    Where is Rick Berman now

    The man devoted basically his entire career to Star Trek. What is he doing now? Or did he retire completely?

    Independence Day - Resurgence

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PW_QDmZRaw I love it that the entire cast is back. A pity Will Smith isn't. I also like the set design, and the idea of a moon base a lot. My expectations are up.

    People are getting taller

    http://www.ourworldindata.org/data/food-agriculture/human-height/ I am wondering... what's the evolutionary reason to grow taller? Humans basically removed natural selection from the equation. So it's no longer important if you're small or tall to survive. But what about the actual fact of...

    Behind the Scenes books/sources

    There are a lot of "The Art of..." books for games out there, mostly filled with a selection of concept art. What about actual "Behind the scenes" or "Making of" books, that describe more technical aspects of the game creation? Are there any?

    Pain after numbness

    Something I've been wondering for a long time. When you get numb legs, arms or hands by keeping a bad position too long, sometimes it incredibly hurts when it "wakes up" again. This is, to my knowledge, caused by stimulus satiation after your nerves have been pinched. As well as painful...

    Marvel rights issue - Trek related?

    http://moviepilot.com/posts/2014/06/25/could-marvel-lose-the-avengers-in-the-supreme-court-1564587 I was wondering, would this also affect Star Trek tie-in authors, who do work for hire? Could you reclaim ownership of your creations after a while?

    Poor taste and too soon humor

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g42EG7LD1UY 77 years after 1500 people died in a terrible tragedy, it was okay to make fun of the victims in a mainstream comedy. In the year 2088, will it be okay to make a Ghostbusters film where the Twin Towers reappear with the 3000 victims going to work...

    Stargate games?

    I was researching Stargate games lately, and am surprised there is none. All recent attempts at developing First Person Shooter, MMORPGs have failed already in the development stage, and the most recent mobile game Unleashed seems to be dead as well. What's going on there? Not only would there...

    Perfect end-it-all scenes

    Recently watched The Abyss again. And the CPR scene is just so amazingly well done (not in a realistic way, but in a dramatic one). So intense. In my opinion, every other attempt at doing another “reanimated in the last second“ scene in books or film is just a waste of time, because the drama...

    Stargate mythology

    In the Stargate universe, we had aliens acting as Egyptian Gods and Norse Gods. Now all polytheistic religions have been fought be the monotheistic ones, Christianity, Judaism and Islam. Is the ONE God, and his representatives like Jesus and Mohammad, also supposed to be a powerful alien? Any...

    Starship flyby sound effects

    I'm looking for clean flybys SFX of starships. Preferrably Star Trek. For slow flybys (15 to 20 seconds long). And I'm looking for basic starship... "humming" sounds. You get that a lot in TNG when the ship isn't flying by, you hear just that basic low pitched noise. A web search so far only...

    Other USS Titan designs

    Personally, I dislike the official design that graces Titan novels. I expected something a lot more elegant, not something clunky and rather ugly. I know there was a contest before that design was chosen. Is there maybe a collection of the contest entries available? Did maybe John Eaves do a...

    The Expendables 3

    Apparently, Bruce Willis is out because he's too "greedy and lazy". And Harrison Fucking Ford is in it as replacement. Also rumored are Milla Jovovich, Nicolas Cage, Jackie Chan, Wesley Snipes, and even Steven Seagal. A given seem to be Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Terry Crews, Arnold...

    Generations references

    Stumbled over this little comparison of a scene between Generations and Yesterday's Enterprise. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iN001iUenmU Are there any other homages to scenes from the series hidden in this film?

    Why are Creationists so afraid of Evolution?

    Why don't they see that, if God existed, that Evolution, the result of random gene mutation, would be just one part of the Almighty's big tool box? If he created the universe, he set all the rules. Speed of light, gravity, time, strings, quarks, protons, neutrons, electrons, atoms, molecules...

    Galaxy Quest Sound Effects

    Random observation of the day: the sound effects for the weapons in Galaxy Quest are the very same sound effects for the weapons in Spaceballs. That reference/in-joke/homage just made my day. And while we're at it: why was there never a sequel? So much potential.

    Genesis Trilogy

    Star Trek II, III and IV are in my opinion the best Trek films. Because they indeed boldly go where no Trek had gone before. Trek II kills off Spock and gives Kirk a son. Trek III destroys the Enterprise, kills Kirk's son and the entire crew become fugitives. Trek IV doesn't even feature the...
