And now, the X4 Turret, which I started before finishing Churro. First, a quick Lego-based mod anyone can do if they'd rather the turret have gunbarrels instead of missiles: I decided to use the arm cannons from the Cyborg Pack to make bigger barrel ends: The narrowing where they connect is...

drinking coffee and complaining to your friends you just wish you weren't on the road again

And the live interview afterwards busted some myths about the movie, too. ---Dave

I'd summarize the Le Guin story, but it's basically a description of a less high-tech society that runs the same as in this week's SNW, down to the terrible secret. Although, ---Dave

Churro with his mechsuit FD-0. Space Moose Mode! And, of course, the pilot. ---Dave

I guess you found it with a gyrocompass. ---Dave

Cover A is deceptive and cheap shock crap, though. ---Dave

According to Memory Alpha, "Amok Time" takes place 8 years after "Amok Spock." That means SNW season 2 would be due for a Pon Farr episode...if it doesn't happen (due to Spock's half-human heritage, or other extenuating circumstances), that might be the wedge that pushes T'Pring away again...

This may or may not be the same Grand Inquisitor, given that Rebels is set several years later (teenaged Leia shows up in a few eps). Here's another way to think about it: the only real Sith are like the King and the Crown Prince, and only the Crown Prince is given all the secrets of rule...

Between now and TOS, Chapel gets married and then loses her husband, plus may have blamed herself for Pike's fate for all we know. She took a LOT of emotional hits in the next few years, and was probably still in wobbly recovery during TOS. ---Dave

Chapel's subplot was basically explaining how she goes from how she is "now" to how she ends up in TOS. She pushes people away before the relationship can get too deep, and in a few years finds herself with no real connections save for a hopeless pining for the one person who never let her get...

It is VERY hard to convey emotions in that costume, but I got the impression of, "Hm...yes, that was sufficient." ---Dave

Um, 6:42PM on the day of release is not late enough for everyone to have seen it. It was, in fact, over two hours before I started watching. Fortunately, I already knew people have zero impulse control and didn't even look at this thread today until I'd had the chance to watch it. Don't be a...
