    She's looking at a monitor - probably a space monitor!!!

    Probably on one of the "Justice League" episodes...

    I think that Captain Kirk has been drinking too much Saurian brandy... Or the green stuff...

    Ah, huh....

    And you're the one bewailing the loss of the original "Star Trek" series...

    Rather dates you, too, dude.

    Me, I've moved on to "Star Trek - Deep Space Nine" and "Star Trek - Voyager"...

    See you in the future, old timer!!

    I had a similar thought to this thread last night. I watched Alien vs Predator Requiem which has to be hands down one of the worst Sci-fi/horror films I've ever had the displeasure of watching. It was truly awful, but what bothered the me the most about it was the fact that, Hollywood has allowed lame azz directors and producers to ruin great creatures such as the Xenomorph(Alien), and the Predator. The horror that many people felt the first time they saw the creature from Alien, simply isn't present any more. It's no longer scary because it's been overdone by nitwits and bums who were lucky enough to have parents that paid for their film school.

    While we're at it, vampires and werewolves, used to be frightening. I'm talking about The Howling, or Wolfen, or Bram Stoker's Dracula. Those films were truly creepy!! Nowadays vampires and werewolves look like 90210 extras that you hope make the mistake of taking the wrong exit in California and end up on Crenshaw and Slawson on a Friday night during the summer. I mean how did this happen, when did vampires, werewolves, and other ghouls become so, just pussy for lack of a better word? It's sad. I miss that feeling of horrow when I watched The Howling. Did any of you see the most recent Wolfman? Just plain terrible. He looked like a Buffalo!!!! After seeing it at the show, I was dying for a half slab of ribs and a some mild Buffalo wings light on the sauce.

    Firefly was the orginal series that Serenity ties up. Stars Nathan Fillion and the alien chick on the new V. Joss Whedon created it, he also did Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Watch Firefly BEFORE Serenity!

    I really didn't care about TOS, more a fan of TNG, DS9 and Enterprise. (Enterprise had the hottest guys.) i think my dislike of TOS is because my father really liked it.

  • wha happened?
