It's both. He has a 'crew' populated entirely by hologram versions of himself in different roles. Note that the EMH didn't have an accent while the ENH did. Gets the guy a chance to portray lots of different characters in one show. Also shows how the anti-synthetic thing is a bit silly given...

So was there any different cinematic or plot conclusion from the end of the Mythic version of the raid?

We just played Tapestry last night for the first time. We had no notion of the aforementioned balance changes and the game was won by the Traders. Granted it was our first time playing so we were all going in blind in terms of what was possible. I really enjoyed the game. Seems like a...

They do show in the episode that there are public 'transporter arches' outside that have people continually beaming in/out as they walk through.

Lord Geebus save us from the cult of Agile

Who signed off on this? What on Earth were they thinking?

Got around to watching the second series of Short Treks now that I re-upped for Picard. Where the everliving fuck is my Pike Enterprise series? Seriously Anson Mount, Rebecca Romijn and Ethan Peck are rocking these characters.

I just thought it was a Cubone(Pokemon) cosplayer.

Is this thing completely dead now? What a sad state of affairs it has been.

The second episode is out and I find myself really liking the Romulan house-staff husband and wife. I am guessing that all of this is going to tie back to the Romulans having been horribly victimized by the Borg at somepoint in their past. This would tie in nicely to that whole first season...

That was as near perfect as I could have reasonably expected. I also bawled my damn eyes out.

Did the offshore this to Angola or something? What the heck? I mean yeah 'Blizzard' is dead but we're talking about doing minimal technology updates to something incredibly old that should, by all rights, run within an iframe on a website.

She has to be 0th or -1st etc Doctor given the TARDIS interior, general state of Gallifreyan civilization, lack of sonic, etc. I'm betting that the 1st Doctor got his mind wiped and thus believes it was his first regeneration into the 2nd when in fact it may have been his Nth. It does gel...

Kes was just a big mistake of a character that was poorly used. It was one of, admittedly many, mis-steps that were made when Voyager was first greenlit.

You could tell they had to push the abort button on a lot of stuff they wanted to do. There are hints of things all over the place but they tried to summer too long and the fire just went out. Ultimately the show is just a weird little offshoot that has no relevance to anything other than...

I assumed given their hand-waving bit about building a new synthetic android from a single cell from Data that the first step might divide the original cell into two which then continue to replicate into distinct twins.

Wow. It has been a long LONG time since I've been surprised by a Doctor Who episode. I was expecting none of this and it's pretty damn awesome in a Cartmel MasterPlan sort of way. I loved the shit out of this!

The ninja assassins who beam in are Romulan, but clearly the Federation is in on it since the whole coverup business happened. Hell Picard himself might have been vanished had he not just given a high profile interview the previous evening.

The nature of Data was an overarching plotline for Next Generation which was then extended into both the 'augments' and hologram stories in subsequent shows. The whole issue with eugenics / genetic alteration is a huge historical demon for Starfleet owing to WW3 on Earth and the various...

I see just a black box with some video controls. Seems broken-ish

With respect to the episode itself I am very interested to see where this story goes. The initial premise was just 'Picard when old' but this promises to really do a thorough examination of some of the most profound overarching themes that extended throughout the Next Generation.

It's pretty sad to live your life in a constant state of near-triggered. Your stress level must be through the roof. It's like those few hundred 'Million Moms' who go apoplectic when they hear someone say the 'D word'... It's actually a form of SJW in and of itself.

Sure yeah it's cheezy dialogue, that's fine. I'm not expecting fine literature or thought provoking metaphors when I come into Warcraft...but if you are gonna be a popcorn flick kind of game then you need to at least be internally consistent. There is at least one person whose full time...

I kept hoping that some aspect of the story would make some sense, that there would be an 'ahhh' moment at the end of the expansion which gave a solid reason for what was going on. That doesn't seem to have happened. The 4th war (wasted as it is in a non RTS game) consists mostly of Sylvanas...

They best announce the new animated series soon... After Resistance got euthanized the dance card is looking sparse

Yeah that was annoying. I know that they did it for amusement of having the delay, but at that distance we are talking a delay of over an hour. People who watch the Expanse should be well aware of this.

It's when Obi Wan grabs Luke's forehead and he revives. Even as a kid I thought that mean that he had done something to Luke to bring him back around.

The point of the whole Sol Rega / first dark mage business was to show that the first dark mage was absolutely justified in being a dark mage. That dragons and xadians in general had treated humanity like slaves for centuries and that using dark magic was the only way I which the humans could...

Very nice. Looks like if and when there is another go round it will be because there is a good reason to do it.

Damnit! I mean I'm glad they are taking their time since the genre needs to be done well but it shoves yet more content into the Sept-Nov crunch with nada to enjoy now.

There seems to be a lot of judgement about this series before even a single episode is released.

It also seems as though the movie 'Barry Allen' may have just gotten the name 'The Flash' from the Arrowverse 'Barry Allen'

I havent watched any of the CW DC shows for a few years now except for the annual crossover and I kept up just fine. They structured the episodes of this crossover in particular in such a way that you could barely recognize which show was which and only then by there being slightly more of the...

Also a nice chance to reboot the timeline, as was done with the original Crisis, and let that help with storytelling going forward. Most notably by making Lex into a humanitarian who won the Nobel Peace Prize and is in charge of the DEO. Smart also that they kept the multiverse so that they...

That was pretty epic all things considered. Ended exactly as I had hoped with the Hall of Justice.

Can we discuss how it is that this bitch does not age?? Good lord the man is gonna be 49 this year.

I actually expected Taron Egerton to get a nom for Rocketman as well as Awkwafina who were both recognized by the Golden Globes and Screen Actors Guild. Not nominating Frozen 2 for animated feature seems very strange as does not nominating Beyonce for her new Lion King song. That move alone...

"We shove it down as far as we can and we open and book and say 'how can we save the world!' and we just keep...on...saving...it!" Damn I enjoy this show. Also FEN!

Perfect World/Cryptic do have a habit of asymptotically approaching greatness and then veering off at the last minute to land squarely in mediocrity.
