I still say it should be a GBS subforum and all the GBS threads about movies, shows and games should be sent there.

Picard the character from TNG is great, but Patrick has never really liked him or really *got* trek in general. He's always made little comments about how lame and boring picard was and how the really talky episodes were boring. He wanted to blow stuff up and score hot young women in fast cars. As his fame increased he got the clout to demand more of that sort of thing, culminating with the horrible TNG movies.

People have an understandable great amount of nostalgia and love for Picard, but I think they project that onto Stewart who very much is not Picard and has taken the character and franchise to lovely places.

So basically, his bit in "Extras" wasn't too far off from real life, then.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

I'm starting to get the feeling that for all of it's classic reputation as a show about morality and philosophical issues, optimistic idealism, space exploration, mystery, problem solving, thoughtful deliberation, collaboration, progress and so on, a lot of trek fans don't really give a poo poo about that stuff. reading comments, they seem to generally care more about the minutiae window dressing poo poo like what class of ship is being used and how it's designed, the details of starfleet/federation rankings, if it features their favorite race of aliens and what their particular abilities are, and the intricacies of esoteric trek lore. its like people talking about stats in their fantasy rpg or some poo poo, ie poo poo i don't give a drat about.

That's dumb and the only appeal star trek had was the utopia world they inhabited to me. Other shows do shithole future much better

drat. Decent video, though the dude seems to like STD, which seems like it's a pile of trash, still doesn't diminish what he's saying with the video.

Also. Decontamination gel, seriously? And the characters have to rub each other down with it in the nude after away missions?

All this talk about Star Trek made me think about all the dumb as gently caress "future sports" that were on that show and in other science fiction and fantasy properties. You have games like Parisi Squares or Racketball which either kill you or look like a lamer version of Squash. Or you have poo poo like Quidditch in Harry Potter or Pyramid on Battlestar Galactica. Deep Space Nine was good because they made fun of the dumb future sports by making Sisko a baseball fanatic that makes everyone else look at him like he's a weirdo. But you're telling me that football/soccer, a sport that has lasted for centuries if not millennia, isn't popular in the Federation?

At least Star Wars had the Wacky Races and Droid Rugby.

that thread (the last time I checked) is mostly just people talking about zack snyder movies in a calm orderly manner, detached from thinking he's some offensively terrible filmmaker. I enjoyed man of steel and haven't seen anything else of his, the thread has some interesting content on his movies and how they are criticized.

I like Zack Snyder a lot because he clearly enjoys the hell out making the kind of films he makes. I do not like his movies much, but the man himself seems pretty enthusiastic.

Worf played soccer as a kid. He headbutted a human kid and snapped his neck, so I guess sports in the future are just plain more deadly than they are today.
