Season 1 was fun
Second half of Season 2 was better then the first half of Season 2.

I liked most of Season 3 though some of the episodes like Carnage in C-minor were just terrible. But it was nice to see Rodimus try to develop into the new leader until the writers had him break down under the pressure not once, but three times.

1. Dark Awakening: Autobots pursued in space by Decepticons land in the Autobot Mausoleum and are rescued by Optimus Prime. Still showing all his battle damage from the movie and showing signs of mental confusion, yet Rodimus still eagerly rushes to him and gives him back the Matrix. Then he has to suck it up later in the episode and fight undead Optimus

2. Burden Hardest to Bear: now this one I liked. Yeah Rodimus is feeling the pains of leadership but this made more sense then Dark Awakening. In this ep Rodimus is feeling overly stressed and takes off only to lose the matrix due to a Stunticon ambush. He reverts to Hot Rod and refuses to seek out the Matrix and reclaim it. He gets some sage advice from a Sensei and then sees what the Matrix did to Scourge and reclaims it. (likely the Matrix deliberately enhanced Scourge to test Hot Rod/Rodimus)

3. Return of Optimus Prime part 1: Rodimus is still feeling the blues about being leader and is tormented by dreams of Optimus and thinks he is not ever going to be the leader Optimus ever was. (more likely these were warnings from the Matrix that Optimus could still be alive). He comes up with a good plan to get Optimus' body from the crazy scientists but didn't take into account the fact that the daughter of the scientists was sympathetic to the Autobots and thus altered the trap to release the plague. So Rodimus leaves with her and Optimus' body and the plague is now spreading. Instead of seeking a way to fight the plague or realizing that the Matrix carries the answers he instead focuses on having Wreck_Gar diagnosing Optimus and after Wreck-Gar says "He's dead, Jim" (nice!) Rodimus then realizes the Quintessons can revive him again like before. Ah well, at least he was smart enough to shut down Metroplex's brain to make sure that the giant city/robot didn't get hit with the plague before becoming infected himself. Ah well, all plot holes and logic errors can simply resolved by this one mantra "Hasbro wanted Optimus Prime BACK"

Yeah. As I recall the medical tech in Dredd's world can slow aging and I think somewhat reverse it, but Dredd is now late 60's if not 70 years old. He's still tough and I wouldn't want him after me, but the creator, writers and editors must have something planned in the future to deal with Dredd's age and the fact that he is mortal.

1. He's too popular and too much of a cash cow to kill off for good.

2. They have ample supply of the DNA from Fargo that helped make Dredd as shown by the "clone brothers" Dredd has. There was the original Rico that Dredd had to stop, then a new brother adopted the name Rico to redeem it. There was a clone brother that showed an extreme independence of thought and didn't want to be something churned out on an assembly line and opted to NOT be a Judge. Before he left the Judges, his face and skin were completely reworked so that he looked nothing like Dredd.

So could they:

1. make a new clone that takes the name Dredd to carry on the name?
2. make a new clone and program it's brain with all of Dredd's memories and experience thus it would be a literal copy of Dredd?
3. clone a young body and transplant Dredd's brain into it?
4. fountain of youth or something that restores Dredd's youth?
5. be brave (stupid) and end the Dredd franchise?

Perhaps JMS or Whedon should helm Star Trek? Could be interesting to say the least.

My job took me overseas last week and before I went home I made a detour on the way to the airport and saw the Avengers.

Yes, someone does die. I won't say who as I don't want to drop spoilers, but I don't think the death ranks down there with M. Night Plot Twist

Toss me a PM if you want to know who it is.

John Carter wasn't that bad actually. A bit more editing in a few places, better marketing and some people being a bit more educated on the character's literary history before seeing the movie would have helped.

Would you rather have Berman and Braga still running the show?

Indeed, if this is a divergent timeline and the old timeline exists, then if Spock Prime wants to return to where....or should I say "WHEN" he belongs, then all he needs to do is go to the Guardian of Forever. It should surely be able to lock onto the proper timeline and send him home.

Also I've theorized before that if they had wanted to undo that stupid death Kirk had in Generations that the Guardian of Forever is the best tool for that job too. Spock could scan the time frame of Kirk's fight with Soran and then figure out when to step in and phaser blast Soran. They then safely stop the missile and Kirk lives. But way too late for that now, unless they decide to CGI de-age and slim down Shatner.

One wonders if the "All-knowing" "all seeing" Q have noted the time change from the last movie. One would think that such an event would garner their attention.

If I understand the nu-Trek timeline, the Enterprise was only just constructed in the movie hence it couldn't have gone to Talos 4 at all.

But at least Kirk shouldn't perish on Veridian 3 in the future of this new timeline.

Perhaps an adaptation of the Squire of Gothos? We never knew what race he was from, until Peter David' TNG novel Q-Squared revealed he was an adolescent Q and the Q that we all love to hate is both his mentor and secretly his father.

The Dolph Master of the Universe movie has been classified under Chapter 13 of the Geek Code, under section 8, paragraph 11. You can find it indexed under W.W.N.S.O.T.

WE WILL NOT SPEAK OF THIS

Let the enemy subs merge into a giant nemesis! My pals and their 5 giant robot Lions are ready to defend us!

Hm, perhaps the M5 computer?

Perhaps you're right. Well as long as they don't decide to base a movie on the Spock's Brain episode.....

V'ger was basically the Nomad probe on a larger scale.

As to Khan gaining control of the Doomsday Machine, that would be similar to the TNG novel VENDETTA, that gave us the Doomsday Machine model 2, about 4 times the size with 10 times the fire power and it was found, activated and controlled by a member of Guinan's people. She wanted vengeance on the Borg and it turns out the machines were made to destroy the Borg. What Kirk stopped was a prototype on automatic pilot, this other model was far deadlier.

Perhaps another idea for a Trek movie would be to expand upon the episode Balance of Terror where the Romulans were testing their new cloak and plasma torpedoes.

I think it will be positive for many Marvel movies.

That proc is best used in Stamina/Quick Recovery/Physical Perfection/Kheldian transformation powers.

Yeah, glad my two badge hunters secured the badge last night.

We Will Not Speak Of This!
