I can understand wanting to distance himself from all of that but, honestly, his genuinely shocked reaction only made him look better. He doesn’t have anything to be upset about (other than the events that caused the documentary to exist at all)

They retire from farming, but they become more active in local politics. Bringing those classic values of the ‘50s with them. Fuck...

Camero huh?

Part of what’s annoying about it is that it stands in the face of another basic fact about the universe that plays a huge role in Trek: warp drive. What is the Prime Directive? It’s a rule that forbids the advanced civilizations of the Federation from making contact with species that haven’t developed warp technology…

Starring John Cena in all roles.

Johnny Chesterfield Q. Fucking Christ.

Someone once said that Boba Fett was the Tom Bombadil of Star Wars and I can see that. They’re both annoying characters with equally annoying fanbases who provide one important function in their respective stories and otherwise aren’t that interesting or enjoyable, regardless of what their fans say.

I hope Perlmutter feels completely humiliated by his failure here.

I don’t think it’s that he can’t be high for that amount of time. It’s that he can’t be seen respecting someone else, and has to make sure everyone knows “you’re not the boss of me.”

Trump hires people to run his business and doesn’t lift a finger to manage it himself, then if it doesn’t do well it’s 100% the fault of the people he hired, and he bears no responsibility even though he is the one who hired them.

In hindsight, I thought that it would have been much better had Rey been the result of a secret breeding project instead of Palpatine’s granddaughter. Like, the discovery of Anakin as some sort of innate Jedi led Palpatine to attempt to recreate his own cadre of natural Force savants. At least that would open up the…

I really just want it to be mostly back to basics.

Look, you make sacrifices for great art. Do you hear about Randy Quaid being hesitant to have his nipples visible in Hard Rain? No. If anything, Randy Quaid was probably eager to show more of his nipples, no matter what directors and producers wanted. Because Randy Quaid is a fucking professional.

I mean the land owners have an easy position. If I am locked in at X price for my land and it wasnt what I asked then I am not selling. Then it doesnt fucking matter.

I mean, the “reason” it’s not more widespread is that the people in the 23rd Century who knew about Discovery pinky swore not to tell anyone about it. And I guess in the intervening thousand years no other Federation scientists ever stumbled upon the mycelial network or its implications for interstellar travel. Or the…

Post-Picard sequel or bust.  A new series with Seven, the daughter of LaForge and the son of Picard and the occassional Q would have legs, well into the 25th century.

This is how image enhancement works:

Speaking of falling objects...just noticed that banner heading list number is doing the same. It’ll probably be just Gizmodo and Jalopnik soon.

Honestly that should’ve been the plot of the sequel trilogy all along, not a rehash of the OT.
