[QUOTE]Originally posted by TSN: [QB] We need to get a little more creative here. "Night of the Living Tech" would have been such the better thread title. But, that's what comes of not watching it first, I suppose. Two things I noticed that haven't been mentioned: 1. The pulse rifles seem to be weaker than the beam pistols. I don't know if the beam is able to deliver more energy since it's continuous or what, but Archer and T'Pol's pistols seemed to dispatch the first couple zombies faster than Reed and MACO did with their rifles. Until they turned them up to "kill", I mean. 2. Even though the zombies seemed to be at full strength, T'Pol seemed very weakened by her condition, considering the way Archer was able to hold her down, knock the pistol out of her hand, etc. Then again, the zombies weren't sweating, getting distracted, etc. either, so maybe it's just the first stages that are so debilitating. <blockquote>"Though they never offered any explanation for the asteroid field, this particular SFX-of-the-week can't have been a natural phenomenon..."</blockquote> They did explain it. Not too specifically, but they said that the anomalies were causing the weirdness. Archer even pointed out that he could understand the Vulcans' attraction to the field, showing us that he recognized it as abnormal. We also saw an anomaly change the direction of Tucker and Mayweather's asteroid, demonstrating the effect of the anomalies on the field. <blockquote>"...it seems that the Vulcans have forcefield technology that can already be used to seal hull breaches and prevent excessive loss of atmosphere."</blockquote> I didn't see the hole because of the crappy reception on our UPN affiliate, but was it somehow at odds with the statement made on approaching the ship that two or three decks were without atmosphere? <blockquote>"This whole episode had a pitiful computer-game feel to its plot..."</blockquote> I thought the exact same thing. Though, only for a minute while there was nothing else going on. I mean, the whole episode didn't feel exclusively game-ish. [/QB][/QUOTE]
