If you're new to Star Trucks, you should probably take a gander at this, as it's one of the best scenes from any of the TV shows. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hdiuRMK3UQ

That sounds like something Kirk would do. After he slept with the Queen, of course.

Bones became an Admiral and lived to be, like, 150 years old, but poor Geordi still needed a visor to see things in the infrared spectrum. drat you, Star Trucks.

A rather spoilerific TV spot for Beyond: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=derB59I21Fw I did some digging regarding that spoiler, and it turns out that Krall was once a human member of the USS Franklin during the Xindi War, and the reason he looks the way he does now is because the planet the ship crashed on had technology to dramatically extend a person's life. The side effect being it changes your DNA. Krall was also apparently a MACO prior to Starfleet, and in this universe, multiple ships fought against the Xindi. The movie also has a 91% on Rotten Tomatoes with nearly 40 reviews, which is an entirely arbitrary number, but is still encouraging. Gonz fucked around with this message at 10:10 on Jul 19, 2016 |

Star Trek Beyond synopsis:quote:Three years into their five-year deep space voyage, the USS Enterprise puts in for resupply at Starbase Yorktown, a densely-populated space colony. During the long period of isolation, Commander Spock (Zachary Quinto) and Lieutenant Nyota Uhura (Zoe Saldana) have ended their romantic relationship, Lieutenant Hikaru Sulu (John Cho) misses his partner and young child, Chief Engineer Montgomery "Scotty" Scott (Simon Pegg) is having difficulty keeping the Enterprise operational with dwindling supplies, and Captain James T. Kirk (Chris Pine) is finding his duties monotonous. Over birthday drinks with Dr. Leonard McCoy (Karl Urban), Kirk questions his motives for joining Starfleet, and he later applies for promotion to Vice Admiral.

Rhyno posted:Just got back from Beyond, loved it. There is a scene towards the end that caught me off guard and I absolutely teared up. You'll all know what I'm talking about once you see it. That whole scene was very touching and kicked me right in the nuts. That said, the movie owned. Owned owned owned. The Yorktown was one of the best settings in any sci-fi movie, period, and the JJ-prise swarm destruction sequence was fantasically shot. The cinematography as a whole was amazing, too. Justin Lin knows how to do action. Definitely go see it this weekend, Star Trek goons. In 3D if you can. Tight storytelling, a lot of humor sprinkled in there, and fan service galore from drat near every iteration of the old movies and old TV series. It didn't really have the galactic or planetary scale of the last two, but I don't feel that it hurt the overall story. You've done well, Simon Pegg & Co. You've very done well, indeed.

Beyond also has the most practical usage of a universal translator ever depicted in Star Trek. It doesn't try to handwave away the weirdness of alien species speaking english from the get-go.

A Federation ship with a poorly lit bridge that's made out of rusted metal alloys, surrounded by a vaguely smokey haze. These are the adventures of the USS Tetanus.

The new show starts in 5 months, and Fuller & Co. haven't mentioned the new cast, or definitively when the show is set. What the hell kind of production is this?

It'll be set in the TOS Mirror Universe, and the Captain of the Discovery will be none other than Roger Cross. Because Roger Cross is everywhere at all times.

FlamingLiberal posted:It's concerning, that's for sure. I mean I'm happy with who they have as show runners, but CBS is doing a pretty awful job here otherwise. I was discussing this with a few people at work during lunch the other day, and most of them didn't even know there was a new show coming up. When they heard that it was on some sort of half-assed CBS streaming service, they seemed even less enthusiastic. "I already have Netflix and Hulu, why the hell would I pay monthly for yet another thing?" was the general consensus amongst the group. I'm sure a lot more people around the world feel the same way. Just put the goddamn show on CBS and it'll either sink or swim. Stop trying to make All-Access happen, CBS. It's not going to happen. Your show is going to be pirated into dust.

The first season will be all about early Starfleet fighting other species over ownership of the Weed Planet. Also, the Weed Planet is in the same system as a Nazi Planet. Expect hijinks to ensue.

I know Walter Koenig is 80 years old, but on that History Channel show last night, he looked like a ghost. Is he just old as gently caress or does he have an illness of some kind?

Had Enterprise not been cancelled, Shran was going to become a regular member of the NX-01 crew. We were robbed of that. So disappointing.

Oh, there's no denying that. The writers too often took the path of least resistance with regards to interesting storytelling on the show. It could have been awesome. Instead, like you said, most of the time it was aggresively mediocre.
