The idea of a Star Trek series centered around such an obviously evil character is of staggeringly little interest to me, and more than a little distasteful as well. In fact, just knowing that this is the direction the current producers of the franchise want to go with it is coloring my view of...
I liked it a lot. A lot more than the last Star Wars movie, and about as much as the last two Star Trek movies in this series. I hope we get more like them.
I saw it and enjoyed it. It was fine, if nowhere near as good as the original of course. If they make a sequel, I hope it turns out better than the first Ghostbusters II.
No, since that was 10 years prior to this movie, and it was clear from what she told Nightcrawler that Mystique wasn't planning on babysitting him for 10 days after freeing him, let alone a decade.
Definitely messy and off-kilter in places, but I liked it. Not as much as the other recent X-Men films, but more than the Civil War movie from this year. I did not see Batman vs. Superman.
Except she had a completely different personality. Or I should say, she did not have Trance's personality anymore, because I don't think she ever did develop one of her own. Not that I think this needs to become a thread about Andromeda.
Never found Gold-Not-Trance sexy either. And whoever...
I liked the movie, but I thought the interlude with Tony Stark and Spider-man was very odd. In the fight sequence he was fine, and the actor did a good job in the role, but it felt strange how the movie just stopped for five minutes to set up a new character who ended up not impacting the plot...
I'll defend to my dying breath the original Andromeda, right until the moment a discount Xena Warrior Princess knockoff replaced Trance Gemini, and series developer/head writer Robert Hewitt Wolfe (of the excellent DS9) was unceremoniously shown the door.
Enterprise was a cool show too.
Godzilla is an especially interesting example because the Japanese series of films has reset itself so many times. The most recent series (1999-2004) used different, incompatible continuities for 5 of the 6 films, even though two of the completely unrelated entries used the exact same Godzilla...
Eh, Voyager was my first Trek, now it's my least favorite of the bunch. But I was 8 at the time, and watched a bunch of TOS, TNG and DS9 not that long after.
Having re-watched them all fairly recently, many for the first time in probably 15 years or so, my rankings changed slightly.
1. First Contact. Easily the best. Most interesting story, best use of characters (at least Picard and Data, and in the TNG cast I don't care that much for the rest...
I just watched "Loud As A Whisper", and there's a scene early on where Worf, Picard and Troi are in the transporter room getting ready to beam down and meet the deaf mute mediator, and out of nowhere Troi starts blabbering on about how nervous Worf is right in front of Picard and I'm thinking...
I hope the movie is funnier than the trailer. It very well may be, it can be difficult to make a funny trailer when you lose so much context for the jokes. But I didn't laugh once at this.
Kirk told Scotty he'd earned his pay for the week in "The Doomsday Machine".
Pretty sure that episode predates any of this no money stuff. It has seniority.
The first mention that I can recall of there being no money in the future is in "The Voyage Home". And it was mostly a joke.
I just skipped "If Wishes Were Horses" and "Move Along Home" when introducing the series to a friend. I may be more forgiving than most, but outside those two I find most episodes hold something of value, even early on.
Hell, they're all better than "Profit and Lace". Season 6 should have...
