Hey Weldy! :hug: How are you?

My poor brother got freaked out by the arm-hand-finger-arm thing even before he got to the whirly 360-degree shiny Bonobutt... :evil:
I still can't figure out how they did that! Who says video effects weren't that good in 1991... :D

:lmao:

The camera was on some sort of wheel thing, IIRC - it's either in the booklet that's with the Best of dvd or it's in the director commentary :wink:

Weldy :wave:
 
I don't have the Best Of DVD... :reject: So many holes in my collection...

Yay, Star Trek! :D It would be awesome to be able to get some of that, I agree... Were they just selling Original series stuff or all sorts?
 
It was a long day and tomorrow is going to be a full day of family - my sister in laws birthday with all the kids and everyone around - so I'm going to get at much sleep as I can so I can be prepared :crack: :lol:


Talk to you all tomorrow :hug:
 
Goodnight SG! Have a good day tomorrow :wave:

TNG was my first love too, Weldy, I discovered it late at night when I was 15 or so, in the middle of 6th season. I think the first episode I saw was Chain of Command, that two-parter where Picard gets captured by the Cardassians... needless to say I was instantly hooked! :D
I did get a horrible shock when 7th season ended, then the TV station went immediately back to airing repeats of 1st season with no warning... I was like, "How come everyone's thinner, has more hair and forgot how to act?!" :yikes:

I grew to love DS9 while I was at uni though. :)

I think the producers wanted to end each series with 7 seasons until Enterprise got cancelled recently.

I became a fan starting with the first season of TNG....but I don't remember fully cause I was such a little kid. I do like to watch the reruns on G4 and Spike TV (Those are the stations that rerun them here in the United States).

There definitely was a seven-season pattern going on there.
The sci-fi channel just started here in Australia, which is very cool... :D

I got my mother into Star Trek when she wanted to know why I was staying up till midnight to watch it on a school night... :lol: She thinks Picard and Sisko were both sexy... I think she has a point :wink: Those voices...

The sci-fi channel has been popular here in the United States for years!

:giggle: about your Mom. I'm glad that Stewart got out of being typecasted as Picard.....but at a price though. I guess you have trade one typecasting for another sometimes :sigh:

Well, he was typecast as a Shakespearian stage actor before he started in TNG I guess... and taking roles like Professor X probably didn't help him shake off the whole sci-fi thing. :shrug:
Have you seen the Canterville Ghost TV movie that he was in? That was cool...
I'm trying to remember the name of a British show, I think it's called Extras... about these aspiring actors that get roles as extras in a range of different things, featuring prominent RL actors who make appearances on the show... Patrick Stewart was hilarious in the one he was in. :D
And he was in Frasier once too... Busy boy!

andberlin - I'm only slowly realising how awesome Youtube is... all those U2 video clips I never saw... interviews... Roadrunner getting caught :D
I sent my brother a link to the EBTTRT clip last night, after he said the Vertigo one made him dizzy... :lol:
(My favourite youtube clip is still my brother's name on the screen at the second Melbourne show last year!)

it took me a while as well. we've just upgraded to a faster broadband speed and yeah, the most awesome thing about it is being able to watch youtube videos without a hiccup - i've definitely seen more interviews, etc since! i think i'm starting to make my flatmates nervous with the amounts of random u2 knowledge i'm getting from it :reject:

*clings to andberlin* This one's a keeper :D

:eek: *blush!!*

(it's fi by the way, or fiona or whatever you feel like calling me!!)

I think it just illustrates that Australia rocks :wink: I guess they aired that episode more here or something... :shrug:

i second that theory - i'm surprised more people haven't realised this about us :wink: i remember seeing when i was quite young - so many afternoon cartoon shows on back in the early 90s...
 
heh! i don't think we would have - i've been lurking for quite a while now, i always seem to be a bit of a slow starter on new mb's :ohmy:

like i said above - i'm fiona, fi, whatever you feel like calling me!
 
Okay, that is scary... I was just reading one of your posts in the Caption thread#12, Brittany, and you suddenly appear over here! :eek:

Glad that your internet is behaving itself! :wave:

That's because he's British. Most British actors are typecasted in that regards. Most peope assume that they do at least one Shakespearin role....if by stage or screen :wink:

No....never heard of those shows before :shrug:

Hi Brittany and Andberlin :hug: :wave:
