re: "Make it so."
When his version of "A Christmas Carol" came out, I was prepared for a tour de force, especially after he'd done an adaptation of the story as a one-man show. Instead, he walked through it. All I could think of was "Picard's on the holodeck again." I'll still take George C. Scott as Scrooge over all the others.
So, when I heard the promo (wasn't facing the TV) for "Mysterious Island", I thought the same thing. I hope he didn't make it so.
