    Yeah, the ONLY way that thing is 91 pounds is if it was wrapped around a bar of lead.
  2. Dynaman
    My guess is they mixed up the decimal point and it is 9.1 pounds. Have to be made of metal to be 91 pounds.

    Did they show the engine room of the new ship after the credits? I left before that (can wait for on demand to find out). It would be nice to have a more Trek like engine room for the new ship. Then again we may never know with the Box Office for the film being what it is.

    Justice League Dark? How much darker than the "regular" justice league universe do they want to get?

    I call it simply a missile - our distinctions really have no meaning in SW anyway - what makes an AA missile and AA missile in our world is that it homes in on a heat signature and is not made to penetrate much armor. Those distinctions are somewhat meaningless in SW.

    There is the Batman from the forties, but it is best left forgotten.

    Can't beat an ad video where the caped crusaders are about to be cooked in a giant TV dinner tray.

    Dark Matter and Killjoys have both gotten very interesting this season. I'm still not going to miss them that much if they get cancelled but well worth watching. I am looking forward to season 2 of "The Expanse" however. And now that "The Walking Dead" has disappointed me one too many times I am giving Z Nation a try.

    Just read that Discotek is coming out with a BluRay of Arcadia of my Youth. Please, Please, Please remaster the video...

    It didn't work WITH Frank Langella as Skeletor - though he did a good job with such a lousy part (and I consider the film a guilty pleasure of mine)

    The eighties scarface is pretty dated now, it is a reflection of the time. The new one might not be good but if they are smart they will stay away from a remake of the eighties version and take it in a different direction. Basing the new one on the current immigrant influx would be a political nightmare however...

    RIP, you have brought me hours of fond memories.

    More likely an homage to the Star Destroyer coming out of the shadow of Vader's Super Star Destroyer

    Brave New World is getting a Brave New Remake. Hopefully this one is better than the two existing films. http://www.blastr.com/2016-8-11/comics-writer-grant-morrison-adapting-brave-new-world-syfy

    Hard comparison to make, the best of both of them is very very good while the worst of both of them is very very bad. I really didn't like Enterprise till the 4th season and the mini-arcs while DS9 was horrible till the Dominion war bit kicked in.

    First post said for looks, "The SMIRK" in particular. EDIT - caps not meant to be an insult in any way.

    Only in a Dr. Who sort of way. You know, the kind where 3 different versions of Atlantis exist. > If I remember Turnabout Intruder right -- it's been years since I watched any TOS -- It was never implied that women could not be captains or even that they were discouraged from doing so There is a DIRECT quote saying they could not and Kirk did not contradict the one making the quote. So no, women could not be captains in TOS. As pointed out by Petro - the powers that be decided to ignore it in Enterprise.

    Turnabout Intruder - Direct quote. A whole long discussion on it here where at least some trekkies try to claim it was only the delusional mind of Janice Lester - but as is rightly pointed out Kirk does not contradict her and instead sympathizes. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x8987229

    Since it is in the original timeline and has a female lead all I'm really wondering is if they are going to keep to the cannon regarding females not being allowed to be a starship captain.

    Your kidding right? For the makers of the movie to call anyone who didn't like the idea of the movie misogynists and then make a character that is blatantly a racist portrayal (in the trailer) and then say "so what?" I'm not saying there were not a number of blatantly sexist posts out there about the first trailer - but that does not excuse the trailer. Can't comment on the movie since after seeing that trailer I have no intention of watching it.

    A young Tom Cruise is the only one that comes to mind. I don't keep track of modern stars anymore...
  22. Dynaman
    The only shows with a "lead" character were the original Star Trek and Enterprise. The others were ensemble shows.
  23. Dynaman
    No - it was doomed by a crass attempt at being PC and then making the black character such a massive stereotype(*) it backfired horribly. (*) - at least in the first trailer, which was truly cringe-worthy.
  24. Dynaman
    Don't think it will happen, watching almost all of those old shows just reinforces how old they are. An exception has to be made for "The Honeymooners" and I'm sure there are others but none comes to mind. The mindset of the fifties that most of these old shows are from just doesn't translate well to modern taste. I do watch some from time to time on youtube since it is an incredible sort of video time capsule.

    > and the TV series is far from memorable Pardon? One of THE classics from the early days of TV is far from memorable? Before my time but to dismiss a cultural icon like that is wrong. I was a Wild Wild West fan too but I would never say it was anywhere near TLR in terms of popularity.
