You forgot to add having all its episodes aired out of order right from the start. :rolleyes: (Though that actually did happen with the first episodes of TOS) I do think the theoretical would be edgier, though likely with humor. Firefly might not be far off the mark in the show's overall personality. I think it might have…

Tribal tattoos. Wonder if that means Jennifer Lien as well. How about the "kids"?
-
It wasn't bad, but the second film didn't hit the mark either. (This from a huge fan of the original film) I think one of the big issues was that despite being called "Tron", the character of Tron was relegated to a spot largely out of the limelight, with only two big moments in the film (his admittedly very cool…

Did you just reboot My Mother the Car? :eek:

We've been looking at the Jaffa en masse, and as such, I think a lot of their problem is their mindthink. They got cocky and therefore less diligent in refining themselves. But narrow the view to certain Jaffa, and I'd put them up against Klingons. Teal'c certainly. Bra'tac absolutely (even more so if given a younger…

I watched UFO when very young. Should someone ever make a game of it, as a player I'd insist on the fun, crazy early-70s look and feel of the thing, right down to magenta hair and typewriters acting as communications machines.

Because he's not an obscure character. In fact, he may be the most recognized superhero comic character in the world (possible exception of Batman). To have his complete absence would actually be a suspension of belief, strange as that may be, and one most of the general public would find to be a turn-off. Better to have…

Certain races can consume the Presidents for hours? That is disgusting! Though I can think of one or two... :P Do we have mint patty candies in the game? If not, we should see to adding those. And Vulcanoids should become intoxicated upon consuming them.
-
Even were it to be legal again immediately, I suspect they'd want to make that provisionally. Romulan Ale should not be anywhere near politics. Just look at the dinner in The Undiscovered Country. Even the conspiracy plotters understood what a bottle of the stuff could do to negotiations.

Klingons win. The reason? Jaffa weapons are for intimidation. Just look at Carter pwning the Jaffa in a shooting demo, followed by O'Neil's great explanation as to why. Klingon guns would fall into the "kill first, intimidate second" category. Jaffa, I suspect, have another disadvantage: gut snakes. They do have armor, but…

In light of that comment, I should probably not mention that I've yet to see Frozen, Thor: The Dark World, and The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies. Hmm...If you'll excuse me, I suddenly feel the need to visit Amazon Instant Videos.

Truly unique pizza. I'd eat the crust on that one (just leave the raw tomatoes off the dish). Now if they can just find a way to do something for the crust of my favorite canadian bacon and sauerkraut pizza, I'd be thrilled.

What no pilot nor navigator? * Captain: Ben Sisko (DS9) * First Officer (2nd in command): Susan Ivanova (B5) * Doctor: The Doctor (Voyager) * Counselor: Dr. Andrew Garner (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) * Scientist #1: Spock * Scientist #2: Samantha Carter (SG1) * Scientist #3: Henry Deacon (Eureka) * Communications Officer:…

Only if the crust has some sort of augmentation: garlic butter dippers, baked-in cheese, that sort of thing. I also pointedly avoid eating crust edges at pizza buffets, and take offense to pizza makers who extend the crust, even to rolling it over so you have yet more unseasoned bread to plow through. There are places I've…

Just need to infect his bloodstream with bat nanobots to take out the midi-chlorians. Then both are on even ground. I'm sure there's a syringe of 'em on the utility belt somewhere. :D
-
I feel for you, truly. I had an IT contract several years back to upgrade/repair school laptops. One of the kids had allowed his cat to repeatedly relieve itself on his school-issued laptop, and not being a waterproof device... :rolleyes: Rather than mark it for decommissioning, the school reasoned it could be salvaged.…
-
Agreed, though it cannot be all that, otherwise we'd have either a reboot or a sequel to E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial by now. ;)
-
Not to kick off a fight, but is it really "green" if you're increasing trees cut in order to make chips? I could see it if it was made from the fiber of grass clippings, for example, since that is an abundant, easily replenished source. I'm curious how they get past the flamability issue as well. Obviously, they have, or…

I'm not opposed to a remake of a bad movie if the production crew, especially the writers, see significant ways they can take the original story concepts and make something worthwhile from them. Unfortunately, the usual effort is just for another cash grab.
-
Note the lighting effects. I've never seen it discussed, but it looks like the lighting crew selected a style of lighting similar to what was on TV decades before as yet another way to move the episode back into the 1950s.
-
A changing map is indeed interesting. Part of me would love for them to push just a bit further into the concept by depicting what I'd term "protectorates": those systems who are not aligned but protected by the power that surrounds them. For example, all those planets that the Federation has decided not to give first…

Actually, I was unaware of of the Matrix bit, but I've not collected comics since, oh, 1996 or so. I actually thought you were going to mention Supergirl's slightly-aged clone Galatea in Justice League Unlimited.
-
That really seems to be the challenge. From what I gather, they don't have the manpower of a full studio, so this will likely take a long time to finish. By the time it is done, will it even be viable to players of that date? I cheer the effort, though, and hope that it will indeed be something we former CoH players will…

Get Smart! Play either KAOS or CONTROL. Lots of room for action, gadgets, and laughs. Galaxy Rangers: no guts, no glory. Play as a 2nd generation augmented rangers. Space Academy (Jimmy Doohan's other space show) and its successor, Jason of Star Command. Plenty of universe there. Might need to beef up an opposing faction…
-
Well worth pointing out. Unfortunately, they're unlikely to be able to post a significant offense (or defense for that matter) against the heirs of Asgardian technology. Hence my suggestion of an outside group that brings new discoveries with them. But I'd be onboard should someone create a reasonable excuse for local…

She certainly was. :D

The Wild, Wild West Steampunk/weird west where you get to play Secret Service, cowboys, native tribes, scientists mad and otherwise, megalomaniac geniuses or their powerful thugs. And you can choose from a variety of ethnic origins and back stories, possibly even some weird stuff like werewolves or steampunk robots. Earn…

I'd be down for an open world PvP, so long as their was a flag mechanism for choosing PvP participation. Sure, some of my NPC quest givers and shop keepers will die, annoying me, but I won't be ganked. At least that was my experience back in WoW. Hawkwing, much of what you say sounds like CoH, and I'm good with that. Still…

I've often thought, be it TV, film, or game, there still a Goa'uld story to be had beyond the end of Stargate Atlantis (I'm not considering SGU since the 10 eps I watched took place largely in another galaxy. What happened beyond the 10 is a mystery to me.) How, considering Ba'al the Last was dead? Easy peasy. Have the…

Blasphemy! :P Well, I'm going to add my own blasphemy: whatever happens, whatever time, make it something other than another Enterprise (ship, not the show). I find it one too many suspensions of belief that every last Enterprise, whether it lives or dies, will be a legend with a legendary crew. Pointing to real life…
