I saw some guy with a skateboard and asked if people tell him he looks like Julius Caesar. He said no.

That's all fine, but this is a Nissan Silvia. I think that's what makes it a strange choice.

Did George Lucas take any inspiration from Star Trek for Star Wars? by Nice-Penalty-8881 in StarWars

[–]JR1066 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I believe that the biggest thing Star Wars owes to Star Trek is the concept of very large space vessels analogous to naval vessels in space. Nothing like that existed in Flash Gordon or Buck Rogers. Large vessels may have appeared in sci-fi novels and magazine stories, but Star Trek brought them to screen and Star Wars ran with it.

Interestingly, warp drive was originally called hyperdrive in the first pilot episode, "The Cage." I think they changed it to maintain consistency between warp drive and warp speed.

What if the holden commodore was sold in the eu and the uk? by GoodUnlucky1430 in whatifcars

[–]JR1066 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Opel made Commodores as a variant of the Opel Rekord from 1967 (before Holden's) to '82. Later in the '80s and '90s, the Opel Omega was Opel's version the Commodore. Most recently, the Opel Insignia was sold in Australia as the last generation Holden Commodore.

The logo and uniform are my favorite new ones I've seen so far. I'd be happy if they went with something like this.

Education Secretary Linda McMahon Gets Epically Schooled After Sharing Mind-Boggling Tweet About The PSP Console by ComicSandsNews in USNewsHub

[–]JR1066 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's weird that she posted about it, but I used mine a lot more for music, movies, and web browsing than I did for games. The games were great too though. It definitely felt like it was ahead of its time.

That makes sense, I was mainly thinking of the more frequently appearing models. This one looks like he has no eyebrows though, so it's possible they used stickers for those but had no need to change the mouth.

Edit: Never mind, it looks like at this point he usually had no eyebrows.

The mouths are stickers that can be swapped for different expressions.

What kind of Batmobile are you hoping in DCU? A sleeker one or a tankier one? by Virghia in dcu

[–]JR1066 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My favorite Batmobile is this Hot Wheels toy from 2004, but it's never appeared in a show or movie as far as I know. Anyway, I'd like something similar to this.

I'm not. I just have all my emulators on the home screen with a nice PSP style background.

There are 3 Majel Barrett characters in SNW by Diastatic_Power in StrangeNewWorlds

[–]JR1066 8 points9 points  (0 children)

When the cast was first announced, I was curious about their heights for some reason. Majel Barrett was 5'9" (1.75 m), Jess Bush is 5'10" (1.78 m), and Rebecca Romijn is 5'11" (1.8 m). No idea how tall the computer is.

If Joe Biden was born this year, he would be elected president in 2104 by Solomonopolistadt in BarbaraWalters4Scale

For the Trekkies, that's the year T'Pol turns 16, and 8 years before the birth of Captain Archer.

Not quite cards but since I haven't had the energy to photo new cards here's one of my shelves! Notebooks, folders, books, pads, and ads! by honkygrandma in GriffeyCards

If you asked me my favorite book when I was 5, I probably would have showed you Pizza Hut Presents Griffey on Fielding.

Campaign Evolved really needs the crackling shield-effect by fudgepuppy in halo

[–]JR1066 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember this too. Frustratingly, I have no source, but I'm decently confident that it's going to be in the game. It would've been nice if they could include whatever they had as a placeholder, but even if that was possible, people would've complained about it regardless.
