If you had watched you would have seen they killed the whole temporal cold war thing at the start of season4 (and as I remember didnt touch it in season3).
The trick to using bittorrent and not getting in trouble with asshats is to use Azureus (java client) with the latest sun java and a plugin called "safe peer" it keeps the bad ip's out (mostly).
The problem I have with WOK is that I first got HBO about the time it came onto cable. HBO must have played that film 24/7 for about 2-3 years. I hate that film just for ending up on cable TV. I swear to god they showed it ten times as often as any other moviee.
"Where they didn't do fine was with nazi aliens traveling in time. "temporal cold war" has a great ring to it but they did a shit job."
2 episodes that get rid of the whole temporal cold war plot for good. Wahts not to like about the nazi aliens in that case. They Godwined the tomporal cold war plot.
So now sci-fi and fantasy films/tv series are child porn "paraphenalia", this is like when the fucktards down here said bottled water was drug paraphenalia.
They did try early on. I liked the bit with him looking for the pointin the ship where gravity flipped. Also I think if you paid attention to the development and background you did get, he was an inturesting person. I tihnk had we gotten a few more seasons and the quality was still of season four ther may have been some episodes he got more use in.
A good one most people dont notice is the OP to the OAV series Magic Users Club (Maho Tsukai Tai). IT shows the "Bell" arriving and tearing things up the basis for the universe the story takes place in. Once thing a lot of people are puzzled by is why the opening has no audio for about 30 seconds, just shots of it taking out Earth orbital defenses and some other stuff. Then it hits the atmosphere and we get sound as air based attacks completely fail.
Everyone raves over Firefly for getting space right, I thought it was kick ass that what boils down to a magical girl show (parody) bothered to do space right for the brief time it was shown.
"No, the people controlling the franchise ran out of creative juices. Hand the show off to somebody else who doesn't have a time travel fetish and see what can happen."
Well as a quick overview the plot involving Vulcans was they had lost their way. The leader of the council was working with the Romulans and trying to instigate a war between the Vulcans and Andorians, afterwords the Romulans would "re-unite" with their Vulcan brothers.
The loss the vulcans were suffering (and the reason they didnt all act like spock) was they had for the most part lost the teachings of one vulcan who brought sanity back to the race after they nuked themselves quite good.
The story arc you caught some of involved a splinter group of vulcans who had found his "spirit" (that thing vulcans do like spock did with McCoy) and they were searching for his writings. The leader of the council knew what they were up to and feared the return of those teachins as they would undermine his power.
T'pol and then Archer get involved and end up returning the teachings to the vulcan people and the council members growing some balls and finally standing up to the council leader and saying "you'r a loony".
In more recent episodes T'pol is embracing the teachings and starting down a new path, this has started a rift between her and Trip.
I seem to recall the whole "brain damage thing" was related to MindMelding being looked down upon by current society.
For good enterprise, in the first 2 seasons there are a handful of shows that IMO stood out.
3rd season had a few as well, some people like the whole things because it pretty much spent the whole season on a story arc.
4th season started by getting rid of all the temporal war BS in the first 2 episodes. Once they had a clean slate we got the better writing on Mr. Coto. Earth forming an alliance between the Andorian and Tellurites to ferrit out some stealth ship the Romulans were using to try to instigate a war.
I admit a lot of Enterprise was crud, but there was some good stuff there and it's a shame when people wont let themselves see it.
Brimstone I believe doe snot belong inthat group. The show centers around the re-capture and return of souls who escaped hell. Do you tihnk ist a streatch to have one of the hundred or so escaped souls be that of a Nazi. The episode itself was pretty good, because the Nazi had decided to try to atone for his past life and was actually doing good. He was not the murderer in the episode as I remember, someone else was. He also was one of the few if I remember who calmly acepted his fate of returning to hell and you felt for him since he was using the second chance in a good way (unlike the majority of the others).
Upon checking the episode guide I find that Brimstone was fucked by fox much like Firefly was. By this I mean episodes shown out of order and ect.
It may be a lame tech demo, but you either live in your own little reality or you never touched Luigi's Mansion. Even more recent titles like Metroid Prime blow away anything that the N64 could dream of.
The only N64 ports on the Gamecube are the 2 zelda titles, and Animal Crossing (not release on N64 outside Japan so whats the big deal).
Do you even own/play Nintendo games on this generation?
The poroblem with proving it in public can be shown as follows:
SCOX: She's a witch! Burn Her! (Linux is stolen code, give us license money) Judge: How do you know she is a witch? (Evidence please?) SCOX: She turned me into a newt! (IBM copied our code but then completely replaced the copied code.) Judge: A newt? (You have some kind of proof that this completely differnt code was once yours?) SCOX: I got beter. (No we cant prove it just give us a favorable judgement.)
If you take a/. post like yours or this one, copy it, then replace all the components (text, formatting, whatever) even if it ends up saying the same idea, AFAIK it's not an infringment of copyright, because it no longer uses the same words to express that idea in the same way.
Was Enron just boys will be boys/shenanigans or evil? I ask because it's just a stock/money scam, however it did destroy the savings/retirement/life of hundreds of thousands of people if not millions.
I dont know if this may shed some light on things, but... AFAIK OS/2 JFS is JFS2. This was ported from OS/2 to AIX and Linux about the same time as I only remember JFS2 showing up in AIX around 5.1 or 5.2. I seem to remember it showed up in Linux at about the same time as an optional version of JFS to install.
Blakes 7 no matter how good has 2 things going against it. 1. It's no being shown on TV anywhere that I am aware of. 2. It is not being made into a movie or series of movies.
So untill a month ago B7 fans had nothing but a upcoming DVD release. I'll take what good entertainment I can get and Firefly movies will be at least that.
Maybe one day we will be lucky and get good re-makes of shows like Blakes 7 and The Prisoner.
So besides the girl in the suitcase, please explain the elements it copies from Outlaw Star? It's not like Mal has a special gun, or there are space monks with nifty spiritual powers blasting around. or that (IMO stupid) light fighters that punch each other. Really the only Item to me that looks like it came from Outlaw Star was the girl in a suitcase, but frankly compact cryo of a contraband person isnt that surprising and frankly I'm sure it's been done elesewhere.
Some people say a man is made out of mud well a poor man's made outta muscle and blood Muscle and blood and skin and bone and a mind that's weak but a back thats strong
I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine Picked up a shovel and I walked to the mine I hauled Sixteen Tons of number 9 coal And the straw-boss said, "Well, bless my soul"
You haul Sixteen Tons, whadaya get? Another older and deeper in debt Saint Peter don't you call me cause I can't go I owe my soul to the company store

