  1. That wasn't a ruse - that was a last ditch escape for the Borg but one has to ask "If you have time travel why not do that to begin with?"
  2. Plot armor giveth and plot armor taketh away.
  3. I always took the thing Kirk was kicking was not DIRECTLY attached to antimatter or anything but something out of alignment in the plumbing along the way and JUST enough something or other was leaking to cause radiation death. The thing that bugged me was the direction he was kicking the thing would not move it back into place, more likely the opposite if anything.
  4. I don't remember what actual role he had with Legion - I know it wasn't director. But in TV land what he did have might be the equivalent since episode directors come and go. But since his only move directing credit was a bomb he would not have been my first or second or third choice to direct a "blockbuster"(*). (*) I'll grant you the Trek films and blockbuster don't really go together but that is what they are supposed to be.
  5. I'm still way back in time, just finishing up Season 1 of One Punch Man. Good show. I'm sticking to stuff I can get on Netflix for the most part.
  6. They has some semi-plausiable hand wavium for the saucer and boom design. The Yorktown station where ships from outside dock in the middle after going through a long tube makes zero sense even IN a universe where the saucer and boom design exists. The other more important part is that they wasted a boatload of money on CGI for that effect.
  7. The only problem with Beyond was Idris Alba's character. They had a first rate actor on a third rate character. The camaraderie of the main cast FELT like a trek film - for the first time in the Reboot movies. Though I still feel that Spock is too emotional in this version. For Iv they are supposedly going to get a smaller budget - and I don't think that should be a problem due to the amount that was wasted in Beyond on Pizzaz for no reason. The Yorktown station being one example - whoever designed that (in universe) should be shot. Whoever came up with it for the movie was only interested in visual flair and not a lick for practicality.
  8. I'll go see it - just to see what the new E looks like on the inside. The bit about the director does not inspire confidence however.
  9. I looked and could not find the thread on Star Trek IV (JJ Verse). It appears it is back on the drawing board with the entire cast on board - but Hemsworth was not listed as being in the movie and a new script is being done. So maybe a fourth movie will happen - just not the fourth movie they were previously planning.
  10. With everyone in line for RotR the Millenium Falcon ride line will die down, hurray! Well now that I think about it... The land itself is incredible, very immersive. Only two rides in the entire thing and everything else costing extra is a rip - even Toy Story land has THREE rides (grated, two of them were already there but Slinky Dog Dash is a great coaster for wimps like me)
  11. Yoda? The guy who stood next to the head Sith dude MANY MANY times and not knowing? Able to know he had a clone or kid (which I don't think is true but I won't find out for a long time since I'm not watching) - that is funny!
  12. Nothing new in over a year - I would guess they just gave up on it too. I wonder why they would delete it from the site entirely though. Keeping an electronic version accessible is a paltry sum if nobody looks at the pages anyway.
  13. But Lisa is there on the top line...
  14. I'll watch it when it comes out on HBO, etc... I was surprised how much I liked the last one. The first movie I took my kids to see at the theater and none of us really liked that one.
  15. Rick is on the SECOND line of the cast?! They are in big trouble...
  16. No - or it would have ended up in RT. (or they are dumber then they are accused of being)
  17. The pity of it is there is quite a lot to like about "Song of the South". It would be a good item for a museum showing the passive/established racism of the time.
  18. The laws in the US are such that I don't see them having a chance of winning the case here.
  19. There is actually enough on D+ that I'm interested in trying it. I won't - but I am tempted.
