A stray undeveloped meme I thought about from last week’s SpongeBob day.
TNG Season 5’s episodes 10-12: “New Ground”, then “Hero Worship”, and rounded out with “Violations”. A gauntlet of awkward viewing. Good thing that’s it for kid focus this season… ah, shit. I have “Cost of Living” and “Imaginary Friend” (20 & 22) to look forward to. yay.
Edit: Mild dialogue alignment. But no typos, so I’ll take that as a win.
Oof. Yeah.
The mind rape is why I never recommend Star Trek: Nemesis. Without that scene, it’s a middling Trek film. Thanks to that scene, I just don’t find it worth the watch.
Not to mention how dirty they did Data.
I’m actually fond of Data’s big scenes.
One of the big things that kept data from ever becoming a real boy:
Massive spoiler for Nemesis
…is that everyone knows he might never die.
Brent Spiner delivers a brief moment when Data faces death, and realizes with some fleeting happiness how human it is, to face death - it’s really well done.
Right? 100% of the rapists headed straight to Deanna’s quarters. Wtf.
And Koala forbid that Dick Berman drop that plot line:
ENT s1e17 “Fusion”
It was all a simple misunderstanding you see!
