  1. First reaction - sounds like garbage. Second reaction - I liked "The Frighteners" so who am I to judge?
  2. Just noticed, that ship is MIGHTY small to be packing that powerful energy weapon and all those fighters...
  3. It won't even have blanks, someone off stage would have made sure of that. Ever since that guy shot himself with blanks and died I am sure they only give out guns loaded with them when needed for a shot.
  4. Not really, computer models could show an infinite amount of detail - rendering it would take forever, but it could be done. The same exact constraints exist for both physical and 3D models, time and money.
  5. to paraphrase "A video pre-purchaser and his money is soon parted". On the one hand suing for this is insane, on the other hand the degree to which software companies (all kinds of software) gets away with shipping feces by claiming the software is not suitable for any purpose is disgusting. We do need to find a better line between normal glitches and liability for releasing buggy garbage.
  6. That bit has very very (*) little science to it. (*) - I'd say absolute zero but I'm sure there is some teensy sliver of possability behind it...
  7. Yes, many movies have the endings reshot, the original Rocky comes to mind. What gets reshot, or left on the cutting room floor, is of no consequence - only what ends up on the screen counts. I will wait to see reviews first however.
  8. My opinion is that people made WAY WAY too much of the first movie, it was a great action popcorn flick and it got lucky in striking a chord with audiences. The second two tried to add more meta-physical mumbo jumbo on top the VERY thin veneer the first one had - and since the series really didn't have anything profound to say the whole thing fell in upon itself. That, plus the first move really left nothing to be follow up on.
  9. Sounds spot on if you ask me...
  10. I admire Del Toro's work but this would be a really hard one to pull off. HBO is also the perfect choice as well, not sure regular network TV would be able to do it justice.
  11. The one spoiler I read was too insane to be believed. Sounds more like an internet hoax. (an internet hoax, impossible! It's not like there were any haters already out there wanting to jinx the movie before it even opens!)
  12. Sketchley, don't forget "UN Spacey", no English speaker would ever come up with that one.
  13. As for Full Frontal, although is sounds terrible - I ask you, is it really worse then "Pussy Galore"? (and look where the Bond franchise has gone from there)
  14. When we say the 98 Zilla movie we are talking about that US abomination right? (Just making sure there was no Japanese movie the same year) I NEVER considered that a real Godzilla movie - and I even liked the Godzilla 85 movie with the flying Norelco razor ship. (I think that was Gojira 1984 in Japan)
  15. > There's also neat missions that make you travel in time to the 23rd century and interact with the crew of the original enterprise which was always fun. STOP! You will get me to try the game again! (Maybe I just need to read a book during the long voyage bits...)
  16. Thanks guys, found the thing. Sadly I then figured out the game is just not for me, far too much sitting around watching the ship travel from system to system. I'll most likely play it off and on a couple times a week.
  17. I love the 3 story shorts episode they list, and the wedding of Leela and Fry sounds awesome. It needs to end with the words "It's not really dead as long as we remember it". (and then come back as a Netflix show)
  18. I just started reading the first book, do the books and the show differ significantly later on? Having already seen the show I don't want to read the book if there is not a significant difference, the writing is great but I only have so much time ina day - and there are lots of books I have not read yet.
  19. Hey guys, help out a total loser nube at the game. I've got anomolous sensor data, some lady says to basically put it in the slot south of here. South of there is just a transporter pad. What do I do with the stuff? Any sites for a newbie to go and learn? (the online help was lacking at best) edit - especially with the "Go here, talk to X" missions. Is there a map that shows how to get to X most of the time (I get it if searching is required but finding a guy at Star Fleet Command should not require knowing what level he is on and then going there to hit the level map) (be kind, I admit to being ignorant...)
  20. Wife and I saw it today, we both give it an 8 out of 10. Predictable but well done with only one major WTH (what the heck) part.
  21. It is also quite different from the show so watching it does not ruin anything.
  22. There are a bunch of people that remember Star Blazers but have no idea it was Yamato in Japan. They may be trying to catch that audience. Small as it may actually be. Or they may be trying to re-use the trademark they have on the Star Blazers name for rights purposes. Either way is it a win! SB did a great job sticking close to the original (for the time) and if anyone wants subbed only versions they have them already.
  23. Execution was quite different too. One of the sillier parts of the new show is saying the sub was at the bottom of an alternate universe, the bottom?
