Spoilers Star Trek: Picard General Discussion Thread

That may be so but I personally do not have the time or inclination to watch a five hour opinion piece about a movie half the review’s length. Primarily because, as you suggested, it’s hard to tell whether these reviews are done in good faith without watching them. And while I might be a little more tolerant of YT opinion videos than I was three years ago, I also find myself much busier in real life. So my time for consuming such media is fairly limited. A five hour video is just not feasible for me.
Same here. People are welcome to those videos and no doubt they are laughing all the way to the bank compared to me. But, the time in my life where those videos carried any relevance are long gone.
 
Picard keeps saying that records of 21st century Earth are fragmentary. Yet we also saw that in TOS Starfleet regularly conucted time travel historical research missions. Did they just not time travel to anywhere after the 1960s?
 
I have a weird feeling that after Kirk and the Enterprise returned from the Gary Seven mission in 1968 that Starfleet realized that bumping into advanced aliens in Earth's past that can lead to altering history isn't a wise idea so they either severely scaled back the time travel research project or stopped it altogether. I'm sure Kirk left certain details out of his logs on the mission but "narrowly averted an early outbreak of World War III and at the last second" and "20th century locals seeing you and your technology" aren't good things to hear during the debriefing.

Makes sense, Temporal Investigations were still mad at Kirk a century later.

They're going to canonise V'Ger having a connection to the Borg Collective, aren't they?!

WTF?

They are throwing everything and the kitchen sink at Picard now.
Please keep watching season 2. LOL



The article headline is pure clickbait. Only at the end of the article do the writers specify that only a certain music instrument, the Blaster Beam, that makes the iconic V'ger sound effect will be in Picard season 3.

I'm baffled by this announcement.

1) Another season 3 announcement in the middle of season 2.
2) An announcement about a specific musical instrument that is going to be used in the next season is strange. Especially when this instrument is associated with a specific entity.

What has Picard to do with V'ger?

This is either a giant spoiler for season 3 or a red herring.
Another attempt at trying to prop up the popularity of Picard season 2 by trying to associate it with The Motion Picture. Especially now when the hype for TMP (good Star Trek) is at its peak because of the recent release of the TMP 4K Director's Edition. Another attempt at leeching on to someone else's success and riding on someone else's popularity wave.

It's 16 not "over 30". Alex Kurtzman is again wrong about Star Trek. No big surprise here.
I found the error.

A tryhard is negging and trolling every property in the franchise with bullshit complaints because annoying other people who are trying to watch the shows in peace is how he gets his kicks for some reason.

So his latest stretch is using imprecise secondhand quotes by an 81 year old actor that have zero bearing on the show itself, where his intent was clearly rounding up from the 28 years since he last played the Picard character in a TV series rather than movies.

Your shtick is tiresome and pathetic. Find a better hobby.

Star Trek uses elements from Star Trek to promote Star Trek!!!!!!!
 
Q is incredibly inventive. He not only saved Picard and his current crew, but transferred their consciousnesses into altered reality bodies.

Makes me wonder what other powerful entities think of the Q? I'd love for Picard to ask Q why he can't be more repentant like that Douwd guy he once met?

Maybe some of these other entities just hang back and watch the chaos? I imagine that alien cafe owner from Voyager's 'Non Sequitur' chilling and sipping on a Vulcan mocha.
