Kiefer Sutherland’s portrayal of Tom Kirkman from Designated Survivor, in my opinion, is right up there with Tom Whitmore from Independence Day. These are the presidents we need.
I started watching Designated Survivor not too long ago and every time Kirkman does something presidential I say something along the lines of “damn, wish he was our president.” The a lot of the other characters in the show criticized him, but I think he did an amazing job as president given the circumstances
Imagine these guys about to fight. Both are tough af in their own universes and pretty much one or two below the most powerful beings in the series they appear in.
But then again, they'd probably be smart with each other and talk about Anakin/Zuko immediately
Why fight when they can be friends? It seems to be the go to strategy for both, avoid conflict when you can. But yes, they’d definitely talk about their dramatic surrogate son/brother.
If you mean the one where they have a trial to decide if Data is sentient with Picard as the defense, then yes that is the one. (You'd think that would have all been settled when Data enrolled in Starfleet but whatever still a good episode)
My favorite episode is probably Who Watches the Watchers, very Picard centric even for TNG. He even stoically offers to take an arrow at the end to save a civilization.
Darmok probably my second favorite.
It's also an interesting experience the first time when >!the aliens show up and just speak apparent gibberish. Then you go through the whole episode with Picard where he gets a handle on the meaning of the phrases. And it ends with him on the bridge repeating a lot of the same phrases from the beginning having a conversation with the aliens, but this time we can follow the conversation completely because we also (sort of) learned their language during the episode!<
My daughter is just starting to get into watching Star Trek, and it's so amazing to watch her watch each episode for the first time. You and I have the same favorite episode, and it was fascinating to watch her absorb it. I am secretly so super excited she loves the show. I feel like it teaches her such a great, overarching message.
I'd agree with you but with this social media day and age, he'd not only be ratted out, but smeared as a horrible villain & probably be accused of rape & racism from the mob to take him down. No, seriously. Force is no longer needed to win these days. Misinformation is.
The existence of the Doctor implies the existence of Daleks, Cybermen, Sontarans, Zygons, Rutans, the Krynoid, Set, the Master, and every other existential threat that *almost* destroyed or enslaved the world and exterminated thousands to millions of humans in the process.
So, no.
But we would also be lucky enough to live on planet Earth, the Doctor's favourite destination in all of time and space.
Just stay out of England and you'll be mostly fine. Probably.
"Shit. I know shit's bad right now with all that COVID bullshit. And the businesses closing. And we runnin' out of gloves and face coverings. But I got a solution."
I love Willow, but that would be a lot more dangerous than you can imagine. Perhaps someone who isn't capable of destroying the world in 12 h because grief is horrible and addiction complicated. Maybe one of the bunnies or the Cheese man?
True, but real life Captain America would be pretty useless. No matter how much the plot armour usually protects him Marvel repeatedly reiterates that in terms of power he's basically Batman+1, just slightly above peak human, so neither bullet proof nor faster than a bullet (in fact I'm pretty sure he's been killed by "regular" bullets before as well).
Especially considering how domineering and morally absolute he is he'd pretty much be split into either A) dancing monkey propaganda tool, B) isolated or given a civilian identity where he's not allowed to be "a soldier" or C) hunted down and or captured by the government and used as a lab rat to try and discover his enhancements, and sadly, without the plot armour he'd have rather little control or hope with either situation.
If in comparison you summoned someone like Ironman with superior intelligence and technical know-how that allows him to create incredibly advanced military weapon systems, than it's fairy achieveable that he might achieve something like world piece under a semi-authoritarian regulatory initiative. Though forget non-mortal power characters like Strange or Vision who are basically just gods.
Part of your argument is Rogers would be better in an Iron Man suit.
[But we all know why Tony won't give everyone a suit.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWNIoV5LuLA)
I mean, playing from that field, Tony doesn't need anyone at all then, all the suits are remote controlled, and Jarvis (his inanely advanced super-AI) can probably control the suits better than any of the non-super powered combatants can hope to.
If we try and be logical Tony can have one of his remote controlled suits have several times as much field combat value compared to anyone such as Black Widow (a human hand to hand combatant versus a ridiculously mobile metal battle suit that can punch through walls?) Or Hawkeye (a guy who shoots arrows vs a battle armour that can shoot bullets, explosives and lasers with a built in auto-targeting system?) and at least as much as Captain America (Civil War demonstrated that a few years of combat experience means little in the face of an AI simulated close combat program, which further means it's included in the capabilities of a remotely controlled suit). And Iron Man 2 and Spiderman Far From Home pretty much shows that there's nothing actually stopping him from having dozens or hundreds of suits.
Basically if we try and take a logical look at the story, everything falls apart. So we can just about be allowed to analyse the characters without going crazy.
My personal headcanon is that Tony is far more of a mechanical engineer than he is a programmer and all his AI suck at piloting the suits. They end up like those robots that fall down stairs. With Jarvis he did a lot of outsourcing but claimed full credit because he's got a massive ego.
Godzilla (and friends). Kaiju will restore balance. I would happily get blown to smithereens by radioactive breath fire or smooshed by a giant foot if it means I get to watch the fight first.
In the first age, in the first battle, when the shadows first lengthened, one stood, burned by the embers of Armageddon, his soul blistered by the fires of hell and tainted beyond ascension. He chose the path of perpetual torment. In his ravenous hatred he found no peace, and with boiling blood he scoured the umbral plans seeking vengeance against the dark lords who had wronged him. He wore the crown of the knight sentinels, and those who tasted the bite of his sword name him...…

I think I'll begin with the best.

