I never saw Patrick Stewart at a convention and didn’t come with him into direct contact in any way when working on #StarTrekPicard but there’s one Patrick Stewart/Jean-Luc Picard related achievement that only I have ever made - find proof that Patrick Stewart exists in the #StarTrek universe. 1/10
Posted only two days ago, only linking to Hillebrand’s tenforward.social account rather than his blusskey one.
Shorter title “Patrick Stewart canonically exists in Star Trek.”
I prefer “Proof that Patrick Stewart exists in the Star Trek universe”, also, “canonically” is a bit overused at the point I don’t want to see the word “canon” in anything related to media.
The problem I have with “universe” here is that it isn’t specific enough. A term as encompassing as universe can mean actors, directors, and all the stuff that makes Trek and not just what shows up on the stories told. Canonically specifically tells us he exists within the context of the stories Trek tells. Even if it’s just a blurry prop.
Only took nine words to shorten the title by three words!
And it’s a lot more readable.
