Nope. Not sure I want to.  

[Darkened Angel]

Yeah, I'm thinking they're gonna do a massive retcon with an even bigger, " F you! " slapped on it.

I haven't even seen TOS and I'm already dreading it.

* starts the inevitable by stating that Picard is better than Kirk * xd  

[Sol Walker]

Frankly I don't care.
Both Captains are simply examples of the quality leaders Starfleet produces despite the fact Starfleet itself is a flawed and sometimes ineffectual government.  

[Darkened Angel]

Q. 'Nuff said.  

[Sol Walker]

******** Q.  

[Darkened Angel]

Not DeLancie's Q. That one was the annoying one. The rest of the Continuum. They were okay.  

[Sol Walker]

If I wanna see some nigh omnipotent beings, I'll stick with the Bajorian wormhole aliens.
Or Doctor Who. He's got a phonebooth.  

[Darkened Angel]

But did you ever see him call somebody with the thing?  

[Sol Walker]

Oddly enough I dont think so.  

[Darkened Angel]

Enigma at least has an actual phone-ability in her multi-purpose radar. She also has every pizza place in the entire universe on speed-dial.

Just don't touch her Chronic Technobabble Screwdriver.  

[Sol Walker]

Yay technobabble.

Actually, the phone on the outside is broken. Several times people have tried using the phone only to realize the line is dead. However, that's pretty much useless considering in the newer series, we see him calling people on the tardis equivalent of speakerphone. Namely people like Rose or Martha.

The actual phone component is broken, but the TARDIS's ability to call anyone, anywhere, at any time in space is not that limited. In fact, if I remember rightly, he even calls himself several times during the doctor mashups.

When making a character, it does help to know the universe in which it is set.  

[Ral Roke]

Good news everyone. I don't have work tonight.

Just saw Wolverine. It was pretty good. Action was really fun, the story sucked, and I was truly pissed by what happened with Deadpool. Overall, I'd give it a solid B.
Has anyone seen the new Star Trek yet?

I was supposed to see it last night, but all my friends canceled on me. So we're probably going to see it some time today.  

[stellarmagic]

I saw it...

It's good fun, but it ain't trek. It's like someone wanted star trek combat to look like star wars, turbolasers and all. The Viewscreen was no longer a screen but an actual window (I kid you not, with polarized glass no less). The Enterprise is only capable of warp 4, traveling at warp looks like traveling through star wars hyperspace. Did I mention engineering was apparently filmed on location... in an oil refinery. Pipes pipes everywhere and not console in sight. Why on earth does the Enterprise got so many steam pipes?

Nimoy was great (Like usual) but his younger self wasn't. Kirk was okay, and the others seemed to have occasional moments when they were on target.

However the one actor that did a slam duck was the guy playing bones, he got it perfect. "I'm a doctor, not a physicist!"

Did I mention that Vulcan got erased from existence, the bad guy is piloting a Reman-built Romulan crewed mining barge, and Sulu has a folding samurai sword.
