Well, 1 and 2 both dealt with deep themes of grief and generational trauma … I appreciated that they tried to write a story with a deep meaning to it, even if it didn’t 100% work it was better than a lot of the recent things I’ve watched
The thing I liked with 1 and 2 was that they both tried to tackle big ideas of past trauma, even if it didn’t come out well the big thinking was in there while a lot of recent things I’ve watched has felt skin deep at best
Well, I’m glad it wasn’t just me, lol … I figured some people must have enjoyed it otherwise they’d have left it at one season!
If this thread is anything to go by, me and my other half were the only people on the planet that actually enjoyed Picard S1 and 2, and didn’t like S3 as much.
In that spirit, if a film is made I look forward to enjoying it even if I’m the only one.
Would you like 1 maglev train for 10km, or 10 extra trains to make better use of existing infrastructure?
The Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brookes is a detailed fictional instruction manual. It’s sequel is World War Z which is closer to a normal book, but still has an odd structure of creating a world through interviews … and the The Zombie Survival Guide book exists within it.
You didn’t mention, but they have a good line in scapegoating LGBT people too. They follow Russia as close as possible on that front.
Hey, my wife and her sister moved away about 12 years ago … it was absolutely the right thing for both of them.
Anyone even halfway intelligent is better off moving away from Hungary. I feel sorry for those who can’t speak a foreign language and thus are stuck there.
Yeah, my local Caprabo (a modestly priced supermarket) used to have a whole aisle dedicated to olives and olive related stuff … now the locals are getting priced out of it and the aisle is just a little section
My intention was to convey that her inevitable betrayal would constitute a metaphorical “fucking”.
Either literally, or metaphorically.
And Quarks crossdressing girlfriend …
Don’t be sorry for your reply being long, it was clearly well thought out and considered. I agree on all the points you’ve made … perhaps the majority of people here didn’t like Picard 1 & 2 because it wasn’t repeating the type of story telling that Star Trek has typically given, but was a whole new thing. People, generally, don’t like change and I think in the current world there’s comfort to be had in the “monster of the week” style 90s shows.
