i was referring mostly to janeway, but there was 7 of 9 and b'elanna torres too

star trek fans hate janeway so much they concoct stories about both the writing and actress to excuse their hatred of the character

janeway was okay if you imagine some stuff that was never shown about her basically curling up in a ball in her ready room and crying because of all the stress and then she mainlines some coffee before stepping out onto the bridge with perfect composure announcing her orders to do stuff that is really contradictory to her ideals as a federation captain and she only does it because the stress of the situation is breaking her as much as its breaking everyone else in the crew but for SOME REASON they decided to completely brush aside nearly every single issue with morale and supplies on a show about a ship stranded on the wrong side of the galaxy with no backup and completely out of its element

b'elanna was okay, i really liked the episode where she tried to rewrite her baby

seven was awesome in a lot of ways

the doctor was still the best character imo

i watched the Trons. they're both kind of dumb, but the first one is technically interesting and legacy is pretty. best part of tron: legacy is the sound the arcade makes when the dude turns on the power.

PLEASE CLAP
the only bad part about legacy is that they show cgi jeff bridges in the opening scene

having clu look like a cgi monstrosity actually ties in well with the other themes of the film

yeah its great. I love that movie even if the plot is pretty dumb cause it just looks awesome and is hella fun to watch.

interestingly the tron cartoon they did afterwards was pretty great and had an incredible voice cast.

tron 1 was a neat showcase of 80s cgi

tron 2 was a sweet music video and also olivia wilde is hot

tron 3, better known as wreck-it ralph, was the best of them

yo has anyone else been watching ascension

i wasn't really feeling it at the start but then it had just enough "wait, that's weird" to keep me going until the end of part 1, which totally blindsided me

so now i will watch more of it

i was wondering the whole time how they had gravity oriented along the long axis of the ship while not under thrust... guess that explains that!
