- Comment on New Era of Star Trek - promotional trailer for new shows on Paramount+ 1 year ago:
Agreed. It was an amazing bit of fan service that was executed in a way that didn’t t make it feel cheap or meaningless.
- Comment on Get a Rare Look Behind the Scenes of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan 1 year ago:
One of the best ship to ship combat sequences ever made.
- Comment on Braga: ‘I still cringe when I hear it.’ Apparently, it was a long road to the franchise’s most despised title music 1 year ago:
To quote the great Nicholas Meyer (Director of Wrath of Khan) who spoke on this topic:
“Roddenberry had his own utopian vision about he perfectibility of man, and I never really believed that. And I don’t think the show demonstrates that. I think it is about gunboat diplomacy. In the final analysis, the Enterprise fires. They’re always shooting and bringing civilization, and coming to worlds where they don’t approve of tyrannical enterprises – no pun intended – and they substitute their own quote unquote enlightened version of how society is supposed to work, which is essentially American.”
- Comment on My mum had her finger on the lens for all summit photos she took of me. 1 year ago:
Those are super easy to fix. Even the Google eraser could fix those easily.
- Comment on Don't worry. Be happy. 🙃 1 year ago:
I have lived in the desert my whole life. So I guess I’m an expert to and I can tell you that it’s hot as fuck and it can still kill me. No amount of planned “exposure” is going to prevent dehydration or heat exhaustion.
- Comment on Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds | 2x09 "Subspace Rhapsody" 1 year ago:
Another great episode. The a capella theme song was great too.
- Comment on Jim Kirk on Pike’s Enterprise - Inverse dives into an analysis of canon constraints and lack thereof 1 year ago:
100% agree with you. The TOS loyalists are going out of their way to find excuses to hate this show. It’s the best series I have seen since TNG and I am not saying the others were bad. I actually like all of them with the exception of Discovery because eit focuses so heavily on one plotline and one character.
This is an ensemble with humor when it needs it and is more true to the heart of Trek than people are giving it credit.
- Comment on New Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Photos — “Subspace Rhapsody” 1 year ago:
I love this season. This show has done for me what Discovery didn’t. Made Trek fun or thought provoking when it needs to be while entertaining existing fans and new viewers.
- Comment on Paramount Plus just dropped its big Star Trek crossover episode early 1 year ago:
This episode was amazing.
- Comment on Jesse Watters’s Mom Gives Him Advice As He Finishes First Show In 8 PM Time Slot: “Do Not Tumble Into Any Conspiracy Rabbit Holes” 1 year ago:
My cousin is a lobbyist (the shitty insurance kind) and it’s difficult conversing with someone who literally sells out the rest of us in the name of capitalism. I can’t imagine how difficult it would be to have a kid on the opposite side of the political spectrum doing a job you feel is dishonest and hoping they do the right thing.
