It will be a lot more expensive, thats for sure.

I'll give it another try, but I'll skip that ridiculouus first season

I got to season 3 before bailing, but season one was really ponderous. I'm really over the Star Trek obsession with Klingons.

I cant wait. I've loved all the Star Trek series except Discovery. I just couldn't get into it, and I tried hard. Maybe I'll give it another go before this comes out.

I loved Lexx. It was one of those weird science fiction series that were popping up in the 90s as a response to the success of ST: TNG and Battlestar Gallactica. I haven't watched it in decades, I have to go find it.

Here in America, we definitely care, but at the moment we are caught in the biggest existenstial crisis since the Civil War. We can't deal with Climate Change until we purge the MAGA Nazi's from our government. Then we can get back on track to dealing with larger global issues

But right now we have to save our country, and the world. That's the biggest thing we can do at the moment. Because if we don't stop the Nazis, they will allow every polluter to destroy the environment.

Theres a famous account of a dinner between Steve Jobs and Rupert Murdoch, in which Jobs said essentially the same thing: we are not divided by Left/Right, Conservative/ Democrat, we are divided between Constructive and Destructive, and it was clear that Murdoch was on the side of Destructive.

I've been an Unafilliated Independent for my 45+ years of voting, but since reading that, I've described myself as a Constructive Independent.

If Disney had supported their star, instead of attacking her, she would have wanted to promote the movie.

Children, this was the Internet prior to 1995.

Yeah, I love him, too. He's always great.

Anything Mark Wahlberg is in. I've never seen him do a good performance, and I've seen him do a LOT of terrible ones. Mediocre is the best he's got. And yet, he is sure he's going to get an Oscar one day.

My son, who is an actor and a cinephile, complains about how movies and shows all have actors who look like actors, and don't look like real people. He often talks about "iPhone Face," where a character in a period piece like a 19th century western, looks like they know what an iPhone is.
