DREAMWIDTH FRIENDING MEME

Heyo!

So after a few plurk discussions, the want to start journaling again a la Livejounal came up a few different places, and this idea was born!

We ask if you participate, that you attempt to post 1-3 time a week, and comment as much as possible to help jump start personal journaling here on dreamwidth. And if you use your journal already (or if you start from here) we'd love a link back to this meme! The more the merrier!

You can also follow this community for both daily writing prompts and a monthly friending meme!

To participate, copy and paste this in a comment, fill it out, and go make some friends!

Hello fellow INTP! I am intrigued by this and would like to hear more about your feelings on TOS and Star Trek in General *nods*

I'm honestly very bad at articulating myself, aa - but TOS has my heart because it's the first of the series I've actively pursued. And come on it's TOS - it's a lot of fun, the plots still ring with importance, and I adore the entire cast (especially Spock, my darling, green child - and Uhura's a fantastic role model for people like me).

I grew up with Trek in the background, my dad watched The Next Generation a lot when I was a kid, so there's a real nostalgic feeling that comes with the series overall for me. I'm actually getting back to my roots and trying to watch TNG myself and I'm really enjoying it! I'd like to watch the entire franchise if I can, I'm borrowing it bits at a time from my library.

As for the reboot movies? Eh, I like them, they're flashy and fast - but Beyond definitely makes up for the first two's faults imo (it gave us Jaylah ♥)

A++++ reasoning there. I grew up with Trek myself, mostly Next Gen, DS9, and Voyager. Dad's a Kirk fan and Mom's a Picard fan and all their kids are somewhere in the realm of agreement there. I'll take any of them, but I have a preference for Sisko.

The first reboot movie I sort of adored. The second less so, and I have Beyond to watch but I haven't gotten there just yet (maybe this weekend!)

So far I'm actually really loving Picard as a captain enough to give Jim a run for his money ( /w\) And please do see Beyond! It feels more like the episodes did, if that makes sense?

I'd love to talk Trek more often - friends, you think?

...Will definitely be watching it this weekend. You've convinced me. Hee, I do love Jean-Luc.

And yes! Definitely friends. I love talking about Trek and pretty much anything else.
