    I heard there is a scene in Star Trek of JJ Abrams raping Kirk's childhood.

    I can't believe on the Terminator Salvation list of cuts you didn't put the T-1 LURCHING out of the water in the tunnels. This was featured prominently in the first teaser, but was nowhere to be found in the actual release prints.


    As I was watching it, and kicking myself for paying for it, I was expecting that thing to punch out of the water, never happened. Lame.

    @Isaac Marchionna: I went back and checked for that scene in the trailer, and I think it actually came from later in the movie, where Connor is in the water after his helicopter crashes when he's searching for Marcus.

    This is the moral equivalent of the book jacket copy never seeming to properly describe (and often failing to bear any relationship to) what actually takes place *in* the book.

    There are a few scenes from the trailers for Star Trek: Nemesis that didn't make it to the screen, including Troi getting mind-raped in a turbolift, and Riker telling the Viceroy "it's dark in hell" before killing him.

    "Annalee has been annoyed for years that this movie's trailer featured dragons fighting helicopter"

    I finally watched D-War this weekend and that statement right there must explain much of her love for that movie.

    That question's easy. Homer traveled back in time while trying to fix the toaster. He sneezed, and it wiped out all the dinosaurs, thus making Flanders the unquestioned ruler of the world.

    What about the dinosaur in "Dilbert"? I think his name is Bob. He just hangs out.


    I saw a dinosaur just a few minutes ago. It was in my backyard, making little cheeping noises. My cat was really fascinated.


    Scientifically, it's one of the family Columbidae. It's commonly known as a "pigeon".

    "But I don't think it's actually explained how the Voth survived the dinosaur extinction, or if they just left Earth before the extinction happened."


    Actually it is explained in the episodes. They left before the event and traveled across the galaxy to the delta quadrant.

    @dOk: Oh okay. I haven't seen that episode since it aired, and I think I might have been drunk. And I couldn't find a summary that included that info. I'll fix that now!

    @se7a7n7: According to Wikipedia, the Dinosaucers come from another planet in counter-Earth orbit, called Reptilia. Or something.

    @gorehound: As did I. As I see it, Voyager has some really good episodes and some really bad episodes. This was one of the good ones, but don't get me started on Threshold...
