    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    I guess there is some element of Vancian spellcasting to the Dark Side... If you don't prepare your "crush space shuttles" spell after meditation, you won't be able to cast it.

    Star Trek Strange New Worlds, what did you think?

    I kinda expected to see him in Engineering, being the one that took out the space pirates there. But I guess he wasn't so lucky, got captured and put in a cage conviently always off-camera. :)

    Star Trek Strange New Worlds, what did you think?

    The quick arrival of T'Pring was kinda surprising, but my guess is - the prison she's working on right now is near the same "edge" of Federation space? It kinda makes sense: T'Prin and Spock are trying to make a long-distance relationship work. That might include her taking commissions near...

    Orville: New Horizons (Spoilers)

    Felt to me like it might become a new big bad, actually. They basically assimilate people, and retain the knowledge of their host, so that opens up some future shenengians. But maybe not, the way they were sneaking around in a kinda bestial way kinda makes them flat as actual villains. Villains...

    The Boys Season 3 Official Teaser Trailer

    I wouldn't be surprised if Edgar was involved and it's one of his failsafes. But you have to remember - the safeguards in place would have been enough to stop the Boys. If they didn't have three superpowered individuals, they would be all dead (and even Kimiko alone wouldn't have been able to...

    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    Ah, good old Scorpius! He'd make a fine Tarkin. But maybe not a younger Tarkin anymore...

    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    Well, they had apparently one single landing bay they could come out of, that should be somewhat "coverable". At the minimum you could have some TIE Fighter patrols around the area where they are breaking into. I guess Vader didn't want to risk murdering Obi Wan by his pilots or gunners blowing...

    Star Trek Strange New Worlds, what did you think?

    This will be a flawed answer as any to the dilemma, but I think it's not about the "size", but about it being a personal self-sacrifice, not a majority killing a minority because it's the most convenient thing. Spock didn't push Scotty or McCoy into the warp core, he went himself! In this case...

    Black Adam – Official Trailer 1

    Oh, is that Miss Shaw (Sarah Shahi) from Person of Interest? Nice to see her again...

    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    I actually felt more like the other Inquisitors were Chaotic Stupid, because they didn't realize that Reva's plan was working. They in fact seemed kinda squeamish, seemingly having problems with Reva's brutality and cruelty. But she wasn't even as bad as Vader was when he appears on the scene...

    Star Trek Strange New Worlds, what did you think?

    I meant, if "officially" Starfleet believe she's just a human, or just a human-like alien). I know what she actually is in the show.

    Obi-Wan Kenobi (spoilers)

    I found some of the editing or the way some scenes were depicted oddly looking. Like the chase for Leia - there was maybe one or two believable moves and the rest just weren't. I think they could have done that better, maybe with having more guards interfere or something. The Obi-Wan/Vader...

    Star Trek Strange New Worlds, what did you think?

    Worf (and not any of the Vulcans aboard the Enterprise) was supposed to be the one with compatible blood for a Romulan. Star Trek biology is certainly strange. But it probably also helps that Una was genetically engineered (possibly even to be extra-close to regular humans? Don't quite remember...

    Orville: New Horizons (Spoilers)

    The first episode of this season was certainly very different from the first episodes of the first season. Kinda feels like Seth always really just wanted to make a Star Trek (like) show and only put in humour because that's what Fox (and maybe fans from some of his other work?) wanted. But the...

    I saw Top Gun Maverick (spoilers)

    I enjoyed it, even though the only thing I remember about Top Gun is from Hot Shots. And even that's next to nothing. :)

    Moon Knight - SPOILERS

    Oscar Isaac was certainly good this episode, playing against himself and going through a vast array of emotions in a single episode. Yeah, Maslany was just amazing. It must have been both incredibly stressful job, but also so much artistical fun to have worked out all these nuances, and even...

    Picard season 2 (spoilers maybe unmarked)

    I guess it depends on what their exact ability to "threaten" the continuum are. Maybe they just really don't like that the El-Aurian can notice changes to the timeline (or any changes to reality maybe even) because that limits their omnipotence. But it's not of much use if someone is just trying...

    Picard season 2 (spoilers maybe unmarked)

    In "All Good Things", Q helped Picard wipe out humanity with some weird anti-time anomaly, where Picard's attempt to figure things out were actually the reason the time anomaly started. Maybe it's simlar this time around. It is weird that a mission destined for Europa would fine traces of alien...

    Strange New Worlds trailer

    And now there is also a Number One, pardon, Una, trailer: The M'Benga thing surprises me as well, but how often was M'Benga on the original show? Maybe he was only temporarily assigned or visiting during McCoy's tenure? "I wanted to join Starfleet since I first saw the stars" - is she just...

    Picard season 2 (spoilers maybe unmarked)

    Liked this episode. I kinda felt John de Lancie channeled a bit of his character on Breaking Bad into Q when he talked with Soong about having something meaningful to them. Which might hint that Q actually lost (context of the scene + his Breaking Bad character also lost someone) someone that he...
