Please for those not there yet make shit like this NSFW or something. Fuck.

This was the worst cliffhanger in star trek:

[–] abbadon420@lemm.ee 7 points 10 months ago

Too ~~soon~~ literal

[–] Hobbs@lemm.ee 22 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Worst part is it will probably be over a year from when the episode aired till we get a resolution.

[–] StillPaisleyCat@startrek.website 16 points 10 months ago

More like 18 months.

It would have been a year had the third season gone into production May 2nd as originally scheduled. But with production on hold until the actors contract is settled, and a year for post after, we’ll be lucky to see it in late 2024.

I remember thinking "there probably isn't that much time left how are they going to end this quickly" as I was getting close to the end of the episode

well now I know

[–] mercano@lemmy.world 17 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Also my reaction while watching the last 10 minutes of Across the Spider-Verse, not realizing it was a two-part movie.

[–] Th4tGuyII@kbin.social 7 points 10 months ago

Yeah. Kept thinking it was odd how many new plot threads were opening so close to the end of the movie... only to realise it wasn't "the end" at all.

[–] xusontha@ls.buckodr.ink 3 points 10 months ago

I've been meaning to watch that, oh well guess I know now lol

[–] CeruleanRuin@lemmings.world 16 points 10 months ago

This could honestly make a great meme format by precedng Una's dialogue in the first panel with whatever hard choice.

"You can go to bed, or keep scrolling Trek memes. Orders, captain?"

One of the best cliffhangers in television history.

After killing Yar, and no widespread internet access, people really thought Picard was going to die.

[–] Lemmygizer@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

Exactly my first thought.

[–] evdo@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Well, now we hope they don't cancel this one too.

[–] Stamets@startrek.website 10 points 10 months ago

Luckily that is barely a concern. Season 3 is greenlit, Pre-production is completely done and they're just waiting for the writers strike to finish so they can start filming.

[–] Crashumbc@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Better than a SERIES ending cliff hanger like Legends of Tomorrow turned out to be.

[–] drbluefall@toast.ooo 11 points 10 months ago

Something something Half Life 2: Episode 2

[–] VindictiveJudge@startrek.website 2 points 10 months ago

Or Farscape's. We got The Peacekeeper Wars to wrap it up eventually, though.
