[QUOTE]Originally posted by Malnurtured Snay: [QB] Let me post here again, because I re-read your last post again, and it really pisses me off. Maybe you're used to people accepting you as an authority on "Star Trek", and that has gone to your head. What the fuck ever. If you post on Flare, people are going to disagree with you, and crying "wah, they're attacking me" isn't going to work very well. I don't watch Enterprise this season because of my schedule, so I really don't have an opinion on it. I do have many opinions, and I generally don't keep quiet about them, and if you feel I'm attacking you, why don't you go to the TrekBBS or some other board that doesn't enjoy the same level of discourse we here on Flare do? If Charles hadn't posted his "I'm dissapointed" thread I would've told you how I feel about you re: your post in much more (shall we say) "colorful" vocabulary, but I won't. Now, you started a topic, I replied on topic, and then you took us off topic. You can get us back ON topic, or this thread will most likely be closed down pretty soon. Your choice. ** To follow back up on my original post: I don't feel that this was a missed opportunity. I think it was great that DS9 poked fun at the makeup mishaps and changes between TOS and the movies, and unless you're one of the "TOS always looked like the movies (in reality)" crowd, then you must've had an opinion on why the change occured. It's often said that the less said about something, the better. Very little was said -- and what do we have? Confirmation that TOS actually LOOKED like what we saw, *AND* the opportunity to use our imagination to decide for ourselves what happened to the Klingons. That's great stuff. Back on the Klingons again, everyone debated what the "disasterous first contact" with the Klingon Empire meant. Everyone assumed some sort of military conflict, but what we found out was that it was a political blunder. The unexpected is again, great. One political blunder eventually gives way to such a destructive relationship -- gives you pause (especially considering our bumbling monkey of a president). [/QB][/QUOTE]
