Star Trek Enterprise....(spoiler already)

Ok. Maybe that's not a spoiler because TV Guid said it was going to happen. But TV Guide saying it's going to happen and watching it is two different things.
 
this being star trek, i bet they go back in time and fix it.

BTW is this the Season Finale? I haven't watched the show since mid season one when i gave up on it.
 
Yeah. They just "updated" the Enterprise. It went all of the way to Venezuela.

Jeff, you missed the Borg episode a couple weeks ago? Bummer.

Satellite carves a big line in the earth with big death ray vs flying tin cans crashed into a building.

"Flying tin cans crashed into a building". I'd glad that you don't write sympathy cards for Hallmark! :disgust:

Anyway, I was thinking more along the lines of where Archer and Trip were staring in the giant crater where a town used to be. Don't you think that scene was supposed to remind you of something?

Historically, there were a lot more worse things than 9-11. Comparatively, 9-11 wasnt even close to the worst atrocity committed in history. There are far more events that deserve more sympathy.

And BTW, that scene reminds me of Hiroshima more than 9-11, at the level of destructiveness. Lets compare:

9-11: no more than 10 buildings toppled, with 3000 fatalities.
Hiroshima: more than 1/2 the city leveled, with ~120K fatalties.
Enterprise, Expanse: big 3KM wide line drawn from Florida to Venuezeula annhilating everything in its path, 7 million fatalities.
 
You know what I was thinking, though....

They say a big asteroid, or meteor or whatever, the size of the Gulf of Mexico nailed the Earth and killed all of the dinosaurs.

Wouldn't you think a laser that would cut a trench that large into the Earth would disrupt tectonic plates to the point where the destruction would be more wide spread? EArthquakes, volcanos and the such.

When the laser was cutting through the Atlantic ocean, wouldn't you think the calateral tidal waves that would likely result cause destruction all around the world?

Wouldn't you?

Good episode. The ship battle at the end was probably the best from Trek TV I've ever seen.

You missed some DS9 battle episodes eh?
 
I've never liked Enterprise as much as TNG but this sounds interesting. I don't get TV Guide.. is there gonna be a rerun?

As for this being too close to 9-11.. it's a TV show and it's 3 years later, and from what I've heard there are no single incidents of any sort of spacecraft hitting buildings. If this offended you, you oughta stay away from the game Jenga, cause that'll freak you out. 😛

I never really got into DS9. I know there have been 'bigger' battle scenes in both that and TNG, but this time I was actually interested in the action, rooting for the Enterprise, and feeling like cheering when they actually blew that ship the fvck up. 🙂

You'll have to check your listings somehow. The local UPN station does their Enterprise rerun Sunday at 8pm, but YMMV.
 
lol he said "go to hell" 🙂 thats more like it! stop trying to be picard. gotta fit the progression from kirk to picard heh.
 
yep the "go to hell" line was great ahhaha guess he didn't want to put up with that bs after all that's happened


though i think it's kind of lame they use previous trek technology and just modify the name a big

handheld phasers - phase pistols
ship phasers - phase cannons
photon torpedoes - photonic torpedoes

what's next? shield barrier? tractoring beam?
 
well some things don't change all that much. over a hundred years ago we had canons. we still have "canons" 🙂
 
maybe. i just wish they made the names more original or less original ie identical, it just looks half-assed and cheesy to me 😉

when things just got invented or a new technology comes out, people tend to call it by the long name. ie: photon torpedoes is short for photonic torpedoes. like TV's were used to called televisions, or phone = telephone.
