I generally agree, but
Was the ST a garbage fire? No! It was also fine. Some of it was ok, some of it was actually good. But as a whole, it was fine.
I’m sorry this objectively is wrong. The ST was the definition of garbage fire. There was nothing fine with it.
Then this is exactly the kind of conversation-ending, inane, useless statement I’m talking about. You’re not actually saying anything; the only possible responses are agreement (in which case, nothing has been gained) or disagreement (in which case, no one’s mind will be changed). It’s the most boring, the most tiring way to have an online discussion. Stating your opinion as an opinion, with a reasoning, is so much more interesting and productive.
the objective definition of garbage fire is literal refuse that is aflame. the sequel trilogies are movies, not quickly-oxidizing litter. the phrase can be used subjectively to describe the percieved quality of something, which is what you’re doing here. if you’re going to pedant at least do it right.
