Re: Superman to be cast with a black actor.

Gotta say, I have no problem with a POC Clark Kent. I mean, we got a POC Zod in the Krypton-TV-Series, why not a POC-Clark? Well if you know anything about the demographics in the region where the Els are from then you'd know that that's preposterous. Inb4 that was from an earlier time when they we...

Re: TNG - The Emissary

This character (Troi) was very much a mistake in execution. She would have been a yeoman in TOS AKA the Captain's Bit of Totty. Agreed. I point to her as a science fiction trope in the wrong era. The high born daughter of a heroic Starfleet officer and foreign dignitary who is the love interest of ...

Re: TNG - The Emissary

Yeah, it'd be pretty easy to just explain away the Klingons - they were on a mission that required them to go into cryo-sleep, it malfunctioned, and they awoke 75 years later than they should have, but the nature of their mission kept them from updating the chronometers or anything, so they just as...

Re: TNG - The Emissary

Chuck had difficulties with the episode?
Hm - maybe he needs a vacation. Wouldn't surprise me, after all, he gave us great content over the last - what - 15 years? Chuck, take it slow, we don't want you to suffer from burn-out.

Re: Wait until sfdebris gets to Stargate Universe.

Yeah, I don't even mind it was trying to go dark, TBH. Or do something different. No, it's that they were trying too hard to be NuBSG. I mean, the pilot's sex scene made that quite plain, and that the crew is, frankly, a bunch of unlikable a-holes. Like, really. This is grounds SG had already evolv...

Re: Stargate SG-1 Review - 1969

I like episodes like this. I find it kinda fun to watch established characters in weird situations outside their comfort zone, and time travel is automatically that. Though I agree, some kind of resolution for the hippies would have been nice. I feel like time travel stories need to have characters...
