No, you are not the only one. IMHO it was really bad and obvious.

Actually Pete shouldn't have been dead period from an apparently minor knife wound in his gut. It should have taken him hours if not days to die, and he could have been easily saved using modern medicine. That whole death scene was idiotic. Pete died from a minor gut wound faster than Data (who may or may not be an

LOL, me too. :-D

Well, Vader got a better death than Padme. Who died from sadness.

I would not call a sheep gun "mundane". Nor the various explosives. Deadpool has so many different weapons that it's ridonculous. He is not married to a pistol and a katana - Deadpool uses anything and everything. From nukes to grand pianos. Yes, he once nuked the Hulk. Literally nuked him, just to piss him off.

Actually on one occasion Deadpool regenerated from just a hand. So yes. He is pretty much immortal (at least he was until the current arc where he got his healing factor turned off - but at the moment Vader is also dead, so that doesn't matter).

Two words: "sheep gun"!!! Deadpool is crazy and plans so far ahead that it's ridiculous. Vader would think he was winning until the very end, when a giant 100-foot tall falafel stand would fall on his head. Or he would be squished and boiled alive under an enormous chimichanga.

The screen test version is better. It's more immediate and compelling because it focuses on the character's faces instead of leaving everything in the dark, and distracting the viewer with flashy costumes. I also like the more distinctive and interesting accent in the screen test - the Bane accent. It's slightly

I just watched that episode - it was soooo dumb. There were so many problems with it that it was ridiculous. In a bad way. Plot problems, pacing problems, dialog problems, logic issues, etc. There was even something really wrong with the audio of this episode - everything sounded like it was coming from a well.

In many cases you can't even tell when they are using models or CG in Star Trek. The only clue is often that a particular shot would be incredibly difficult and expensive to shoot with models. In large part that's because the directors used CG primarily for space-based stuff, or things that were supposed to happen

Wait, didn't DS9 use ILM? I remember that they stopped showing bubble shields on all the ships like in TNG. It was pretty annoying - they switched to the Star Wars approach to shields - something that was invisible, and we were supposed to just imagine that it's there. And from what I can tell, B5 didn't use ILM.

Don't blame developers - blame the PMs and management at MS. Their developers can make awesome products. The problem is the awful design directions that the developers are forced into. And the time limits that they are subjected to.

Windows 7 introduced touch screen support and I didn't hear anyone taking an apocalypse dump then

No way in hell is that true. That would be insane. Windows is trying to copy the Apple closed ecosystem model, but Apple allows other software developers on their systems.

Meh. The places where they had nuclear testing years ago are pretty clean by now. Ground zero in Hiroshima is fine. It all depends on the bomb materials that you use. If you use short-lived isotopes, the radiation goes away fairly quickly.

Which is awesome. Because then you can shoot it in the dark.

Hey, if you post something on a public network, then it's fair game - it's not even spying!

I don't think that's a sign of improved CG - it's more of a directorial decision. Originally, in TOS & TNG they really couldn't do many things - like flip ships - since they were models. But Voyager was made after the invention of the Video Toaster and all sorts of powerful CG tools. B5 had plenty of flipping ships

A LOT less of the "U-S-A, U-S-A" spirit. Or "Hu-Mon! Hu-Mon!". Have some appreciation for other cultures and societies. Not back-handed appreciation where main characters pay lip service to "respect" them but the underlying idea is that they are still better or more civilized - something more relativistic. Give us

Most of DS9 and Voyager was CG actually.
