What’s something that you feel like you should like, but for some reason can’t get into, no matter how many chances you give it?

For me, it’s The Three Body Problem. It should be right up my alley from everything I’ve heard about it (especially the second book, which looks at the Fermi Paradox and the Great Filter!), but for the life of me, I can’t get past the first chapter at all. I even tried reading it in another language to see if it was the translation that kept me from getting into it, and nope.

    I’m a very casual Star Trek enjoyer, and reckon the 2009 film wouldn’t be the worst place to start.

      The opening scene of that movie is some of the best Trek ever made. I say that as someone who’s been watching since 1987

        Absolutely. It’s a fantastic scene.
