Is this actually shorter or what?

Thats the TV/Home Video Cut. Its longer because they threw in a bunch of unfinished deleted scenes.

The vectrex video game style graphics are kind of charming to my broke brain, millennial self.

These special effects are really loving beautiful. Too bad you can't make an entire movie that way!

Apropos of nothing, that bleep-bloop version of Vivaldi's Four Seasons in that episode of Voyager where they have to get back the probe that tells everyone how to build nukes is surprisingly good.

I liked TMP, but it was also the first ST of any kind that I ever watched. So maybe I just liked the setting and general idea. I should watch it again now that I have more experience under my belt.

I see what they were driving at. It's awesome in the context of reviving a cult hit TV show on the big screen. I would have been creaming my pants if I saw this in the theater.

I couldn't do it. I'm watching Office Space and King of the Hill instead. Also, I accidentally turned on closed captioning on my TV and it's weird at poo poo seeing my TV covered in label maker writing when I watch VHS.

I've read through about 30 pages of the thread but no chance in hell can I possibly read all of them. I used to watch Voyager and TNG probably about equally when I was a kid (not much, just whenever they were on and not much else was) and I preferred Voyager at the time. I watched Tinker Tenor Doctor Spy recently and then watched the first two episodes of the first season of Voyager out of curiosity in the last few hours and it's not bad? Maybe I just like kind of cheesy poo poo like this. I hated Firefly and thought DS9 and the new BSG were tedious as gently caress when I watched those so I'm not a big serial scifi person in general but honestly Voyager seems light, kind of dumb and enjoyable so far and I like Janeway

Baronjutter posted:A good star trek could be anything set in the trek universe. Yeah but what even the gently caress is "the Trek universe" and what makes it particularly interesting (beyond nostalgia value) to set stories in? The setting was always hollow, a stage flat for Our Heroes to stand in front of. It has a lot of baggage from the past, and if you try to say "well we feel free to just do our own thing and disregard whatever we didn't like" then what was the point of setting it in ~the Trek universe~ to begin with? I mean, do you really care that much about "phasers on stun" and "beam me up"? About the only bedrock elements of the Star Trek setting are A) a united Earth at peace with itself, and B) space elves that are big on suppressing their emotions, and C) FTL travel, and if that's all you think Star Trek is, what's the point?

The first half is still okay, but I always feel like the second half bogs down hard when it starts taking the plot too seriously.

I know a lot of little random details of Star Trek but pretty much no idea how any of it fits together and I also don't care, which might be why I'm enjoying Voyager so far watching it from the beginning

Voyager fatigue will set in. It will encompass you in its stupidity. You're not noticing it yet, but it's transgressions will add up and soon you will remember the first date where you hit if off so well for what it really was. Also, remember that even in the very first episode, Janeway chose to remain stranded 75 years from home for ethical reasons. She did this because she wanted to force you to watch her stupid decisions for 75 years.

Here's a podcast where the two hosts and guest Doc Hammer (from the Venture Brothers) discuss and rank every Star Trek movie: http://www.maximumfun.org/we-got-this-mark-and-hal/48-best-star-trek-movie-w-doc-hammer Doc Hammer is a huge trek fan and he starts out talking about that movie as "like someone laced my life with codeine / attacks your pineal gland / like you're floating in salt / it's eight hours long! / has elements that do not exist in movies" If you like Venture Brothers and want to hear Henchman 21 nerd out about star trek I love it.

Someone to Watch Over Me; Seven of Nine returns to a total lack of understanding of social interactions, observing the crew at a distance. And bluntly states that everyone with quarters on Deck 9, Section 12 is very aware of when Tom and B'elanna have sex. The Doctor leads a cringe-worthy lesson on romantic relationships for Seven that would make a High School Biology teacher cringe which leads to a whacky bet about her actually taking a date to the diplomatic function. It's also revealed that the Doctor is the supposed reason for her skintight bodysuits (he designed them). They do at least manage a pretty good scene of Jeri Ryan and Robert Picardo getting to show off their singing talents though. As for the supposed A-Story, Voyager rips off a TNG plot with a supposedly-religious ambassador who really just wants to get hedonistic with some hasparat and pudding. I actually did like the final punchline of the Diplomat coming back to tell the Ambassador it's perfectly fine to deviate from that strict religious itinerary to try a little fun in moderation, and he was disappointed the Ambassador (apparently) didn't. More character than most of Voyager's main cast have had in five seasons squeezed into a single line. Also, ST:VOY writers, if you're gonna have "social lessons" as a framing device, maybe don't repeat the same ones every couple of episodes.

i dont hate the venture bros but i dont like it enough to start watching it when it started carrying around continuity, lacking a non-lovely place to watch it all without piracy, im not sure its worth the gigabytes on my computer so like the first season i know is good i guess but then i see a random episode with the monarch going drat i miss being a bad guy??? I don't know, it's just weird to me in that i don't mind continuity i've just never seen a single thing out of context that made me want to watch

I never understood why she didn't just stay there and set the bomb off herself. No reason to strand all these people there too
