Last copy I saw went on eBay for $85, I’ve never noticed it lower than $150 before that. My library has it in ebook and audiobook, but I would like a copy of my own. I downloaded one and I still want to support the author so I have no issue with buying it on sale. I will probably buy it and print it out at my library at some point because I do just prefer to read a physical copy of something.

Thanks for the tips and link!

I prefer physical books myself, but I’m always ok to read an ebook if that’s how I can get a story. Do you have a preferred place to get them? There are a few that I would love to own, but a used copy is significantly too expensive.

I’m looking at you A Stitch in Time by Andrew J. Robinson at over 100 bucks

I’ve been picking up old ST novels at thrift stores for $1-2. I only have a handful, but the ones I’ve read are pretty good. It’s like reading an extended episode of ST.

I can see where some of the jokes drag on a bit, but I’m personally ok with that. I’ve rewatched it a bunch of times when I use the elliptical or stationary bike at the gym. I feel like the extra laughs give my abs a workout 🤷‍♀️ lol. I laugh my ass off at “The power of Patty compels you!!” and “Is it more or less disgusting if I tell you it came out the front?” every single time. I adore Holtzman so much.

For me, the new ones don’t have a redeeming quality, that’s not the kid actors faults though. Afterlife came out when we still weren’t going to theaters because of COVID. I was very excited for it and I bought it at full price the day it came out on iTunes. I watched it that night and the first thing I remember saying after it was over was “what the fuck was that shit?” All that nostalgia baiting cash grabbing was gross. And the CGI Egon at the end made me feel sick to my stomach, it felt disrespectful to Harold Ramis. I can’t even bring myself to be interested in Frozen Empire.

I often see people complain that a franchise “forgot” what they are supposed to be about and IMO, that is exactly what happened with ATC and FE. They completely forgot that GB is a raunchy horror comedy and made a family friendly coming of age “scary” movie. It’s an entirely different genre.

I disagree, Ghostbusters: Answer the Call received way more hate than it deserved. I really enjoyed it and I have rewatched it a bunch of times, more than I’ve rewatched Ghostbusters 2. Holtzman is my favorite character and I love the goofy dance she does with Abby. And I love Chris Hemsworth’s character, he does big dumb handsome guy really well.

It was way better than the last 2. I watched Afterlife once and I have no interest in watching Frozen Throne at all.

I get where you are coming from, but I have too many good childhood memories of watching both shows with my family. I refuse to let some chodes ruin it for me. X-Files was the weekly thing to sit down and all watch together.

Don’t let the dumb dumbs ruin things things you enjoy 💚

Both are absolutely worth it!

Going through a Star Trek Voyager rewatch from the beginning. I’ve done this with TNG and DS9 a couple of times and constantly rewatch those episodes. I’ve only gone through Voyager once and I don’t rewatch it much, so it’s kind of newish to me again.

Other than that, reading my Star Trek novels from the thrift store and borrowing Blu-rays from the library to rip into my collection. I really want to do a watch of X-Files again!

I’ve been intentionally avoiding spoilers and previews, so I had no idea it was coming. It was a really happy surprise for me and that episode was so great.

I absolutely adore Sam’s smile, just beautiful!

That episode is my favorite one so far. It was such a great homage to DS9 and I loved seeing adult Jake.

I also super love that they are bringing back the skirt uniform. Jay-Den rocked that outfit! 💚
