Yeah, I'll second that! They're a great read

I've never heard of it either, probably for the same reasons

Luke's pretty stoked when he hears Threepio and Artoo were in the Rebellion. Getting off planet by going to the academy and then defecting seems to be a major way the rebellion got pilots.

Some sort of nut-themed serial killer

The timetable was a little more urgent than just whenever they could work it in organically

Prometheus alone should bar Scott from anymore Alien related movies. It's an offensively bad movie, not the least for how it wasted so much talent

Star Trek about love lives and friendship? What a shocking development new to this franchise
Characters from Star Trek TOS, TNG, DS9, Voyager, Enterprise, & Picard keeping things strictly business as they explore the galaxy

As Birds pointed out, Q introducing humanity to the Borg was also Q introducing the Borg to humanity, and despite early success, that ended up being a career-limiting move for the Borg

It is a little surprising the Borg and Dominion both lasted as long as they did before getting mixed up with aliens of godlike power. It happens to Starfleet every couple of months

We did also see baby Borg at a couple of points, like in "Q Who," so maybe Hugh was just a Borg test tube baby, and had never existed at all outside the collective

What about "Double Talk?" Or are you drawing a line between TAS and the New Batman Adventures for this project?

Not actually having the rights to the period they're covering really should have been a deal breaker

If this was Linux snobbery it would be understandable, but Mac snobbery? That brings nothing but pity

The first 2 of those very much are sci fi concepts though?

Jay Dubs @jaydeedubs.bsky.social · 04/08/2026
Counterpoint: they already made a movie about a cool guy that kills vampires, Wesley Snipes was in it and the first two were pretty good. If it wasn't going to mean anything to the MCU, why reboot it? Also, Mark Kirby? Is that the Chancellor of Comics?

Dull sequel? Jeez, you could've led with that and saved us a lot of time wondering if we should listen to your movie opinions.

The Canadian quote of our time

Jay Dubs @jaydeedubs.bsky.social · 26/05/2026
It's *a* linkup, but it's far from the only linkup. Act 1 is light on connection, but 2 and 3 increase the connections greatly

Jay Dubs @jaydeedubs.bsky.social · 21/05/2026
The types of Albertan that want to separate are the rare Canadians that would actually like to become part of the US. This is because they are very stupid.

Jay Dubs @jaydeedubs.bsky.social · 19/05/2026
I think it being the right move for Sony is debatable. I can see why they think it's correct, but their exclusives are soft; they aren't Nintendo. I'm not going to buy what's becoming a very expensive console for *maybe* a couple of games, and I don't think I'm alone. I just won't buy those games.

This is not a winning assessment. They're pretty big, can still fly (mainly up to roost at night), and adult males have spurs like roosters from hell.

Given that Disney is seemingly happy with the results (already filming a third season, discussion of future spin-offs), it just provides more fuel to my belief that the Nielsen ratings for streaming aren't worth their cost of web hosting

Ebert did recant his terrible video game take though

Because "high culture" is a lie. There's well done and poorly done, but opera, literature, ballet? They're full of sex, violence, and cool fantasy elements.

The Force isn't a seesaw.

Jay Dubs @jaydeedubs.bsky.social · 24/03/2026
I don't think the movies back you up. "Light side" is never said in any of the movies. There's the Force, and the dark side of the force. There's the default force, what a Jedi is meant to listen to and be guided by, carrying out its will. The dark side is the using the Force selfishly

The best Star Trek series? I can appreciate your broader point, but that's so misguided it's painful

Jay Dubs @jaydeedubs.bsky.social · 15/03/2026
I feel the *maybe* coming back is being backgrounded here; not having a company onboard to actually pay to make and distribute a show is a pretty high bar still needed to clear

Jay Dubs @jaydeedubs.bsky.social · 13/03/2026
And that's fine, you're older now. But what too many people mistake this with is some kind moral or value superiority. "There are over a thousand Pokemon now" becomes "There are over a 1000 Pokemon now *and that's bad*." Don't let yourself fall into that second camp.

Yeah, this sucks. I was pretty excited about the Wolverine game, but I'm not going to buy a Playstation over it. And I've got to mention, looking at Steam player counts for single player games is beyond pointless, especially when there are sales figures to look at.

I feel like Star Trek *Minus Context* may not be the account for you

Deep space nine? I don't think so, Star Trek Minus Context. This is pure TNG right here. Look at those beige walls!

Kreia's nuanced take on morality pictured here:
Kreia, objectively worst star wars character of all time but in an interesting way, espouses some of her Randian bullshit.

If there were any justice it would flop badly. I don't expect that to be the case, but we can dream

I'd say there's some Canadian cons who wish they were Americans, but it isn't even mainstream for them. Stephen Harper, arch-conservative former PM, just gave a big anti-US speech at their recent conservative convention

There's a bunch of casinos in Ontario scattered around. They aren't all in one city though.

That makes it only half a terrible take

So the "red flag" has nothing to do with the quality of the movie and whether it'll be good or entertaining, but the number of YouTube views of the trailer. Sigh.
