i like the bit i quotes where he's like "people will begin watching star trek on this "internet" thing soon, i think, and once star trek is dead long enough people are gonna want it back with letter-writing campaigns and stuff" and im thinkin of the Captain Worf pitch like "dang"

i really cant see captain worf going anywhere, bless michael dorns lil heart, but i do hope it at least got the execs thinking about how 1) pre-reboot fans are still very much out there in a big way, and 2) huge-budget movies and 26-ep full-budget tv seasons both represent large investments with attendant risk, a netflix limited run, not so much

Guys get this. We take star trek. We take game of thrones. We take house of cards. Then we mash them all up into a frankenstiens monster of a TV show and rake in the money.

The opening scene involves NEW ALIENS capturing Martok and then MYSTERIOUS FIGURE IN THE SHADOWS beats them all up with his super space kung fu and saves him. You'll never guess who. it's Worf

Yes that is the way to show that old Star Trek can update and keep up with the 21st Century-- storytelling that was considered hokey and cheap 20 years ago.

counterfeitsaint posted:The Klingons pulled their knives on him because he was mist, which they found offensive, and attempted to stab him. Then the klingons, who regularly fight each other to the death over untied shoelaces as a matter of honor, tried to rules lawyer an extradition because he was "surrounding them in a menacing way." started watching ds9 and it fixed everything I ever thought was wrong with trek, there is a Klingon lawyer in season 4 who wants to extradite worf for mass murder and like all star trek courtroom episode guest stars he is the best

i 'dug' how by like halfway through the first season (and repeatedly afterwards) odo's already admitted that he surveils everybody on the ship inc. when theyre in their private quarters, and infiltrates p much anything confidential or private, and people are like "well he's the CONSTABLE so whatever" and its never really treated as anything but a mild annoyance ds9 dropped the ball there imo, they were so good at looking at the tensions between federation talk and federation walk and the realities of post-scarcity paradise earth and the frontier, but they really oughta dragged odo into the light and made everybody very uncomfortable about how he was unapologetic about preferring cardassian 'justice' and he totally ignored federation civil rights as a matter of course and it was tolerated because HE GOT RESULTS GOD DAMMIT like he could have spied on a suspected vulcan arms dealer or sth and tried to bust them and then it turns out the vulcan was an intelligence operative and the whole thing embarrassed the vulcans so badly they were determined to see odo hung out to dry. u know, a real solid courtroom ep

I was watching Star Trek Renegades and the big bad blue alien seems awfully similar to the big bad green alien in Galaxy Quest. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eE2Wgop9VLM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VGajDTNKFU

It makes me sad that even if Axanar is genuinely no-fooling good it'll never escape the gravity well that is the stigma for fan-productions and no one who isn't already deep into Trek will give it a shot.

Blazing Ownager posted:He's not wrong though, it's worth going from season 1 up (even with a few early misfires) because while it's mixing in TNG stuff, it ALSO is builting the mythology that impacts the rest of the series. If you skip anything.. just skip Move Along Home. All the Bajorian stuff and the major players there get established all the way back in Season 1 including, as mentioned, Garak. Even Move Along Home was important for establishing Quark's character, and later Quark-centric episodes were some of the best of the series. Yeah, Move Along Home had some serious campy TOS elements to it, but developing the Ferengi beyond stupid clumsy capitalists metaphor was one of the things that really set DS9 apart, and Move Along Home was, I think, the first episode that really looked into Quark as a person and not as a stereotype.

Move Along Home is fun but its structure is the worst soft of high camp, writers room stench, low buy-in acting. audience gets it long before the cast does plot, and capped off with the 'now lets never speak of that again' finish that epitomizes bad serialized trek. What I'm saying is there isnt a lot of Garak in it.

caleramaen posted:the Borgias. The woman that played Caterina Sforza playing Janeway as a Caterina Sfortza-figure would have been the best incarnation of Voyager ever. Cut the throat of a thousand captive Kaizon Nistroms at the gates of Kazon Nistrom city, just as a sign of welcome to start the 'peace negotiations' with the Kaizon Nistrom ambassador, to show him that Caterina Janeway means business. gently caress Q and steals his clothes and shares his naked pictures around the quadrant just because. Cut off Tuvok's ear points when he protests so he can think like a Human from now on.

Had it been written for TOS, it would be among the best 5 episodes and highly praised. That's how bad TOS is. Unwatchable garbage. (I watched all of it. Twice. Probably will watch it again in the future.) The Bible fucked around with this message at 02:14 on Sep 8, 2015 |
