Anytime a Vulcan gets all self-righteous you can remind them about their sacred listening post and persecution of carriers of psyphilis even if they only got it 'cause they were mind-raped

Gutcruncher posted:Yes except the second one. Into darkness was loving terrible by all metrics, Star Trek or not. I still think it was good until the moment Khan reveals his identity. That's like the moment it feels like I lose all interest. It has, in my opinion at least, the most entertaining opening of all of the three JJTrek movies. It feels like you're coming in at the final 5 minutes of an episode.

I liked the bit in Beyond where the Jem-Hadar looking main villain does his big villain speech and says ”My homeworlds history is one of war. It made us strong!” And you think oh he’s just some discount Klingon . But then there’s the reveal that he’s actually a preserved past human and he’s talking about earth. I dunno I thought it was cool and actually seemed to get the Trek idea of humanity actually being able to become better.

Beyond was good but if it had had more time in the cooker (it was incredibly rushed) it could've been really really good. It had all the right stuff it just needed to sand off some edges.

God, after either JJ or Simon Pegg publically going "he's not Khan you guessed wrong", that moment of Cumberbatch chewing up "I..... am Khaaaan." was the smallest oh. I ever produced.

One of the few things I remember about the Kahn one was how everyone involved in the movie lied on social media about Kahn being in the movie at all. I kind of respect that, if someone is going to ask you to spoil you movie before it even comes out, they don't really deserve an honest answer.JediTalentAgent posted:It has, in my opinion at least, the most entertaining opening of all of the three JJTrek movies.

I think a lot of that movie coasted on it's great opening.

It's still presented as a big dramatic moment in the movie, if people figure that out prematurely and you go "nuh-uh!" you just come off looking surly and pathetic. The better move would've been not to address those speculations at all.

There is a pattern where they show the bridge something unexpected happens, then Archer turns to T'Pol and gives her a little look like why didn't you know this? Then they show T'Pol's emotionless face. Seems pointless. Enterprise Risa episode's big twist: Archer, Reed and Tucker get catfished, and Hoshi translates her way into the sack.

The Risa episode was good loose and fun Trek. It's probably one of the best episodes of S1 Ent. And it shows us that the anti Suleban forces are after Archer in some way. There was one totally weird moment in that episode. The woman guest that flirts with Archer is one floor down from him and has some ugly little dog. Archer steps into his villa and seconds later his dog is making a fuss and the other dog has somehow found its way up one flight to a suspended balcony.

Wasn’t Risa 9/11 just “oh no sex planet got wet which is ironically not what we want sex planet to do?”

I think the terrorists got tired of making it rain and decided instead to destroy the planet by reversing the polarity on the tectonic earthquake blockers or something. Then Worf punched them in the face and took back his sonic screwdriver from them so they couldn't mess with stuff anymore.

I mean she could have used a transporter. She ends up knocking him out or something so I thought she was targeting him and teleporting the dog is an easy way in. But I don’t want to think about Enterprise anymore.

I've never been able to put my finger on it by DS9 is operating on a level of humor the other shows don't really get on. Like, the episode where O'Brien is framed for giving warheads to terrorists. The way Cardassian courts work is so darkly funny.
