Yeah, I got that, but my original unedited (second) comment was irrelevant and incorrectly addressed because I had lost track of who was taking which side, so I edited it into a redundancy rather than delete it. Ultimately, I blame Kinja.

“Bones got to spit out most of the ‘damnits’ and ‘hells’ on TOS, a habit he kept up in the original film series.”

I’ve had the same thought. Most people who would go see it would be familiar enough with the play that they could fill in the rest of the characters’ lines accurately enough in their heads. The biggest problem as I see it is that, even if you only include Hamlet’s lines (with short pauses between them), it’d still be…

Not bleedin’ Watney’s Red Barrel?

O, that this too, too solid (sullied, sallied) flesh would melt, thaw, resolve itself into a dew, and upload into the cloud!

I’d say that it’s worthwhile to point out that McCoy never said “Dammit, Jim!” on the original show, simply because I suspect most people, if asked, would assume he did.

Well, if you’re not into the whole brevity thing it’s an option.

Yeah, not having transporters is a bigger difference than both having photon torpedoes is a similarity, it seems to me.

9“That’s a really big stretch, UNLESS, as I said in my first paragraph, they’re still in business on Earth in that time period.”

That’s not fair! He had them specially made, and he paid good money for them! They’re TWICE as big as the Oscars the Academy gives out.

We’ll, here’s the thing. Other than Harvey himself, is there anybody who would have a vested interest in NOT condemning Weinstein?

Hmmm... who could have helped them survive? Could it be...

For what it’s worth, “overbroad, burdensome, and not likely to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence” is a valid and extremely common objection to a document subpoena. It may even be justified, in that making your subpoena as broad as you think you can get away with is equally common and valid.

WE’VE GOT HIM NOW!!!

When we start saying “Pa-REE” and “Moskva” and “Roma” then I’ll start correcting people who say “NYE-jer.”

And we’re not necessarily talking about sociopolitical context, we`Re talking basic facts of the world in which the pop culture was set. How many episodes of Seinfeld would you need to watch before you internalize the fact that the nation`ss capital was not the moon? If Malloy was convinced (for example) that the…

Except, you know, he knows all about pop culture from 400 years before he was born, but knows nothing about the civilization that gave rise to it (and in which it took place). It would be like someone who not only knows Shakespeare and Marlowe but Kidd and Green, yet has no clue who Queen Elizabeth was.

That, of course, is the MOST important thing, but my heart dropped when I read the headline because I couldn’t remember whether the home and the museum shared an address. JJeannie’s rich, she can rebuild. But I know now the archives are safe, which raised my heart considerably.

It may depend on how you define “sanction.” After all, the terms DO punish Weinstein for incidents of “sexual misconduct,” but they do so monetarily rather than through termination. So long as the accusations are at the level of “sexual harassment” (which are generally handled through civil courts) rather than “sexual…

If (as some have posited) “the afterlife” exists outside of time, then “eternity” and “now” are one and the same. Our (mortal, human) brains are so locked into linear time perception that it’s a concept that we simply cannot...conceptualize. It’s like trying to visualize non-existence (on a universal scale) - is the…
