Art has always been subversive. It’s sort of its job.

Of course. You should see his finishing move.

Pretty sure that’s the reason he needs to wear some sort of eye protection, but the decision to use glasses rather than his original visor is certainly intentional. It’s so that (unless he’s indoors) he looks almost normal. That’s what they mean by Cyclops being closeted; he’s able to pass as a non-mutant outwardly if…

And here I thought this was an article on the rental availability of Orange County 20 somethings.

It’s occurred to me to think that Lena Luthor’s betrayal at Kara Danvers keeping her Supergirl identity secret is a little insensitive, because it’s kind of like being in the closet — it’s not lying to keep a secret identity from a friend, since they aren’t automatically entitled to know unless you feel comfortable…

I always thought Voyager’s biggest sin was massive MASSIVE reliance on time-travel plots. Like nigh on Dr. Who levels. And time travel can be used to conceal poor storytelling abilities by confusing people with razzle-dazzle and woo when you can’t actually think of another way to write a real third act for a story.

I knew that, but it wasn’t till right now that I realized that BSG is just reskinned version of the Voyager he wanted to make.

Interestingly, Ronald D. Moore pitched it to be that way. The other producers said no and adhered to more light-hearted, pulp sci fi fare.

So Moore went off and made Battlestar Galactica.

I feel very much the same way about how you describe Janeway and the writers room as I do about the way Rey and Finn have been handled in the sequel trilogy. I had always chalked it up to cynical marketing decisions, but after reading your post, fear of the audience reaction makes so much more (obvious) sense.

My favorite Star Trek two parter will always be Year of Hell.

According to the producers, they wanted to show Voyager with damage that carried over between episodes and the studio refused to allow it. How they went from DS9 to a bastard version of TNG because of the studio, I don’t know.

Came here to say the same, those two have always been my favorite. It is sad because it’s the only time Voyager really put everything together and showed what it could have been.

Voyager is stupid terrible garbage and I love it with all my heart
