If you know me, you know I’m a fan of “covert” fight scenes. Scenes where two people are fighting but they’re both pretending that something else is going on. This one from Dreadnaught (1981) is one of the best.
By the way, the guy that choreographed this scene, later went on to choreograph The Matrix films, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Kill Bill.
Other Bobinsky: You think winning game is good thing? You’ll just go home and be bored and neglected, same as always. Stay here with us. We will listen to you, and laugh with you. If you stay here, you can have whatever you want. Always!
Coraline: You don’t get it, do you?
Other Bobinsky: I don’t understand.
Coraline: Of course you don’t understand. You’re just a copy she made of the real Mr. B.
Other Bobinsky: Not even that… anymore.
I am finally joining you in the “watch hundreds of videos about baking bread and fantasize about a dope kitchen with an oven” stage of life.
The best episode of Deep Space Nine is “Far Beyond the Stars,” in which Captain Sisko is suddenly and without explanation catapulted into the life of Benny Russell, a black science fiction writer in the 1950s. The great tragedy of Deep Space Nine is that you cannot immediately show this episode to any potential acolytes of the show, because in order to understand why it is the best episode you must have seen every episode leading up to it, so that you will love every character and understand every trope associated with them and weep in the final scene when Benny Russell insists that he has made a world, that knowledge alone can make a world, that the space station with a black commander really exists, it’s real, it’s real, it’s real!
