Yeah, the tone is off. I can even forgive the tone but it doesn't even feel like Star Trek on an aesthetic level. None of the new shit post-JJ feels like Star Trek on an aesthetic level.
The answer is yes, because Quark will defend Ferengi values and traditions until his final breath.
I like my eye candy the way it is, thank you. However, you're right. Trill stuff is outright spooky and worth to be fleshed out.
Had to dig through the thread and catch up, but I wanted to answer this:
Well after a month that trailers been ratioed to the mirror universe so I'm pretty confident the only people who are gonna be watching the movie are the lowest tier redditors and youtubers hate watching it so they can review it. Otherwise, the normies probably won't even bother.
It's been said a bazillon times, but Voyager really lucked out getting eye candy that could actually act (and sing too)
I'll try to make a drinking game out of this, so I have to watch it.
Exactly. Who is this even supposed to appeal to?
but they aren't consistent! speaking of RLM i want us all to shittalk their old idea for a star trek series.
Shimerman definitely elevates the Ferengi material; he made it work.
All Mike wrote was Doctor Who + Quantum Leap. Granted, it's better than Current Doctor Who because it's actually about an elderly Englishman showing children around time, but creative, it was not.
#Metoo killed that, all the women running around in miniskirts while the men do all the work and let the negress answer the phones.
its not our fault, i explictly remember calling out how insane critical theory is way back in middle school only for my step parents to go "a C- in English? but you speak english" like a bunch of literal retards.
Mike has shitty ideas in general and isn't called out for how below-cable tier his ideas are
Yeah, being able to read the English teacher is how you get As in classes. Not all teachers are onboard with wokeness, but a lot of them are. Generally, if they're the type to stop lectures to complain about Current Year problems, that teacher is going to be biased.
Promoting JJ Abrams is the worst idea he had. For one, when he made that recommendation he was using Star Trek 09 as a positive example. To quote William Shatner, "It is a tale told by an idiot. Full of sound and fury, signifying nothing." Just by watching that movie alone, one can reasonably expect JJ Star Wars to be more of the same, which it was. Now both franchises are dead brands.
They weren’t wearing miniskirts in The Cage and the First Officer is explicitly a woman.
Rick Berman hired her for attributes other than acting
The only thing that came close is the cartoon, mostly by dint of being set right after the TNG era. It's part of why I like it*, and probably why it got cancelled so abruptly; its close resemblance to real trek made it a ratings hit compared to everything else, which in turn made it a threat to kurtzman's control of the franchise and his slavish adherence to the "everything must be dark and neon" demands of CBS and co.
they should have hired the Miikshi people to do more TAS stuff
Dax performer Terry Farrell herself, however, has described Berman in The Fifty-Year Mission: The Next 25 Years as a misogynist who frequently criticized her appearance. "The problems with my leaving were with Rick Berman. In my opinion, he's just very misogynistic. He'd comment on your bra size not being voluptuous. His secretary had a 36C or something like that, and he would say something about 'Well, you're just, like, flat. Look at Christine over there. She has the perfect breasts right there.' That’s the kind of conversation he would have in front of you. I had to have fittings for Dax to have larger breasts. I think it was double-D or something. I went to see a woman who fits bras for women who need mastectomies; I had to have that fitting. And then I had to go into his office. Michael Piller didn't care about those things, so he wasn't there when you were having all of these crazy fittings with Rick Berman criticizing your hair or how big your breasts were or weren't. That stuff was so intense, especially the first couple of years."
if he got a problem with how Jadzia looks the term isn't "misogynist" it's "queermo"
Rick, you're doing it wrong. You comment on those things AFTER you inserted the worm, if at all. Jesus Christ...
