Lots of people have been raised to think "government is bad" without any critical thoughts about what the alternatives to government would realistically be.

"Government is bad" has been a republican talking point since at least the 80s.

I don't think that we currently know enough about physics to say for sure that faster than light travel is impossible.

I think it's likely that there are still scientific breakthroughs to be discovered that will make currently impossible things possible.

Isn't 4.5 million pounds just the tea and biscuit budget for parliament?

They want to destroy historical documents to save a rounding error in the government budget?

Let one of big wealthy universities look after the historically significant ones. That should save a bunch of money right there.

I agree with the person who said there was a lot of personal drama as filler that didn't add to the story and dragged the pace of the books down.

I thought the books are mostly OK but I kind of lost interest after book 6 and it'll probably be quite a while before I go back to finish the last few books if I ever do.

That's my favorite TNG movie.

Roddy McDowell carried the movie. You sympathize with him just a bit and want the heroes to stop his character at the same time.

I support people's rights to make it but have very little interest in reading/watching most of it.

It's not outstanding but it is well crafted.

Iconic action scenes, memorable, quotable dialog and one liners. Great charismatic actors playing the hero and the main villian. Good actors playing supporting characters.
Decent coherent easy to follow story.

Lots of action movies from that era don't score highly on at least a few of those points and have been mostly forgotten.

I assume this dude is some kind of extreme minimalist or something. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

The term has been around at least since the mid 90s.
