    > but he did not throw a fit about it, Tom himself said he was a "donkey" about it though...

    Wow, they aren't even trying to be discreet. We will certainly be seeing the talking heads about this one.

    My son loves these games, I've heard countless hours of Joker's henchwoman's comments in the background while I was playing another game or doing work...

    The claim was that it had no moral point, that is patently untrue. I shall not indulge in a discussion on to the merits of it being good enough or not.

    Yes, Grow up and take responsability for your life. Shown from both Spock and Kirk's perspective. The rest of your complaints are of the sour grapes variety, old trek fans need to get over the fact that it is not coming back since they beat that formula to death.

    > Apparently it was kind of a "big thing." I never actually saw it while it was airing on TV, and didn't even here about it until after its cancellation. You and 99.9999% of it's fans are in the same boat... As for the movie killing off two characters, just as well since the Franchise is as dead as they are. The movie did not even make back it's cost to produce it (even with DVD sales I believe, although it may have just broken even). Tis a pity since it was a great show and a great movie.

    I forgot to say that BSG fell into it's own trap, being TOO angsty. Yes the Daddy speech was preachy, but at least it was directed at Kirk and not at the viewer, which is how the later trek ended up. You really ought to drop the "inspiring engineers and scientists", if not I'll have to point out all the weirdos it inspired as well. The original Trek was just on at the right time and was different enough from other SciFi to inspire. Later Trek had lost that.

    He forgot the "extra preachy" part about the later TV shows as well. BSG is a great case in point, he took what was good about ST and rolled that into the new BSG while dumping all the crud that ST had managed to accumulate along the way. JJ did the same with Trek, the old morality play is still there in JJ Trek - it is just not shoved in your face in as ham-fisted a manner as Voyager or some of the Next Generation shows were.

    That is an insult, almost as bad as the MST3K clip about Santa Claus Conquers the Martians "these are just cheap versions of the Lost in Space sets...". What are they up to now, SAW 30? Loved ED2, AoD was OK. I might give this a shot when it is out on video, but Bruce Campbel is what made the originals watchable.

    This quip from him about the Star Wars prequals is classic. "To say that George Lucas cannot write a love scene is an understatement; greeting cards have expressed more passion"

    It has my attention, I can't believe people are complaining that a prop plane with giant eyeballs is just as fast as a couple jets with giant eyeballs... That said I will most likely wait till it is out on video.

    I used to watch At the Movies back in the eighties every chance I got. Even when I didn't agree with him I almost always thought his opinions were well thought out.

    New Trek or Old Trek I think everyone will love this commercial for the Star Trek video game coming out... http://www.blastr.com/2013-3-29/william-shatner-brilliantly-recreates-his-epic-battle-gorn

    Most resist watching more trailers. May 28 cannot get here soon enough (then to wait for shipping, UGGHHHHH!!!!!!)

    At the end of one Episode Sheridan was giving the "Kirk Speech" about forgiving someone who has paid for their crime, then he had to eat his words before the end of the speech. The last season did not really get its footing till near the end, the forced nature of the season 4 wrap up leaving JMS floundering around a bit to get the show back on the track he wanted. The end of the fourth season also being rushed too quickly. DS9, I'm still not thrilled with - it still has too much of that ST preachiness to it. Which is one thing in the JJ Treks that I really like - the preachiness has been excised.

    It just keeps getting better and better.

    Final Yamato, the animation on that one is the best of the bunch till the revival stuff came along, the story is a little clunky though (if you are 18+, try to find the one with the second ending, I think, there have been at least 3 different ending sequences made for the movie). The other stuff after Yamato 2 was just not as good and the animation went from poor to decent.
  18. Dynaman
    Come on now, EVERY engine room in every ship ever made had a hidden still...
  19. Dynaman
    I think Arrividerci is that best Yamato ever. Nishi got so upset that the ending was redone for Yamato 2 that he has been trying to off Yuki every chance he gets...

    I liked Prometheus as well. Granted, it has problems which some script rewrites could have taken care of (scientists could have taken proper precautions and something still went wrong for instance) but it was fun to watch.
  21. Dynaman
    Anyone mention Zatoichi? I've only seen the latest one but have the older ones in my Netflix queue.
  22. Dynaman
    One of the ships did not have an engine. In either show the inability to detect Khyron/Kamezin (I thought that had a J somewhere though) is really an intelligence failure of the highest order. The thing is the size of a small (large?) town for crying out loud, and it flew in from the equator or something close to that.
  23. Dynaman
    I do, very much, just not ones that are so terrible. This one was not even terrible funny, it was just terrible. Only real plus is the Samurai fighting the tank
  24. Dynaman
    You have to be joking, that is one of the worst movies I've ever seen, it's even too much effort to go mention in the Highlander 2 thread...

    Just watched episodes 11 to 14, the divergence from the original is in full swing - and I love every bit of it. The sub was interesting but the "bottom of an alternate dimension" was hopefully just a bit of wonky translation
