Just finished watching "Galaxy Quest" with the kids...

[Shine]

1. I love that movie......

It is so funny......

[Az]

2. Watch it again with the language set to Thermese

The DVD we have has an alternate language. They sat down and recorded the entire movie in the alein language. Its freeking hilarious.

[Shine]

3. LOL!! That's hysterical! I'll have to check the DVD we rented

from Blockbuster. Thanks for the tip, Az!

:rofl:

4. It was a good spoof and showed alot of love for the

"typical" fans. One of the few films I've watched over and over and over.

Red laser, fire. Blue laser, fire. Okay, that's it, where's my check.

5. It's great, isn't it?

As an ST fan most of my life, and having been to many of those same kinds of conventions, I can totally relate. A friend and I laughed so much we almost blew a gasket the night Shatner told fans to "get a life" on SNL. We KNOW those kinds of fans.

However, I must say that Creation has ruined convention going for me. They've changed the rules--and not for the better--for convention going, and it's not fun anymore.

6. What a great flick.

Nailed so many things, so well, in just the right way.

"Oh, that's NOT right!"

...What a savings...:rofl:

[Beware the Beast Man]

16. "Just like mother used to make..."

:D

8. Galaxy Quest was one of the best Star Trek films.

;)

[BigMcLargehuge]

9. it was certainly better than ALL of the NextGen films

[Gothic Sponge]

11. Well, I liked First Contact

I definitely think it was better than ST 5 (The search for god, and cash) ;)

[BigMcLargehuge]

12. First contact made me angry

the whole overdone time travel storyline, the Borg queen who is anything but a damn Borg... I didn't like it.

[Hong Kong Cavalier]

17. You mean I'm not the only ST fan who thought FIrst Contact was crap?

Yay!

In case you're wondering, I'm serious...I couldn't stand First Contact.

[BigMcLargehuge]

18. I hated it

I hated ALL of the Next Gen movies.

[Hong Kong Cavalier]

19. I found this magazine called Sci Fi Universe....

Where one issue they had a long list of what was simply Wrong with First Contact. I need to find that issue and post some of the items. It was very, very funny.
(It's been out of print for nearly 8 years now)

[BigMcLargehuge]

20. I probably have it here somewhere

I bought it every month until it was bought by Science Fiction Age then The Sci Fi Channel.

I LOVED it when it was a product of the guys from Film Threat!

[Hong Kong Cavalier]

23. Found it!

I lost the cover of the issue, but the article is titled "Worst Contact: How continuity hurt Star Trek VIII" by Robert Meyer Burnett and David J. Hargrove.

for example: "Put one foot in front of the other and soon you'll be walkin' on the hull.." So the Borg are building an "interplexing beacon" on the deflector dish of the Enterprise-E. Time is of the essence. Let's just WALK in zero gravity with magnetic boots hundreds of yards across the hull of the ship instead of using an unassimilated transporter room or one of those nifty rocket packs from The Motion Picture

Funny stuff.

[BigMcLargehuge]

24. LOL!

[Hong Kong Cavalier]

25. My favorite (I promise I'll stop hijacking this thread after this)

"If at first you don't succeed, keep doing the same thing that caused you to fail in the first place." The Borg got their asses kicked the last time they sent a single cube to attack the Federation...so they send another one. By itself. With their Queen in the same vulnerable position. Again.

I enjoyed that magazine. It wasn't afraid to say when something popular didn't make sense or just simply was bad science-fiction. No budget, but it was fun to read.

[devilgrrl]

10. I LOVE that movie!!!!!!

[Blue_Tires]

13. it was easier a better movie than the

past three ST movies combined!!

[Flaxbee]

14. Never give up! Never surrender!

Lol. Wonderful movie. Just found a VHS copy at the thrift store for $1 so hubby and I snatched it up and watched it again last weekend. LOOOOOOVE that movie.

"This is very bad writing! Who wrote this??! They should be FIRED!"

[Beware the Beast Man]

15. The film that made me appreciate the comic stylings of Tony Shaloub.

He's hilarious in that flick. And Tim Allen's over the top Shatner impression was uncanny.

[BigMcLargehuge]

21. I found Shaloub first in Quick Change

(with Bill Murray) as the bus driver who speaks in an unknown language.

"Bluftonay... Bluftonay... Bluftonay!!!"

[RevCheesehead]

22. yeah, and Alan Rickman, too.

Every time I see Professor Snape, I see Dr. Lazarus. :)

[Dem2theMax]

26. I LOVE LOVE LOVE that movie!

Every time it's on I watch it. Even if it's on three days in a row. LOL.

Whenever I see Tim Allen rolling around in the dirt, doing 'Shatner,' I just about fall off the couch laughing.

[Mojambo]

27. WAY better than I expected.

It was a shockingly entertaining film.
