    Star Trek: The Original Series and The Next Generation

    And Starfleet doesn't seem to have had the volume coverage (hence the ongoing "only ship nearby" plot hook) to consider grouping vessels into regular task groups until the Dominion War (if not somewhat before then, the "Bridge Commander" PC game manual claimed that the Galaxy-Class USS Dauntless...

    Star Trek: The Original Series and The Next Generation

    Not in audiovisual canon, no. If memory serves, I believe that "The Lost Years" novels (not to be confused with The Lost Era, which covers events from 2295-2364, including Michael Jan Friedman's Stargazer novels) had Kevin Riley as Kirk's primary aide between the end of the five-year mission...

    April Fools! Real Transformers developments that would have seemed fake years earlier

    Not impossible, but I think the timeline breaking was due to overseas events. I mean, to hint at an overused and over-the-top expression, Michael Bay could be credibly accused of "inappropriately touching our childhood" (what with pausing a film to talk about Texas Laws and RoTF Devastator...

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    It's funny that while Thundercracker-with-Thrust-wings got a new identity as part of Hasbro's "Let's name every. single. use. of the model" phase in the mid-2010s (being named after an Exodus Seeker likely helped), I haven't seen the same treatment for Skywarp-with-Dirge-wings or...

    The Cheesecake Bakery

    Twitter did not, in a surprising twist, reveal anything in that regard. But we have a name, at least: https://twitter.com/RaionArt They're the same individual that made the Yuri-as-a-vampire artwork I put up (with memes) on this very thread for Halloween.

    In keeping with yesterday's post, and owing to the Water Balloon Fight video having been taken to private, here's our club in some thematically appropriate but not-in-their-game attire:

    Star Trek: The Original Series and The Next Generation

    Susan Oliver had quite the career in front of and behind the camera -- yet I suspect she will always be remembered for defining one of the first non-human species to be seen across multiple series (the Vulcans being the other introduced in "The Cage").* *of course, she wasn't actually...

    April Fools! Real Transformers developments that would have seemed fake years earlier

    I didn't know you worked for Paramount! Of course, you'd probably want to hide that, considering how many would be bothering you for leaks. 🙃 Not I, though.

    April Fools! Real Transformers developments that would have seemed fake years earlier

    Right, but because the larger story of S7 was In Other Media, Orci and Bay felt content that their presence in the film would have the fandom going "Ah, yes, it's those guys." while the general film audience saw John Tuturro only giving us Need-To-Know Backstory. Anyway, pretty sure TFWiki...

    April Fools! Real Transformers developments that would have seemed fake years earlier

    Nice to know I'm not the only one with fixed ideas! (I suspect it's part of the fannish condition to some degree.) Of course, given what happened with the making of the sequels, there's no reason that both descriptions ("most compentently made" and "two films mashed together") can't both be true...

    A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    "But we gave the Skywalker surname to Rey, so you have to like her! Right?" Legacy may have had us tripping over descendants of the Skywalker-Solo lines, but at least they gave us a spectrum of takes on said legacy. Nat Skywalker wasn't very good at the Force(tm), so he changed his name and...

    April Fools! Real Transformers developments that would have seemed fake years earlier

    Well, at the time, Bay was known for Armageddon (which ran about 20 minutes too long, but was much more hopeful than the more critically acclaimed Deep Impact)*, The Rock (which I've not heard anything bad about) and making a movie about Pearl Harbor that actually did well in the Japanese market...

    I'd like to think that I know how they should do it.... though I don't know if current timeline/story policy would allow for such a relaunch.

    Transformers Arch foe's discussion

    See, because you're dealing with multiple continuities that didn't quite agree with each other on all things, and a fandom that became notorious for getting into flame wars over what time it was (now there's a deep Usenet cut), and a period where the various media were becoming increasingly...

    Star Trek: The Original Series and The Next Generation

    To be honest, "What You Come Back To" would be ill-served by a feature film treatment, especially considering all the plot threads it would be picking up.
