Star Trek VI is a bajillion times better than The Wrath of Khan. So is III and IV for that matter.
Or, there’s the good one!
Did she not mean “only customer on New Year’s Eve”? I thought that’s what was implied, not the only customer ever. That’s what I took from it anyway.
Man, of all the things to ding Voyager for - and I say this as someone who’s written two books on the series - not having a counsellor is a strange one.
Star Trek V just isn’t that bad
Loki is more Legends Of Tomorrow, except for the bits where it’s Setup: The TV Show, and also Legends of Tomorrow does Legends Of Tomorrow better than Loki does Legends Of Tomorrow.
I wouldn’t even rank TWOK in the top three of TOS movies, never mind overall, but that’s just me.
Undiscovered Country is the best Star Trek film bar none.
And as a side note, Space Seed is complete shit.
I genuinely laughed out loud at Karvanista’s “I’ve got a human in this fight!”. It finally seems Chibnall has figured out this whole “comedy” thing and he’s writing things that actually work. Neither episode this season has been perfect, but the show is so much more unclenched and relaxed than (especially) the first…
I don’t know if it’s cheating but certainly “The Day Before You Came” is one of the best singles ever released. And I have a real soft spot for Under Attack - it’s not on a par with the material from The Visitors but it’s still a fun, 80's synth-y single.
What would your favourite album of theirs be?
Voulez-Vous is a weird album overall - their only outright disco album, and the only one in their back catalogue not to be better than the album that precedes it. It’s bizarrely over-represented in this list.
Solid? It’s scarcely even adequate. No “The Day Before You Came”, no comment. Where’s the Kraftwerk-esque “Me And I”? The Visitors* stunning title track? The massively underrated stomper “Summer Night City”? “Andante Andate”’s absolute filth, or the glorious fuck-you of “So Long”? “Eagle”’s soaring widescreen bravado o…
This. Please stop doing Time Lord stories. It makes the world of Doctor Who seem so incredibly small (that criticism goes for all the revived show showrunners, not just Chibnall).
I mean, to be technically fair, we’re only two-thirds through what Chibnall is doing with the Timeless Child arc, so uh... maybe he can pull it out the bag?
His Big Finish work, alongside Night of The Doctor.
The Master was actually killed though. He was proper-dead and resurrected for the Time War, according to Utopia. Sure it’s a throwaway line and hardly a challenging retcon but still - the Master for-real died.
