It’s very funny to me that the meme format using this image has become immeasurably more popular than the show it came from.

You know what?

It’s funny that you mentioned that movie, I pulled it up last night so I could laugh at the end again. The survivors end up being the black dude (LL Cool J) and white dude (Thomas Jane), the woman (Saffron Burrows) almost makes it and then doesn’t with like a minute or two left to go.

“They started is” is not how you treat your nation’s own war crimes if you want to keep claiming the moral highground of a war.

As a German - this isn’t a zero sum game. The citizens of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were civilians, asking for respect for them is the right of every nation and war crimes cannot be justified by a “they started it”.

As a German - had the bombs been ready a few month earlier and the US dropped them on Hamburg and Bremen just some weeks before the surrender instead of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, I’d assume our culture of Vergangenhetrisbewätigung might be a little taintend by deserved bitterness as well...

I’m here for Miss Minutes on a rampage.

The weirdest choice was having Geralt *recover* before the end of the season. In the books he was in convalescence for like a year since he basically got every bone in his body broken. This was your opportunity to justify why he looks and moves different going forward- the man was in bed for a year and needed facial…

I assumed he was wearing the prosthetics under his pants, that Stark had just used his nano-watsits at some point during the blip to make his friend something slim-fitting. I thought someone somewhere had mentioned that they could see lights through the cloth, but I didn’t see that during a quick step-through of…

It also shows the director wasn’t paying attention to continuity when he made the show. At the end of Civil War, we see Rhodey trying out the Stark leg braces to help him walk, and we see him using those leg braces for the rest of his appearances through Endgame. He’s still disabled; he literally needs this mobility…

M’Benga’s actions weren’t celebrated by the episode, though. It’s not saying “hey, revenge is fine.” He’s portrayed as a permanently broken man who will malfunction no matter what.

Also, while he seems exonerated at the end of the episode, we still have more season to go. While SNW is largely episodic they do still…

I had read spoilers about this beforehand, so the final confrontation was on my mind. I did find it very grey - M’Benga had repeatedly asked him to go away and leave him along. The part I struggle with is how the dagger came out of the box - I didn’t see it get picked up. Did any of us? And M’Benga and Chapel really…

I’ll have to disagree with the Ortega take -

Data tried to straight-up murder a guy in cold blood, was only stopped by a beam-out and then blatantly lied about it to Picard, and he absolutely was not malfunctioning or under some external control at the time.

And Ben Sisko blew up a Romulan Ambassador, lied and got away with it.

The episode gave me vibes of the original series episode “The Conscience of the King”, where the Shakespeare troop is led by a kindly old man who turns out to be a notorious killer named Kodos the Executioner and the people who were around to witness that had a lot of PTSD being around him. The M’Benga twist at the…

I genuinely don’t get it.

I think Brendan Jeffers should get a shout here as the doomed Ensign Inman. His two scenes with Babs Olusanmokun were highlights for me.

And hey, Cliff Howard sighting! 

A proper Klingon opera, indeed.