What about Shran, I think he stole the spotlight in any episode he was in.

You consider law and order writing good? Wow, and you complain about enterprise.

So like Sci-Fi Masterpiece Theater?

"Orion Syndicate? With three almost-naked girls doing erotic dances?"
I seem to remember something about Orion slave girls and the Syndicate from TOS (Menagerie part II, Journey to Babel, and the Cage I think).
"No, the people controlling the franchise ran out of creative juices. Hand the show off to somebody else who doesn't have a time travel fetish and see what can happen."
They did that in the 4th season.

Funny thing about LAw and Order re-runs. With 15 seasons to chose from, you only get the same 10 or so episodes re-run forever.
They did get attacked by a cornucopia (a.k.a. horn of plenty) once.
Brimstone I believe doe snot belong inthat group.
The show centers around the re-capture and return of souls who escaped hell. Do you tihnk ist a streatch to have one of the hundred or so escaped souls be that of a Nazi.

Humm, given Anime series tend to have monosylabic cute creature sidekicks, does it say "chu" or "baka" constantly?
It may be a lame tech demo, but you either live in your own little reality or you never touched Luigi's Mansion.

Just read "A Cantacle for Lebowitz" for hot list action.
Some people say a man is made out of mud
well a poor man's made outta muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and bone

I hauled Sixteen Tons of number 9 coal

Another older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
