Nice! I hope you enjoy it. I’m not really that much into Lego myself, but even if I was, the almost C$500 price tag would rule it out for me anyway. But I do have to give props to the fine people at Lego: they set the Canadian price lower than the straight exchange from USD ($490 vs. $561 if...

...data that the streaming services keep hidden away under lock and key? Even if we were to ignore the comment sections we still have The ratings chasm - the difference between "professional reviewers" and audience scores Trades (IGN, Variety, Hollywood Reporter) discussing fan...

The Berman era is what got me into Trek, but I tend to reflect with mixed feelings. TNG was my bread and butter, and I loved DS9, but DS9 had less of a Berman footprint than the other shows. For me, VOY started out strong but got weaker as it went along, and I never warmed to ENT.

That may well have played into the Corbomite shirtless walk; Roddenberry seemed to think in those terms. But I suspect the director wanted to convey the sense of "gritty intimacy" that you see in the better WW II sea battle movies, where the men are raw and personal, and a "you are there"...

Indeed. I think TWOK took more than a little inspiration from BOT.

For that matter, it seems everyone and their dog claims the appeal of TNG is its optimism and focus on science and exploration and that it wasn't "pew-pew action." Yet, topping the lists of fan favorite TNG episodes are Yesterday's Enterprise and TBOBW. The former set in an alternate timeline...

Quite so. I should add that while I am critical of "Balance of Terror" and critical I think for good reason, I still very much enjoy the episode. Having something intellectual to offer is not a criterion for being a good episode. Even if I don't rate it as highly as others do, that doesn't make...

Don't forget the Formal Hearing in Mudd's Women (with hot women and sweaty men) where Harry Mudd is exposed for illegal operation of a vessel: Video sampling...

One of the most popular TOS episodes, frequently at the top of lists of favorites, is "Balance of Terror," which is little more than a thinly-disguised remake of The Enemy Below. It has nothing intellectual to offer, unless you count cat-and-mouse battle tactics. The subplot involving prejudice...

They probably just did it to avoid paying the actor the higher rate... but the scene where Admiral Henry responded to Adm. Satie's meltdown by simply walking out of the courtroom is still pretty awesome.

As for spoilers, one of the worst rated episodes of this series has finally come to have some importance in the story.

...Treks) was a retreat, a massive step backward of a franchise, an industry, bowing to changing cultural winds and terrified of declining ratings in the changing media landscape at the turn of the Millennium. Captain Bakula, Trip W. Bush, Tits McEars, and the War on Terrible Sphere Builders...

My theory regarding that episode was that they had decided to dismiss Jennifer Lien at that point. So, they decided to take her character's main gimmick and just turn it up to 11 for one episode. This includes her living out a full life in those 9 years. Included in that was exploring how...

Fair enough, in the same way that Superman: The Movie tried to approach its subject with verisimilitude and naturalism, but still had a liberal dose of Silver Age comics ludicrousness in spite of itself. And the Burton movies, despite their professed aspirations, did somehow manage to emulate...

But does that calculate in all the tax breaks and incentives movie studios are given?

That's true. Indeed. He was infamous for his poor driving skills. :rommie: That's cool. Make the guys step back and question their own competency. Interesting. Maybe there were regional variations or something. We had Green Stamps around here. And I don't think you could pick stuff up, I...

It took some digging to get there but here is the Companies House link for the film's production company - https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/14440992/filing-history If you add up the cost of sale row across the various years then the figure of $600m isn't far...

Uh? I'm not an expert on American rating system, but the violence is cartoonish, there is no drug and the sex is only implied.

I don't know if was actually rated R, but I do remember the first trailer I saw was "approved for all audiences".

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...
