The nominees for the 2020 Oscars on Feb 9th have been released a few hours ago. It looks kind like a repeat of #oscarssowhite. We can have a discussion that doesn't centre around why you aren't watching. It's okay not to like or not watch the Oscars. Suffice it to say it's not everyone's jam...

YouTube user SCAR 90's GT ran 8.5 minutes of DS9 clips through professional enhancement video software and was able to create an upscaled version and posted it here: Thoughts on the quality of something like this? Being completely ignorant about the kind of work that goes into this kind of...

http://time.com/5429288/china-chengdu-artificial-moon/ Scientists are hoping to hang the man-made moon above the city of Chengdu, the capital of China’s southwestern Sichuan province, according to a report in Chinese state media. The imitation celestial body — essentially an illuminated...

It's exactly one week until Star Wars jumps back into our screens/devices! Star Wars Resistance: Poe Dameron recruits young pilot Kazuda Xiono to become a spy for the Resistance to keep tabs on the growing threat of the First Order. “The Recruit Parts 1&2” (October 7th) X-wing pilot Kazuda...

Are you down with this? It's an emergent possibility as the days between Chris & Chris news goes by. We'd been discussing the lack of a 1990s-era Takei-led Sulu series after The Undiscovered Country in a thread a few months back. Were the Kelvinverse Trek 4 Time Travel Kirk's Dad plan to fall...

When the movement against plastic straws began gaining momentum in the past few weeks, I figured the ban on the plastic straw was inevitable. But would they ban them immediately or wait until a biodegradable option was widely in use first? Sounds like many restaurants have already thrown out...

Diane, We are a very short wait until finally getting back to the weirdest town in television history. Feast your eyes on this new teaser: Has anyone been rewatching in anticipation of May 21st at 9/8c? I rewatched last year so everything is a little fuzzy but never before was I so engaged...

Dr. Bashir is a creep. His sexual interest in women seems to generate when it is least needed - when she is in need of medical attention. I love DS9. I've been enjoying rewatching it these past couple of months but it's become impossible to ignore Bashir's inappropriate advances toward his...

Because that looks like what we are getting! BLUNT TALK Wikipedia: ""A British newscaster moves to Los Angeles with his alcoholic manservant and the baggage of several failed marriages to host a sanctimonious talk show." Teaser https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLBPSSVVOe4 "This is Patrick...

Well these times are finally upon us and Star Wars is coming back to the small screen. Spark of Rebellion, the two part hour long premiere will be released Friday, September 26 2014 via WatchDisneyXD (it's an app) followed by a regular season airing Oct 3rd onward for 16 episodes on Disney XD...

This premiered in Canada August 25th on HBO. I had no idea it existed and caught it by accident but I did see The Captains and I thought that was fantastic. It's remarkable after how much time has passed that Shatner is now peeling back the layers on Star Trek shows he wasn't a part of (fine...

Takei was the final guest on Real Time With Bill Maher last night. Bill is sometimes hit-and-miss (often doesn't give guests a chance to speak) but this was a great one. They chatted about Star Trek (of course!) his rocky relationship with William Shatner and a bit about his family's Japanese...

I thought this bizarre scenario of a Canuck run amuck deserved some discussion. For the moment, this link is live: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZsf4F7Oe7A Fact: Avril Lavinge made a terrible song and even more terrible video. Two achievements in themselves. Fact: Overwhelming backlash...

"Walt Disney Pictures and Lucasfilm made a special announcement earlier today at CinemaCon in Las Vegas revealing that they will be releasing a new Star Wars film EVERY summer after the initial release of Star Wars: Episode VII. According to ComingSoon, the studio explained that the upcoming...

So yeah, we all know that Legacy is pretty weak for a Trek ship/ship combat offering for many reasons discussed years ago but I wanted to share with you all this story: Last year in the summer I came home from a house party, pretty wasted and I put in the disc out of sheer boredom or perhaps...

Jon Hamm & co will soon again be draping all over our screens... and in spring instead of summer. The sixth season of the American television drama series Mad Men is scheduled to premiere on April 7, 2013, with a two-hour episode. It will consist of thirteen episodes, each running...

The future of Star Wars is both exciting and cloudy (or do the Jedi say 'clouded'?) but there is a strong argument for Ahsoka Tano to be included. Were a live action role of Ahsoka needing a choice of casting, who would your choice be for the role? Why? Age of the character would be a major...

I'm surprised at this because the show has basically become a juggernaut. It's got the audience: intellectuals plus Joe Six Pack and that's a big win. So... where are all the nerdy copycat projects and what network will attempt it? What kind of angle will they use to try and change it (nerdy...

I find this fascinating... is this the 'answer' to America's problem? http://www.addictinginfo.org/2013/02/06/seven-states-tell-responsible-gun-owners-to-put-their-money-where-their-mouth-is-with-gun-insurance/ Here's the broad strokes: Seven states – California, New York, Connecticut...

I fully realize there is a fine ongoing discussion here about Mace Windu: http://www.trekbbs.com/showthread.php?t=196870 However, since the news broke about 7 8 and 9 one of the first things I've been unable to get out of my head is... are we basically guaranteed to see already established...
