    Ha! Now the PERFECT wheather is in GERMANY! It´s so rare we have the weather everyone loves, so it´s ok that it´s still here, in my town, around me and my beloved ones!

     

    But still a few people keep complaining: Too much sun...hehe, can there be too much of it when you feel a cold breeze and a bit of cold and fresh rain during night? NO!

     

    End of story.

    OH. Well, I have seen that all Trekkies seem to hate the soft Archer. But I even like him for his prudence (dictionary!) and his courage.

     

    I don´t like the idea that he will be such reckless like Kirk always has been.

     

    But I LOVE the pics (one is missing)

     

    Go on with that!

    Well, when I was 13, TOS was my favourite (there was nothing else...) then TNG. I still love Brent Spiner, he´s a wonderful actor, like all TNG actors.

     

    But since Jonathan Archer is in command, I can´t stop watching ENT and I am impatiently waiting for new episodes!

     

    Archer rules! :(

     

    The perfect guy would be a man like Archer, as an Android, and with Vabeachguys Hat!

    Thanks for the compliment! And you german is perfect too...lol!

     

    Yes, in Germany we have a synchronized version, in the beginning the synchronisation was very bad, they didn´t translated correctly, but better that nothing.

     

    After the massive complaining from thousands of fans they do a better job now. But it is still german, and I can not listen to Scott Bakulas sweet voice, sigh. (Thanks again for the "Imagine" song)

     

    So I prefer viewing the original version, in english.

     

    Believe it or not: When I detected the TNG episodes in english (on sky one from the UK) years ago, I began beeing a Trekkie AND learned much more english than during years of school lessons!

    Well, since my last visit in the local cinema and even before, I was thinking about this kind of "view on demand"

    In Germany we HAVE to pay for the public TV, that is available for everyone, but in the minute you buy a TV, you are forced to pay, even if you don´t like their program!

    So a lot of people don´t like this system, but you can´t do anything against it!

    Sometime I watch special shows, like science or educational shows. For them, I am willing to pay.

    The rest of the programm is still made for old people, no one knows why....

    Thanks to one of these stations, we have Star Trek, they began with TOS in the early 70s. Maybe, if it would be a commercial station by that time (there where none in the 70s in Germany), we never would have been able to watch Kirk and Co. So thanks to our public TV, even if they are stupid!

    Even TNG was shown in the public TV, without advertise!

    Later, a commercial station bought the show and so we have to view it with advertise, but can view it a bit ealier. (Besides: Star Trek fans had a great influence on that TV policy (regarding Star Trek) Germany has one of the leading fandoms all over the world, after the US, for shure)

     

     

    But on my visit in the cinema, there was a huge advertise poster that says: The Future of cinema!

     

    It says that in the future there will be digital Movies! That means you can watch a movie instantly after it is finished, it hasn´t to be copied for the film projector. And another advantage is the quality: Each show is of the same quality, no scratches on the celluloid!

    That leads to digital TV.....

     

    The second aspect that leads to view on demand is that I haven´t seen a single episode of my new favourite series ENT on TV, I downloaded it Why? No, I don´t intend to harm the commercial background of Star Trek, I only can´t wait untill I can see it on TV, in Germany you would have to wait YEARS!!!!!! Our commercial TV station that shows ENT is in the middle of the first season- HELP!

     

    So I looked for the latest episodes in some filesharing programs and thanks to them, I can see all episodes that are stored on a computer in a shared folder! I am so happy about that opportunity, maybe I have downloaded an episode from one of you.... thanks for that!

     

    BUT: If everyone would do this...it would be the end of the show, I know that.

     

    So I would be willing to PAY for each episode IF I can view it at the same time than you guys can! AND I would BUY the DVDs too, for better Quality! The german merchandise is selling ENT episodes on Video since a while, so you could view them a few weeks earlier than in TV, but I will never buy Video cassettes since I own a DVD player.....

     

    All these arguments lead to my favourite TV schedule, so PLEASE can anyone tell this Paramont?

     

    My TV schedule:

     

    First - digital Movie in cinema (if we are talking about a movie)

    First - digital TV view on demand (if we are talking about an episode)

    Then - DVD (Movie/TV show)

    after that - Free TV (commercial)

     

    I hope that I am talking about the same thing when I say "view on demand". I am thinking of a downloadable episode without any advertise, that I pay for each time I view the show.

     

    I think that this will give the best possible profit to the studio, and will bring SO MUCH NEW customers for them, like ME!!!!! And all over the world! Imagine the possibilities!

     

     

    OK, that leads to a totally commercial selection and new, interesting, but unknown shows will have no chance, but they still can be in the commercial TV and later be put into the View on demand.

     

    Sorry, english is NOT my favourite language, but I try!

