That makes sense to me Wedge. I would've thought it something that's a kind of concept piece for the scene, but here we have an FMV capture. It's rather puzzling. These days I'd expect something like this from a game... a concept screen here and there of decent resolution, but not back in 1994...

Um, don't you mean the Concordia?

Why would anyone want to marry underwater? Why would anyone want to marry while dressed as Star Wars/Star Trek/What-have-you characters? Why do we do anything? Because we can. I'm having something of a traditional wedding, but early on it was posited by my fiance that we all get swords. I was...

I went to it intending to enjoy myself and I did. So, it was a good flick. I went with a mildly obsessive Trek fan and he enjoyed it too (mostly because I gave him a hard time about talking during movies and about not enjoying something because it isn't EXACTLY the same as the past ones).

I definitely agree on Forbidden Planet being one of the best, however, JMS already got his "grubby paws" on it while doing Babylon 5. The Great Machine on Epsilon III was a near copy of the big machine from Forbidden Planet. Also, where the effects were definitely Disney, I didn't feel as though...

Hey, I played through the whole game without messing with power options. Also, I adapted to the situation and used the Thunderbolt, which I happen to prefer over the Excalibur anyway. To each their own.

My girl has actually played Wing Commander Prophecy and claims to be terrible at it. However, I plugged my computer into her television and managed to fly several missions with her at rapt attention. Definite keeper!

:D I suppose I needed to do that! Never thought about it. It's been years since I've played. For the most part I never had to do the whole energy management thing unless I was on one of the higher difficulty settings.

The one's I've played the least are WC1 and WC2. I was introduced to the whole series through WC3 and so by the time I got to get my hands on copies of WC1 and 2, I had to play them on DOSBox. I really enjoyed 1 and 2, but I just haven't had as many opportunities to play them as I have the other...

I actually really disliked the Excalibur's weapon loadout mostly because I was constantly running out of energy too quickly thanks to those power hungry tachyon cannons. There was this one mission late in WC3, before you left for Kilrah, where you had to take out this really big ship. I would...

I never liked the Seether character. I always looked forward to kicking his teeth in. Jazz, on the other hand, I liked from time to time. I really did feel betrayed (same with Hobbes) when he turned. Jazz just seemed more evil to me. So, in an "evil-off" Jazz wins. In the Dragon +...

I'm taking my girl out to her favorite restaurant and then we're swinging by Godiva and she can pick out what she wants.

Went with Trident mostly due to the three-pronged nature of the ship.

Personally, I've never seen the Ewok ones or the Holiday Special, so they never occurred to me. Oh well.

According to many sources, the term "Star Destroyer" just refers to a generic style of capital ship. Effectively, you could say "Imperial-class Big Ship" just like "Imperial-class Star Destroyer". As far as I know, there is no such thing as a "Vindicator-class Star Destroyer". Vindicator is...

Not acceptable as such, just inevitable. You provide people with a pile of info that has some sort of continuity, you're gonna have someone nitpicking over the smallest bits.

I think Tolwyn would've committed suicide anyway. Life imprisonment or death sentence, it probably wouldn't have mattered to him.

I agree that you can't just jump into the middle of one of the many trilogies and series and understand what's going on. It's most noticeable during the New Jedi Order series and I found it highly irritating. To this day, I still haven't read many of those books. I refuse to touch the Legacy of...

In the books they refer to it as Trench Run Disease (TRD). Imperial I-class Star Destroyers are vulnerable to it as are many other capital class ships. However, this takes into account a full squadron of X-Wing or similar class fighters. In Babylon 5, a similar technique is called "skin dancing"...

I still have my WCIV and WCIII boxes and materials... I never did own a copy of the original Wing Commander so it's cool to see everything that the game used to come with. I miss the flavor stuff that games used to come with. That's the problem with all these digital downloads and such - you...
