I like star trek.
I like it a lot.
But Voyager is driving me nuts.
How many different types of plot devic- err - energy types have they utilized
since going to the delta quadrant?
At least TNG was somewhat based on science. Voyager has so much technobabble
even sci-fi hogs can't understand half of it, and what you do understand is
soo ridiculus you want to turn off the TV.
But this is the 2nd season, with luck it will get better.

That's not the rerelease. That's just upgraded sound and color.
Haven't you heard the line they're using about the video tapes? "The
Original, One Last Time". Lucasfilm is rereleasing Star Wars in 1997 with
extended footage in the Cantina and in Mos Eisley, extra dogfight footage at
the end of the movie, ditigally remastering the soundtrack and adding the
legendary missing Jabba the Hutt scene after Greedo gets blasted in the
Cantina. After this comes out, you won't be able to get the original (i.e.
the first VHS release or the new THX release) but only the Special Edition.

1-I believe they've already done the rerealease in THX with an interview with
Lucas on it. We've got it at the video store I work for.

2-I'm looking forward to it, but I still think they should've released it
sooner.

3-Keep your fingers crossed

Hey, give some credit to the Starfighter effects. It was like the second

Well, yeah, but I hate the Voyager ship. I mean, it doesn't look like a ship.
It looks like a toy. Now, the Agamemnon or the Vorlons... Totally different

He's only given a sort of smirk whenever asked about the FINAL trilogy.
He's said that let's just wait and see if this one ever gets finished first.
I don't think we'll see it in the next 10 years or so.

Was it closer to the book than the original film from the 60's?

Any info on the last three he mentioned WAY back? I know I'm too optomistic
on seeing those :) Supposed to be a set of three trilogies he said back in
