    Oliver Harper's Commentary for "First Contact"

    Greetings: For those interested, Oliver Harper (a channel I frequent for movie reviews and retrospectives) did a commentary for First Contact. (Note: This has actually been out for sometime, so I'm a bit late posting this).

    Joel Revisits TNG Season One

    I'm not a fan of TNG as a whole. I personally felt the show started getting away from its roots after the first season. It took the skirts/go-go boots away (The pain! The pain!) and the adventure aspect. The show changed the Romulans and Vulcans without explanation. Also, the writing (and...

    Oliver Harper's Star Trek IV Commentary

    For those keeping up with 'Ollie's' Trek commentaries, he's now up to movie 4. If you haven't watched (or listened, rather) to it yet, here it is. I also recommend listening to his commentaries on the Bond films, for those Bond fans out there.

    Red Letter Media/Mr. Plinkett Reviews Star Wars: The Force Awakens

    While I was looking forward to this review, I was a bit disappointed. Yeah, there is some crude humor (warning: it gets pretty crude/silly at the end) I felt that he - Mike S. as 'Plinkett' - didn't really get too deep on why The Force Awakens didn't work or why it did work; it was a kitbash on...

    Oliver Harper's Star Trek III: TSFS Commentary

    This was posted a day or two ago. I do believe he's going to do all the films based on the cast from TOS. His buddy Richard Jackson hates the TNG films, but they still seem to be debating doing commentaries on said films. For those who are interested, he did a retrospective/review three years...

    Star Trek Episodes That Were Proposed (Courtesy of ScreenRant)

    I didn't notice a thread like this in this section (since the article talks about tentative episodes across the franchise). Hence, my posting it here. It's interesting for not only Trek fans but for those who are interested in the inner-workings of television writing, as well as for those...

    Spoilers So, Would You Join Starfleet in the Kelvin Universe?

    Some people say that Trek works better on television, yet I say you work with what you have. There shouldn't be an excuse for bad storytelling. However, current big-screen Trek has really (imo) given us a universe that is seemingly very dangerous and dark...things only hinted at in TOS episodes...

    CinemaSins 'Sins' TSFS

    I initially posted CinemaSins ‘sinning’ TMP. Ryan Thomas Riddle posted CinemaSins sinning TWOK. Here is:

    ReviewKingMB Sees Star Trek: TMP for the First Time

    ReviewKingMB is another Youtuber channel I follow. I vaguely remember his early reviews being a bit lenient; he gave mostly postive reviews to questionable films. However, I think the more he's reviewed films (and choice television episodes) he tends to broaden how he looks at films, as well as...

    Reviews are Mostly Positive, According to Collider

    The article (http://collider.com/star-trek-beyond-reviews/) makes a point that the junket press where the film screened thought "Beyond" was a vast improvement over "Darkness." I personally think it's because Abrams is producing the film rather than directing. For example, if Abrams was...

    CinemaSins Critiques Star Trek: TMP

    This was just posted today, with that familiar poster being used for the Star Trek Beyond poster. Whether or not you agree with the site, it's still fun. (And I agree with pretty much all of the 'sins' of the movie).

    Titus Welliver - A Random Observation

    The first time I saw this actor was in the VOY episode "Equinox." Since then, I've seen this actor turn up in various shows. He has his own show, Bosch(which I haven't seen), and I've seen him turn up in Boardwalk Empire (which I have yet to see)....Agents of SHIELD (he was a SHIELD agent, but...

    Star Wars A to Z

    I just realized that Star Wars doesn't have an A to Z. Can we start a Star Wars A to Z? ***** A is for Admiral Statura

    TMP - "What We Got Back Didn't Live Long, Unfortunately."

    So when poor Sonak and the poor ensign get caught in the random transporter malfunction, what do you think actually appeared on Starfleet Command's end? I've pictured a blob with two pairs eyes and arms, a melding of two beings that wasn't a new being like Tuvix but a horrific sight - yes...

    Happy Birthday Tom Baker...

    I didn't see a thread here, so I thought I'd make one. Of course, if there is already one...close or merge this one. I actually got notification on my Facebook where they were showing me a post I made a year before giving Mr. Baker birthday wishes... Here's to my favorite, quirky, Harpo...

    Oliver Harper's Retrospective of Empire Strikes Back

    I watched the 'making of' for Empire Strikes Back on videodisc repeatedly years ago and saw bits of that videodisc used in this retrospective. Of course, these days we have Youtube to see those original 'making of' documentaries for the original trilogy...

    Hailee Steinfeld and Casting Ideas/Speculations in Future nuTrek Films

    My latest Eurasian/Hapa crush - celeb-wise - is Hailee Steinfeld and I couldn't help but wonder if she would make an interesting Saavik in future movies since she seems to have a Kirstie Alley look thing going on in a few photos that I've seen her in. Granted, the movies are taking bits of...

    'Correct' Order for The Prisoner

    This is a random post. I wanted to know if there is a specific order (actually Patrick McGoohan's order) for the episodes from The Prisoner. I know he only counts off seven one should watch, but that deletes one of my favorites "Hammer Into Anvil" and an interesting one, "Many Happy Returns."...
