    How cool is that - the anti Picard. Wonder if that can be used to power some kind of warp drive....

    That's Yeoman Johnson!

    You'd think that in the future, they'd figure out how to build a console that does not explode. It'd save a lot of lives. I guess there's no Ralph Naders in the future.

  7. Ten Rules for a Successful Trek Movie by Bonker · · Score: 5, Funny

    1. The Holodeck is strictly off limits. It may not be metioned, alluded to, or featured as a plot element.

    2. Only the badguys quote Shakespear.

    3. NOBODY quotes or signs songs from musicals. Not Rogers and Hammerstein. Not Andrew Lloyd Webber. ESPECIALLY not Gilbert and Sullivan!

    4. Everybody who dies stays dead.

    5. Time-travel is permitted, but must be used as a humourous plot element, and not as part of the denoument.

    6. Villans must be sane, intelligent, calculating and preferrably vengeful. Regardless, all villans must have beleivable motivation. Insane, god-like beings need not appear.

    7. Little or no new technology should be introduced in the course of the movie, epecially technology relating to time-travel or the holodeck. If technology is introduced it should be treated with care-- do not show a knife on screen unless it's going to end up in someone's back!

    8. Redshirts must die by the score.

    9. There must be at least 25 minutes of space battle footage in which at least one ship is violently and graphically ripped apart.

    and

    10. The Enterprise must suffer heavy, even crippling damage in the course of the fight. It may even be destroyed.

  8. The sad state of Sci-fi by nexusone · · Score: 4, Funny

    I am a long time sci-fi fan.
    I seen almost all of the Star Trek movies in the Theater, except the last few of old ST movies. The movies got so badly written, I could not bare to watch, even on video.

    Even with the TNG movies, Generations was maybe the best. I think from the trailer, that I watched before Harry Potter 2. I need not watch the movie, since the plot and everything we given it.

    The only really cool space shows of late have been Babylon 5, Farscape, first season the Andromeda, Lex (though it is just a bit weird) reminds me of some of the old British sci-fi shows.

    I do not know why TV executives think shows need to be dumb down, but to me it is killing sci-fi not helping it and nether does being over PC help.....
