    The Classic/Retro Pop Culture Thread

    It was a little less obvious this time. Mr. Magoo? Hmm...maybe. Too bad Crockett wasn't in the room. He did have a couple of scenes where he made the guys uneasy with questioning. They might've, I didn't catch the baby's name. IMDb indicates that they were Blue Chip Stamps. Attributed to...

    TOS Turbolift

    Do you know if Shatner himself ever encouraged the episode directors or writers to direct or write scenes so Kirk would be shirtless? I read some articles which reported that Shatner was more than happy to go shirtless early on in the series but maybe not so much later on.

    TOS Turbolift

    More likely they wanted to boost ratings among female viewers by getting their male lead's shirt off frequently. At the time, they figured the big draw for the ladies would be Shatner, rather than Nimoy as it turned out. Not exactly. KIRK: Lieutenant, are you wearing your hair differently...

    Is it just me or is Batman not a great hand-to-hand fighter in the Burtonverse?

    Maybe depending on the country? In many ways, the original Tim Burton Batman patterned itself like a slightly more serious version of the Adam West batman, leaning heavily into the camp, and if it's got an R rating, it's likely due to Nicholson's Joker.

    Is it just me or is Batman not a great hand-to-hand fighter in the Burtonverse?

    Yep, Bat-Gadgets were his stock and trade. A big part of the "gag" in Batman '66.

    Wasn't the first Burton movie originally R?

    Is it just me or is Batman not a great hand-to-hand fighter in the Burtonverse?

    To be honest, I think they were all like that up until Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy. Might have something to do with the ratings they were hoping to achieve and the merchandising opportunities, and the kinds of violence they could show on screen. It's much more difficult to market toys to kids if...

    Re-Watching DS9

    ...in attraction or romantic feelings. Doesn't mean I particularly enjoyed seeing Odo like that, but I can see the point. I'll edit the ratings later on, when I'm more awake. I just pulled an all-nighter going through my favorite Babylon 5 episodes from the first half of the series. Finally...

    Top 10 DS9 Episodes: 1st Half of the Series

    Sorry it took three weeks, but here's my ranked Top 10 Episodes of Babylon 5. Originally, I was going to post this in a separate thread in the SF&F Forum, but I'm not going to feel comfortable doing that until after I've finished the fifth season. And this has been my audience here anyway, so...

    What games are you playing currently?

    I finished the main story but only because once I start something I must finish it even if it isn't what I thought it was and feel disappointed. It got a little better when Jesse gets her levitating powers, that kind of made things more fun but the same enemy types and such were my biggest let...

    Starfleet Academy Official Trailer

    ...full seasons of Section 31, and due to a contractual commitment with Michelle Yeoh are required to produce all five seasons regardless of ratings and critical reception. And then there's the astonishing return of William Shatner as James T Kirk, done in response to fan requests and a desire...

    DC Cinematic Universe ( The James Gunn era)

    althought the early days of the snyderverse had high ratings and made buttloads of cash i wonder if the gunnverse is gonna be huge like the mcu was and at the same time will be huge like when the synderverse was

    Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley developing Star Trek reboot for Paramount

    ...as it used to be. The world has changed. We don't watch just three or four TV stations any more. Doctor Who fans in the UK complain its ratings have gone down. Well, so have the ratings of the shows that have traditionally beaten it in the ratings, like Coronation Street. I mean, there may...

    What are your controversial Star Trek opinions?

    I've heard this before. And I have no doubt there is some truth to it. But it also follows the dimmer, moodier lighting of The Motion Picture and The Wrath of Khan. It has a more "movie" look to it. I don't think the D ever looked cooler.

    What are your controversial Star Trek opinions?

    At that point I think those sets were older than seven years. I mean some of them go back to TMP. Then some of them would continue another seven years on Voyager.

    What are your controversial Star Trek opinions?

    The exterior, at any rate. The state of the seven-year-old television sets are the reason why the interior scenes are so dimly lit.

    Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley developing Star Trek reboot for Paramount

    ...in a new direction on the television front, and they don't see Secret Hideout being the right fit for that endeavour. Or, sure, because ratings aren't hitting internal benchmarks, or they want to put the TV front on hiatus in general, or somebody doesn't like the way Kurtzman takes his...

    Spoilers Vince Gilligan's Pluribus starring Rhea Seehorn

    I just finished watching the first episode of Pluribus, and part of the second. Between Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, and now Pluribus, Vince Gilligan is three for three! On the surface, an extra-terrestrial influence taking over Earth sounds like "so bad it's good" '50s sci-fi B-movie...

    Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley developing Star Trek reboot for Paramount

    Forgive me but my interpretation of this exchange following a criticism of SNW's aesthetic... ...is that the recreation of an identical set a la In a Mirror Darkly is either preferable to the modernisation seen in SNW or is at least a viable course of action for a show set on the dash-nothing...
