4/5 on my “Uncanny” X-Force prediction + comic ramblings

| July 15, 2010

So, a couple months back this teaser on the left was floated.  On the right is the reveal. So, I called them all except Angel, and only because I saw a quote about Angel being “the last person they would want on this team”.  That will teach me to listen to even pretty direct denials. [...]

DS9+17: Babel

| July 14, 2010

This was a pretty run of the mill stock episode, plot-wise. Avery Brooks seems to have dialed back the crazy faces to “normal”, and the rest of the cast seems to have relaxed into their roles as well.  The only thing I really noticed as awkward/odd in this episode was a scene with Kira & [...]

DS9+17: A Man Alone

A Star Trek murder mystery! I have to say, I called the “trick” like 1/4 of the way into it, but it was still an enjoyable episode.  Some of that enjoyment came from the (continued) overdone facial expressions.

Deep Space Nine, 17 years later

| July 7, 2010

Has it really been 17 years??? WHAT THE —-!?  Wow.  I mean, damn, I’m old. This was always my favorite Star Trek, although if you asked me why I couldn’t tell you at the time.    Still, even as much as I liked it, I eventually stopped watching – around the time that Dax got replaced [...]

“Versatile Blogger” awardmemechainletter

| July 3, 2010

Justwritecat hit me with the Versatile Blogger award a while back and yes, I have seriously put off blogging for a week or so because I hadn’t written this post yet.  Not like you care. Now, the weird thing I that I can’t find the origin of this thing.  Naturally, google is polluted from all [...]
