The 26th Century

ohboy wrote:This was a nice tie-in to the last episode. Since about 2/5 of the last one was focused on the League of Assassins, it was only obvious that they would come to this one. I could say that I really enjoyed this, mostly because there was a lot of fighting and action in this one than in some of the others. It moved at a very good pace, and was overall rather enjoyable. Plus, the ending was well-done. It could be a definite ending, or it could open up for something else later in the road.

Anyways, thanks for looking into the text question. I don't think I would use it very often, since I don't usually spend a lot of time on one specific scene anyways, but it would nice just in case.

I didn't know that document files saved from the computer couldn't be used at all. I don't really care about the South Park bit (well, maybe a little ), but mostly for actual written documents, like in the fan fiction, for example. Not a big problem, with written documents, though, I can always just copy the words and paste them into the reply box.

ohboy wrote:This episode was very good. Buck and De-Pas risked a lot to go and discover their heritage, and I think that it teaches a powerful message. Overall very well done. Sorry for how short this is, but I don't really have anything else to say.

ohboy wrote:I don't remember which episode I said this about before, remember me saying that this would made more sense to me if it were on television? I think that this episode applies here as well. I had a little trouble understanding the ending of Act Three. Why did that guy steal the Zanisol, and why did he want to detonate that hospital? Were the Bercy really bad guys, or was the mystery man's intention to destroy the hospital, something that the Bercy couldn't have prevented. In this case, watching this would have connected better; to see the face expressions and tones of voices could clarified things.

I'm not saying that Erin wrote a bad episode, but visual aid would have helped me here. This was, I'm sure, harder to write than to show on television.

By the way, this may sound random, but I thinking about this in regard to that non-cannon character we talked about a few nights ago. Was the League of Assassins part of the original series, or did you create that?

ohboy wrote:I thought that this was certainly one of the best up to this time. I thought that while it had a lot of humor throughout, the ending was perhaps one of the best parts, since Jason, well, you know... (I don't want to give anything away here). I thought that this was a pleasure to read. The dialog that included the werewolves and their statements that they should be more feared as humans was certainly a memorable quote in the series. It's a shame that the planet zooms off; this would have been a great place to host another episode.

Oh, and on a side-note, I could almost imagine a training regimen where Buck Rogers was sword-training to the same song that Sylvester Stallone (did I spell that right?) trained to in all those Rocky movies.

ohboy wrote:Now this was a very good Buck Rogers in the 26th Century reading day! Both in quality and quantity.

I could certainly get engaged in this story. After all, the way that Buck had to run around throughout the planet was certainly exciting. The betrayals that went on, along with what they did to Wilma made for a very good story. The part at the end after the ending credits was certainly entertaining, funny, and well-deserved. Another great episode Erin!

I bet that hunter is still lying on the ground with that dart in his body as Wilma and Buck fly home.

Anyways, I liked the twist that the aliens were using the generator for, which just goes to prove a point. I notice that many of these episodes seem to have a moral or morals at the end. There's nothing wrong with that, I just thought I should point them out because I mention them on a lot of episodes. Anyways, great deception all around, and I can't wait to see what happens to poor Buck next.
