I love that Worf made this list, haha.
He’s not sure why he’s here
He is the definition of absentee father sending his kid off to be raised by his human grandparents and rarely if ever speaking of him. And when his kid is understandably upset about it Worf gets pissy at his son for having emotions about it.
Honestly, Vader’s probably the best one up there, even before his face turn at the end of Jedi. When he finds out his son is alive, the first thing he does is seek him out and try to get him to join the family business. Sure, they have a tense conversation which doesn’t end…great, but at least he’s trying to reach out. Compare that to Worf, who seems to genuinely hate his kid and spends the better part of two shows pawning him off on other people, and it’s not even close.
Cronus gets a bad rap. A prophecy said that one of his children was going to rise up against him. That is self defense.
“By mandate of the Titan Succession Protocol, Subject ‘Zeus’ has been flagged for immediate neutralization. Probability of overthrow: 99.8%. Remediation strategy: Biological reclamation. Note: Emotional variables are irrelevant to outcome efficiency. Proceed with ingestion. File closure expected upon digestion.”
“You think you can hide a prophecy in the dark, Cronus? Swallowing them whole doesn’t make the future disappear; it just digests the evidence. The precogs don’t lie. They saw you holding the stone instead of the boy. You didn’t stop the overthrow; you just guaranteed the one who got away would come back hungry. You’re not a god, you’re just another pre-criminal waiting for the halo to drop.” ~John Anderton Minority Report, Greek Mythology Division
My father taught me to make sure I would never have to rely on him.
Tbh the comments here are completely expected from the Lemmy crowd
Longest day of the year
bottom right? i was thinking the tsar that killed his son at first but no i remember his face was very shocked
While like someone said this is Saturn, you’re probably thinking of “Ivan The Terrible and His Son Ivan” by Ilya Repin. God I love that painting. The history is horrifying but the emotion captured in his eyes is just masterful
