I’m doing a chronological rewatch of the whole franchise and am at the episodes where DS9 and Voyager overlap. It is mind boggling how much better DS9 is. I find myself wanting to skip almost every Voyager episode so I can just get to the DS9 ones.
I’ve watched Picard and discovery twice now and can safely say they’re very pew pew. The third season of Picard rocks, regardless. I still consider discovery to be the worst of all Star Trek shows. At the end of the day, I love all trek, but those two are not the highlights of the franchise.
For one Star Trek isn’t fantasy in space which is honestly a lot more appealing to those of the nerdy persuasion.
Like, Star Wars has ships that can travel anywhere and basically instantly whereas there are actually in universe explanations for how that might work in Trek and you can’t just zoom home whenever you want - Star Trek Voyager is a whole show about a ship that can’t return home. There are also just way better characters in trek and enough variety that everyone has different favorites.
It’s also nice that many of the conflicts in trek are solved through logic, diplomacy, and smarts. Only in Star Trek Discovery and the Picard show does the franchise venture too far into “pew pew” territory.
At the end of the day Star Wars is like 10 movies and a handful of shows that don’t do much and Trek has that many movies plus like 700 episodes of content.
One last tidbit, most of trek actually flows really well into each other and I think is way more cohesive than Star Wars where each era of movies feels like a different universe.

I wear a TNG uniform to my local ren fair every year - it almost exclusively generates excitement and high fives.
Honestly not what I expected but I’m interested.
lol what a lame post

Make sure you keep in mind this is a sub 100 million dollar movie and most of the scenes were shot guerrilla style with a team of 4 people. What they achieved with this approach is nothing short of incredible. The CGI pieces got a lot of love because the actual scenery and backgrounds are real and shot on location leaving the budget to be placed on the robots and future tech. I really hope it inspires other filmmakers to try a similar approach. The way the movie is made excuses some of the faults I’ve seen levied online IMO. The movie isn’t perfect but damned impressive.
The secret is Jeffrey Combs
Major shareholders sign term sheets which always govern the terms of who is prioritized with profit, major decisions or in any economic event. Breaking term sheets is breaking a contract which is illegal in the sense it has legal consequence for not being adhered to. Especially if it involves a public company and is under SEC jurisdiction.
Because he’s fully functional.
Still won’t help you get around a permaban if that’s what you’re thinking. Can’t think of another reason why you’d want to buy one.
Same. The homeless population has unfortunately made libraries where I live pretty dangerous places and I can only imagine how much worse that would be if they were open all night. My city doesn’t seem to care at all about people shooting up and ruining public spaces.
Honestly one of my favorite things about Star Trek are all my favorite “that guy’s” that show up. Was rewatching DS9 the other night and was like ITS BEN HORNE FROM TWIN PEAKS! Leland being a crazy religious proto-Vulcan in TNG was also a fun appearance.
Genesis - one of the all time greats. Peter Gabriel is probably my favorite individual musician and love that this band granted him a career that’s still chuggin to this day. Phil Collins gets a mention too cuz who doesn’t love Phil Collins.
Honest opinion - it was just below mediocre. Very undercooked and you could feel how the producers jumbled around the episodes and changed things. Like most of the marvel shows it feels very amateurish and part of the reason Feige\Iger are changing things with marvel studios and now starting to bring in actual tv producers instead of using the movie folks.
This dude thinks he’s a Vulcan lol
Sounds like a sad attempt on Disney’s part because they couldn’t come up with a fresh new movie and instead are cannibalizing characters that should be focused on the tv side of the company.
