Back to 2199, just saw 7-10 and I love every change they made from the original story. The difference of how the "Sargasso sea" was setup in particular was well thought out, the original was just impossible while the new one may be impossible but we have no way to know... Somebody who has at least read naval fiction came up with the line crossing ceremony - a nice touch.

WOW!!! I'd like to make a small suggestion though. You guys have talent, good talent, try making your own universe rather then Robotech/Macross (it can be alien invasion still...). That way you can release it and try to make money with it. From what I see here you can do it if you get some good scripts and actors.

The alien ship designs were wonky, but I rather like the Earth "Fragship" (I still loved that from the preview video. Bad ship designs have been a Yamato problem in every show after Comet Empire though. I hope so, Tim deserves a couple of medals for the work he has done.

I thought the visuals from Resurrection were just fine, hardly a dissapointment in any way. The story is a disjointed mess though. (Being from the US I don't see any anti-US vibe to it either, it might be there but since there is a VERY strong anti-UN lobby here to begin with it hardly makes an impression)

Not a single mention for Captain Scarlet or Space 1999 yet? Captain Scarlett had me hooked as a kid, still a decent show today when I watched it on Netflix - certainly more intelligent then most kids shows. Space 1999, with all it's flaws, was still a masterpiece in some ways. I've said it before and I'll say it again the "Dagon's Dragon" episode is one of the scariest things I've ever seen.

And if their license does not require approval before they publish anything I would be surprised. (normally approval would be carte blanche but if they tried something offensive...)

Studio money people don't think they way, they think "Movie X is coming out - that will be the next big thing and we have to catch part of that action". There is some truth to it as well, look at the Superhero movie genre at the moment - but at some point they will become "tired" and "stale" and then the next thing will come along. (go back far enough and you have the Cowboy movies, the scifi movies, the monster movies, the counterculture movies of the early to mid seventies)

He really is, even when I don't agree with his opinion he always gives enough of a description for why he did or did not like a film for me to decide if I would like it or not. Other reviewers, not so much. Only exception was the time he went off the deep end about something - I don't even remember what it was, perhaps he was on some kind of medication at the time and needed his dosage changed.

Dynaman replied to UN Spacy's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
It does? Perhaps I am dense. For proof that this MUST be an alternate universe - the Feds know what the Romulans looks like, original series makes it clear they were never seen in person till "Balance of Terror". Even Enterprise does not mess this up - the Romulans were never seen (although they had warp drive, which also puts Enterprise in an alternate universe from the original show)- 1020 replies

So the official line goes, but there were enough changes that had to of happened before that for me to say it was a close alternate and never the original.- 1020 replies

It was more then just a timeline change, the old timeline is still there - Spock Prime was thrown into an alternate reality and not just thrown back in time.- 1020 replies

I saw the movie on demand and had no problem hearing Baine - which surprised me after the comments I had read. My guess is they must have tweaked it since my hearing is not the best.

Just watched this. I thought it was going to be a severe slam on the US (which it was) but was pleasantly surprised when it was a slam on the whole planet (Finland excepted). The bit where North Korea claims the spaceships from the moon were made there was great. I could do without the lady in NYC saying the F bomb about 100 times in 4 minutes. Well worth the rental, but will probably not watch it a second time.

Saw the film yesterday. Went to the matinee to keep down on the crowds but all the old coots (me included) showed up anyway... Either the evening showings are completely full or it is just a reflection of the audience for this movie. On to the short review. A very good film, but not great. It plods along after a certain point, which keeps it from getting an A+ review from me, but certainly a B+ to an A. All of the performances in the movie are first class but as usual a special award goes to Daniel Day Lewis' portrayal of Lincoln, the guy is simply the best actor alive today. Sally Field did an excellent job as Mary Todd Lincoln as well. Finally another special mention for Tommy Lee Jones as Thaddeus Stevens - the man usually gets action roles that require little acting talent, this showcased just how good of an actor he really is. This is going to be in my Blu-ray collection when it comes out.

Battlestar Galactica Discussion IV with Blood And Chrome
Dynaman replied to 505thAirborne's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I HATE watching things on my PC rather then my TV. Really all there is to it. Well that and wanting to be able to watch it all in one sitting rather then in 10 minute chunks over the course of a few weeks. In the meantime I've got the original show and the Razor movie to watch.- 700 replies
