SFDebris: Tsunkatse

Post by Captain Seafort »

Blip

I'm a bit surprised that Chuck gave this one such a low score, given how he used it in Unity. Looks like he was more impressed by the potential of the setup than the episode itself.

It's like anything else in Voyager, the ideas arent always bad, but they are always squandered. The story isn't badly done, it's just a generic forced to fight story. Everything behind it is generic bland, kind dumb Voyager. Finally, when you look at what it was supposed to do it failed at it. It probably should have been a six since while there is a lot of the usual generic Voyager blandness it had it's moments of at least doing the bland well. Better fight scenes, some good conversations, etc. I'd have given it a six.

Or that could just be my Dwayne Johnson mancrush talking. Him and Jeri Ryan in the same ring, the fanfic just writes itself and it's all NC-17.

Of course this is before The Rock became all roided up too.

I kind of like the idea of mechant ships that are so rich and poserful they are a law unto themselves. Probably a more realistic version of space.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

In a way, like the original Ferengi, powerful pirates. But more de centralised.
