Re: Did Janeway really strand the crew?

...I seriously doubt the Kazon would fall for this... These would be the same Kazon that think a jail cell is drawing a line on the floor, right? It's odd how many times Janeway makes a perfectly reasonable decision in the moment but later on is presented as if she did something horrible and fails ...

Re: Did Janeway really strand the crew?

I find it amusing that in this discussion nobody thought of the most obvious solution to this problem. JANEWAY COULD HAVE LIED TO THE KAZON! Ahem, allow me to explain. Janeway threatens to blow up the array. Jabin freaks out. In this universe though, Janeway continues that if they give them the time...

Re: DIS: Vaulting Amition

I would have even accepted that he was grey MU Lorca who had been changed by his time in our universe, but still not a terribly great guy.

Re: Babylon 5: Believers

Watching this review after watching some recent Doctor Who* was almost like a palate-cleanser. Speculative fiction that challenges us with no easy answers, as opposed to one that stands on a stage and constantly lectures us from on-high on what it thinks is right through a character that never has t...

Re: Most awesome SF Debris moment?

Re: SW The Old Republic: Sith Inquisitor

Where I feel it falls down is the villain. Thanaton isn't particularly memorable. Maybe it's because he doesn't interact with you that much, or he sounds almost exactly like my old Geography teacher but when he's finally defeated it doesn't feel like some kind of epic revenge has been settled.
