Okay. This wasn't a bot. Surely.
A spammer reported a (legitimate) post and the report message was a spam link. Like, there's three people who might see that and I don't think any of us are stupid enough to click on their link.
Oh, and then theh replied to the thread with their link.

>Picard goes through some serious **** yet is completely fine the next episode. Four lights, living a lifetime in a day, locutus.
In defense of TNG, the next episode after Locutus, Picard isn't better, he literally has a complete breakdown and considers leaving Starfleet. It's the episode after *that* where he's all better.
But the S4E2 is a great episode.

Meanwhile, I just ordered a BluRay of two movies filmed by some random dude in Uganda. The first has an estimated budget of $85USD.

Exactly.
It's similar to the video game crash in '83 (although not as drastic). Hate Disney all you want, but their billion dollar box office films are putting paying customers in seats, something theaters have been struggling to do for several years now.
If a particular theater chain doesn't like it, they can just not carry Disney movies. Let them see how mean seats they can fill with Shazam! and John Wick 3 (which has done fairly well, all things considered).
Disney doesn't need theaters.

I have this completely unrealistic hope that Marvel Studios actually has a secret fourth movie no one knows about and some day in October they're just going to hold a press conference and be all "Oh, hey, our new Hawkeye movie comes out today."

Think about it... you just spent 50 years in the Nexus, thinking you'd been released five decades ago, then someone comes and pulls you out...
Would you even believe them? Or would you convince yourself you were *still* in the Nexus? I mean, for it to be believable, you have to grow old - and the Nexus can only pull that Insurrection damaging trick so many times before you get suspicious. So, when you age 50 more years, the Nexus is all "Oh, no, lol... here, you're free this time. wink wink. ****. I wasn't supposed to say wink. Sorry. New to this. You're free now. Promise."

Not all Enterprise adventures can be super exciting.
The Nexus knows that Picard will never be truly happy unless he believes he is free. Thus, he occasionally has some lackluster missions.

I'll remind you that in the last film Picard was in, he threw out the Prime Directive because he wanted to re-enact Mad Max on a dune buggy.
I've had a running theory that everything post-Generations has occured within the Nexus and is just the Nexus fulfilling his desires. He wanted to leave the Nexus and save the day. Boom, he's released and stops the baddie in a big action-adventure. He has some reverence for the former Captain of the USS Enterprise and his research on the Nexus surely brought his thoughts about Kirk to the foreground. Boom, he gets to team up with him, displaced from time! He loves history and archeology. Boom, he's thrust back to one of the most pivotal moments in mankind's development. He has some serious issues with the Borg. Boom, he gets to defeat them in a grand, explosive moment. He wants to ride a dune buggy on the surface of a desert planet, Boom, he's riding a dune buggy.

For the people who do this for a living, changing/masking/spoofing their IP is as easy as changing their email.
But banning the IP risks banning actual users/potential users. I'm not a fan.

If Disney really wanted to cause some heart attacks, they should bring Ursula back to her roots and find a drag queen to play her.
As for the casting of The Little Mermaid... eh. I kinda wish they'd stop using big name actors to carry the films... but ever since the Robin Williams/Aladdin fiasco, that's unlikely to change much.

Oh yeah, I wouldn't have asked for anything different with the movie, I just wonder if it would have been even better, for me, had I not known the obvious.
Honestly, I had kinda been hoping thay Mysterio had been from another Earth, but then his counterpart from the mainline MCU Earth showed up to become the main baddie...

I absolutely agree with you. There is zero point in us discussing Discovery until I've at least watched it. A friend has the Blurays he's offered to loan me, I just haven't taken the time.
But, you'll notice I haven't tried to defend the show (outside of addressing your specific point about continuity issues). Frankly, if I had seem the show and thought it was the best television show to hit the air ever, I probably still wouldn't defend it. You don't like it. You don't like the characters, the plot, whatever - that's absolutely fine and I am okay with that. Because that's subjective based off your experiences and I cannot possibly judge something the same way as you and it'd be folly to try.
What I can do is point out that there are those who do enjoy the show. And no matter how much you hate it, no matter how much you want to pretend it isn't Star Trek, your personal distaste for the show does not trump someone else's positive opinions towards the show. You don't have to like it. You can scream it from the rooftops. But being a jerk to those who do like it, insinuating that they're just not as refined as you.... yeah. That ainxt it, m'boyo

15 years later... Which is kinda the point.
Seriously, at this point, it seems like you enjoy consuming media that you don't enjoy (or media about media you don't enjoy) just so you can go online and crap over all those who do.
"This science fiction soap opera fantasy world isn't exactly like it was when I was ten! Therefore, no one should enjoy it."

No need to apologize at all. It's a long running point I've been making in several threads now. We are consumers of products.
If you don't like the product, that's fine. But attacking people who do because it isn't the product you wanted... ehhh..
