Ever seen this movie? I bawled my eyes out at the end, when Chance and Sassy came over the hill without old Shadow, I thought he was dead, then he appears. 😭😭😭

I don't even like Wesley Crusher, but even I have to admit he got totally shafted by this episode. I don't care for the whole Traveler concept, and shuffling Wesley off to be some kind of higher being was lame.

Megabooks Agreed. It was a lame episode, with a lame ending. It‘s a good prompt though. 😉 And I loved Homeward Bound! Such a great movie! 6y
LibrarianRyan I prefer the original version from the 50s 6y
Birdsong28 Love this! 😍📚📖 6y

“If your dream is at the end of a rainbow you‘ll never reach it.”

#StarTrekSummerMay | 30: #JourneysEnd

Megabooks Once again, I find your quote intriguing. My first thought: Given that I am a woman of reproductive age, I‘ve had a lot of friends lose pregnancies, and then call the next child their rainbow baby. There does seem to be happiness with the new child, but it seems one can never make up for the other(s). All of this is strange to me given that I‘m ace and have never wanted kids. But that‘s what immediately came to mind. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 6y

TNG7.20 #JourneysEnd Oh boy, so many problems! A White Man's Burden™ story (think Trail of Tears) with a side of Magical Indians™. And Magical Wesley. And cliché flute music. Barf. Poor Tom Jackson: I wouldn't be surprised if the psychotic break he suffered in the 1990s was the result of roles like this. Unwatchable.

Let's read about real people shall we and actually do something to decolonize Turtle Island instead.

Megabooks I‘m excited to read an indigenous author for #booked2019. I haven‘t read many. I stopped reading Magical Negro™ books 10 years ago when my white friends couldn‘t shut up about The Help. Indigenous people, POC are not around for the benefit of white people, to teach white people lessons, etc. 👎🏻👎🏻 6y
tournevis @Megabooks Exactly! And this episode is part of the problem. We must do better. 6y
Megabooks Have you seen the Picard trailer yet? I just saw a short one on Twitter awhile ago. # 6y
tournevis @Megabooks I saw the longer trailer too: https://youtu.be/eA-GJNebJj0 6y

This #JourneysEnd is one of the most tragic that I‘ve read about and watched documentaries about. Jim Jones‘ decent into delusions and paranoia led to tragic consequences in the jungles of Guyana. Heartbreaking! Excellent #audiobook.

The episode is probably one of the worst of the series. It‘s basically to write Wesley off of all future (cannon) storylines. And Beverly giving him the blanket - lame! #StarTrekSummerMay
