I thought the "Batmobile" Armor was the cheesiest Idea I've ever seen. It's seems like some sort of cop-out B&B created b/c they ran out of stupid technobabble 25th century tech concepts. I thought it was sooo bad anyone agree?

I thought it was another one of B&B's silly little gimmicks, they're like a pair of children cramming in anything they think is cool just because they've seen it somewhere and said "ME TOO!".

That whole episode and its ridiculous Deus Ex Machina was nearly as contrived as the part in Enterprise's season premier when Hoshi rips off her shirt.

If you think about it, all they did was rip off Viper.
And if you think about it further, that means Federation ships don't have armour.

The very concept of Endgame sickens me -- Voyager finally gets back with years of hard work and preserverence, then Janeway decides that's not good enough and invokes the spectre of time travel to make it all better. The Batmobile armour was only a small part of the crap that made up that episode, which was bad even by Voyager standards. It was representative of the entire series, sadly.

Endgame in general seemed Like a cop out to me. (after I let it sink in) I was gradually more and more dissappointed as time progressed. But I created a fan-fic concept about Voyager getting Home, another way. Anyone interested??

Whenever they have a really big episode hyped up they just cop out and don't do anything with it.IG-88E wrote:not as bad as Sacrifice of Angels, where the WH aliens suddenly showed up and saved the day

Question: You are opposed to the female cast members of Enterprise being topless? (Or in the case of the Vulcan, in silky half-tops as often as possible?)
