Cloverfield looks like a Godzilla type of movie. There may be a couple giant beasts and one of them ends up fighting the other to save the little people of New York.

Check your original post, my friend, #114. I was the one that inserted the word modern in caps when I quoted you, modifying your original statement.

My assertation was correct based on how you wrote you original comment, I merely took the libery of modifying it for you.

“And I would revise your statement to say: “BSG beats any MODERN Trek hands down for story telling, humanity, and truly reflecting the world in which we live.” Classic Trek is unsurpassed and comparing it to current BSG is unfair due to television being a completely different creature back in the 60’s to what it is now.” No offence but read what I posted! “BSG beats any MODERN Trek” clearly I was not comparing it to Classic Trek. I am not going to revise mt statement as you assertation that I compared 60’s tv to modern tv is incorrect.

199 – ‘Course, depending on when we see the Enterprise in the film, if we’re seeing it closer to the time of “The Cage”, and we follow canonical Trek carefully, to include the red railing might in fact be a contradiction and therefore incorrect.

[grin, duck, run like hell...] :)

Best,

Charm and magnetism are ATTRACTIVE qualities!

Funny, if you transmogrify the two words together, you get CHARISMA!! :)

My comment did not say the characters were not good. But not even this group of actors was at their best every episode. Lots of reruns help gloss that over in viewers minds. The eps and characters become old friends… marginal performances and writing are forgiven. Even “Spocks Brain” and the like.

#174 “yes, TOS characters are endearing, but recall we’ve had them around for 40 years… a twenty year headstart on the younger sister series. i think in all things we recall the good and become nostalgic and gloss over the bad.”

There isn’t much bad to consider. TOS has held up for 40 years because the characters were magnetic, not the other way around. Nick Meyer said it best when discussing the cast: “The extra-terrestrial quality known as charm, which these people possess in abundance.”

Ha, that reminds me of someone a few months back who was bitc….err, complaining that if they did anything to the color scheme of the bridge, ie. the red railing, that he would just hate it completely.
