie died…

Nemesis was the death blow, but TNG movies had a Best Before date. This was a cast not meant for feature length action-adventure stories.

See: fat riker.
