With a mild peppering of the old SatAm Sonic series, turning bad-timeline Amy Rose into a quasi Bunnie Rabbot.

Wish I could be more excited, but the obvious logic to employing Moriarty was that he’s a public domain character and thus they can save some $$$ on not paying out royalty fees, and everything else suggests they’re still chasing the shadow of TWoK. Which is a great movie, but kind of the opposite of what I loved about…

Just a late (but friendly) notice: You are legally disallowed from using the word ‘Mobius’ in any Sonic-related context without paying a man by the name of Kenneth Penders $$$.

Madoka Magica: The Rebellion Story

My grandmother (an ardent sci-fi watcher with a tasteful eye for space operas) sensed that I, a preteen Trekkie at the time, wasn’t feeling Voyager but was still a little too young to appreciate what Deep Space 9 was trying to do, introduced me to SG-1 one late Saturday night on our local CBS affiliate. I think my…

Sonic The Hedgehog’s full name is Ogilvie Maurice Hedgehog.

Don’t @ me.

Get rid of everything about the 2017 adaptation except for Dafoe.

Y’know, it’d be a funny twist if the third sister’s soul is saved when she meets and subsequently falls head over heels for a bespectacled propane salesman from Texas.

They really missed a marketing opportunity by not calling Speed 2 ‘The Bus That Couldn’t Slow Down 2: The Boat That Stopped Stopping’.

Or, more contemporaneously, the Stargate Universe of the Trek franchise.

Q didn’t die, he respawned in an alternate dimension as a draconeqques where, after a few millennia spent in the proverbial wilderness, he settles down with a nice horse and her pet rabbit.

It’s not a perfect comparison (And I’m total music dilettante whose personal tastes are pretty broad and actually rather geared towards soundtracks of movies, games and tv shows I liked as a kid), but I often tell my GenZ co-workers that Nickelback was the aughties version of Journey... Churning out radio and…

He’s suicidal (Bringing it thematically back to what happened to Picard’s mom); trying to kill himself by unmaking his own existence. Picard saves him by talking him down (again the thematic counter for what he couldn’t do for his mom); the rest is history/slash-fanfiction.

Cute blonde forcibly convinces disgruntled Borg that collective cooperation and sympathy and friendship trounces domination and subjugation... Where have I heard this concept before?

Yes. Just shows that while the writers are concerned about keeping in touch with the broad-strokes of continuity (in doing a shout-out to a one-off Enterprise episode), they still continually fumble the ball when it comes to the actual minutiae (not knowing Vulcan theology or forgetting who invented beaming and when)…

To the idea that a Boomer would be staying at his job for way too long past his sunset date, I counter with: Jay Leno (Quintessential Boomer; 1950) still hasn’t gotten the fuck off television yet.

It doesn’t matter what the real actor’s age is... His hair is grey and receded enough that he can pass for a Boomer born in the mid ‘40s/early ‘50s, who would’ve had his encounter somewhere around the time of (the only explicit dating reference the Enterprise episode gives) Sputnik in orbit.

Turns out the actor’s casting and his previous connection to Voyager was a red herring... The real continuity callback was in fact to that other less popular 90s Trek show.

Y’know, it’d be kinda great if Lower Decks did a perfectly straight-laced Star Trek episode, with philosophical meditations and entirely capable and responsible adults, with the subversion being that it’s animated entirely in Filmation’s style. Boimler’s hair is already the right shade of purple.
