    Just to back up my statement, exhibit A from November 2019 Lucasfilm’s Kathleen Kennedy on ‘Rise of Skywalker’ and the Future of ‘Star Wars’ There's literally a treasure trove of material from pre-Disney, but you know, it's pre-Disney. Pre-people-with-actual-imaginations.

    They're not necessarily making more movies. They're making their own books to make movies out of. Cuz KOTOR and all the pre-Disney stuff are taboo Legends.

    They say it because it looks like 2 halves of a gun handle. Also, they note this from the comics:

    I kept wondering where they got that idea for the Bat-symbol, then it finally hit me, It's the original Bob Kane-symbol. Cool. So it is a ver 1.x suit. (yes, I'm using the Arkham-games notation) Here's another shot of the suit: It's the stunt double but now that I see it, it's not bad for the Ver. 1 suit. Except for the ears. Too thin. I would prefer fatter ears There's also an additional note about the suit

    Sorry. Only enterprise-use. I haven’t touched a desktop-distro in years.

    Suit feels very Arkham Origins-like. Plates over an inner suit. Not sure if I like the collar. I would prefer collar-less. Now for the cowl...Has a very stitched look to it. Not sure I like all that cheek showing. If they added another .5" to each side, I think it would be better. Robert Pattison has that Wilson Bethel cheek & chin from Daredevil S3 from that suit. The suit is okay for a Ver 1/Ver 1.5-suit that this movie takes place in (This flick is supposed to occur during his 2nd year-ish. Gordon is only a detective or Lt., not a captain and definitely no commish)

    People can scream “actively being developed” all they want. Someone can attach all the names and faces they want. But until a studio greenlights it, books shooting venues, hires actors and crews, etc., it’s all vaporware.

    Yeah, literally had to look up those 2 episodes...and they're gone. Q, literally, has eternity to smack that "holier-than-thou" attitude out of humans.
  10. azrael
    Yeah. In fact, I don't even remember the first 2 seasons of DS9 outside of the series premiere and the 2nd season finale. TNG had good episodes sprinkled during its first 2 seasons but with DS9, I can't recall an episode from the first 2 seasons that stuck with me.

    The Zhat Vash seem more akin to a zealot society than Section 31.

    Or they can say this... Robert April’s NCC-1701 looked like this: Chris Pike’s 1701 was refitted to Disco-prise. Kirk’s was refitted to 1960s-prise. But frankly this is the problem with updating stuff design nearly 60 years ago that was made on what is today a shoe-string budget. It’s always going to look more advanced today.

    So what I read is true. Episode 3 is part 3 of this series premiere. Episode 1 setup this show, episode 2 was all exposition, and now episode 3 is launching us onto this grand adventure(?). And we're picking up more strays next episode...
  14. azrael
    Any VF could be used for decades. It just depends on usage and need.
  15. azrael
    That's the problem with this show. If you were basing this show on episode 1, yeah, it's horrible. You have to actually spend time and get through the first 3 episodes before it starts making any sense or gets good. Once you finish the season, that's when it all clicks and you have that epiphany moment.
  16. azrael
    Childish, yes. But if you had a former employee that publicly berated you, on galactic TV news no less, then come to you begging for something, I would side with the Admiral on that point. No. And neither did the synthetics. People show animosity to many things in our polarizing world so it's not hard to imagine, unfortunately. And considering there werre reports of sex robots in 2017 being man-handled at consumer electronics trade shows...PUBLIC trade shows no less, I'm not just not shocked at the animosity to the synthetics.
  17. azrael
    Sound like what I heard is right. This is actually a 3-parter series premiere. I shout obscenities at my various computing devices at least once a week. That's what those synthetics are; walking computers with gears and servos controlling limbs that do work.
  18. azrael
    Gawds, this week was a much better episode. Since Chibnall co-wrote this episode, I'll assume this plays into the bigger plot this series. And no, not because of the special guest, but future episode reference that had to be inserted.

    Of all personal things to have at a workplace, why have something breakable???
  20. azrael
    Considering the length of the scene, I'd let that go.
  21. azrael
    Kirk, Adm. Cartwright and the rest of them were part of the minority opinion with the Klingons. Also with the Klingons, the Federation and Starfleet maintained a better hand throughout. The minority argument did not have sufficient merit. With the Romulans, this time the minority opinion had more leverage with the burning of Mars and the lost of Utopia Planita. If the Romulans had the resources, they would have never asked for help, but they did.
  22. azrael
    Think of this as a Praxis-moment/Khitomer Accords but with the Romulans. Two+ centuries of hostilities could finally come to an end.
  23. azrael
    Not bad a start. It pulled some TNG-lore has oddly been showing up in my Youtube feed. Stupid Youtube algorithm. On the bright side, at least they acknowledge that Picard ain't a young man anymore and should not be running around.
  24. azrael
    It works because it would have logically followed TLJ better than what we got. But yes, is all a hypothetical since this is not the movie that was made and what we got.
  25. azrael
    Yeah. Don't hold your breath.
