You don’t think that maybe people are just insecure about it? How does one display that they are smarter! Usually through conversation. So I think that is natural.
No, I don’t think that maybe people are just insecure about it, because there are more intelligent people than him who are less pompous. If you were right, that wouldn’t be possible.
What does intimidation have to do with anything? He's just pompous. He's smart and educated, but that doesn't mean he's not full of himself. And I don't find him particularly entertaining.
I used to be a fan of Neil until I saw how he conducts himself in person. He is not only arrogant but also needlessly cruel. I watched him make a girl break down and cry in front of an auditorium full of hundreds of people by ridiculing her and the question she asked during the q and a part of his visit. It was intentional and unnecessary. And he even made condescending remarks referring back to her after later questions so it wasn’t like he was accidentally too heavy handed with his initial dismissal of her.
I don’t know him and never met him so my opinion is colored purely by the content of his I have seen, and I get the same impression. For someone being poised as Sagan’s successor, I’m not convinced he’s got the right approach.
I still credit him with really sparking my interest in science, but he’s taken a the lighthearted question of “could this work in the real world?” to extremely pedantic and unpleasant extremes. Who the fuck cares if “uhm actually the stars didn’t look like that when the Titanic went down”?
I don’t think he’s a bad person, just a jerk and not someone I’d want to be stuck in an elevator with. Nowadays you have people like Randall Muroe, Adam Savage, Steve Mould, etc. who still dive into speculative physics while keeping it fun and fostering curiosity.
I’m not sure if I would say he’s a bad person. Much more certain about saying that he is not a good person. I look forward to someone else stepping into the role of scientific ambassador to the common folk.
Hmm that’s not promising news for me. I’ve found Futurama works best when it’s handling things not directly related to current events. I’ve been concerned about this season in general since I heard about it, more so after seeing the trailer, and even more so now.
reading this gave me fucking ptsd flashbacks to the few pieces of such media i’ve viewed, pretty sure i’ve only caught snippets of modern simpsons and stuff like the emoji movie and yet it’s like it’s infected my brain.
True. I guess we don’t even know that it would be the same Amazon. Who knows what it could devolve into given the amount of time. Could just be an entirely new company that shares the same name as some random company from a thousand years ago.
Yeah we do. He had 2¢ left, and was gonna buy 5 shares.
And since the writers are time traveling aliens from an alternate dimension, we know they were facts.
So excited. I see the video mostly focuses on covid and robot western episodes, though I see the parasites, alien invasion and robot santa that might be part of their own too.
As the title of the post says it will be released on July 24th!
"If you're US based then Hulu is where you'll be able to stream the Futurama reboot. However, if you're watching anywhere else in the world, Disney Plus will almost certainly be the home of the new series of Futurama since Hulu isn't available outside the US."
I feel like I’m in the minority when I say I was REALLY bored during this most recent season. The jokes just did not land, they tried too hard and tried to be meta too often. Also a lot of the jokes are making fun of modern things, as opposed to what it used to be, which was an exaggerated take on what the future could be. It also just seemed like a lot of the episodes were most “remember this episode from an earlier season? Well we’re doing it again but slightly different!”
Well I liked the last season and so did my wife. Even though it was certainly not the best season, enough people liked it so much Hulu ordered 2 more seasons. They would not do that if people did not like it. That’s what I’m telling the haters.
We would need Google to aggregate instances together for the benefit of search results, but the host instance is great to see.
Maybe when Reddit removes indexer access, Google may put some effort towards replacing it, but I wouldn’t give my hopes up waiting for Google Search to get better.
Oh my god, people here are so over theirself it’s so sad.
Enjoy it or stop watching. You don’t need to suffer.
I loved old Futurama, and I choose to watch the new episodes because I really like the show. Some more than others, that’s it. I’m really grateful they are making more episodes.
