Agreed. I'm probably in the minority here, but I'd like to see Boomtown get the Faultline treatment sooner rather than later. The Freedom Phalanx's headquarters used to be in that zone, so the zone arc could revolve around an Arachnos/5th Column/whatever plot to get into the ruins and do something nefarious.

Not any more than Patrick Stewart faked a French accent.

Then it's a miniature PADD, not a smartphone. You might as well get an iPad so you can do all of the same stuff on a much bigger screen without the pretense of a full phone contract.

This is one of the things about smartphone ads that amuses me. They make a big deal about how clear and sharp movies look on them, but who the hell wants to watch a movie on a two or three inch screen?

I mean, if I have time to sit and watch a movie, I'm in a place where I have access to either a TV or a computer with a large screen suitable for playing or streaming movies. The only place I wouldn't have access to big screens is on an airplane, but then I'd rather bring along a laptop or portable DVD player, both of which have a larger, clearer screen than any smartphone (not to mention I can rest them on a surface, rather than holding them for two hours).

Yeah, sorta this. Any villain AT that I don't take through Praetoria is probably going to be someone who got stuck in the Isles (born there or victim of circumstance) and hates it, somehow gets powers, and starts looking for a way to get out of the crap-hole they've been living in.

...bitchin.

Dude you should totally go for it. Take her hot-tubing.

I love you, BBM. Not in the way of the ancient Greeks, but in the way a robot loves a human, a human loves a dog, and, occasionally, a gorilla loves a kitty.

Maybe having pupils turns people into zombies.


Pretty cool trailer, I hope it gets picked up by someone.

Yes, but Patrick Steward brings the sexy.

It's part of Steelclaw's psychosis. Just laugh and slowly back away before you get sucked in

Qualifier: the last Summer Olympics. The '02 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City went fine, aside from a judging scandal and the lame-a** SLC Olympic committee getting caught with their bribery.




And, IMO, using laser guns takes much of the skill out of target shooting, since there's no need to correct for things influencing the bullet as it travels, such as wind, gravity, and the like. Unless they're going to make them shoot through prisms and bounce beams off mirrors to hit the targets, which would be rather interesting.

Well, they'd probably learn something useful from GTA, 'cause they sure ain't gonna learn squat from that class

Crow: Keep the money. Use it to buy a funeral. It doesn't matter where you go or how far you fly. I will hunt you down, and the last thing you see will be my blade.

Mal: Darn.

*kick*

No no, you're over-analyzing here. There is a very simple equation involved:

Nathan Fillion = really cool

Steampunk Lightsaber = really cool

Nathan Fillion + Steampunk Lightsaber = totally bada**

Well, Firefly isn't a steampunk show so, no the steampunk lightsaber isn't in the style of the show. That's not really the point though, it's just a fan giving a dude something really cool.

This is the problem with the reboot right here. The reboot should've been done with no connection between the new and old Trek universes whatsoever. It just creates idiotic expectations from the existing fanbase and makes the writers feel obligated to continually acknowledge the old continuity (yes yes, what there was of it, etc.). It also limits them in the stories they can tell, because people will expect them to rehash old TOS episodes.

A clean break would've let them do anything they wanted, and all they would've had to worry about is keeping the core characters consistent with the originals. If fans want explanations for why things are different, just point to the 'different universe' sign and leave it at that. Don't try to explain it, it never goes well in Trek (I'm looking at you smooth forehead Klingons from Enterprise ).

edit: Plus, with the whole time-travel thing, it's difficult to write a story that makes sense and has no gaping plot holes. Orci and Kurtzman didn't have the skill to pull it off, leaving JJTrek with holes you could drive a red giant through (though, to be fair, some of the plot holes were edit-induced). If they keep writing for the franchise, I hope they stay away from time-travel.

You're not the only one. I hate that damn mission and those nigh endless Blast Master ambushes. Those ******* Molotov-throwing jackasses.
