  1. I... didn't say they were films? I said the franchise was doing a fine job destroying itself without Abrams' help, not that the Voyager and Enterprise movies killed the franchise. And, well... while I also didn't say universally, I DID say near-universally. And I stand by that. The balance of opinion on both shows is far more against them than for them*. Hell, Enterprise actually got Trek kicked off the air, putting an end to two decades of continuous Star Trek productions. It DID come within a stone's throw of killing the franchise. I remember how crazy it was when Deep Space 9 started, and we had TWO STAR TREK SHOWS AT ONCE. Those days were awesome. *I happen to think Enterprise was, on average, better than Voyager, but recognize that is ALSO a minority opinion. And when Enterprise was bad, it was VERY bad.
  2. I don't think the A and B ever got canonically destroyed. Obviously they were retired from service, but there's no indication it was a violent retirement. The E was pretty banged up, but not retired, when last seen. Same is true of the NX-01, if I recall correctly. I didn't actually WATCH the final episode of that one, I admit. But yeah, it wouldn't be the first time they blew up an Enterprise. It's highly likely, if the last movie's desperate attempt to homage/crap on the bullet points of Star Trek II is any indication.
  3. It can hardly be worse than the status quo.
  4. Oh, come on. The franchise was doing a fine job of destroying itself without JJ's help. Voyager and Enterprise are near-universally reviled, and justifiably so.
  5. Oh, did they back off of that idea? I'm kind of disappointed to learn that. I mean, sure it was an awful idea, and (obviously) I wasn't going to watch it either way, but.. dammit, OWN your crazy!
  6. Robot singers? The Sentinels remake confirmed!
  7. But this one has GREEN HAIR TOO. If she were a cyborg, she'd be the perfect character forever.
  8. Girl with green hair! Quality confirmed!
  9. Crazimus Prime is definitely distinct. I'm honestly not even bothered how out of character he is, precisely because of how out of character he is. You get far enough away, and there ceases to be any connection to the original beyond a name, and that's where Crazimus sits.
  10. We could deliver commission fees for manga pages. ... This sounds like a bankrupting proposition.
  11. Thanks! That's a perfect Christmas gift for someone on my list.
  12. I was around five when the original cartoon started, and pretty much immune to logic issues. But even then, I loved space. A rocket base was like the coolest thing ever. I admit, the Ark turning into a giant robot was pretty cool too.
  13. God, and they completely wasted those minutes, too. Superhero movies have a really bad habit of killing off the bad guy every time, no matter how much potential he has left, or how famous his escapes are. It's kind of a serious problem. Also: This is kinda ironic in hindsight. And sad.
  14. I fail to see how turning into an entire rocket launch complex is less awesome. I mean, it raises all sorts of logic questions, sure. But it's awesome as heck.
  15. Bushido Blade had a first-person option.
  16. Our frothing demand for this game increases!
  17. Hey, no one ever specified they wanted optional NUDITY.
