    They are old for junior officers.

    Best to start with Yamato 2199. It is a superior retelling of the original show. Ebay is your best bet here in the US. I don't think the show is legally streaming anywhere. The original show is available on DVD and perhaps streaming on a site or two. Star Blazers is a decent version but deaths and a couple of other items have been cut and names changed. If you search for it you can find it on youtube, not sure if the entire show is up.

    I find it to be tasteless trash myself. As for the Kodai figure, in the above pose?

    That fleet that gets annihilated by the Comet Empire. The rest of it, not worth arguing over.

    They almost certainly would have started Andromeda after yamato launched - the facilities that built Yamato would be empty after that, since in this show the Yamato was not just a patched up WWII vessel but a new ship. Just like Yamato they could insert the core after the ship was built. Why? people with something to do are much easier to keep under control than those with nothing to do. Far more interesting is not just the Andromeda herself, the Earth has a whole fleet of ships less than a year after Yamato departs the second time. Though in this version it appears the Gamilons are helping out.

    He still has it in his hand in the 3rd and 4th photos, not sure what it is but looks too unwieldy to be a weapon.

    I have no idea how accurate this site is but it says she will play the Captain and not the lead. So much for Canon on the show. From what I hear she is a good choice acting wise (I've only ever seen her in the bond movie that I remember so don't have an opinion on that) http://hollywood-spy.blogspot.com/2016/11/michelle-yeoh-is-starfleet-captain-in.html

    I don't, since it is a good issue to go with from the original series not being able to live up to it's full potential. It was more than just that last episode, Number 1 was supposed to be a woman in the original pilot but had to be taken out to make it on the air, ironic for a show that preached equality (granted, Gene Rodenberry tried but was shot down). Running through the theme of breaking down that barrier from the original series would make a great story arch for the show - with good writing of course, bad writing and it will be a death sentence.

    She is in very good shape for a woman in her fifties. That last pic however - she does not look like she is in her thirties, which is where a commander should be age wise, any older and they get drummed out of the service. One of those is from her Bond movie which was 20 years ago now. It could be Star Fleet at that time does not follow the "Up or Out" mentality of armed forces today. Sure hope the character is NOT any relation to a known ST character, I hate that kind of thing. Then again, I'm not paying for another online service to watch it anyway so hopefully it ends up on Netflix or Amazon Prime sometime after release on CBS.

    I don't see how she could be the lead, she is older than I am and the character is supposed to be a second in command. Captains might be my age but a first officer my age is on there way out to pasture. Then again maybe the show is about women breaking that "not allowed to captain a starship" glass ceiling mentioned in TOS or they are purposely breaking the Hollywood mold for age discrimination against women. (An example of that would be "The Graduate" where Dustin Hoffman was only five years younger than Anne Bancroft but he played a recent college graduate and she played the mother of a character his age)

    Since it has not released yet it doesn't matter who does the voices yet.

    Incredibles is the one I'm waiting to see.
  13. Dynaman
    After last season people are still expecting good writing on this show?
  14. Dynaman
    That reminds me, nearly time for the Annual viewing of "The Star Wars Holiday Special" (Rifftrax version of course!)
  15. Dynaman
    I get it, I like to be argumentative for fun too but your defending Ewoks taking on Storm Troopers and winning!
  16. Dynaman
    Even more important is it cuts down on the number of extras required. I've heard the "stops blasters" bit too - just never seen it happen in the movies.
  17. Dynaman
    Of course! Why else would Storm Troopers wear armor that doesn't stop anything - including small rocks thrown by teddy bears?
  18. Dynaman
    Bad trailer but might be a good film. If the trailer were an FX highlight reel it would be good - but as a hook for watching a movie it left me not caring at all.
  19. Dynaman
    Everyone must have seen a different Torchwood than me. It was great up till that that last season done with US participation - that was just off.

    Power of the Daleks is being shown in the US on BBC America on the 19th! Always wanted to see this one. Sadly they had to recreate some footage using animation (which looks a bit dodgy but actually fits the old Dr Who look quite well). Also getting shown in theaters via Fathom Events (that will be a few days earlier). http://www.bbcamerica.com/anglophenia/2016/09/bbc-america-brings-destroyed-doctor-who-episodes-back-to-life

    That is one hell of a well done costume.
  22. Dynaman
    Should be adequate - if that FX teaser reel is anything to go by.

    2nd pic, third one from the right - looks like a bowel movement is about to happen...

    Just in time for Christmas. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=194&v=5XPpm-igsRE

    Yes, there should be more news than Show runner quits and no cast yet by now. My guess is the lackluster showing for "Beyond" put the show on hiatus and no decision has been formally made to continue or not.