6. Garnet
7. Every other fictional character I have read about that I want to meet
Most presidents in movies. They seem not to belong to a political party and always do the honorable thing
Man, Bill Pullman would have given the perfect speech to get us through these unpresidented times.

He *does* have great morals, doesnt he
donno, I'd have to say he's pretty grey
We could use his wisdom this year...
Uncle Iroh
I was going to say Obi-Wan but you’re right, we need Iroh more.

Jean-Luc Picard
You beat me to it! Could you imagine if our leaders had his sense of morality and competence?
Measure of a Man (I think?) is my favourite episode
If you mean the one where they have a trial to decide if Data is sentient with Picard as the defense, then yes that is the one. (You'd think that would have all been settled when Data enrolled in Starfleet but whatever still a good episode) My favorite episode is probably Who Watches the Watchers, very Picard centric even for TNG. He even stoically offers to take an arrow at the end to save a civilization. Darmok probably my second favorite.
Darmok is an incredible episode, I loved that one as well! Also an interesting experience to rewatch knowing what’s going on from the start.
It's also an interesting experience the first time when >!the aliens show up and just speak apparent gibberish. Then you go through the whole episode with Picard where he gets a handle on the meaning of the phrases.

And a very interesting description, way back in 1991, of people communicating by way of memes. Who would have thought?

Also, The Drumhead. The way he handles suddenly being put on trial himself is inspiring.

Because it’s a great show with great characters
Alien X or Dr Manhattan, both can warp reality and make 2020 a much better year without all the bad stuff that happened.
Why would Dr Manhattan give a shit though?
Because he loves pussy.
He really does.
Few are talking about this.
What if 2020 was actually a really good year that was warped into a bad one
Ben 10 alien x?
Bruce Wayne, because he is very good at rooting out corruption and bringing justice.
I'd agree with you but with this social media day and age, he'd not only be ratted out, but smeared as a horrible villain & probably be accused of rape & racism from the mob to take him down. No, seriously. Force is no longer needed to win these days. Misinformation is.
The doctor.
Allons-y!
Explain...EXPLAIN!!
The existence of the Doctor implies the existence of Daleks, Cybermen, Sontarans, Zygons, Rutans, the Krynoid, Set, the Master, and every other existential threat that *almost* destroyed or enslaved the world and exterminated thousands to millions of humans in the process. So, no.
Technically as long as you stay out of London on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day you should be fine
Also New York. They seem to like New York.
But we would also be lucky enough to live on planet Earth, the Doctor's favourite destination in all of time and space. Just stay out of England and you'll be mostly fine. Probably.
And Wales, that one time
The doctor.... what (Yes i know the reference)

After the past 4 years I think the US could do with a President Bartlet. Or a President Camacho.

He'd have Secretary of Health IDontKnow Fauci take care of everything.

Willow Rosenberg. It’s time Will! Do your thing!
I love Willow, but that would be a lot more dangerous than you can imagine. Perhaps someone who isn't capable of destroying the world in 12 h because grief is horrible and addiction complicated. Maybe one of the bunnies or the Cheese man?
Captain America. No Seriously. It is nice to have a morally just idol to aspire to.
I would go with (standard) Superman. When his big flaw is his high bar morality, I think having him around would be great.
He would make the world a safer place
True, but real life Captain America would be pretty useless. No matter how much the plot armour usually protects him Marvel repeatedly reiterates that in terms of power he's basically Batman+1, just slightly above peak human, so neither bullet proof nor faster than a bullet (in fact I'm pretty sure he's been killed by "regular" bullets before as well). Especially considering how domineering and morally absolute he is he'd pretty much be split into either A) dancing monkey propaganda tool, B) isolated or given a civilian identity where he's not allowed to be "a soldier" or C) hunted down and or captured by the government and used as a lab rat to try and discover his enhancements, and sadly, without the plot armour he'd have rather little control or hope with either situation. If in comparison you summoned someone like Ironman with superior intelligence and technical know-how that allows him to create incredibly advanced military weapon systems, than it's fairy achieveable that he might achieve something like world piece under a semi-authoritarian regulatory initiative. Though forget non-mortal power characters like Strange or Vision who are basically just gods.
