Ok now you are officially the worst person on this forum.

Pretty sure I’m worse, since the show’s sucked for pretty much my entire lifetime and I’ve not yet gotten around to watching the older stuff.

You can’t be blamed for being born in the wrong era. All you can do is make up for it by binging, binging, BINGING on stuff you failed to experience in your formative years.

Ugh. Stargate Universe. Except for those cool aliens with the translucent skin and glowing eyes, I found not one redeeming factor to that series.

Yeah, episode 3 of Discovery, directed by Akiva Batman & Robin Goldsman, was not good. This dour, dark military sci-fi is like Battlestar Galactica, not Star Trek.

I hated, hated, HATED all that “Starfleet’s just one, big, happy family” utopianist crap TNG fostered upon us, but I don’t like this grimdark junk any better.

TOS & DS9 managed to strike a balance between extremes. Why is it so hard for modern writers to do the same?

I want to ban all guns! Screw hunters and sport shooters, they can get over it.

Real men hunt with only their bare hands and teeth, anyway.

I start too many parallel universes and never end up knowing what to do with them.

My desire to watch Discovery is now about the same as my desire to watch Voyager and Enterprise – nil.

Must be a Trump supporter.

So, from what I’m able to glean, Haseo got banned for posting a meme offensive to Arabs/Muslims and then being a dick about it?

New wave and grunge are both considered derivatives of punk rock. That amuses me.

I think Trump’s hell will be existence as a poor Muslim woman surrounded by misogynists and Islamophobes in his next life.

^Not sure if failed joke or failed attempt to respond to correct post.

I wonder what Danfun thinks about this.

I for one wouldn’t subject myself to such atrocious animation.

I’ve never seen anybody eat pancakes without syrup.

I did just that today. Normally I’d resort to syrup, but there was no syrup or syrup substitutes to be had.

Is it safe to say now that Trump is the most unpopular US president of all time?

Pancakes without syrup aren’t all that sweet.

Here you go.

It’s also Dooku’s one and only decent scene, if only because – for a brief instant in time – he’s portrayed as a nuanced antivillain with believable motivations and some depth. If Lucas hadn’t been so incompetent, Dooku could’ve been one of the PT’s saving graces instead of another dimensionless blunder.

Each day Return of the Jedi becomes worse and worse of a movie in my mind. Even just a few months ago, my opinion of the movie was much more generous. And it makes me quite sad since I used to love it as a kid.

The sister reveal is definitely one of those things that stands out as a glaring issue but now even what used to be the good things about Return of the Jedi for me have turned into weaknesses. I used to think the stuff with Luke, the Emperor, and Vader was the saving grace of this movie but now all of it just feels cheap, contrived, and lazy. With the emperor saying things like “You, like your father, are now mine.”, or Vader saying “It is useless to resist”. They turned the dark side into some sort of dark force that tempts you and takes control of you. I kind of miss the days when the dark side was simply another philosophy by which force users would follow. When Luke made his decision in Empire Strikes Back to not join Vader, it actually seemed like a hard decision when I was a kid. Vader was his father, they could technically beat the Emperor together, and then rule the galaxy together. It actually seemed like a viable option and Luke was still able to make the right choice. In Return of the Jedi, the Emperor couldn’t have done a worse job of trying to convince Luke to join him. Why is it that because Luke loses his cool for a few moments, would maybe turn him to the dark side. For gods sake, even when he refuses to kill Vader and throws his light saber away it is starting to feel cheap and contrived.

It’s all just probably my mind becoming more and more cynical in thinking but oh well. RIP Return of the Jedi.

Are you sure you’re not a sock of mine?

I once wanted an animation cel of Pinky and Brain as Threepio and Artoo, but the old WB studio store never got their hands on one. I did score a cel of Duck Vader from a Tiny Toons spoof.
This is the one I have, give or take a frame.

Still wish I had some duck troopers to keep him company!

*green with envy*
