Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith

Wait, this just hit me...

That scene where Picard gets tossed out of the shuttle in the Jeep and turns around with that look—you know the one—that hollow stare and that faint, unsettling smirk? It’s absolutely brilliant. Honestly, one of the best moments in the entire series...

That moment where Picard storms out of the shuttle—looking absolutely lethal—turns around with that intense, haunting stare and a subtle smirk? It’s pure cinematic gold!!! Honestly, one of the absolute highlights of the entire series.

Yeah, the shuttle was definitely a vibe, and Worf really leaned into his role with that heavy weaponry.

By the way, at least datina went out with some dignity.

Facts. Way more class than Kirk ever had.

I’m in complete agreement.

They handled Kirk's exit in the most idiotic way imaginable. There were so many ways they could have executed that transition much, much better...

They handled Kirk's exit in the most mindless way imaginable. There were so many better ways to pull that off...

Exactly. They should have just taken out Picard. He wouldn't have been any less of a problem.

rapidstag74 said:Exactly. They could have easily taken out Picard. He wouldn't have stood a chance.

Precisely. 👍Quite right.

I’m backing Picard when nobody else will. Me and Riker. Or wait, are we even two different people? 😕

I am standing by Picard when nobody else will. It’s me and Riker—unless we're counting them as one and the same? 😕

Keep going, Picky. I'm right behind you... way, way behind you. 😛

Absolute garbage with some flashy special effects. In my book, it's easily the worst Star Trek movie ever made.

Hmm, maybe it isn't exactly a masterpiece...
But you're wrong—I'd say it's actually packed with action sequences and gunfights... (which honestly bores me, and felt totally unrealistic for that era)

And I still think if you consider yourself a Star Trek fan, you have to see this one--
My favorite part was definitely that Datina "transportation" through space.

The whole concept of having a cloned Picard is actually pretty solid, and I have to say the main villain works well—that kid really leaned into the role, and the Scimitar looks fantastic... but...

...there's just a massive pile of unforgivable sloppiness here. At times, it honestly felt less like watching a finished film and more like sitting through some rough, unpolished draft rather than a legitimate, professional script.

But you're wrong—I'd say there's way too much action and gunplay. Personally, I find it boring and totally unrealistic for that era.

What makes it unrealistic?
You know, after World War I ended, people actually thought that war had settled everything—that humanity would never let itself slip into another conflict again.

Haha... yeah, right. Ha ha ha. This century is barely underway and we've already seen several major conflicts break out, and honestly, we're just getting started.

The movie works fine for me. In fact, I think it’s pretty grounded, at least as far as any sci-fi flick can be.

I can't remember if I already brought this up, but I seriously need to vent about this again:
The way they just straight-up ignore the emotion chip in Star Trek: Nemesis drives me absolutely insane! It was right there in Generations, it was in First Contact, it was even in Insurrection, but then we get to fucking Nemesis and suddenly Data doesn't have an emotion chip? And to top it all off, he looks those three right in the face and says, "But, Enterprise-bitch, I do not have emotions." ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? That is three strikes of pure inconsistency right there.

And yeah, I'm calling it—Creepingov’s prophecies are coming true. The real disaster hasn't even hit yet. Just wait until Bush starts messing around and gets his hands on that big bad red button... Thus spoke Andrew Williams.

But you're wrong—if you ask me, there's way too much action and gunplay.. (which is just boring and totally unrealistic for that era)..

Ha ha ha ha... more like ha ha ha ha ha.... We're barely into this century and we've already seen several major (not to mention minor) conflicts, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Personally, I think the movie is fine, and actually quite realistic, as far as any sci-fi can be "realistic."

Yeah..
but back during the time of i sv. rat,
we knew nothing about cloning, DNA mapping, TV, or the Internet...

Who's to say that in 200 or 300 years,
the human race won't be advanced enough that anyone showing warlike tendencies—extreme anger and aggression—
can simply be cured.
🙂
They'll know exactly which chemicals trigger it
and how to fix it psychologically.

Why don't you go see a specialist at the Mayo Clinic and let them "cure" you.
Or maybe that’s not quite what you have in mind?
And wouldn't you probably put up a fight if they actually tried to "treat" you?
Notice I said—> fight.

lonescout2 said:Why don't you just head over to the local healer and let them fix you up.
Unless, of course, that's not really what you're looking for?
Or maybe you’d actually prefer to put up a fight instead of letting them "heal" you?
Notice how I used the word --> fight.

Uh, you make it sound like we're talking about that one chiropractor, Pavlovic (or whatever his name is again?).

silentharbor88 said:Give me a break. You’re talking as if we’re dealing with that chiropractor Pavlovic (or whatever his name is).

Well, he's the absolute authority here.😁

This movie was absolute trash...
I’m usually a huge Star Wars : Revenge of the Sith fan, but this was just straight-up garbage..
The only thing that actually held up was Data; he was consistently good..

Look, I'm a huge Star Wars fan, but this was just garbage..
The only thing that stayed consistently good was Data..

And what the hell does that have to do with you? You jealous or something? 😛
He's mine, period!

Or maybe you don't want that?
Maybe you wouldn't even fight back if they tried to "fix" you?
Watch it—> "fight."

Heh, 😁
but seriously,
maybe I phrased that wrong—the word "healing" doesn't carry quite the same weight in American English as it does elsewhere..

All I meant was that unnecessary bellicosity
and extreme, toxic aggression in people will eventually become completely useless and easy to eliminate..
Because.. we'll know what counts as an illness and what doesn't.. what's acceptable behavior and what isn't..
People will realize very clearly that bad actions toward others come right back to the one who started them.
And it’s been proven by countless studies that every social crisis and every disaster in society stems
from aggressive, "wicked," and negative thoughts and actions (which includes things like persecution, abuse, and harassment).

And...
bioenergy is actually a perfect example..
I've experienced it firsthand.. I believe in it..
And I think that's where our future lies..
The power of the mind and personal energy standing against wars and all this endless hostility..

hehe, 😁
but in all seriousness,
perhaps I misspoke—maybe the word "treatment" in American English doesn't carry quite the same multifaceted nuance as "healing" does in other contexts..

I simply meant to suggest that unnecessary bellicosity
and extreme, harmful aggression in people will eventually become entirely redundant and easily rectified..
because.. we will be able to distinguish what constitutes an illness and what doesn't.. what counts as acceptable behavior and what doesn't..
It will be clearly understood that malicious actions toward others ultimately circle back to the perpetrator.
Furthermore, it will be well established (and proven through experimentation) that every societal crisis and negative phenomenon stems
from aggressive individuals, from "wicked" and negative thoughts and actions (which include things like persecution, abuse, and harassment).

and...
bioenergy is actually a fine example..
I have experienced it.. I believe in it..
and I suspect that lies within our future..
the power of the mind and personal energy standing against wars and various hostilities..

Yes dear.

I have to hand it to you, unknown; from what I've gathered from your posts, you seem like a decent enough person, but when you start writing to me like this, you really get under my skin. It's just unknown. 🙂
