So to check - when Sloan violates the Federation’s principles so that other people don’t have to get their hands dirty, that’s bad, but when Sisko does it, that’s ok?

Evil must be opposed!

Not by me though. I’m checking right out.

The film is great as its own thing, but the book is excellent and Wil Wheaton’s narration is perfection.

I don’t know about the US, but in the UK, rebuilding would be covered by the homeowner’s buildings insurance.

Although insurance companies would probably try to claim it as an Act Of God to get out of it. Don’t know how that would go legally…

Oh, “bud hole…”

No, just a shitty kettle.

They probably decided they didn’t want to waste money paying to house an immigrant rapist and just deported him instead.

Unfortunately for Wells, only the tumour became invisible…

I’m still waiting to see ‘normal’ people taking about it or say it’s good. Is it as good as Andor?

Funny, I’d have said we’re closer to the new Star Wars cinematic trilogy than the EU.

You think you’ve won, then a few years later, oh look, fascism is back and it’s killing people in job lots again.

Interesting.

I think the pacing was a bit off - it mostly felt rushed. Could have done with being an extra 15-30 minutes, really.

Not sure about The War Chief

Tap for spoilerThey played music called The Master Vainglorious from the new Season 3, which gave the impression that he might have been The Master. Even after he’s been shot and his body removed, you could hear the beginning of the regeneration sound from off-screen.

Most of the effects were good. The colour did highlight just how cheap some of the sets were, such as the children’s magnets used as “control circuits” for the SIDRATs 🤣

I liked both the War Lord and the Doctor’s trials. I actually liked the regeneration sequence, although the second bit with Pertwee before he falls out of the TARDIS unconscious seemed unnecessary and a bit uncanny valley, even if the 1970/1980 gag was pretty good.

Overall, yes, I’d call that a success.
