Tbf Sisko immediately relented to him, which is like Jesus going "no no you guys, Paul is the son of god, I just got that title foisted on me, listen to him" The real qualm is the fact that every bajoran immediately converts to the Stupid Poet branch, when realistically you'd see splintering

MAKE NO BABBYS posted:I literally just finished the last episode, I'd been watching here and there over the last three weeks or so. I've been reading the Game of Thrones Season 8 thread, specifically before/during/after episode 3. It's really interesting watching the fanbase fracture into different groups, those who are in kind of 'last straw' mode and now believe it's all poo poo, people who are still holding out for an 'epic' last few episodes, those in denial at what just happened, and those who are very angry at people who didn't enjoy it and being quite snarky about it "Oh, I'm sorry, was your show about zombies and dragons unrealistic? " Heh, people are the worst. Me included.

Neurolimal posted:Ezri was set up to fail; you get one season, your stuff WILL interrupt the climactic series finale everyone has been waiting for, you are replacing one of the most fun Star Trek romances with angst about not fitting in, and you are expected to match Michael Dorn without the years of chemistry. Our material for said interaction? Joke about getting hurt during awkward cave sex, delirious ramblings under torture, a half-written murder mystery at home. I liked when she told Julian to stop being weird at her because she wasn't Jadzia and she didn't like it. But then she ended up with him in the end so that was instantly invalidated. I think the most Star Trek "all people are equal, except women" thing was when Sisko told Jake he had to learn to tolerate the differences between his and Nog's cultures. The difference he was talking about was being openly horrendous to women.

I mean, for all the problems Picard has, in my opinion, it's bookended with pretty good scenes that have little to do with anything else in the show.

If your friend grew up and lives in a society that's horrible to women, and has internalized the value, "It's a good thing to be horrible to women", and you still want to be his friend, calling him out and lecturing him because he's horrible to women is not going to make him stop. It's just going to lead to a fight and endanger your friendship.

Way to impose your values on other cultures you imperialist.

My Lovely Horse posted:I know this is a novel idea in the TV and movie landscape of 2020 but you could come up with new ideas. Heck, Lower Decks already brought the Pakleds back as villains, I wouldn't put it past them to introduce a Pakled engineer in Starfleet at some point. If you tweet it at Mike McMahan it has a decent chance of becoming reality.

I've said it before but I think it's telling about the quality of the stories that Star Trek produces now that the people who still enjoy it seem to be digging it on the same level I am about the new versions of Transformers toys from my childhood that you can get these days; it's just "I recognize these things/people that I liked, hello friends!" Doesn't matter if there's any kind of coherent narrative involved at that point, let alone a story with something to say really. I don't judge, we're all hosed in the head that way and I'd be a hypocrite if I didn't point out that I have next year's Beast Wars revival stuff pre ordered already But like, Star Trek used to be just a touch beefier than something that was only ever meant to sell toys to children, you know? You can occasionally elevate one but when the other gets brought down it's like... yeah, gently caress. It's been going that way for a long time.

I've ragged on Discovery and Picard a lot ITT, but if people are genuinely enjoying them and this is the future of the franchise, so be it. I can deal with the idea that they don't make Star Trek for me any more.

Geordi is probably most likely to be a pedophile which is why he can't relate to normal women and his best friends are Wesley and a robot that doesn't understand emotions. He plays with model trains too.
