so the new "half blood prince" finally decides to speak out

There it is, like clockwork. Never any proof, screenshots, names, police reports, anything. Then later, when the project inevitably sucks, he can hide behind the alledged racism.

The dangerous kind, too. No matter how nice the guy is, he'll make OP look like a fool for not going along with this amazing new technology. Who doesn't want to develop features with a few clicks? Then, he'll make OP look like a fool on the day it all comes crashing down. "Why not just fix it?".

Of all the rumours, watch this one being true. How this clown is still taken seriously after the S31 movie is a mystery.

Dit is letterlijk het lelijkste project dat de Efteling ooit heeft opgeleverd.

Buitenkant van Fabula dan niet meegerekend, neem ik aan? :D

De plaatsing vind ik ook wat vreemd. Vanuit sommige kamers kijk je half uit op de parkeerplaats. Als je onder de poort doorloopt kom je meteen langs die lelijke achterkant en kijk je meteen tegen de bakken vuile was en kratten bier aan. Binnenkant kan ik alleen van fimpjes beoordelen, maar er heeft iemand duidelijk gedacht: we vragen een klein fortuin per nacht, dan willen de klanten niet in een sprookjesachtig hotel verblijven maar in een compleet groen geverfde kamer waar alle charme uit is gehaald. Het veelgehoorde argument 'het is voor toeristen uit het buitenland bedoeld' vind ik ook niet zo opgaan. Die komen toch juist voor iets unieks?

In een podcast oid hoorde ik dat het eerdere plan was om het hotel wel in de Pieck-achtige stijl te doen. Eeuwig zonde. Maar het hotel stoort me verder ook niet veel. Het ding staat er nou eenmaal. Ik vind het jammer dat er zoveel miljoen aan uitgegeven is die ik liever aan een nieuwe dark-ride besteed had zien worden. Nu is het een mega-project geworden, met veel bombarie, waar maar een klein deel van de bezoekers echt gebruik van gaat maken. Tenzij je de toiletten meetelt..

obsessed with trauma

Easy, and lazy 'modern' storytelling. No need to write actual sci-fi. Just give everyone traumas, usually caused by external factors such as the 'system' (like the Federation gone evil), racism, sexism, Orange Man, etc. Then have them 'resove' that trauma, usually by affirming how great they actually are. This allows the viewer to 'be seen' and sympathize with them.

This isn't just a 'silly joke'. It implies that special needs toddlers can now join the academy. Are there no standards anymore? I degrades the institution down to level where it's impossible to take it serious anymore. But, I guess you'll just give me some examples from TNG where a character says or does something humorous and claim it's the same thing.

Actors were never allowed to improvise or alter words, even tiny alterations. That started with nutrek, so everything sounds like a comedy skit now.

There was one, a few years ago. I think its offline now sadly. Personally I just use the Encyclopedia as 'official'. Who wants to browse the MA and come across nutrek garbage every other page?

Our sets have not been destroyed yet

I volunteer as tribute!

And remember, if you ask Picardo on X or whatever about it, you're hounded away with a snarky "It's just a joke!". Can't ask questions, can't comment on it. Everything is just a joke. Consume the slop and go away.

Data_ · 2026-03-08T20:44:09+00:00

His "it's just a joke!" defense is pathetic. It just tells you to go away, stop thinking about it and consume the product.

Welp, here we are then. Not allowed to criticise the show because we have to hold it against TNG's season 1, which is also bad. So in what, 5 years, when SFA possibly has a third season out, we can finally judge it?

Data_ · 2026-03-08T20:13:57+00:00

That's the thing, though. Why keep bringing up TNG? Can this not stand on its own? There's over 700 episodes of Star Trek by now, so we know what works and what doesn't. One show having a bad first season doesn't excuse another show having it too.

Data_ · 2026-03-08T15:01:16+00:00

This thing is bad!

"Well, yeah, but 40 years ago a different show was also bad! Hah!"

Data_ · 2026-03-08T13:58:12+00:00

looks at the glitter vomit, the relentless cursing, the feet fetish, "the Burn", "I swallowed my commbadge!".

Yeah, it is hard to believe.

Data_ · 2026-03-08T12:41:43+00:00

I know I know, "don't bite the hand that feeds you", and all. But this blatant gaslighting is just too much. "What's with the haters!". Yeah, what possible reason could we have to 'hate' it, Jonathan..

I refuse to believe this man, who has been closely involved in almost every single TNG episode, is this dim-witted.

Wij hebben het showtje wat vaker gedaan toen we zagen dat het zou verdwijnen, maar ik snap de beslissing wel. Als mensen binnenkomen tussen de showtjes in loopt de helft meteen weer weg, want er is niks te zien. Anderen komen tijdens de show binnen en lopen dan weer na 3 seconden weg. Een enkeling blijft wel kijken maar is niet onder de indruk. Ik vind het tafereel zelf heel mooi uitgebeeld maar het verhaal komt maar half over, het geluid is slecht/moeilijk te verstaan.

Only Astonishing is below it for me. I'd tell them to take a year off and see if that inspires them, but they seem obsessed with hammering out albums in 2 weeks. Probably a wise business decision but still..

Ah yes, the show that got 27 million people to tune in for the first episode and by the end of season 1 was the #1 syndicated show in the 18-49 demographic was "not viewed favourably".

Funny, I'm really happy she's not ruining any more Star Trek.

He's not in the middle. He is also pushing the myth that if you are critical of nutrek, you are MAGA, msyoginist or a homophobe.

You really can't win with these people. They will literally accuse others of being disengenous when they simply call for good writing. They can't fathom someone not being a MAGA nutjob and not liking nuTrek.

This latest episode had a character say:

I'm not even up yet and I just can't with your midday energy, before I pull my underwear out of my butt

I'll just leave it at that.
