    Who would have guess that another overpriced solution to a non existent problem that no one wants would have been a commercial failure …

      these people live in a delusion, chasing star trek fantasies while the general population can barely afford rent. we are truly due for the chickens to come home to roost.

      i just hope a lot of innocent animals don’t get hurt in the process.
