  • Not only that, but the insistence on seeing everything as zero-sum is fucking ridiculous.

    “Well we didn’t even take down a massive corporation with an install base of hundreds of millions!! Hmph. Why even bother ☹️”

    How old are these people? Are they for real? Lol



  • I was pretty hooked on Babylon 5 from the start, and I can’t say the same for series like Star Trek: TNG! To me the world felt pretty fleshed-out and cohesive really early.

    I actually need to pick Babylon 5 back up, I can struggle with watching series consistently, even ones I like.

    I might be in the minority but I watched The Day the Earth Stood Still twice in my twenties and thirties and I found it almost impossibly slow. I’m not used to the pacing of old movies, so that might be part of it.

    But I also was expecting more of a science fiction movie than a social drama. It has a robot on the cover. Haha!

    I watched it the second time to understand what I didn’t see the first time, and realized it’s just not for me. I can’t remember my particular complaints other than the pacing, which might be fine if the kid is used to it.
