An innocuous thread…

Okay, lots of rancour and argument in the Soapbox. How about a debate on the top ten sci-fi characters (human or, as an alternative, not human). I select the following: 1: Neo: cos he's so far up his own arse he may as well be an alien. 2: Alien: Grrr. 3: Jean-Luc Picard: Pretentious git. 4: Frank Poole: stupid cunt. 5: Adama: who thinks up these names anyway? 6: Gort: Shoulda been in charge :-) 7: Darth Vader: should have let him keep Prowse's voice. 8: Everyone in Solaris (any version): could this have been any more boring... 9: Jodie Foster: wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. 10: Luke Skywalker: just because he suffers form small-man sydrome.

Jean-Luc Picard: Pretentious git. No where near far enough I am afraid. He is a cock sucking pretentions twat. When he first saw Red Dwarf, his fist instinct was to phone his lawyers about suing the red dwarf production comapny for imitating star treck. What! Has he's got a monopoly on space adventure programs? What an arsehole. Nunc est bibendum!

Bah. A wishy, washy bunch of pretenders :-D 1. Captain James T Kirk - The Captain of the Enterprise, except no subsititues 2. Buck Rogers (The 70s version) - James Bond in space. Nuff said. 3. Yoda - Small, green and funny looking frog, but will kick your ass if you call him that to his face. 4. Starbuck (The 70s version) - Kicking Cylon arse whilst smoking a cigar - class 5. Avon (From Blakes 7) - You couldn't trust him, but you'd want him on your side. 6. Servalan (again from Blakes 7) - The ultimate in Sci-Fi sex-appeal (at least she was when I was 10) 7. Doctor Who - More faces than Tony Blair but actually helps the people who need it the most 8. Senator Palpatine - runs both sides of a galaxy wide war and nobody figures it out. Genius. 9. Spock - His blood may be green but his best mate is Captain Kirk, so he's alright in my book 10. Princess Leia - Gold Bikini, what more do I have to say :-D Michael CP Blog [^] Development Blog [^]

Obviously, I forgot to add an appropriate smiley to my message, making it clear that I too wasn't all that serious. Well not to that degree which has been perceived. :-D Good music: In my rosary[^]

Have you not watched ST:TNG. Even the bloody name is pretentious twaddle. Look, I'm sure that Patrick Stewart is a very nice chap but if he were my boss I'd want to shove a stick of dynamite up his arse to wipe that smug-git smile off his shiny bald head. Should have killed him at Farpoint and let Riker take charge. At least he has a personality. Yes, I know you can never trust a man with a beard. Okay, okay, so I never missed an episode and had the lot on video AND joined the Star Trek fan club. Ooh, did you know that the first program ever broadcast in the UK in color (as a test broadcast) was an episode of ST.

D'ya know I can't handle this any more. I don't even like you but I keep having to agree with you. Don't you find it just a tad irritating that a tosser like me keeps agreeing with a wanker (compounded because you live in Europe) like you?

Picard is the second best Captain in Starfleet after Kirk. He was a little annoying in the first season, where he used the ship's self-destruct more than he fired the phasers. He grew into a very interesting character over the later seasons. Although I still like the alternate Picard from 'Yesterdays Enterprise', where he's fighting a war against the Klingons. Riker was just an annoying, smirking smug git. Mind you if I was shagging Troi, then I think I'd do a little bit of smirking too.

I would nominate the character Tim Allen played in 'Galaxy Quest', or the Harrison Ford character in Blade Runner. "Capitalism is the source of all true freedom."

Yes, I am only extracting urine with my comments and am being deliberatly (where I can be) contentious cos I'm hyper over a rollout that starts in 1 hour. I always thought (until Enterprise) that TNG was the best Star Trek and Kirk the best captain. I don't have an opinion on Bakula but loved the series. We get the finale next Tuesday on Sky and I particularly liked the 2 episodes that took place in an alternate universe: those stories always alow them to get a bit more dark and visceral than the normal, morally over stocked episodes. Tra-la: just an opinion.

Stan, yet again you hit the nail on the head with an atomic hammer. Galaxy Quest is the double-dogs bollocks of a film and Tim Allen was excellent in the part. I still laugh each time I see it. It would be best if he were offered a part in whatever the Star Trek franchise comes up with next. Maybe Galaxy Quest, the tv series?

legalAlien wrote: Galaxy Quest is the double-dogs bollocks of a film and Tim Allen was excellent in the part. I still laugh each time I see it. Absolutely. It gets no respect, but, in truth, is probably one of the top five best science fiction movies ever made. It is probably my third favorite SF movie - right behind The Day the Earth Stood Still and 2001. (If we are talking true science fiction, that is. Movies like 'Alien' don't count because, while an excellent movie, it was really only a scary monster story, and 'Star Wars' is more sword and socery than true science fiction) "Capitalism is the source of all true freedom."

Ouch. Kirk sucked man. Picard out-classed and out-smarted him all the time. That's the difference between a three year season and a seven year one. Hell, even Sisko and Janeway were better than Kirk. :) "If only one person knows the truth, it is still the truth." - Mahatma Gandhi Web - Blog - RSS - Math
