This is important to Snyder's fans who fought for his cut to be released and solidifies the continuity of the DC universe.

The latest episode of Star Trek: Picard suffers from inefficient storytelling and a focus on continuity for the sake of itself, reminding viewers of older, better Treks.

The b and c-stories feel derivative and shallow, and the plotline of a troubled character with a secret past is stale. The episode also raises questions about logic and continuity, such as how a character who betrayed the Enterprise crew was allowed back into Starfleet.