    OK, I did it!

     

    I have no idea who vabeachguy is, if he has a girlfriend or not, but I couldn´t resist to try that:

     

    Beagle.......vabeachguy: 83 %!

     

     

    But I am very sad about this:

    Beagle.........Archer: 49 %

     

     

    This one was better:

     

    Beagle.......Scott: 68%

     

     

    I have to think about that again:

     

    Beagle.....Bakula: 46%

     

    I tried me real name, Baerbel..... still these bad results...

     

    After trying my real name and my husbands name Olaf, it said 77 %...so I think this damned calculator is really clever, and there is a lot of truth in there..... loool

    How I like my Pizza here in Germany?

    Well, it´s close to Italy, and once I´ve met an italian guy who explained the philosophy of PIZZA to me:

     

    In Italy a pizza was meant as a "left over " meal.... you take what you have left from dinner, put it onto a yeast dough (this is what my dictionary says! :laugh: ) and bake it!

     

    So I prefer a pizza with everything my refridgerator proposes to me..... and when I order Pizza I would love to oder a Pizza with EVERYTHING they have, but unfortunately the Pizza is always too small.

     

    But I heard about your pizzas in the US, they must be BIG, real BIG! So maybe one day I will get my tomato-pepperoni-artichoke-pineapple-ham-barbeque sauce-salami-spinach-anchovy-egg-olive-cheese-mozarella-cheese-cheese Pizza!

    Nah, i think the sex is what makes it. I want to see more. Marriage will be an outdated institution by the time of Enterprise. It's dying out like the church now anyway!

    The church has been arround for thousands of years. Just becuase today's world has thrown ethics and morals to the wind in favor of a "good time", doesn't mean the church will fade away. Same goes for marriage. Marriage is not an "institution", it's a union between Man and Woman.

    I would LOVE to discuss this with Phlox!!! :laugh:

     

    @ vabeachguy : Yes, the Tv show I was thinking of was Moonlightning, with Bruce Willis...?

     

    It became boring with the two beginning a romance. The first "mating" was much fun for the fans (german TV showed it around Midnight...) but the fun ends after a few episodes.

     

    Well, enough speculating, normally I would like to propose to the writers a quite nice story of Captain Archer, traveling back in time, end up in a german sports bar where a very nice lady (see avatar on the left) is serving him a drink... each of them feels the same strange attraction disregarding time and space, they where MEANT for each other! And then.....ooops....I´m spamming again, sorry. :lol:

     

    But back to marriage in the future:

    Yes, religion IS a way of mastering your life, but not for everyone. Even today people have a lot of different opinions regarding this topic. I can imagine that in the future totally new concepts of living in groups can be developed. Think of Phlox 3 wifes... to increase genetic variation is one of natures tricks to keep things going......

    Hi!

     

    I´m new to the board and I will ever have difficulties with your language, even though I´m able to read and to express my thoughts you will have to forgive me if I can´t understand the complex considerations (dictionary) you are posting here! If I use my dictionary I will let you know..so you may correct me if I´m wrong.

     

     

     

    I would like to put a much more primitive opinion to this topic: Should anyone on the Enterprise "mate" with anyone else? (I heard the word "mating" a bit too often in the second season... :laugh: )

     

    Well, because I´m an Archer fan I think he has a lot of sexual radiation (dictionary) and I am shure I couldn´t stand to throw him on the bed if I would be only a few millimeters away from him in his ready room. And T´Pol is a very beautyful women, vulcan or not.

     

    But the story would develop like it has for a Million years: Man wants woman, woman wants man...they "mate" and where does it end? The excitement ends! (Some of you may know this... :lol: )

     

    I have seen a lot of TV series where a sexual attraction between the main characters was evolved. Fans of these series keep watching for years, speculating about all possible ways how the couple can act and if the writers give the fans what they want (sex!) .... the excitement ends..it always does.

     

    I would LOVE to see Archer and T´Pol becoming a couple (if this ever will happen, dear writers, please don´t forget some loooong romantic scenes!), but after my low instincts have been satisfied, what will I expect next? What will I hope for, and where will the excitement be?

     

    NO, even if this would be heaven on earth... eehhmm, space- I prefer speculatiing when and where, how and how often.. but I don´t want to become it real.

     

    I new some TV series who ended after the leading actors have become a couple, and I think this would happen to Enterprise if ever the needs of the FANS will be satisfied.

     

    The show stays interesting if we have to speculate and keep hoping for romantic love affairs (well, maybe not all of you boys, but the girls do!), so they will never give us ALL that we want, only a short glimpse....

     

    Thanks for listening, Baerbel "Beagle" Born

     

     

    PS: Uhh, this is more horrible than a 3 hours school work.....if my english teacher could see me know.... :clap:
