For absolutely no rational reason, I really want this.

It’s the best thing they’ve done since the ‘80s (and actually they’ve done quite a lot of good stuff since the ‘80s).  

You’re forgetting two really really good ones:

*stares in Ghost*

Watch Strange New Worlds.  You’ll be astounded that the same team that made the incoherent garbage fire of Picard Season 2 can also make this show.  It’s like...dude, if you could make SNW, which is the best Trek in 30 years, no lie, then what the hell went wrong with Picard??

Well, considering they have all of Trek, they certainly have more than one good Trek show. If you’re limiting yourself to Kurtzman Trek, then there are two good ones: LD and SNW.  SNW in particular is a stone-cold fantastic delight every damn week, a real love letter to TOS and Trekkies everywhere.  

My dad owned a couple of cool ones: a Triumph Spitfire (way before I was born, sadly) and a Renault LeCar, which I did get to ride in. The LeCar (yes, I’m aware that I just typed “the the car” or perhaps more accurately “the the bus”) was such a weirdly cute little shitbox. He even had it shipped to France when we

Dude.  Do you get off on being an asshole for no reason?  Chill.

Technically, the car that should have been my first car was my dad’s 1987 Corolla. Unfortunately, that was totaled when an asshat ran a stop sign into me. So I didn’t have the car I should have had during college.

What I don’t get is, if Kurtzman et al can make this show, how the hell did they also make the incoherent garbage fire of Picard’s 2nd season? Picard should have been a damn masterpiece. Kurtzman’s team have demonstrated with SNW that they really do know and love Trek lore and Trek canon - it’s as if they’re making

Counterpoint: Shut up.  I had fun watching ROS.  It’s exactly the kind of movie J. J. Abrams makes: A patchwork of fan service and cookie cutter plotting put together into a beautiful and extremely fun package.  Is it good cinema?  No.  Is it Star Wars? Yes.  *sticks tongue out at you*

Counterpoint: shut up.

I stand corrected.

I don’t disagree with this list, but didn’t you miss Raimi’s remake of The Grudge?  

First of all, you were 16 in 2013 and can now afford a car worth $15k. Congrats. I wish I had that much of my shit together in my mid-20s. I was driving a $6,000 Mazda Protege at that time.

I’ll kiss Ryan Reynolds for nothing.


I watched Top Gear and GT but I recognize it as utter trash.  Clarkson is a racist git, Hammond is a whiny little shit, and I just want to punch James May into the sun.  But together, they’re kind of fun to watch.  

This is cool - something I’ll seriously consider when I trade in my Vespa GTS 300 in a couple of years.  

A Pontiac Solstice GXP with a stick shift and no working parking brake - in Portland, Oregon. So, a two-seater convertible in a place where it rains...a lot...and where there are lots of hills...and the parking brake didn’t work.

I still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea.
