The Big Bad is the realization that when this is over I'll have wasted ten hours of my limited, corporeal existence becoming increasingly annoyed by something I can easily and immediately remove from my life.

This is a bit of a tangent but I watched the DnD film today and even though that film is literally all over the place (it feels like they change scenery every 3-4 minutes for two and a half hours straight) it is a lot of fun and genuinely good and I think is a really good case study in how just establishing some basic stakes and characterisation results in an engaging story. There are twists and things get revealed over the course of the story, but within a couple of minutes of meeting each character we know what they are about and what they want and they act consistently along those lines for the rest of the film. It's great and it's the antithesis of everything to do with Picard's attempt at mystery box storytelling. Alchenar fucked around with this message at 14:55 on Apr 4, 2023 |

I've heard people saying it feels like an actual D&D campaign, but with Hollywood polish. If it's as good as Vox Machina turned into, I'll give it a look.

It's not as serious as Vox Machina but otherwise I'd say they both have the same sorta feel. It has what Picard is missing - the people who are doing it like the material and treat it seriously. Which is a blessing. And hearing hugh grant talk about places I've read about as a kid was pretty amazing

It's also got a ton of Glup Shittos to enjoy. My favorite was Jarnathan. (Glup Shitto is the term the star wars fanbase came up with for "weird very minor character people grow obsessed with" like Lobot or Pandu Boba) Star Trek needs more Glup Shittos

It's Lal, and that's why she didn't show up when Datalore cycled through personalities, she already transferred to another body. But she's also got a bit of Lore's personality and her name is now Lol. Or it's actual holo-Moriarty.

It's going to be the funniest option, which is either a random new evil guy with no connection to Picard for the Enterprise who just wants to do bad things because Evil, or Armus

Eventually Quark just replaced the bar and all his employees with the standard 10-Forward Terran bar holo-replica. A vengeful Rom now enacts the final phase of his vengeance on Starfleet for their evil invention. Noone trusts transporters because 'random malfunctions' are how Rom deals with disloyal subordinates.

Has anyone suggested Jean Luc/Ethan/Barash, that alien kid from Future Imperfect? Picard dumped him off at the nearest Starbase and he never heard from his buddy Riker again, and now he's mad.

Why is it called Frontier Day when they can just Warp to anywhere in a single day? Also, it's obviously Berlinghoff Rasmussen.
