Saint J 77

There are lots of layers to the Star Trek universe. Over the years, on the whole they have held, what has now become known as the Prime universe together reasonable well. There are mistakes to cannon here and there but nothing a good fan explanation can't normally explain away. What I didn't like about the new film was its determination to wipe out all that had gone before it. I understand why they did it, so they were not restricted by 40 years of continuity. I didn't think the story they gave us justified deleting all those hours of television and movies. If they wanted to start again they should have just gone a little further forward from the TNG/DS9/VOY timeline with a new crew. Blowing up Vulcan, although liberating to some, felt like a big duck you to the long time fans. I know the writers of the last movie have said that the Prime Universe still exists and that the actions of Nero in the 09 film just created a new timeline but that wasn't really clear from watching the film. The 09 film in itself was watchable. I enjoyed seeing Leonard Nimoy in it and thought Karl Urban as Dr. Leonard 'Bones' McCoy was good. I just would of rather they had tried to make in work in the original timeline instead of wiping it entirely. Ok so Archers timeline would not be effected but the rest is gone.

I'd always go for the classic Louis Armstrong version, that's best for me!

That's so funny! "Do you mind if I take my top off, on this beach?" "yeah, you can do what you like!" Which translates to "yes please!" lol

haha I've seen this before, thats so ****ing tight, I would definitely stay because she is very pretty. I sure someone did stay in the end if I am correct, and he was in the audience!

I can't believe we would bid 6 million for a player without first time experience.

ok thanks, not long left to go for the rest of us now anyway

oh ok, so you can't say then? Or you choose not too?

The9, I know you have answered this question before and I'm not doubting that you've actually seen the kit. But for my benefit could you say how you managed to get an early viewing of the kit again? I don't recall the answer and I'm to lazy to go back and find it. Cheers

Yeah Cloverfield counts in my book District 9 was also great too. Ive heard they might be doing a sequel.

I was thinking of watching that later after the football because of the talk of it on here today too

Regarding the decision to replace the poorly Frazer Hines although it could be construed as "audacious", I felt it tied quite nicely to the bizarre nature of the episode. Their hands were tied as the episodes were recorded very close if not on the actual day of the broadcast, I think. So they had to come up a Solution on the fly.Given the nature of Science Fiction/Fanasty I didn't see it as that far fetched as I think it was intended to be assuming anyway. Yes I have the Invasion on DVD. The animation was a good idea and I hope they do more of it for some of the other missing episodes. They are currently animating The Reign of Terror a William Hartnell Story. http://www.doctorwhonews.net/2011/06/dwn020611204008-reign-of-terror.html

I know there is plenty of time so I will not panic just yet. Its was just because we let Bart go I was hoping that meant the replacement deal was as good as done, but it appears not. As adriansfc said I am sure that the club "aren't that stupid." And TF will probably not even get near the bench this year. But while its still a possibility its a frightening prospect.

Heroes started as being unmissable TV for me but I felt the last series was a bit disappointing especially the last episode. Hiro and Ando were the characters that kept me coming back.

I must admit I'm a big fan of all things Doctor Who as well. I too have been a minor collector of classic DVD's. I love Patrick Troughton's Doctor. Its a crying shame the BBC wiped all those stories of the first and second Doctors adventures. Fortunately a lot of the missing episodes audio has been saved by fans who at the time of its airing recording it. on to old fashion tape So the missing stories still exist in audio format. Some missing film turn up in Southampton recently so there is still hope some more copies of the missing episodes could still one day be found. http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2011-12-11/doctor-who-two-long-lost-episodes-uncovered I have the Mind Robber on DVD. I watched it not long ago. I loved the solution to replace Jamie with a different actor while Frazer Hines was ill.

Another amazing Sci Fi film I would highly recommend to watch is the Invasion of the Body Snatchers, 1978 version. When I first saw this I couldn't sleep. I did watch it on my own late at night and I was only 10 at the time but still its a film that has always stayed with me. I feel what made this version of the film work so well is the ending works so well and wasn't what i was expecting. In my opinion it sorts out the weak point of Jack Finney's novel on which it is based.

He is another favourite of mine both the actor and the character. I loved the episode "Treachery, Faith, and the Great River" its the one where the Weyoun 6 clone defects. Weyoun 6 reveals to Odo that an illness threatens to wipe out the Great Link. The new clone, Weyoun 7 eventually convinces Weyoun 6 to commit suicide in order to protect Odo. Before dying, Weyoun VI asks Odo for his blessing.

Yeah I was think we probably need 2 keepers now. I am just worried as to when we sign them. I just hope its sooner rather than later. Can you imagine if Kelvin got injured the day of the Man City match and Tommy Forecast was in goal?

My main concern apart from a back up centre back right now is the back up goal keeper. Would we really of let Bart go if we hadn't definitely got someone ready to sign in his place? Seems pretty risky if the answer is yes.

For all the Star Trek fans http://trekmovie.com/ if you haven't come across it before its a great site for Star Trek information. Its main purpose was to follow all the new movie news for the 2009 film but over the years has become so much more.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qKcJF4fOPs&feature=related Yeah it was bleak, intelligent, gripping, and intense all at the same time. It was probably one of the best Star Trek at war episodes done.

I got into Star Trek through watching reruns of the Original Series with my family during the 80'es, even then I noticed how bad the visual effects were. But the stories have always been very memorable. I then went on to really enjoy all the modern series and somewhat forgot the Original Series for some years. It was only probably back in 2006 when I was given a box set of the original series as a christmas present, that I sat down and watched them again. Their are some great stories written by some big names of Sci Fi. If you can't stomach the effects you can now own the remastered versions. The went back in and restored and cleaned up the original film and then re made all the effects. Because it was made on film it had HD release then later on Blu Ray. Here is a of video to show what they did. [video=youtube;I-X5c7c3yzE] It is advertising the shows on HD but the same thing is now available on Blu Ray If you like the rest of Star Trek its worth giving the The Original Series ago as there are a lot of references to stories through the continuity of all the series. For example in Enterprise the episode "In the Mirror Darkly" You see what happened to the Defiant from the episode "The Tholian Web" from the original series. It is also a prequel to the whole Mirror universe that was first introduced in the Original Series episode "Mirror Mirror". The Mirror universe went on to became very popular during DS9 and featured in many episodes. Talking of DS9 the episode "Trials and Tribble-ations" was a fantastic time travel episode that sent the Ds9 crew back into Kirks original series time. The Footage for that episode is cleverly merged with The orignal Series episode "The Trouble with the tribbles" and is great fun to watch. So much that you probably love in Star Trek can be found in that Original series you would be mad not to at least give it a try.

Every episode John de Lancie stars in as Q he certainly steals the show.

You'll have to wait for the 1,250 ish for that

Tomas Sivok? And perhaps a new goalkeeper to show off the new keepers top. Now that might make up somewhat for the not so hot design.

we should of had a Golden version of this for our 125th anniversary kit, instead of the red nose.
