Greetings and salutations, folks. I trust you’ve all been well since the last time our connections intermingled over the vastness of the web. I feel like so much has transpired during my […]
A Few Talking-Points Regarding “The Last Jedi”
multiversalbeta
Let's see, where to begin.....I suppose an explanation of my blog title is as good a starting point as any. In short, I've always been fascinated by the idea of multiversal existence (or “quantum universes” as it’s also referred to as). The idea that there are an infinite number of universes with an infinite number of "Erics" living an infinite number of varying lives. Being all too human, I have made numerous mistakes - part of the evolutionary cycle of living, I know. Sometimes it almost feels like I'm the universe's beta version of myself, a trial run before the final product. Somewhere out there, in the vastness of time and space, is a version of me that got it all right. This is what happens when you're a lifelong fan of science fiction and film: your mind goes to some supremely unusual places. But quite simply I'm just a scribbler who enjoys sharing a word or two about the things I'm most passionate about in life. And if you've enjoyed my weirdness thus far, it is for you that I continue to share.
Star Trek: Discovery, Episode 6, “Lethe”
Greetings and salutations, friends! So, before we proceed into our Trekkian discourse, I wanted to make sure that you were, as Jean-Luc’s ancestors would say, au fait with the news which reached […]
Star Trek: Discovery, Episode 5, “Choose Your Pain”
Is Captain Lorca a friend, or a foe? This is the query I’m still asking of myself five-episodes in. I would presume he’s a “friend” after defending, against Admiral Cornwell’s objections, his […]
Star Trek: Discovery, Episode 4, “The Butcher’s Knife Cares Not for the Lamb’s Cry”
Well, another cast member bites the dust. If it weren’t for the flying starships, talking aliens, and science-fictiony stuff, I’d swear I was watching “The Walking Dead”. At this rate, they’ll be […]
Star Trek: Discovery, Episode 3, “Context Is For Kings”
Sunday night we were formally introduced to the crew of the USS Discovery; and quite the introduction, it was. I’m still not sure why my Spidey Sense has been tingling without pause, […]
A Review of Star Trek: Discovery’s “The Vulcan Hello” and “Battle at the Binary Stars”
To say that Star Trek fans (Trekkies, as our preferred moniker goes) have waited an ungodly amount of time for a new series is, quite frankly, the understatement of the year; it’s […]
A Review of Next Gen’s “The Outcast”
Being a life-long Trekkie, I feel it is my duty as such to make a shameful confession: I’ve never seen every episode of TNG, and have yet to watch Deep Space Nine, […]
WonderCon Premiere of the Doctor Who Spin-Off “Class”
Greetings and salutations, my fellow geeks! I swear it feels like an eternity since I’ve been back here. Life sometimes tends to get in the way and rudely intrude upon one’s “geek […]
There’s Something In The Room
I can’t recall the exact date of the following experience, but if I were to offer a guess, I’d say it was sometime in the mid-to-late ’90s. If I were to be […]
A Few Bits I’d Like To See In Netflix’s “Luke Cage” Series
If you don’t already know, or had your attention surreptitiously hijacked by all manner of other geeky news (seems like the news cycle within fandom never tires), then here’s your friendly reminder: […]
