    Once Upon A Time Season 5 Discussion Thread -Spoilers

    Same with me, in fact i didn't even think about them until I saw this thread. I expected I guess to see them depart after mid season break or thought Arthur would have a scheme up his sleeve while our heroes were in the underworld.

    Starfleet is the U.S. Coast Guard

    As the old saying goes is, 'if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck and swims like a duck....its a duck' Starfleet is the UFP's Military. Quack! ;)

    The SINGLE GREATEST MOMENT in TOS !!!

    My personal favorite is the final talk between the Romulan Commander and Kirk in the "Balance of Terror' It was the finale to a wonderful battle of wills and strategy. The final nod of respect the commander gives to Kirk : Romulan Commander: I regret that we meet in this way. You and I are of...

    What was your first reaction to the Spock/Uhura romance?

    Hehe , my first thought was 'Wow so much a better match for her than Scotty from STV" (Still get the shudders with that one :P) However all kidding aside, the film handled it so sweet and so well, it felt natural and thus I was fine with it. I am even eager to see what direction and depth (I...

    Which Starship name would you choose?

    I always liked the name USS Lexington, FASA's Old RPG even gave her a cool nickname (Perhaps even a carry over from the US Navy ship Lexington, but I was never sure) in one such adventure they refered to her as the 'Lady Lex" Which I thought was very cool and classy. She was commanded by...

    Best Halloween episode?

    For me it would be Devil in the Dark, As a kid it always scared me, the scenes of the death and the hunt in the tunnels is kinda creepy. Obsession is another good one to be honest. However yeah 'Wolf in the Fold' used to scare me too, especially the music and the atmosphere of the seance...

    Did the 50's Sci-fi monster movies needed to be remade?

    You know I just watched John Carpenter host TMC tonight and loved his choices of old movies, he chose The Orinigal The Thing from Another World, It the Terror from Beyond Space , Hammer's Curse of Frankenstein and finally the epic Western Rio Bravo! The love he had for the 50's Thing was...

    New Readers - Are we a dying breed?

    I am an old old trek reader...going back to the 70's bantam books when i was in junior high. My mom would snag them and the James Blish Adaptations All through High school College and my time in the army I was an on again off again reader. Whenever I fell behind I noted the title of the last...

    Original, or Remastered?

    I dunno I sorta like both, I have both versions and both offer great things. For me the originals are the best we could get at the time and were pretty darn good. I always had a feel that the Ent was a real ship, and yet in the remastered version of the Doomsday machine I got to see my Connie in...

    Phaser shots that miss...

    "Archons": You make the call.

    I agree with Mr. LB, ,I mean if my ship was not in trouble you would at best go back under to retrieve your lost crewmen and then get the heck out of dodge to minimize the damage to the culture. To just go after the computer would've had Capt. "I did what to the Prime Directive this time?'...

    Spock: First Vulcan in the Fleet?

    I've been a long trek fan and used to watch it as a kid back when Dinosaurs ruled the Earth :P I've never heard anyone, with the exception of outside sources and fan magazines refering to Spock as the First Vulcan in Starfleet. I've always thought that comment was silly myself and in the...

    The bridge design you prefer

    For me, and I did give this a bit of thought it has been and always will be the TOS Bridge. Just struck me as a 'cruiser in space' kinda feel, practical and functional. Nothing overtly fancy. That is why I like the look and feel of Sisko's Defiant's bridge it always reminded me of the look and...

    The ugliest Star Trek costume?

    TOS - The technicians' pajama jumpsuit, that never made sense to me, no pockets and loose fabric to get snagged in machinery...not very functional...unless you Hugh Hefner. TNG - For me its the TNG Uniforms from the first two seasons of the show. As well as most of Trio's outfits DS9 - The...

    Batman: The Movie (1966)...

    Although I prefer the Nolan take on the character and have been a HUGE Batman fan ever since I was little (and too young to relaize how silly the TV show was) For me the ideal Batman series was Batman : the Animated Series...a wonderful take on his dark side and the use of film noire style...
