If they “got it,” they’d have to do something about it.  It’s easier just to claim it doesn’t exist.

leaving Captain Burnham, Rayner, and Stamets as the only crew members who can possibly save the ship in time.

James, at some point you’re going to have to come to terms with the fact that this is an adaptation, and that the contexts those comics came out of and the context of the show are fundamentally different things.

That is some good rationalization. Right up there with “See? With half the bag of chips empty this is actually GOOD for you since it is less crowded.”

Alex Kurtzman isn’t a good judge of what makes Star Trek great. If I had to assess his interests based on the content he has worked on, it’s basically Romulans, Borg, Section 31, and very little interest in the core of the Star Trek experience.

“Byte”.   Exactly what it says on the tin.  Sometimes I can’t believe how easy it is to get something greenlit.  

This may be true but in this case they handed it perfectly and shut down the toxic assholes.

You are mistaken. Mobsters have been demonstrating for decades that casinos are licenses for them to print (and launder) money. Cheeto couldn’t even manage that. 

The problem is that they don’t go away. GW could outright tell them to fuck off and they’d still do mental gymnastics to say that the insult was meant for someone else and escape to darker corners of the community. It’s just exhausting.

Maybe you should have R’d? Because you basically have the situation upside-down. The real issue is chud fans, not the company.

Because Marvel’s brief obsession with Inhumans earlier this decade was about movie rights, not because the Inhumans are particularly exciting.

Now that they have the ability to put her in the A-level group of genetic superheroes, the mutants, they’re cleaning up the earlier corporate nonsense.

I assume her point is that it slightly helps remind people there are special raised standards to address guns/animals/why-not-children, and that the cast/crew would be reminded just because they’re all doing more or less the same end product and hours, that they need to act accordingly.

That said... you might be able to catch her one HAND show in the parking lot.

At this point, I’m hoping that the title of Ryan Coogler’s untitled vampire project is Untitled Vampire Project.

Lauren Boebert will not return to the theater for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.

Right?  Like, I know they’re already filming well ahead and such, but they could dial back the press stuff and have a LITTLE mystery? I don’t need reports on the next season when THIS season hasn’t even started.

TNG started petering out in season 6 and you can tell by season 7 they were just making episodes to fill out the 26 episode order so they can start the movie.

So odd.
