[Trek] Mirror, Mirror
Jan. 18th, 2010 06:22 pmMirror, Mirror won the poll handily, and is now appointed Lord High King of All Episodes TFV Should Watch after the Gay Sex One, the Robot Kirk One, and the One Where Everyone Is Creepy.
And the poll was right! Or the voters were, anyway. Mirror, Mirror is amazingly good. And it was educational for me; I never knew, before this, why people said goatees were a sign of evil (turns out it's because Leonard Nimoy looks like a serial killer in them). Is this the original TV canon AU? Maybe! Anyway, it's awesome.
A Note about the DVDs
THE DVDS DO NOT HAVE ENGLISH SUBTITLES. We bought them specifically because we wanted subtitles, and they do, as advertised, have them - in Spanish and French. OH MY GOD THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. If I wanted to watch with a transcript open in front of me, I would not be paying full price, if you get my drift.
Also, the first season has faulty disks, although
cherry_ice has kindly loaned us hers so I don't have to suffer in a Kirkless and Spockless wasteland while they are being returned. Anyway. People who are debating whether to buy this set: don't.
( Part One: Shiny, Shiny Evil )
( Part Two: Uhura Is Secretly a Ninja )
( Part Three: Kirk/Spock Pervades the Multiverse )
( Part Four: Evil Wears Its Hair Down )
( Part Five: Uhura Is No Longer Keeping Her Ninjahood a Secret )
( Part Six: The Happy Ending with Bonus ARG - a Trek Tradition! )
