The Galactic Senate

So, the teaser: YouTube * Billy Dee Williams! :w00t: Never was a big Lando fan, but, with so little of the OT remaining in these nightmare films, I must admit, I was pleased to see him. * Ian McDiarmid! :w00t: I concur, but--you knew it was coming, didn't you?--two things: 1) they're resuscitating ...

Original airing/new was The Walking Dead 9.18, "The Storm." Two-Word Review: Bore. Ring. One-Word Summary: Snow. Non spoiler critique: Watching a station with no programming, no signal, just static, i.e., "snow," would have been only slightly less entertaining. Everything the episode did could have ...

But, then, they never were too worried about that sort of thing in Trek. During the original run there were a great many inconsistencies, and they only had one program to keep track of, which they were making up as they went along. True. And I'll admit, its not a huge issue for me. I have nitpicker...

I watched the end of Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country; and the beginning of Winchester. Neither was terribly appealing.

The Doctor Blake Mysteries, 3.7, "Room with No View." Via the miracle of DVD.

Stardate 2231.03.22: Federation Starfleet captain James Tiberius Kirk born.

22 March 1931: Canadian actor William Shatner born.

22 March 2019: The Mueller Report delivered to Attorney General Barr.

So, I have my playset with my dark siders on it in my cramped room too close to my bed, and I keep bumping it and knocking figures over. Same thing happens to me at my desk. Sometimes someone takes a header over the front--usually Luke--or Vader, Luke, the Tusken Raider and Slave Leia take turns kn...

Though I'm not sure to what degree we can see "period authentic" is really the goal, given the uniforms, technology, Spock stuff (at least through first 4-5 episodes of season 2, haven't seen any since). I think its more do-whatever-we-want. I think you're right. The bridge set in action during the...

The Lost Boys from Brazil

The Shape of Water for Elephants

Man of the House That Dripped Blood.

Heredity: A Very Short Introduction.

What a useless, steaming pile of ideological nitwittery.

What I was after was a refresher on the mechanics of hereditary in organisms; what I got was a lot of bilge about race, class and gender.

Ugh.

Well, I watched it from a disc, but an episode of Firefly last night. "Our Mrs. Reynolds," if memory serves, episode 1.7.

Since, well, I have watched a little news.

Strawberries.

(Okay I'm a little late with this one:)

2 March A.D. 1982: Philip K. Dick assumed room temperature.

Okay, a short fan-fic, which is...I'm not exactly sure what. No matter the title, I guarantee it contains no spoilers whatsoever. So worry not. (For those who make it that far, there will be a few additional remarks after the story.) Submitted for your perusal: Star Wars: Episode IX: Recursion of th...

;) Heck, they'd probably make me as happy if they dispensed with the human characters and made the programs about the ships with artificial intelligences operating them serving as the characters. Make Bill Shatner the voice of Enterprise 's machine mind. That sounds more interesting that what we've...

I'm not entirely sure which line is the Vintage (isn't there more than one Hasbro 3.75" line at the moment?), but I think I have that figure in the 6" Black Series. It sounds like the line where they re-release past figures. I don't want to pay $80+ for the previous release, so I'm looking forward ...

I really like the STD Enterprise

Y'know, the way I first read that, it seemed like the Enterprise had contracted genital herpes or something.

But that probably only happened after James T. Kirk became the C.O. ...

:o :-o :shock: LT's back!!!!! What was the question? Oh, right...I honestly can't remember. Probably yet another slightly altered variation. Yep, back. Good to be back, good to see you're still here. Senators, and posts, seem to be a bit sparse. My guess, and it's not much more than that, on the sh...

The poll says "Star Wars Products," so I'm going with the new 8" Darth Vader Black Series Action Figure from Hasbro. I'm waiting for the 3.75" vintage Revan. Just added Kylo Ren in that size, have him standing near "Grandfather": 53580545_721417514919408_6162993927608598528_n.jpg I've lost track of...

I was gone for a while, but now I'm not, I think. There's still some debate on that point.

The Walking Dead. Anyone else tuning in these days? It strikes me more as Dead on It's Feet at this point, but last night was a wee bit better than the average for the season.

Hello! How about this for an idea: The origins of spontaneous graviton bursts from unstable regions of hyperspace associated with neutron stars. Bear in mind, this is high-grade technobabble--i.e., a conglomeration of buzzwords slapped together right off the top of my head. Feel free to use it if yo...

I'm trying to remember the last film I watched start-to-finish...

Dang, it's been a while. Might have been...Sleepy Hollow.

Yesterday I saw a bit of CE3K...

I've watched Ghost in the Shell a number of times in the last few months...

The TV stuff doesn't grab me; the prospect of E IX fills me with dread...or revulsion, depending on whether I'm feeling optimistic or pessimistic at the time.

I caught a little of Destination Moon on TCM earlier.

If you search for an application called ShowBox you can watch it on there Thanks. I've got a few more weeks on my free month of All Access, so for now I'm good. I'll gauge whether I want to continue with Discovery after a couple more episodes. So I watched the first episode of season 2 last night w...

Sopwith Camel, Air Vanguard #3, by Jon Guttman.

T.A. 2931: Aragorn son of Arathorn born.

Curse of the Mummy's Tomb Raider

And yet again, it comes round...

May the Fourth be with you all!
