Obviously, what will happen is that Spock will put a stop to it, we wind up seeing the Enterprise flying overhead and we'll abandon all previous religions to worship the great bird of the galaxy that saved us.

Wishful thinking, but wouldn't it be nice if Anna Torv got a good part in the next Star Wars?

So, it's a found footage version of that Doctor Who story: The Waters of Mars, but on Europa and without the Doctor? Or the unsuccesful first expedition from 2010?

I wasn't aware it was actually highly rated. That all those Marvel movies are succesful is kind of a mystery to me, but surely everyone can agree that the Avengers is just a bloated popcorn mess, right?

Interesting detail, the earthquake fish also became a symbol of prosperity as the destruction of Edo lead to something of an economic boom for the lower classes. The work required for rebuilding the city meant that a lot of money flowed from the upperclass into the pockets of the lower classes busy with doing all the…

Not enough money of course. I'll be interested to see though, if they ever make a new tv show, how they'll tackle this new style of engineering section on a tv budget.

My problem isn't so much the lack of an apparent availability of a toilet, it's the fact that even if it slides out of the wall, it's the indignity of having to do it in full view of any onlookers. One would hope that the transparent wall could turn opaque in such a situation.

Well, that would have been better. I agree. The original concept art is more in line with that too.

Funny, I guess these things really just depend on your own perspective. I just think that to move a big heavy vessel for long periods through space at mind boggling speeds, you're going to need engines that take up a little more space than an Ionian column. I agree that it all looks rather low tech right now, but the…

I don't know, if there was a power malfunction, I'd rather have someone locked up behind a wall of an actual material instead of an energy field. My question is, that cell seems awfully bare and empty, what do you do if you're in there and you have to go where everyone has to go?

Part of the problem is that the two sets look like they belong on different ships. I wouldn't mind a slightly less shiny bridge and a little more space age in engineering.

I love that film to pieces and the design of it is brilliant. Of course it's not a place you'd want to live, but that's why it's a dystopia. Gilliam did think about the design and all of it reinforces the themes of the film, rather than just be decorations.

How can they be so brutal to brutalist architecture.

I always thought Gattaca would have been a pretty stylish place to be oppressed in. What with the Frank Lloyd Wright architecture, vintage cars and slick suits.

Well, I suppose that's a pretty good reason. All those nice brass surfaces must have been tricky to get right on screen. Still, I'm not sure such a rigorous overhaul was necessary. If they wanted to show that the Doctor was changed after Amy left, etc. then I think a more sober and stark redesign of the previous…

Can't say I'm a big fan of the new control room, nor do I see why they needed a new one. I understand that this one is supposed to seem similar to some of the sets from the classic show, but it just looks sort of cheap and empty. I know the show of late likes to emphasise that the Doctor is kind of cold and alien…

I never quite understand this urge to show that wine tasting, or rather expertise in wines, is nonsense. Taste like any of the senses is subjective, why there's this need to constantly prove that wine tasting isn't an exact science just seems odd to me. Articles like this just seem like reverse snobbery.
It's like…

Half the aliens on most of the tv shows were pretty much indistinguishable from each other. The tv klingons were the only ones who had such a uniform look. The movie klingons tended to be more varied. This guy's forehead looks similar to the Klingons from The Undiscovered Country.

I had hoped my irony would have been more obvious. Regardless, both timelines have plenty of spaces that rely on forcefields
