It was at that stage he was really not thinking clearly, as well as having folks like Maizlish and Richard Arnold forcing his hand on things, more than before.
Let's talk about the elephant in the room, this series violates Roddenberry's vision big time
- Thread starter Sci-fi fan
- Start date
I feel shame and regret.
Those two abused their relationship with Roddenberry. Was delighted to know both were kicked to the curb by Paramount when he passed.
No need to. You know what you did and are prepared to pay for your crimes.
Me too. I've met and spoke with Richard Arnold at cons here and there. Very nice man, great to talk with. However, I think it really went to his head when he was working for Roddenberry.
This calls for the stiffest penalty possible. Making him watch season two Space:1999 reruns for the rest of his natural life!
Sisko forbids having Worf help me commit suicide.
Not season two!This calls for the stiffest penalty possible. Making him watch season two Space:1999 reruns for the rest of his natural life!
I'm hardcore.
I like the idea, but everyone knows that Gene is a bird, not an elephant.
Is that the final word? Because everyone knows.
But, you were okay with Star Trek: Nemesis badly ripping off STII:TWoK in 2002?
<--- It tried a more beat for beat 'by the numbers'm ripoff then STID (IMO). The entire Warp Reactor was more a homage and intentionally flipped version; but Spock had the emotional outburst because of what he himself felt when he Mind melded with Pike at the moment of Pike's death earlier in the film.I also find it interesting some fans find Kirk's resurrection via Khan's magic blood (an d it's not like Bones have his body a shot of it and he snapped back to life, it was touch and go and he was in the hospital for weeks) more ridiculous then Spock's regeneration to a young boy because of a magic torpedo designed to work on a Planetary body; but somehow when exploded in a Nebula - it's software adjusted and managed to create BOTH a new star and a new planet. <--- Yeah, that really sounds 100% plausible...

Well sure, when you put it that way, lol.
Those are completely different...completely different.But, you were okay with Star trek: Nemesis badly ripping off STII:TWoK in 2002?

Actually, Nemesis was a crappy riff on Le Morte d'Arthur by Sir Thomas Malory. Obvious and ham-handed.
For instance, they are from two totally different movies.
Wait, the Genesis Torpedo also created the star? How is it that it never occurred to me that there wasn't a star there before! Were there hundred page threads detailing this from the before time when I wasn't a board member?
Why do people not seem to get that The Naked Now was an intentional remake? It wasn't like they were sneaky about it. They even reference the original episode in the episode. But 30 years later fans still complain that they did something crooked.
Thank you for recognizing that both things are possible. (I haven't talked to him in nearly 30 years! Yikes!)
Bah ru nata Hallelujah....... I'm not an ordained minister, I'm trying my best....
CLASSIC
Latter is obviously way more ridiculous. But it was dramatically much (MUCH!) better.I also find it interesting some fans find Kirk's resurrection via Khan's magic blood (an d it's not like Bones have his body a shot of it and he snapped back to life, it was touch and go and he was in the hospital for weeks) more ridiculous then Spock's regeneration to a young boy because of a magic torpedo designed to work on a Planetary body; but somehow when exploded in a Nebula - it's software adjusted and managed to create BOTH a new star and a new planet. <--- Yeah, that really sounds 100% plausible...
(Also, I think the star at least was just some nearby star)
Wait, what was the topic?
Something about Gene Roddenberry's glasses or something
How many "runaway bride" episodes have there been?
