I’m imagine a situation where three hundred people are just showing up in person where I am doing something. I’m not talking g about sharing some record of what I did online. That is how I interpreted that.

I’d be creeped out if 300 people I didn’t invite were tearing at me. Go away.

Do the Danish have anything to say about this?

Based on previous headlines, this sounds very normal.

What even is this? I just remember in grade school kids would be yelled at for drawing it on assignments.

Is that wood or clay?

Was this at Fan Fest Nights last year? I remember (but lost my card to redeem my photo) there was a photo op with a fake bridge. The actual bridge from PIC was on the walking attraction, Red Alert.

The staged reading for this year is going to be Galaxy Quest. No cast has been announced yet. Got my ticket. Took me ten minutes to purchase it due to technical difficulties.

This is fairly common. Don’t get upset over it. Video games with licensed IPs are taken down all the time.

Look, maybe Picard was unfamiliar with the El-Arian fighting style.

That was actually a Sabre product. They just used the acquisition to pivot to a Apple-style electronics company for a business oriented costumer base.

 
 

Also a shot of tequila.

 

Go time travel, build a warp ship, resist The Borg, and get drunk on tequila when a famous Human hits on you!

This is the Cadet comadge magnet from Fansets. They only have one Cadet variant, so no other colors. I wanted Engineering. I’ve spoken to the people at Fansets at STLV in the past and they said there is a strict review from CBS Studios.

 

Alright, I loved this movie. So much better than Kong: Skull Island. It was weird at one moment with Serizawa and Russell switched opinions.

Overall this was an emotional roller coaster. Godzilla was injured, so the humans came to the rescue and then they joined the fight against King Ghidorah. I am so pleased with this sequel. But I didn’t expect Serizawa to die along the way.

 

My gripe with this magazine is the cover clearly states it is celebrating the franchise’s 60th anniversary but only has content going up to STB. Nothing for rest of New Trek. Pisses me off when you don’t acknowledge the franchise as a whole when you say it is for the 60th anniversary.

So I stuck with it and watched movie number 2. Kong: Skull Island while not tying back to Godzilla (2014) heavily (or more than like three lines of dialogue total), failed to grip me as much. It felt like a muddled mash up of your stereotypical Vietnam War story and fantastical creatures horror jig. Most the time I couldn’t understand if I was meant to care for any of the humans. By the time it got to like the 1:30:00 mark, I felt the true conflict arose: kill vs. defend Kong. Most curious question: is Mason Weaver meant to be an Ann Darrow counterpart?

My mind immediately wants to compare this to Peter Jackson’s King Kong remake. I am most with that story for my connection to Kong. I’m certain I’ve seen the original but can’t confirm. Sorry Brie, but I think Naomi Watts was a better Darrow.

EDIT: Kinda pissed me of the post-credit scene was exactly that: post credits. That part should have been a slightly bigger focus of the plot.
