Robot Carnival (1987 movie) It's films like this that really make me like '80s anime. An anthology, it showcases the work of nine different animation directors, some of whom were just starting out as directors. A more modern example might be Halo Legends or Batman: Gotham Knight , with the main dif...

Fist of the North Star - Season 1 (109 episode series) I first learned of this series, which originally aired in '84-'87, from the Anime Abandon look at the 1986 movie. Looking into it further, I found that both the movie and the series were done by the same people at essentially the same time. Thi...

I Dream of Mimi (3 episode OVA) This '90s vintage OVA is a guilty pleasure, and not just because of the nostalgia factor of the visual design. You see, this is an ecchi, which means lots and lots of naked boobies to those of you unfamiliar with animu terminology. ;) That automatically tends to put ...

Heat Guy J (26 episode series) I won a copy of this series at a panel in ValleyCon 2010, which was honestly about the only halfway decent thing ValleyCon had going for it. It then took me over two years to actually watch it, and having finally gotten through all of it, about all I can really say is...

Daily Lives of High School Boys (12 episode series) This is one of the few high school/slice of life series that I actually managed to enjoy. Usually I have a hard time getting into any kind of slice of life show, simply because, for me, a show has to have some kind of a point, aside from just bein...

I, for one, complain about the TOS miniskirts.

I always thought they should have saved the fan service for special scenes, instead of having it essentially all the time. Then again, TPTB were too chicken to actually do much beyond the catsuit when it came to VOY, not even TV side-boob. :shrug: Still would have preferred normal uniforms for them ...

This is why I only ever write or do any edits in a Word document before copy-pasting it into the online spot.

Can't say I agree with you on Real Life. I found it to be rather cheap and even a bit insulting.

Total Recall (2012 movie) I went in to this not quite knowing what to expect. I will admit to being not all that enthusiastic about it, though, simply because of this movie's status as a remake of the 1990 Paul Verhoeven classic. The trailer I saw for this movie reinforced that point, in spite of t...

The Q and the Grey ruined the Q - no if, ands, or buts about it.

I'll watch the new movie, eventually. But I'm not going to pay money to see it.

And given the success if these two movies, I expect the next one to be more of the same. I even saw threats of them bringing in the Borg or Q.

My impression is that a lot of Trek fans like it because it's something new, and because they have the impression that Trek is popular and "mainstream" now. :roll: But hey, if you don't care about things like a good story, character development, or a plot that makes sense, I guess Abrams T...
