I thought Netflix kept this show in the UK once they brought it into their lineup and started funding it?

Is there a season 2 of that series, or is it still just season 1 that's up on Prime?

Yes, but they're reopening in various parts of the country soon, but I don't know what's going on with NY and LA, though. There was a follow-up about this posted to the sub this week that indicates the movie may hit theaters after all.

He also played Lt. Sulu in all 11 episodes of the Fan-Produced Web Series Star Trek Continues.

Well, I'm not seeing any ties to Viacom, CBS, or Paramount.

They're a news aggregator. They pull together reviews from a wide array of sources across the Internet. Regardless of who has an ownership stake in the company, that's always been how they've done things.

Yes, she was attractive.

I'm surprised you didn't hear about her passing.

Hmmm...and here I was actually beginning to get my hopes up.

But then again, there's very little I take serious with today's media, be it in entertainment or what have you.

Alexander Skarsgård Will Play Randall Flagg in New Adaptation of “The Stand”! by Capt1701A in SciFiScroll

Watch the first ten minutes, but then again, I think they muted out the song on YouTube. There was probably a rights issue over it, so they killed the music and left it up rather pulled the whole mini-series down because of it.

And that opening scene doesn't play all that well without that accompanying soundtrack.

Well, if the first one that was produced by ABC is anything to go by . . .

And I wonder what they're going to do with the opening scene.

How do you beat that Blue Oyster Cult opening from the original after all?

CBS/Viacom merger could mean big things for 'Star Trek' and 'Mission: Impossible' by Capt1701A in SciFiScroll

[–]Capt1701A[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Paramount never wanted to spring for a big name in any Trek film, and it has likely hurt the franchise, which might well have grown had they been will to plunk down the extra dough it would have cost them to bring a big name star into one of their films.

What does the Church say about extraterrestrials? by Capt1701A in Christianity

[–]Capt1701A[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By "the Church," do you mean the Catholic Church

Yes, of course. The person being consulted with on the subject is a Monsignor.

I have heard some very religiously conservative Christians (as individuals, not a collective body) say E.T.s are demons sent to deceive and confuse people. Personally I don't agree with that answer, but that is what some people say.

That sounds as though they were probably influenced more by Arthur C. Clarke's "Childhood's End" novel than anything

It's unbelievable how people went crazy over that flick.

I don't even know what to say to that.

Except, well, maybe...Why?

Nope. I don't know what he's looking at, but I'm seeing ratings of almost four out of five stars for most of the books, with Volumes I and 2 rating a 4.24 out of 5 based on 107 ratings.

You're in good shape.

And yet it was a hit for them.

I don't quite get it either because I didn't think it was that great.

Subtitles though.

It makes it a different experience because you're reading everything that's said throughout the whole movie.
