Sad news. My condolences to his friends and family.

As much as I loathe it, the trend nowadays is to do "realistic" series, with lots of swearing, violence, and angst, and Star Trek Picard falls right into this. Also, I read somewhere that Stewart did...

It is really hard for me to judge Star Trek Picard fairly because I love the character (and the actor) so much, and also because I am quite receptive to all the little references to past series that...

Welcome!

I don't see any issues with having businesses on a Federation starbase, just like Sisko's father had a restaurant in New Orleans. I tend to consider that Federation worlds are...

I think it has to do with how something will look on screen. Having astronauts explore space is more easily to make interesting on screen than engineers building a spacecraft, sadly. Not that it...

Merry Christmas to you all :)

I can't say this trailer thrilled me. I will probably see if I can give the series a try, but I'm not very optimistic.

Joyeux Noël to you all ;)

Finally got to see this film. Loved it, I will probably end up buying the DVD and reading the original book.

I can't quite judge how accurate the science was since it's far from my field of...

This is sad. My condolences to his family and friends.

This reminds me some discussion we had in my current gaming group when playing AD&D and trying to get an equivalent on what a gold coin (or silver, copper, etc) is worth in current currency. The...

You know, I used to be an supporter of the "CODA is not D20", but now that I have actually played some times with AD&D 3.5 edition, the similarities have become more and more difficult to ignore,...

My favourite CRPG (or whatever you want to call that kind of game) of all time remains Fallout 2. I'm still stuck somewhere in Fallout: New Vegas, but playing it made me start and complete another...

For the record, my comment about the off topic was mainly about the fact that this thread was supposed to be about the Martian movie...

This is horribly out of topic, but I don't think that the fact that an actor plays roles where he uses weapons should prevent him from taking an anti-gun stance. The job of being an actor means...

Merry belated Christmas everyone.

I'm all for modernising Trek. I just hope they won't think this means adding unlikeable characters, perpetually conflictual relationships and backstabs, and gratuitous sex (or at the very least,...

I fear this series would either happen in the Abramsverse and/or be full of grittiness and unlikeable characters plotting against each other, because that's the way series are supposed to be now.
I...

Aaand now the song is stuck in my head. Again. ;)

The Traveller's people (I don't remember if their name was mentioned, so maybe they already appear in your list) were fairly advanced as far as I remember. Then there are the El-Aurians, whose powers...

Rest in peace Mr Lee :(

That's the third artist I liked who disappeared in 2015. What is it with this year?

In a nutshell, because it's sadly been a while since I've played either of them:
ICON is a rather original system, and its character creation is easier. I did not like much the die system, but...

I always considered that the Federation uses a form of money, if only to balance exchanges. I think I remember Sisko saying in an episode that he burned all of his transporter credits to visit his...

I had heard about the "less Star Trek-y" comment as well. Given that I considered the reboot to already be as little Star Trek-y as possible (have not watched IotD but I guess it's the same), I'm...

I have a basic understanding of German (and none of Swedish), and I struggled to understand what they said without the subtitle. It's only when I read the TV Tropes article about the movie that I...
