Seriously.

It’s not an issue that impacts me directly because I don’t generally play for that long in one go and I just plop the controller onto a charger when I’m done with a session, but it sounds like a logical upgrade and they’re not charging more for it so it’s a win all around.

That’s just it, though. It’s not like that’s new. There was a huge outcry when fans caught wind that Paramount was going to make a new Trek show set in the future with a totally new crew, with people literally protesting in the street because it was a new ship and a new crew and they couldn’t conceive of Star Trek…

That’s the maddening part for me. The various creative forces over the years for both Trek and SW have created a big, rich, vibrant universe to tell stories in, but we keep treading the same ground. Sometimes it’s great (SNW), sometimes it’s terrible (Into Darkness), but it’s just so narrow-minded given the size of…

I could not agree more. Strange New Worlds is wonderful but I hope they don’t take the wrong lessons from it - that what people are clamoring for is more stories about the same characters over and over.

Because they’re small-minded and completely bereft of creativity. Something like this is perfect because:

I’d be down for a The Omen and The Bad Seed crossover.

“Look, Taraji, it would’ve been fine if there had only been two Bar Patrons, but we’d have to provide a driver for Bar Patron #3 as well if we got one for you and the budget just can’t support that.”

Hey, that review by John Barron is totally legit!

Even if Rocksteady won’t say its new game is live-service, WB is happy to confirm it has plans to make more of these games, regardless of how fans feel.

That’s how I heard of him, and only then because we were given tickets to one of her standup shows by friends with season tickets to the venue who were oh-so-conveniently out of town that weekend. She went on and on and on and on about how all men should be like Jo Koy.

I loved that game so much. It was endlessly playable and I should really grab an emulator and a copy so I can play it again; I also enjoyed the challenge of using a Hominid and working through weapons like the Needler.

That’s my feeling as well. It’s one of those things where they (IMO) executed on dramatic plotlines and arcs in the first two seasons very effectively and took that as a cue to really lean into and explore that with the additional creative freedom they said they got from Hulu.

You completely missed my point. There’s no reason for M’Benga - a character who appeared in two episodes of the third season of TOS - to be that CMO. It doesn’t have to be Dr. Boyce (from the first pilot) or Dr. Piper (from the second), but even either of those would’ve made more narrative sense.

My dude, you have no idea how much I’ve wanted to see Harriman again. As much as I hated Generations the adventures of the Enterprise-B under Harriman fascinated me.

“We’re going to go ahead and assume, based on the real Harmon’s age, that the series will be set in the ’70s or ’80s”

I could not agree more. In a perfect world, we’d roll into Legacy with the buzz and momentum for that concept still fresh as the next series and let Discovery rest for a few years.

I could definitely see that. It seems like a good way to split the difference, leveraging the excitement for “Legacy” while hedging their bets financially. And if it were to come off well, it could still lead into a series.

That’s kind of what I’m getting at in my comment above. The vibe I get from friends who love Elden Ring is that the frustration is very much part of the appeal because of how it increases their satisfaction when they finally do beat it. And that’s totally valid, it’s just not something I’m personally interested in…
