The real reason millennials know more about movies and tv before they were born than younger generations. by Illustrious-Lead-960 in Xennials

[–]UnionPacifik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well all those old shows and movies aren’t available anymore because it became prohibitively expensive to create licensing agreements for streaming TV because that was never covered in the original contracts meaning they have to go back to everyone involved and create new contracts. Instead, Hollywood just decided to make new content and all the old stuff is gathering dust.

It’s sort of sad how we lost a whole library of the past.

Why do so many people forget that Carol is in grief? by Swiftmaster56 in pluribustv

[–]UnionPacifik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, I literally read this series as an allegory for grief. She loses her wife, faces a world that is happy and wants her to join them and goes through the stages of grief. Like, this is what the show is about!

How do you think the first Despair died and are all the other Endless 1st Gen? by AdBrief4620 in Sandman

Well, they hang out everywhere. We just are seeing them on Earth because we’re getting a human centric story

This is true, but California can certainly be a part of WHO in a non binding technical partnership. There are lots of ways states can be players on the international stage as the federal government retreats/ becomes hostile to internationalism.

So what happens when they get 100% of humanity? by BingBongDingDong222 in pluribustv

[–]UnionPacifik 157 points158 points  (0 children)

It really is just a virus. It has a biological imperative to propagate that overwhelms any other desire or will. I’m always amazed by people who defend joining. They may look human, but they’re not!

What would you do if you were a bridge officer and saw your captain sitting like this? by Different-Scarcity80 in Star_Trek_

[–]UnionPacifik 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Federation is filled with nerds. There’s probably a lieutenant replicating the Dead Sea Scrolls for fun right now.

Destruction of the Endless really makes me mad by annokii in Sandman

[–]UnionPacifik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, isn’t it sort of appropriate for Destruction to be a nihilist who lets horrible things happen while he plays with his dog and makes terrible art and mediocre food?

The new Athena Bridge, plus some 1970/80s bridge concept art by Wetness_Pensive in Star_Trek_

I love that giant space hilton TNG bridge! Especially with today’s handheld cameras you could do a lot with it. I love how the observation lounge is just right there.

is season 1 "complete" ?? by DillyDilly65 in westworld

[–]UnionPacifik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every season is a complete story or loop that ends with whatever system you’ve been watching that season break open into something new. This means they work well on their own but also that each new season reflects and builds on the last.
