My F-8 Crusader is back on the table after a long hiatus. Some Quickboost air scoops added.

Sneakers, with Ben Kinglsy, Sidney Poitier, Mary McDonald, River Phoenix... just an all-star cast led by one of the greats.

The 'Hey look at this really cool model build I saw' post

Sorry, but unless I see more than that, I have to call that AI!! -
I appreciate the show runners trying to work around a possible cliff-hanger ending. More shows need to be written as though every season is the last. And I am an outlier, as I liked this one. To me, the wedding episode was by far the worst by far of the furthest farther than farther and even farthier than that! This one though, felt like a return to more serious story telling and, in fact, it could have used more time. This would have been better with more lead-in during previous episodes or as a two-parter. I liked most of the interactions all around, though have Patel turning into the Savior of the universe needed a lot more explanation and history behind it. Having it happen over the course of the season or even the previous season as well, would have been a lot better. As it is though, I am fine with it. Some time-wimey interdimensional explanations about how cause and effect can swap and actually lead to the effect first was fine. Again, it just needed more time to build it up. Really hoping next season deals with more serious stories as that is when the this show is really good. ...and at least one more musical episode...

Hoping for a good recovery for you @pengbuzz!

Change that sigil on his chest and he could be playing Jor-El!!

I don't really care either way for this show, but it was on while I was surfing so I left in on for five minutes. About long enough for... It is this level of stupid that makes me glad I am giving this one a wide pass!

I get the impression that the Zentradi pilot is letting him stumble away. "You put up a good fight, little Micronian. Enjoy the hangover."

Hope so! I've been liking the Brannaugh movies.

Glad to see it is healing up quick, Peng! That paint is coming out nice and smooth!

He needs a whole cask!

I want to be excited about it, I really do...

That is fantastic! Love the little pilot stumbling away like he just had his bell rung.

Real nice art and a lovely looking Elint @Papa Rat!

You know, I was really hoping for a sequel to the Vikander movie, but they got me at Sophie Turner and series.😁

Ooh, that would have been such a great thing to do!

Looking good @derex3592. And a real nice bit of Macross @Cheese3.

Definitely not the best of the season. SNW has done some good humorous episodes but this was clearly an example of trying way too hard. Which is a shame as, other than Mount acting way over his pompadour to be Captain Conehead and the Una/Doug-thing, there was (I think) a good story hidden inside the whole mess. I really liked Chapel's iteration, as she was not flamboyantly over the top, and I would have really liked to have dived deeper into her cutting off Kolby and her friends. Uhura brainwashing What's His Name could have floated a third of the episode with the rest anchored by La'an's decent into villain-hood. If they had done this with the intent of telling a drama rather then bending over backward to twist it into a comedy it could have been a really strong episode. Instead, it was dragged down by the weird hair transitions, the slow-mo walk and having the actual mission solved in under 10 seconds. I did like seeing Kirk again and interaction with Scotty, though his reason for being there was pretty flimsy. It seems the Federation isn't all that big anymore if the Farragut is still right around the corner. On racism, I have to say I didn't see any. To me, what they were showing was nothing more than the usual Vulcan logic-bred arrogance that we've seen all through Star Trek. They were literally stating facts that Spock was only half Vulcan, so yeah, 4.5 Vulcans.

RIP to a prolific and iconic actor. Don't know they are gone until they are gone.

If we want, we could imagine this as a heavily modified/updated version of the VF-1 series that is still active into the Frontier era. These were still used as trainers, but I can see this as a still viable combat version.

Marvel Studios Thunderbolts - May 2, 2025
Thom replied to sh9000's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
It was a fun movie, but it didn't really wrap up its story, the 'bad guy' got a work-around with no real repercussions for his actions and everyone just walked away with dust on their shoulders. Except Fem-Taskmaster. Again, fun, but....
