• Comment on Star Trek: very Short Treks | "Worst Contact":

  There are comics?

• Comment on Sisko/Benny theory:

  Strange New Worlds confirmed that Benny Russell was a real author in the history of the Trek universe, though. So he was definitely a real person, though perhaps the version of him connected to Sisko was from some other reality.

• Comment on Being Mean to Scabs Is Working:

  Is it actually budging the studio exec billionaires though? Or is it just prolonging infighting among the little folk, which distracts from the actual villains causing this situation in the first place.

• Comment on Preview “Something Borrowed, Something Green” With First Images From ‘Star Trek: Lower Decks’ Episode 404:

  The title points to a wedding episode - I’m guessing one of Tendi’s siblings? - so I hope they also skewer other Trek wedding moments.

• Comment on Barbie (2023) OST streaming release discussion post:

  That might have bumped it up to a solid five stars for me, actually.

• Comment on Barbie (2023) OST streaming release discussion post:

  The ones that sell digital access to movies for $24.99.

• Comment on Welcome to Horror Movies @ lemmy.film:

  Anyone else listen to Fright Pub, the horror movies podcast? I’ve never been a huge horror guy, but listening to those three get hysterical and worked up every week has turned me into a fan of the genre.

• Comment on Drew Barrymore announces talk show will not return until strike ends:

  Good on her. It’s rare to see someone take the criticism and learn from it rather than doubling down. She always seemed like a class act, if sometimes leaning a bit too hard into her ditz act.

• Comment on we are devolving:

  Monetary self-interest without a corresponding societal responsibility is inherently destructive in the long term.

• Comment on Ridley Scott Has a ‘Fantastic’ Cut of ‘Napoleon’ That Runs Four-and-a-Half Hours and Features Way More Joséphine:

  That’s fair. But presumably the same number of people would watch part 1 as would watch the whole thing. And maybe even more, because of the lower time commitment.

• Comment on Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Lower Decks | 4x01 "Twovix" & 4x02 "I Have No Bones Yet I Must Flee":

  That describes Boimler’s normal state even without the extra photons.

• Comment on McDonald's franchisee group says new $20 minimum wage California fast-food bill will cause 'devastating financial blow':

  Oh darn. Anyway

• Comment on Julia Child Burns Food:

  Is there no sound on this for anyone else? I checked other videos and they’re fine. Wonder if this got copyright-algorithmed.

• Comment on Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Lower Decks | 4x01 "Twovix" & 4x02 "I Have No Bones Yet I Must Flee":

  Shax could have just told him about the built-in filters on the windows, but he secretly wanted someone to hear his holodeck “adventures” with T’Ana. It was a cry for help.

• Comment on How to watch Wheel of Time season 2 online: Release date and time:

  Why would I want to though?

• Comment on ‘Star Trek: Lower Decks’ Season 3 Available For Free On YouTube, Prime Video And Pluto TV In USA:

  Seriously, why is the app just so bad?

• Comment on ‘Star Trek: Lower Decks’ Season 3 Available For Free On YouTube, Prime Video And Pluto TV In USA:

  Lol no we can’t.

• Comment on ‘Star Trek: Lower Decks’ Season 3 Available For Free On YouTube, Prime Video And Pluto TV In USA:

  Man, I’m sorry you feel this way. You’re really missing out.

• Comment on [deleted]:

  Dime Store Adventures is great.

• Comment on Study: Streamers Now Wasting Record Amounts of Time Finding Something to Watch:

  My wife always goes back to the same things over and over. Sometimes it’s Band of Brothers, and I’m like “Awesome, but there’s only so many times I can watch Toye and Guarnere get their legs blown off.”

  But then she’ll put on New Girl for the 15th time through (I don’t even think I’m exaggerating) and I want to put a gun in my mouth. I want to punch every one of those characters in the face. Except for Winston, he’s cool.

• Comment on Study: Streamers Now Wasting Record Amounts of Time Finding Something to Watch:

  I do this, only I allow myself to veto the random result ONLY if it’s to substitute something I’d rather watch. Occasionally, rolling the dice on a list is a pretty good way to force my mind to pick a favorite and settle on actually watching it.

• Comment on Ridley Scott Has a ‘Fantastic’ Cut of ‘Napoleon’ That Runs Four-and-a-Half Hours and Features Way More Joséphine:

  Why not make it two separate parts, released fairly close together, like a month apart? You’d build up hype and make people want to see the first one before part two comes out, then offer some double feature screenings alongside the normal release when the second one comes out.

  Effectively it would mean a single film taking up twice as many screens and pulling in twice as many tickets.

• Comment on Ridley Scott Has a ‘Fantastic’ Cut of ‘Napoleon’ That Runs Four-and-a-Half Hours and Features Way More Joséphine:

  For a theater, yes. But for home video, where people can and often do watch movies in chunks anyway, length doesn’t matter as much.

  I’d love it if he just dropped it as two films, released a month apart. That would drive people to see the first part so that they can be caught up for part two.

• Comment on Ridley Scott Has a ‘Fantastic’ Cut of ‘Napoleon’ That Runs Four-and-a-Half Hours and Features Way More Joséphine:

  Of course Ridley Scott has multiple different cuts.

• Comment on Bizarre Movie Posters From Africa That Are So Bad, They’re Good:

  I live how Jet Lee is reacting to seeing the poster.

• Comment on Star Trek: Prodigy’ Banner Flown Over Netflix Offices, Other Streamers in Effort to Save Show:

  Loved this show and my kids did too. Ripping it off the platform is a bad precedent, and one I hope Paramount comes to regret.

• Comment on Let's play a game. How would you reboot The Jetsons if you were tasked with doing so.:

  The brilliance of TNG’s utopia is that it is built on the premise that we had to go through a literal hell and near rural self-destruction to get to it. I don’t recall if TOS established WW3 first or not, but TNG really leans heavily into the notion that we came within inches of destroying everything.

  But the moment we learned we weren’t alone in the universe, we turned it around and started building the future we could have had all along.

• Comment on Let's play a game. How would you reboot The Jetsons if you were tasked with doing so.:

  It’s been done already, only as a drama. See the series Caprica.

• Comment on Mayim Bialik Declines to Host ‘Celebrity Jeopardy!’ Amid Strikes, Replaced by Ken Jennings:

  Ok. Say he is. Who cares? He’s not the one stonewalling the unions or refusing to make reasonable concessions to keep millions of people employed and fairly treated.

  Whenever you feed into this trivial infighting, it only strengthens the studios
