NOBODY WARRNED ME 😭😭😭 - eviltoast

Description of image: Meme image. I can’t believe he didn’t cry during Titanic! Do men even have feelings? The man is crying at Picard crying in the mud.

      I love how the Ent D restoration was Geordi’s mid life garage project.

    “Family” s4e2. Admittedly, haven’t rewatched this one for years. Could use a little gut punch.

      It has a great effect if you binge The Best of Both Worlds while stoned right before it too. Can confirm.

    I laughed at titanic.

    You want to talk moments that kicked you in the soul? Lore saying “I love you… brother” as Data is deactivating him.

    Maybe it just hits too close to home after being in a similar situation with my own evil brother. But that’s one of those moments that always catches me off guard. Especially since the rest of the episode isn’t all that great, so it’s easy to let your guard down.


    While I’m feeling nostalgic, here’s a few other honorable mentions in the “I wasn’t prepared to feel emotions today” category:

    • Ivanova after getting healed - Babylon 5
    • I didn’t count on being happy - Batman: Mask of the Phantasm
    • Demona’s password - Gargoyles

    In the first episode of Picard, playing chess with Data… “Because I don’t want the game to end.” Man, on so man levels, it was a few weeks before I could even say that line without getting choked up.

    I grew up as a little boy watching every TNG with my dad, I don’t want the game to end either.

    Still blows my mind that Roddenberry hated the script for “Family” and wanted it thrown away. Like it’s great that humanity has evolved past most interpersonal conflict. Picard has PTSD as he should for what he went through. Same reason for his perspective in “I, Borg” and “First Contact.” He is damaged. His scene with Sisko in “The Emissary” is so great because Picard feels like he deserves Sisko’s animosity. “Family” is one of my favorite episodes. Right up there with “Duet” and “It’s only a paper moon” for showing the emotional cost of war.

    Sci-fi shows have moments that weirdly hit really hard.

    This scene is one for me.

    In Stargate Atlantis when Dr McKay loses his memory in a similar way to alzheimers, I lost my shit.

    Warehouse 13 s3e11. running up that hill plays quietly in the background

    Sliders has several. Eureka, Farscape, quantum leap, futurama, Battlestar Galactica, firefly, fringe, the list goes on…
