Agreed. I didn't like it either.

I don't mean V. Though I never watched it didn't seem too bad. That family dinosaur show though  :

was horrible.

i wonder when they will reboot logan's run

[comaphobe]

they will probably reboot dinosaurs too. this time they will be a black dinosaur family who live next door to a transgendered dinosaur.

and the dinosaur family will sit around the kitchen table glitching with their faces embedded into their phones. the show will have a wordpress based website with next to no worthy content with crass links to facebook, twitter, instagram, youtube, and other stupid google services.

nancy and annie wilson circa 1984.

LOL.

Dinosaurs was a big deal. I remember a lot of people were obsessed with it. Classmates and teachers. My dad bought himself the talking baby doll.

I think he still has it somewhere.

It just came to me! This is what killed the dinosaurs off. It wasn't asteroids. It was the chilling air of political correctness. Much, much colder than an ice age

i think it was part of the ABC/disney TGIF friday lineup? i couldn't stand it. family matters was fun though.

I heard about it a while ago, but so far, nothing is forthcoming.  http://www.slashfilm.com/logans-run-reboot/
It kind of looks like they're going to replace me with a female lead just like they did w/ BSG and Starbuck.

I hope that Logan is female and she and Jessica (now black) are lovers and they are running away from and fighting the straight cis white male patriarchy.

Nothing will ever hold a candle to the original. You get to see jenny Agutter's boobs in that one!

Yeah, let's ruin everything 

I know you're joking!

it's like a national lampoon movie from 30 years ago compared to a recent one. unfunny and insulting. the fun has been erased. just like warner brother cartoons which have been edited and then re released, and then they hope that you don't notice that several scenes are missing a memorable series of frames. who needs big brother when the corporations censor themselves. if it weren't for them keeping us safe from our own opinions we might all be monsters by now. we should thank them for providing a sterile environment for us.

Are you opposed to feminism [equal rights for women] and diversity?


I'm not wanting to start a deal here since I'm getting ready to turn in. I'm just curious that's all.

I think you're on to something there doc. PC is killing everything. Since when do you call a tree leaf a green energy and life producing wood component so as to not hurt it's feelings? 'Cultural Communism' is for pussies that can't handle living in the real world.

Yes, in a cold environment.

i recently read that they are going to redo westworld. it will probably have a black lesbian playing the role of yul brenner.. and the other 2 guys will be played by a gay web designer who weighs 127 pounds and owns 2 smart phones and 3 tablets with 4 facebook accounts.. his counterpart will be a baseball cap wearing fruitcup with a straight visor and a bad case of fuckeye.

And then people actually wonder why we see so many peeps losing it and going postal - sheesh.
Sterile movies suck.

Please don't start up with me in an attempt to ruin my most beloved SciFi. You already win on MITD and you're always here on Bellgab. Are you really so greedy that you must attempt to possess everything?!

i wish i was dead.

You're missing the point. Take BSG for ex. . Why wasn't 'Starbuck' renamed 'Stardoe' ? If you're going to gender switch, at least have the character name reflect it.

That's another thing. What the hell is up w/ all the remakes. The hollywoodland brain trust no longer has the imagination to come up w/ something original anymore ? Or is this just plain and simple culture destruction ?

Let's not forget what the feminists seem to forget, with equal rights come equal responsibility. If you're qualified to do the job, I could give two fucks less if you're male, female, black, white, red, yellow, or reptilian. Some of the best programmers I know are female.

I know! And here I am just pulling great ideas out of my ass like Nazi Lizards From 4chan! Scary! I'm sure it would've made Count Floyd's rotation...eventually

i think we are unanymously opposed to pretentious PC bullshittery.

i like how star trek and star trek TNG handled that element. they just did it, nobody demanded it or even expected it. the women in the series are strong, and i can't say the same for much recent stuff. male or female, characters these days can't stand on their own and in 18 months they are replaced by the next production actor anyways. in the original 2 terminator movie sarah connor goes from being a naive waitress to a self-sufficient killing machine in just 2 movies. linda hamilton had to earn those chops and that's why the world respected sarah connor.

personally i think it's by design; culture destruction. i think we are fucked and the media is doing nobody any favors.

[comaphobe]

and fuck google too. they are as bad as any cable tv conglomerate.
