    News Netflix to buy Warner Brothers

    Looked for a thread about this purely to mention the Babylon 5 aspect, but I see @Nerroth has beat me to the punch. We all know Netflix only bought Warner Bros. for those sweet, sweet Babylon 5 rights. :lol: Mostly joking, of course, but Netflix has previously been interested in having a Star...

    Spoilers Starfleet Academy General Discussion Thread

    I'm actually stunlocked by the 90210 SFA poster, every time I think of it my brain clicks like an old mechanical hard drive. It has to be a joke, surely? Not even saying this in a sneering "Kurtzman Trek sucks, this'll be shit" way; like, it has to be intended as a tongue-in-cheek pastiche of...

    Do people under 40 care about Star Trek?

    ...with my wife of the same age. We watched Lower Decks together before she had seen a lot of other trek, and she liked that even without the in-jokes so that got her interested in the rest of trek. She couldn't get through the original series, and even I will only really watch it in the...

    What are your controversial Star Trek opinions?

    ...lead captains in STAR TREK, Carol Freeman is the most improved. When LOWER DECKS first started, I thought she was second tier and a bit of a joke. (Which, admittedly, was probably the point, as the California class ships tend to be more the grunts of the fleet, for lack of a better term.)...

    Same with me. My wife's first reaction was it can't be real.

    Honestly thought the poster was an A.I. joke the first time I saw it lol.

    Revisiting Haven...

    ...DGAF, Picard screws up whatever bonding crap was supposed to have taken place, the guy trafficking her is played out as something of a pervy joke, in the end, which sort of makes me glad he got f*cked up, in what was basically a shakedown by criminals treating him like he's a peer. And in a...

    What are your controversial Star Trek opinions?

    ...that big of a deal. I would say the same about people who want to pretend Lower Decks erased Discovery from canon which is really more of a joke than something people take seriously. But hey if people want to take a Trek show they don't like and head canon it out of existence that is no...

    What are your controversial Star Trek opinions?

    ...the time, not to the point you could see the whole series that way.) Whereas (as I see it) just about any Orville episode, take out most of the jokes and make a few pencil slashes in the script, and yeah, one could see it as Trek, especially TNG. I think that’s the difference. And again...

    DC Cinematic Universe ( The James Gunn era)

    That as they say, is the joke.

    I was content with Picard's series finale

    ...them. And with heroics from all the main cast, Picard rescues his son Jack, and after 35 years, the Borg are finally vanquished forever. No joke! After all was said and done, I felt great pride the TNG did the impossible and saved all. "Captain's log, Stardate… shall we say one. The first...

    50th Anniversary Viewing (Part 2) The Secrets of Isis "Girl Driver" Originally aired November 29, 1975 Susan Lawrence will go on to be one of the shrinkees on The Krofft Supershow. There's something to be said for a girl who carries chains in her trunk. Hey, Mac, she seems like a keeper...

    Trek guest actors in maybe surprising roles

    ...fun features of his show. -------------------- There is a Trekbbs thread called "Theories about Control from Discovery season 2". I like to joke that Gary Seven, aka Robert Lansing, is the brains behind Discovery's Control, because after all, Robert Lansing was Control in The Equalizer...

    How bad is Andromeda?

    ...alien. So bad. The exploding tactical station with the two officers, was pretty impressive. Some of Hunt's fighting was also good. The joke throw back to "Hercules: the Legendary Journeys" was humorous. The defensive/offensive weapons of Andromeda inside, as spoken in dialogue, are good...

    My own reading Marathon, Fall through Coda

    ...to the plot, but the mourn sub-plot makes up for that, as he's the one who resolves it. I enjoyed how they described mourn, and the in-joke continues of everyone saying he's quite the talker, but us never getting a line of dialogue from him. It helps that he's so expressive in the show, and...

    ...Hmm. I've actually fired a .22. Would it actually kill somebody? Would it even penetrate a human skull? :rommie: Was that Chin's first joke? :rommie: Well, that's no fun. Interesting. I wonder if there are specific legal requirements that have to be met. With a .22? :rommie: Hmm...

    Spoilers Predator: Badlands

    Second time I watched it it bothered me less. I think they could have been cleverer as well. Andy didn't swear and made rubbish jokes so they could have played it as a lighter, almost nervous, get away from her you...you...bitch! Especially if he'd picked the word up from one of the others and...

    Carson and Cobb would be great. Mayfeld can pound sand until a sandworm gets him.

    Spoilers SNW: Ring of Fire by David Mack Review Thread

    ...isn't enough: it turns up a large number of people who aren't porn stars. You have to be a bit more specific to get to the individual to whom @E-DUB refers. So I don't think we have any reason to fault Mr. Mack's research. Which immediately makes me think of a certain joke with the punchline,
