Re: Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

I started the series, and actually forgot to return to it, mid-episode, probably episode 5. They tried so hard, and the actors do an adequate job for the writing they're given. The writing is still a little off. A super-well-connected-to-subordinates Captain Pike? And poor Spock's dialog and rewriti...

Re: Uncharted

I enjoyed the movie. The plot holes are larger than the [spoilers] they see and [spoilers] with a helicopter but it was a fun romp.

Oh, I've heard all the broadcast episodes now! I reviewed them on the Reviews board. That's how I have as much to say about the Morrie and Suzu criminals as I do.

Re: Morrie and Suzu

Yeah, the 2010 thing is a bit of a stretch. That was when I stopped listening, and when the new voice of Whit came along. So what, generation 4 of AIO kids/characters? It's like Sherlock: throw out season 4 and it's the best show BBC ever produced. Or like how the Matrix is a good movie; it should h...

Re: Morrie and Suzu

I don't have the eloquence that others have. Morrie and Suzu are siblings who entered town and basically set up a bunch of other children (mostly Emily Jones) in a set of situations that build character at the expense of mental anguish and without safeties that their parents would have wanted.

Re: What books are you reading?

"1632" by Eric Flint. Come to find out, this alternative history story is really just a ruse to get you to learn about the Thirty Years' War in Europe (1618-1648). It worked. One of my favorite arguments: Protestants versus Catholics, plus cannons! Oh, and the book was quite interesting. I...

Re: Age of Empires 2 Definitive Edition

I remember the original "Age of Empires." I had a demo of it for my Windows 98 computer, and the one mission in the demo gave you two priests and you had to go "convert" units to join your side. The closest enemy was a small village, so you would have to use your priests to conve...

Re: 022: A Simple Addition

It's not that deep. It was definitely geared towards the youngest possible audience in the scale of the whole possible audience of AIO. But on average, 2/5.

0020: Mike Makes Right

This episode broadcast on 2022-03-16 Episode summary Billy Barton, the bully of Odyssey Elementary, gets into a fight with Mike Caldwell. When Mike wins, he becomes arrogant and lets stardom go to his head. My thoughts Mike Makes Right is an OK episode. Kids need to learn that you can't rest on your...

Re: What books are you reading?

I just re-read "Starman Jones" by Robert Heinlein. It's one of his juvenile fiction stories, so it's more family-friendly than some of his works. It's also a fun space adventure.

Re: Hawkeye

I like archery, and Hawkeye has always been a fun character for me in this Marvel cinematic universe. I appreciate the tongue-in-cheek nature they have about an archer being in the same group as the innately powerful characters like Thor. (Of course I would not use the term god to describe such char...
