To be doubly fair, that very same movie portrayed the gruesome transporter-based accidental death of a crewman.

Sure, if you’re talking impact trauma. There are other ways to render someone unconscious or otherwise stunned, including very loud noise.

Pfft, Superman gets hurt all the time, if only briefly. He isn’t actually DAMAGED here. Just in pain and thrown for a loop. He’s back up and about pretty quickly.

The problem with these reviews is the fact that people clearly skim them, focusing solely on the often misleading headlines and the comic pages presented. People miss the context, get upset, and rant. In the context of the story (which is referenced in the review text, but no one reads that part), Batman doesn’t “beat…

In this case she is more directly controlling everybody. She speaks through them even.

Oh how I miss Carl’s Jr. There’s only one within like 100 miles of me. I used to live down the street from it. Now it’s an hour’s drive away.

I guess that’s subjective. There are some really terrific cues in the series, but they are deliberately short cues that can be recycled many times. Hard to stand up 1:1 against the tightly scored animated movie score.

Mine also did this and I found it incredibly alarming.

You clearly have not heard it. There is some great music in the show’s score.

What you most likely have is the Transformers: The Movie soundtrack. This is the TV series. Completely different music.

You’re speaking of electromagnetism. This is sound. They have different properties. And it’s not so much that devices would have interfered with each other. It’s the PRODUCTS of those devices intersecting that would have been interfering. For example, consider two high pressure water hoses. Individually they produce a…

It gave me a massive anxiety attack, so... I guess that varies by individual.

The movie that immediately came to mine when I saw this was Superman III. The scene where Vera (had to look up her name) gets pulled in to the supercomputer and is turned into a cyborg freaked me the heck out. Total cover my eyes, hide behind the couch stuff. Every time I tried to watch it. Really quite a thing in an…

When it originally aired I felt like it was a cruel, awful place to end the show. On rewatch a few years later, I realized that the penultimate episode gave the show excellent emotional closure, and the actual finale just left things open for more. After that, I was ok with it.

Secret Wars IS a distinct line of demarcation, in that it explicitly marks a new iteration of reality. But the “sliding timescale” effect is still in play. Canonically in-universe even. I believe it was an issue of Ultimates that had a character taken outside of the normal perspective of reality and shown the fact…

Sure it does, if you compress and recompress, etc. I’m not going to speculate much on the technical aspects of sci-fantasy robot memory storage, but one could assume that a droid as old and long-running as R2 has probably had to really pack in the data over time, some way or other.

Ehhh. Sliders ended long before that.

My impression of Thor: Ragnarok was that it was the best Masters of the Universe (He-Man, that is) movie anyone could POSSIBLY hope to make. Which is a thing I very much want and enjoyed. I can see how people would view it not quite “Thor”.

Enterprise -B is “a little bit unique”. Its design is significantly altered from the original Excelsior class first seen in Star Trek III. It is a design variation almost as significant as the original TOS Enterprise compared to the refit/1701-A version.

Indeed, I read this and wondered what exactly he thought was so different here. The original premise of the original show AND the ‘98 movie were about searching out a new colony because Earth could no longer sustain its population.
