Burns and Mr Blinky: I'm set.

As someone who never understood the attraction of watching team sports, or any sports, the whole thing of bringing back alumni to support the team, yadda yadda yadda, makes no sense to me. I don't get teary-eyed at the thought of going back to my colleges, or any of that. I'm not a joiner. The...

Star Trek: Nemesis is essentially Wrath of Kahn for the Next Generation. The Enterprise episodes you mentioned (which also threw in so many other excuses (why Kahn's name sounds so similar to the inventor of Data, Lore, and Beta; why Klingons started to look different, etc). The thing is, there...

Early accounting was "1, 2, many." This lead to problems, as "Many enemies are coming over the hill" could mean 4-5, or an army, thus the chief didn't know whether to arm a few soldiers to protect the tribe, or run for the hills. Thus the invention of "Smeg-loads." This was very helpful, and...

Or Finnegan, the academy nemesis. Or just create a new character and storyline entirely. Maybe something (gasp) original? Or at least not something they've tried to rehash 4 or 5 times already?

THANK YOU! Moffet is a great writer, but his take on the show just about turned me off completely with series 5 Yes! I have a whole rant on that too. KU as McCoy was the only redeeming part of JJATrek. Highlander 2 could have been good, had they taken their own advice and put all of the...

Problem with Christian Bale is he has no emotions. Ever notice how he almost always plays character who are emotionally repressed or crippled? It turns him into a cardboard cut-out. I haven't seen him be in any way a real person since Reign of Fire.

Yeah, that's about it. Ford could only be away from facilities for a few minutes, so the whole choreographed scene was dumped. "We need this filmed today." "I can't do it. He's sick." "Do it anyway." "What am I supposed to do, have Indiana Jones just shoot the guy?" "... um... yeah. That could...

CSI (LV) ruined when Danson and Shue took over. Not so much by the actors as by the incredibly lazy writing. L&O: flashbacks to watching it with my ex wife. Seriously bad associations. CSI:NY when they stopped being about solving crimes and made it more of a soap opera. Really the worst was...

I will admit to being wrong. Watched season 2 only out of curiosity, and it was a major improvement. They ditched most of the slimy and raunchy sex, and stuck to the machinations of telling the story. First 2 episodes ditched the annoying side-threads and turned the show from a broad soap-opera...

I welcome the day when Michael Bay is responsible for a good movie.

Fixed for you. :D

Megan Fox may make explosions in teenage boys' pants, but that doesn't make for a good movie. (not a bad movie, but not a good movie) I want something more. This looks like they took Amazing Spider-Man's set-up and redressed/refluffed it for TMNT

Michael Bay = gonna suck. Pointless slow-mo, digitized fog-horn when there's no other way he can think of to say "this is important and/or impressive" (assuming Bay thinks at all), shakey cam, and odious flashing lights. It would be nice if they would eventually make a version of TMNT that...

Kind of an out-there suggestion and I'm not sure it would work anymore: Nicholas Brendon (Xander from Buffy). I once thought he could pull a young Han Solo, but that was 10 years ago. For a middle-aged version: how about Bruce Campbell? Sure, he should probably lose some weight... The story...

The Hildebrant Brothers captured my imagination early on. More modern art: Nathan Sawaya--how can you not love someone who chooses Lego Bricks as his medium?

If they don't have it already, give the non-warriors something like "Mirror Image". Encounter power: Minor, 3 images appear in the same square. +6 to AC & Ref. A miss pops an image, and reduces the bonus by 2. An area effect will blow out all three images at once as well as possibly hitting the...

Wow. Gloating. Over that. (sigh) Missed point entirely. Silly choices? How about Joanne Lumley as the old, retired JEM, training her daughter (whoever) to follow in her path as the New JEM. Get Penelope Kieth or Judi Densch to play the battered veteran manager and the seasoned voice coach...

Wow. I really don't feel we have anything in common to talk about. That's like, 0 common ground. I suggest we cease derailing this thread, and return it to the original purpose.

OK, so you didn't like that one. Did you like ReBoot (the cartoon)? Same studio. I don't analyze industry jobs: I look at the quality of the result. The primary impediment to quality in most movies is Writing. Sometimes it's basic concept. But more often writing. If anything, I'd like to expand...
