Where are you that National Parks are so inaccessible for you?
I'm not doubting, I have no perspective on this because I'm from Calgary where I go to them on a near weekly basis and it's cheaper to go to them than anywhere else.
Funny thing is, very few Calgarians get to go to these places not everyone has a car and options for transit to Banff and Waterton is extremely limiting. It's definitely a middle/upper class thing
Agreed.
"Prequel armor" is like super plot armor because you know the character will never die. At least with plot armor you might wonder if it will eventually get removed.
I'm never worried for them when Galadriel or Elrond are on screen because I know they'll be just fine and live happily ever after.
I feel the same for Spock in strange new worlds.
