/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

Fun will now commence.

Is this another new trek show? They're still trying?

This screenshot is from Strange New Worlds. It’s really good.

Pre-TOS era, modern storytelling and cinematography. Good times all around.

But very much a B5 type of storytelling, where the problem of the week takes front stage, and the overarching plot is in the background.

That sounds kinda promising actually.

I think the episodic nature of pre-Disco Trek works in its favor. In episodic Trek, if the authors get a bug up their ass to write something stupid or tedious, you get one episode of stupid or tedious. In serialized Trek, if they get that same assbug, you're stuck in the fucking mirror universe for most of a season.

I don't think it's a coincidence that PIC and Disco have had mixed-to-negative fan reaction, while SNW and LD have been received overwhelmingly positively.

I don't believe it honestly. Been burned on DSC and PIC already which were raging trashfires. Is the transformers guy and his bad robot nepo babies still involved?

You are a close minded fool. I bet you also complain about how “woke” Star Trek became

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

Projection. Just because I'm not a moron consuming corporate slop with more plot holes than plot and contrived drama doesn't mean I'm some rightoid just because both upset you. If anything ironically you make them look cool, were I not pretty far-left I'd probably now think the anti-woke people must be pretty cool if they don't consume actual garbage.

Not sure who you're referring to here. By bad robot I assume you mean JJ Abrams? He only directed the 2 movies a decade ago as far as I'm aware. I don't know of any transformer guys in star trek.

No. Alex Kurtzman primarily, who is the showrunner for DSC and PIC, handed such a role for his previous successes like writing Transformers 2 and such hits as TASM2. But not just him, also Akiva Goldsman, Michael Chabon and Kirsten Beyer. You know, the four horsefolks of the apocalypse that ran trek into the sorry state it's in today.
