Spoilers Star Trek: Picard General Discussion Thread

[The Old Mixer]

I know I should be a better person, but my blood pressure rises every time I see people saying they watch the contemporary series on tablets or DVD. What's wrong with these people.

I'll see their tablets and DVDs and raise them my phone...

Also maybe not everyone is an early adopter and wants the latest and greatest technology. If it works and you are happy with it why be forced to change because it might be considered trendy. I'm more then happy with 1080i or 1080p on my devices and my tablet is 1920x1200 so not sure where that resolution fits but things look very crisp on it and it's an IPS panel

It's not like latest and greatest is cheap.

It's not like latest and greatest is cheap.

But it's also functional and works so why change?
Just on the screen thing where would 1920x1200 fit?

 

[HotRod]

making it more likely it will get major Emmy noms tommorow.

Nope.

I'm beginning to think I should take back everything bad I said about Picard Season 3. Just watched 'Secret Invasion' episode 4, the latest show from the famously rich and powerful Disney set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe that's supposedly the gold standard for how franchises are done (although that aura of invincibility has been weakening after Quantumania), and they're doing the "Who's an alien impostor" storyline too.

Without spoiling too much, suffice it to say that Secret Invasion is handling the alien impostor story much, much, much worse than Picard did.

No one’s said the MCU has been consistently good for a few years now. Certainly not since Endgame.

I am fairly certain that when they entered Phase 4 or wherever they are at now, there was a lot of people finding it lackluster.

 

[cooleddie74]

Honestly No Way Home and Loki have been my favorite chapters of the MCU since Endgame followed by probably Ms. Marvel. Everything else is on a descending scale from pretty good to total meh.

They just started Phase Five with Ant-Man: Quantumania. Which I caught recently on Disney+. It was, IMO, just… shit.

I liked Loki and Moon Knight, I don’t think I’ve seen anything past that. Honestly, there are soooo many shows now, I can’t keep up with Marvel or Star Wars.

Same, and when I get frustrated about that I remind myself that I am lucky to live in a time where that is even POSSIBLE.

 

[Gingerbread Demon]

Really, I thought Endgame was trash, and the MCU is mostly trash too

Imagine the worst fanfic you've ever read.

Now, imagine P+ having AI software and access to actors' likenesses and voices (P+: "Let's send Seven of Nine back in time to the Enterprise-D! We can have her in a love triangle with Riker and Troi! Seven can have Riker's child!")

This strike has EVERYTHING to do with you, me, and Trek.

You are giving the writers future ideas when they return...... Ugh!!!!!!!!!!!!

It can't be any worse than resurrecting Shaw.

 

[The Wormhole]

Eh, I'd be okay with resurrecting Shaw since it means giving Todd Stashwick work. Otherwise, meh.

 

[Nerys Myk]

Imagine the worst fanfic you've ever read.

I think that was called “Picard Season Three“.

Mmmm....Axanar would be my vote

 

[Anduinel]

No one’s said the MCU has been consistently good for a few years now. Certainly not since Endgame.

And the comics they're adapting the story from weren't any great shakes to start. I suspect the point of this whole series is just to plant a mystery box for the next one.
