3·11 days agoYou do understand the differences between modern television making and 25 years ago, correct?
If modern era Trek was really so unsustainable, would they be going into their ninth year of it?
What is your evidence that Trek is doomed?
Also, if you don’t like the shows currently being produced, is it really that sad?
Complaining about “kids these days ruining Star Trek” is just sad, Bud. If you can’t engage with people on here without insulting them based on an assumed trait, kindly find another place to talk about Trek.
And, just so we’re clear, I’m old enough that I’ve been watching Trek since before TNG was in production, and my favourite episodes have always been the silly ones.
Remember when Kirk and Spock went to the gangster planet, and Kirk got really into the role?
Remember when Worf, Alexander, and Troi were trapped on the holodeck populated by western archetypes that all had Data’s face and abilities, including the busty saloon madame? Talk about fully functional.
Remember when, in the middle of a war with an existential threat, the crew of DS9 stopped to play baseball against Sisko’s academy bully?
Remember when the Doctor started day dreaming, including improvising an opera about how Tuvok was overtaken by the pon’farr, and the potato shaped aliens using him to spy on the crew thought everything he was imagining was real?
Remember almost every holodeck, Ferengi, mirror universe, or Lawaxana Troi episode? Star Trek can be deep and serious and meaningful, but it can also be very, very silly. And that’s awesome.
It is wild to see the entitlement of some segments of the fanbase. These people would shit and piss their pants if they were comic book fans.
Man, it must be exhausting being actively tedious about a television show that isn’t even being made any more.
While I personally have no interest in watching a youtube show for three year olds, as a new uncle, I hope the show will be a good entry point into the franchise for my niblings once they’re old enough to get something out of it.
As for a cooking show, don’t threaten me with a good time. Let’s see Latinum Chef Romulus’ reaction when the challenge ingredient is leola root.
The first two episodes are already available on youtube. From what I understand they’re very short, like 3 or 4 minutes each.
Okay, A -How would that at all enhance the bit the meme is communicating?
and B - Do you also think that every meme featuring Kirk should have some indication that he’s speaking in Shatner’s distinctive cadence? If it was Sisko, Avery Brooks projecting to the rafters like he’s in a stage play? What about Kate Mulgrew’s mid-Atlantic accent for Janeway?
No, because neither I, nor the person who made it I assume, are trying to appeal specifically to the whiny, shit tier elements of the fanbase.
All I’m saying is that I have to grow as a person, hopefully there’s enough time in the loop for everyone to call their loved ones.
Somebody warp me!
This is violence.
Just so long as we both agree Janeway murdered Tuvix and should stand trial for her actions, I don’t see why that should matter.
I’m going to have difficulty choosing between the NX-01 decon chamber, and the Fairhaven holodeck simulation.
I wonder how much of a gateway Lego might be for young potential fans. What eight year old looking through sets of superheroes and video game characters, isn’t going to immediately gravitate to the Enterprise D conference room?
Child: “That’s where Data and Geordi explain things to Captain Picard!”
Me, wiping a tear from my eye: “Yes it is.”
32nd Century Historians: “Doctor Bashir was good friends with a Cardassian tailor named Garak. Though both men would occasionally take a romantic partner, their friendship was the most enduring relationship in both men’s lives.
”Doctor Bashir and mister Garak’s friendship was characterized by frequent lunch engagements, discussions of classic literature, and long sessions together in the holosuites.
”Eventually the two men retired together to a small pleasure planet that catered primarily to males. Mister Garak ramped down his tailoring to work exclusively with leather, and the pair raised prize winning voles.
”After Garak passed away in his sleep, Doctor Bashir is said to have become distraught. He refused to leave mister Garak’s gravesite, and died himself only three weeks later.”
Hardly!
You’re going to need to back those claims up with some actual evidence beyond whiney youtube conspiracy nonsense
