It's narcissistic and douchey. But it's unfortunately not delusion. It's hard to deny she had an impact. She wreaked havoc in the Senate. And now she has a golden ticket to go on to sit on boards, be ceo of something, or just be a public speaker and get paid shit tonnes of money. The system is set up for Senators
I'm also not sure how anyone expects Israel to accept the losses and move on. If the US or any other country had been attacked like this they'd already have boots on the ground.
This assumes Q was there to actually judge humanity and not begin a dialogue with Picard and the Federation. In his own omnipotent way. It's not a judgement, it's more of a test or like a training.
I was secretly hoping they'd do a Trek style timeline reboot so the Sequels will never happen.
Either way, Star Wars IP needs a fresh slate rather than dreging up old characters and shoving them onto a western style setting. There is literally a whole universe to explore.
I wanted to like this show way more than I did. But it just didn't scratch the itch. The main characters seemed a bit lost, like we needed more streamlining to their story to have a satisfying arc. I like the main actresses in other stuff but I don't think they were right to play these people.
Honestly it seems like the biggest problem is that any story they make up for this time period is kneecapped by having it all end with the Sequels.a story about rebuilding the republic in the shadow of the Empire would be epic and a perfect use of these characters. But knowing it all goes boom and cloned snokes and emperors are soaking in a vat like sea monkies makes it all a bit meh.
Overall meh, I'll tune in next year and see what happens. I just think it could be better.
I don't think she had full control of her faculties near the end. Her handlers and power of attorney should have forced her to retire but they didn't.
Good, it will save their lives and help produce a fair verdict.
Trump sees himself as a 90's monster. Threatening witnesses is totally his trademark. Not to mention sicing his more devout followers on them
He held out for a long time while the news dripped out. Really thought he was top cock. Polls must have shown him getting limp
You are correct, unlike my autocorrect which decided it didn't like the word 'post'. Edited
Not just Mercury's story. All those times the movie had Mercury spiraling into sex and drugs and the movie versions of May and the rest of the group were cuddling with their wives and girlfriends. You know, the way they were famous for doing.
Started this because I didn't see it in theatres and can't find the og discussion thread.
I finally watched Barbie after a full year of heavy PR campaigns to see the best movie of the year that was saving theatres and driving studios to go back to original IP for film ideas. And after all that my reaction is a solid....meh.
It was fine. I felt other movies have done the same themes but better and more cohesively. And I'm not sure what the final message of the movie even was. It felt like there was some boardroom interference in the final product because you could see the story aiming at something, then changing course before they got to a satisfying conclusion.
Acting and set design was good, it just overall felt like a miss that was made bigger by the giant campaign they launched to sell the movie as great.
One more reason I'm glad to be Canadian is that this news is going to make little to no difference in the political battles of today. Americas messed up supreme Court is a cautionary tale
