I think the really frustrating thing about the episode is that at the end Nog tells Jake to tell both sides of the story or whatever instead of doubling down on his (correct) opinion that Watters was a terrible captain who got everybody killed.

I mean a few pages ago you were saying that Jadzia is better than Ezri so I guess this is the wrong Star Trek opinions mega thread now.

I too have a terrible Star Trek opinion. I don't think A Night in Sickbay is that bad an episode.

TNG S7 isn't as bad as is sometimes repeated. Sure it has sub rosa but it also has Gambit and that finale. Also, Emergence is a good episode and so is the one with the native Americans. If they'd kept going with it it would have continued to be fine. They should just have made that show forever like ER. drat cast contracts. Edit: And it has parallels and the Pegasus. It's a good season. Ogmius815 fucked around with this message at 16:44 on Aug 7, 2016 |

OneThousandMonkeys posted:Generations just really underwhelming, and First Contact, in the words of RLM, is "the 3,967th worst movie ever made." As in, it's serviceable as a dumb action movie but the script is hilariously terrible. It's more or less a guilty pleasure, whereas the rest are just guilty. See some of this is legitimate criticism. But so much of it is just pedantic nitpicking.

Strange Matter posted:The Thaw is a significantly worse episode than Threshold. Threshold is at least gripping in its stupidity. The Thaw is just brain numbing. What's it like to be so shockingly, painfully wrong? The Thaw is a great, unique episode. You can feel the sense of dread from the second they find the device. Absolutely nothing about t is cliche. It has great guest acting. It's legitimately spooky right up until the last shot of the episode.

I want to like TAS, but I just can't get past how bad some of the voice acting is. Pretty much all non-main characters are crap.

I think The Outrageous Okona is the second worst episode of TNG. But unlike the worst episode, Code of Honor, it has some redeeming value and you should watch it once. Edit: Actually shades of grey might be worse too. Ogmius815 fucked around with this message at 21:07 on Aug 10, 2016 |

Am I alone in having basically no hope that this new series is any good or that it lasts longer than a few episodes?

Kazinsal posted:Which is then followed by Family, which is one-third about Wesley's dead dad, one third about Worf understanding human culture as well as he understands Klingon culture, and one third about Picard's lovely brother. One of the dumbest things about Generations is that it kills off Picard's family from that episode. Generations was all about killing characters terribly I guess. Edit: what movies was loving Will Wheaton going to do at that point anyway? He didn't grow up that well.

TOS era means they don't need to really invent anything or come up with cool new technologies. gently caress since it's the prime timeline they don't even need to introduce tech from nu-Spock. Wait.

Enterprise seasons 3 and 4 are better than any season of Voyager and as good as much of TNG though. The worst thing about ENT is the extent to which certain regular characters were underutilized. Particularly Mayweather. I guess no one wanted to write for him because they never did anything interesting with him at all. In fact this goes to a lesser extent for all the characters other than Trip, Archer, and T'Pol. Ogmius815 fucked around with this message at 06:44 on Aug 17, 2016 |

Big Mean Jerk posted:Hey now, why show his historic speech when we have this expensive CGI Enterprise flyover to show you? This is the main thing that was wrong with the episode. I think the TNG framing is fine and it's nice to see Riker again. I know I'm seriously in the minority here but I just didn't hate These Are the Voyages... that much. Even Trip dying is in principle fine, although the actual scene where it happens is kind of poor. But jeez at least write part of the speech.

Baronjutter posted:They admit season 1 dax and season 1 bashir needed some work. In fact the studio demanded Siddig be fired after season 1 but they circled the wagons and protected him. They then gave dax more adventure and her klingon stuff in an attempt to have her do anything. I'm really glad they didn't fire Siddiq. I really think Bashir had the most character development of anyone in the series.
