WannaBe: Future research project, how did Offenbach - Orpheus in the Underworld became "Can Can" and women kicking legs before the Radio City Hall Rocketts. An history that probably need some "Lookin Into"

WannaBe: ¡Olé! ¡Olé! this is what I see for "¡Olé! ¡Olé!" (game of the day Mar-13-2026) I also know this issue have been around for a while, and it's not that important, in IT term, it is a level 'C', cosmetic fix. But I just wish to report it again. Can CG.com unify this ...

WannaBe: You made a comment on Skyline chili on another forum, about a month ago. Today I came across this YT video: https://iq-dist-2.com/s/page/2y888-... My convenient/easy go to is Hormel (BEANLESS!!), I do Chili Mac or use them for Chili Omelets

WannaBe: <FSR> March 11 is his birthday, and usually PoD is chosen from the birth date of the player. So unless CG.com decides to change the algorithm on how PoD is decided. We will randomly get "undesired" player(s).

  WannaBe: Here we go! Season 3, episode 3. And let's turn it up to 11!! (Wait, wrong reference). How about Use da Schwartz?

Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: 2 1/2 minutes in. I don't like it already. It's "Rumoured" to cure? And the doctor said it.

Then the doctor further went on to explain this is "Prohibited", "No Fly Zone". So what the hell is that Vulcan with pointed ear standing there for??

He is the first officer, yes?!!?

  WannaBe: Strange New World, Season 3, Episode 4...

Looks to be a short one, only 47m total running time...

(Goodness sake, I hope it is better than the previous 3) And let's "Engage", or "Punch it" or "Make it so"

  WannaBe: Intro is hilarious...

  WannaBe: Slight nod to "Matrix".

  WannaBe: Thus far, it is better, reminds me of the STNG dancing scene...

  WannaBe: "Apparently" Spock can trace his genes back to some certain British Doctor that wrote mystery stories.

Well, he is half (or is that one-half) human.

What is the difference between half and one-half? That have always confused me...

  WannaBe: Love the continuous reference to Star Trek movie title... And they sure made it very obvious.
Aug-01-25
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: This episode doth harken back to the DS9 episode (One of my all time favourite) where Sisko is a sci-fi writer and all the characters are without (sci-fi) make-ups.

They cast appeared as they would.

  WannaBe: That line, after #1 died after drinking the "Martini"

killed me.

  WannaBe: That engineering table looks very familiar, re-used set/prop from Next Generation?

(Them TV shows do it all time to cut down on cost, instead of paying union workers to put up new ones. Totally screwing over workers while promoting workers rights)

  WannaBe: I think they just totally ripped W. Shatner a new one... And I love it.
Aug-01-25
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: So far, I'm lovin' this (McD plug). Just saw another W. Shatner dig...
Aug-01-25
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: Oh, this is a serious dig at the original cancellation and the fan-mail that kept it alive (Albeit briefly, and the movie, and the sequels...)

Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: Shoulda have known, this is Jonathan Frake directed episode... The quality just shows.

(Directors and which episode are all random, thrown in to a "hat" and you get what "you get")

This one is up there. A very, very solid A++

The out-tro is LMFASO

Aug-03-25
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: Went back and "Re-viewed" the out-tro. That is totally no bloopers, but intentionally filmed. That "Chair" scene gave it all away.

Still totally hilarious.

  WannaBe: Half way through "28 Years Later"... F----
Aug-06-25
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: Looks like Jurassic Park/Word/Universe 10 or 11 or 12 or whatever, is now available on streaming...

I am going to give it a try (reviews that I've read have not been 'ahem' gentle)

See if I can go through more than half way, before I gag, like I did with "28 Years Later".

  WannaBe: Oh, good God/Allah/Buddha just 2:00 in and I am hating it. You are showing a landing pad video camera feed next to a DNA sequencesor, and it's on an 8" monitor

Then people/scientists are shown with top of the "line" science suits for outer space, while eating a freakin' candy bar.

I'll just start this movie at F------------ and it will have to work/earn its way up

(Which I very much doubt it will...)

  WannaBe: Hey, dumbazzzzzes, that 1985 orange CRT is telling you warning....

  WannaBe: No, No, No. "Objects in mirror are closer than they appear" are not in the Port side of the car in U.S. Especially if this is in New York City and the driver is on the left side of the car, instead of the right side.

That is just totally wrong. And you can obviously tell it is CGI or AI on a very poor attempt at the original. Where is appropriately appeared on the starboard/right side of the car's mirror.
