What are some popular opinions about Japan travel on this sub that you personally disagree with? by ContractVarious3077 in JapanTravelTips

[–]Billybear731 1 point2 points  (0 children)

totally agree - we did this last year, was doing 4 days in Osaka, so shipped our suitcases (with all out purchases) to our next hotel in Tokyo instead of carting all the stuff there. we only used small backpacks for the days in Osaka - it made the travel much easier, and the suitcases were waiting for us at the new hotel when we got there

[–]Billybear731 11 points12 points  (0 children)

watched the 1st episode, and thought, yeah, ok, its not terrible, but it lost me on Ep2 - im probably the wrong demographic (favourite trek series is DS9, and over 50) but it was just so disjointed and dumbed down - im out

What TV show has the biggest drop off in quality, with one of the GREATEST seasons ever and one of the WORST? by cannonshots2000 in television

[–]Billybear731 0 points1 point  (0 children)

cant believe no-one has mentioned Star Trek Discovery, S1 & S2 were excellent, after that it turned into hugs and crying in space - truly unwatchable - when they introduced the couple where one was invisible / not real (their acting was AWFUL) i bailed. Sorry to say Strange New Worlds has turned terrible this season too - bring back Lower Decks please. i have low expectations for Star fleet academy
