  • Oh my ... I remember both.. and yes the "Great Vegetable Rebellion" (though of a different genre) was definitely worse. The one who wrote that script was normally one of the better writers .. When the cast read the script they were in total disbelief . ( I don't think any of them could believe it actually). Trek stuff we…
  • IMO... The Final Frontier (ST 5 ) had to be the worst of all time ... Several reasons ... but at the top of the list was the " cat woman" at that bar !
  • BTW... I was about to edit before you responded.. LOL !!! you're good !! I agree with your review 100%. Kind of makes you wonder when was the last time some of these kind folks made a genuine positive contribution to the community. ANYONE can tear down another ... BUILDING something ??? That's altogether a different matter…
  • Good grief ... 6 years later and seems like there are some things that just DON'T change !! BTW... drop me a PM I have the URL for signature !
  • WOW ! You're not kidding a lot has happened. I did hear from customer service. Looks promising so far. OH ! As far as the signature thing ... I use to have my own web site and would upload picts of 3-D ships/models I make just for fun. I still need to learn the art of rendering. I'll get there (eventually). I use to upload…
  • ** What's funny about the modeling thing: that was my suggestion .. Really humbling to hear that someone took that to heart. ** Also: about 6 years ago you were one of the few who tried to help me out waaay back then. Thanks for your repeated acts of kindness. I'm retired in RL now. So there is more time available for…
  • Cool !! That works !! Buried around here somewhere are some old pictures of some 3-D models we use to discuss. And ... someone told me that there was at one time (for this game) the ability to get a model of your favorite ship made ?? At any rate: I hope to hear from customer service soon and see what steps I need to take…
  • The lack of genuine caring is something that will never be a shortage of here ... or any other forum for that matter. Leaving: "don't let the door slap you on the axx on the way out!" (as a general rule). Are you correct? .. possibly. It is, however my experience that it depends on what side of the fence you're on as to…
  • Official ? I agree ... let's wait and see when the big dogs tell us what's up. As for Shat? I personally don't mind as long as it's done tastefully. I'm more concerned about the way that "JJ" does things. (ie: the destruction of Vulcan, the death of Spock's Mom, Red matter .... etc. just to list a few). Just my opinion.
  • Agreed! IMHO Khan Noonien Singh was every bit as cold as Stalin ... he believed himself to be "superior" in every way to every one! As a ruler he was able to exercise his will as he saw fit. He was a dictator! He was ruthless. He was the sort of person who thanked Kirk for his hospitality by taking over his ship and…
  • My overall review 1. Benedict Cumberbatch played the part that was given to him did an excellent job. 2. To use this particular actor as Khan Noonien Singh, however, was either a VERY bad idea OR as some have indicated: he was not really Kahn, but rather someone of that time, genetic background and with intimate knowledge…
  • not a bad idea really: they could figure out a way to let Pike live as well (much like they did in the Menagerie). That gets the classical Spock / Pike and Kirk, all in a place of timeless living (of sorts). I'm not sure if I said that right... but I think you get the idea! EDIT: I base that upon the idea that even the…
  • On a more serious note: what ever they do I hope that they leave both characters in good standing, peaceably and with the dignity that they brought to the series. IMHO Trek is one of the few TV series that was able to grow and survive as it did over the years. Perfect? .... good grief no! No series ever will be. Aside from…
  • I'll finish reading the rest of the treads: However, you sir get a gold star!! :D (got to love it!)
  • Well said sir. My family (including a distant member: Davy Crockett) applaud you !
  • LOL !! :D Good shot !! [/snickers at self ]
  • Funny you should say that... back when it was released on the TV series there were a few cartoonists who had fun with that very point ! LOL ! :eek: Just the same .. "in the day" (so to speak) it was great! The tumbler (In my opinion) was a good idea for a modern upgrade. We al have our opinions ... and I wouldn't mind…
  • agreed. I remember the original "mobile" ... It was cool .. for it's time. IMHO the tumbler was a great idea t pull it forward into todays designs. It also made it as you said: a genuine prototype. Some of the others (just my opinion) .... look too ... umm well .. "plastic" ??? (Not sure how to say it right) ... but…
  • my youngest son joined and served in the Marines. He returned a different person, a badly damaged ankle (held together with several screws) ... but thankfully other wise in great shape! Again I want to thank OP for the post ! Much appreciated!
  • RIGHT ON BRO !! Good grief! How totally insensitive for someone to stoop that level ! :mad: All of us would do well to remember ... and show respect! There is a reason why flags are at half staff today!
  • AMEN ! (thanks for the post !)
  • AH !! I see what ya mean. I might disagree somewhat.... but not that much! It's all good sir ! :cool:
  • LOL !! hey bud! Long time no see !! (Folks we go back to some really great times playing SFC about 10 years ago! ) Unfortunately we sold our bass boat about 8 years ago! I went fishing for the first time this year in a long, long time! It's been a reasonably good season (all things considered). No new records, a lot of…
  • yeah ! sometimes it is fun! I've seldom thought of work "game" or "production" ready. But there have been a couple of "ideas" that we have had that others seemed to think were viable. Most of what I do is just for fun. I do have a few models that I take more seriously and those probably will not be posted to prevent theft…
  • Personally I liked the tumbler .. and this one too. I am old enough to remember the original TV Batman series ... and the older Bat mobile, and those from the first Batman movies ( ugh! ). IMHO it was ready for an update. I actually hated seeing the tumbler blown up!
  • I appreciate the response folks. In the meantime I'll keep digging for the Klingon ships. Do they still allow that sort of thing?
  • YUP !! That was me! (that was a long time ago !!) good memory. To those who responded about the DS-9 fleet mission ... I appreciate the response. I am disappointed to hear that they did away with it. It was one of the better missions we had available back in those days. I've tried to up date my game ... HUGE DL.. (It…
  • Anyone from the 9th fleet still messin' with this thread ... ( a couple of them use to!) .... HAHA! I'm last! (at least for a few seconds !) :D
  • [/nods head in agreement] I use to hope and pray that some form of the USS Mako that we designed would make its way onto someones boad for discussion or brain storming ...etc. But I'm glad it never did ... for a long time now I have seen the benefits of simply leaving well enough alone! :) While to a degree the argument of…
