Taear posted:That's how subtitles work here too though. Stuff here (the UK) isn't always subtitled so things still say subtitled. And Dolby stuff shows up too because not everyone has soundbars! It's a US term used to differentiate from simply translating foreign language, I didn't coin it.

Pick posted:Closed Captions means it's for deaf people. So it indicates other noises that are taking place, like I was always under the impression that the "closed" part of closed captioning meant that you had to turn on that feature on your TV (or hook in a special box or however it was done in the 80s) to see it. Open captions would be part of the actual picture, like the subtitles on a foreign film, so everyone sees them regardless of their TV settings.

Drone posted:What was the budget on the TNG upgrade? I could see Netflix doing something with it, though DS9 by the own admission isn't as popular as Voyager or TNG in terms of analytics. I remember reading somewhere it was ~$20 milllion for the series.

This all goes back to CBS just not understanding how to capitalize on Star Trek Now that they have their own streaming service, they could easily make it an "event" and come out with an episode a week. If you got just 100k new subscribers to sub for three years at the commercial plan, it would fund itself.

It is kinda wild that there's never been another animated series since The Animated Series, and especially during the fallow period between Enterprise and Discovery. Build up some viewership, cultivate some interest by young people, tell stories that would be expensive to do in live action, draw on some of the tie in novels or comics for source material so you make the franchise work for you. Cultivate your poo poo--its audiences from when it was popular are old or dead now.

The problem is that western non-comedy animation is still pretty much entirely targeted at pre-teens/young teenagers.

for the picard show they should simulcast avery brooks as sisko as picard and every episode is a sliding doors type deal where we explore how these great but fundamentally unalike men would handle a given scenario

I've been watching a lot of Trek lately (mainly DS9 and TNG but the odd Voyager and TOS) and I've noticed they really like the double axe-handle attack for their fight scenes. It's quite prominent.

If I was one of those TOS era fan film groups I know what I would be doing as a proof of concept. Take some TAS scenes, and have your cast lipsync to them. Then replace faces with the actual TOS cast using that creepy DeepFakes technology (if you don't know what it is then NWS on searching it)

FuturePastNow posted:we really only need to convince Jeff Bezos that DS9 is the best Star Trek and needs remastered I have often thought that it was weird that no idle billionaire just dropped some pocket change on it. I thought Silicon Valley loved Trek. To be honest, we will probably have to wait for the day when advanced AI can just automatically generate all the extra detail for real uprezzing.

You couldn't tell until this enhancement that LaForge always had a Twix bar getting crinkly and melty in his pocket. Technology had really made me appreciate the nuance they put into the characters and setting despite knowing you'd never see it on TV.

pyrotek posted:I remember reading somewhere it was ~$20 milllion for the series. It was closer to $20 million per season for the remaster. Remember, not only did every single effects element have to be manually recomposited, every phaser redrawn, etc., they had to re-cut each episode by hand. It was an obscenely time-consuming, and therefore expensive, effort, especially after HVS botched the second season, forcing CBS Digital to staff up to manage the remaining five seasons.

The Extra Pockets Edition is actually great. Who can forget that scene where Riker picks up the perfect flat rock and puts it in his pocket, later on to skip it across a still pond?

I assume that's what does happen, all over the Federation. Big and probably very cushy space trains. Mass-produced constant transports. A huge number of constant impulse/low-warp inside a solar system, sleeper service mid-warp ships between systems. We apologise for the inconvenience, but the twelve thirty seven to Mars has been delayed and is now departing in twenty-three minutes.
