Honestly I'm just upset they had an "Emergency Combat Hologram" and didn't bring in Robert Picardo for the role

He didn't gently caress up the opening monologue, the ship looks great, the theme music works for me, and overall it gives the impression that they're leaning into the "big weird space adventures" thing, which is exactly what they should be doing. Of course, we've seen almost nothing and there are plenty of ways this whole thing could crash and burn horribly. But so far... I like what I see.

I'm getting flashbacks to the nineties. Not because it seems like good old Trek, but because we would get episodes in the UK a year and a half after they came out in the USA.

I like that now it's canon that Pike and Picard used "to go where no one has gone before" and it makes Kirk's "where no man has gone before" line look like a temporary and local change indicating a hostile work environment.

One thing Trek has a long time been missing is that Federation space installations should basically be marvels, so that little shot of the Enterprise flying by Starbase 01 which now has nature domes, thumbs up

The Chairman posted:was about to post "theme doesn't have enough theremin" and then that last tag hit Lost in Space and Picard did it and I am not a fan. EDIT: Speaking of the new song as well, I think it's just a generic noodling about of notes, nothing special. For as much as I despise Picard, I admit that its main theme is really great (and in a better show would be making me emotional every time it gets used in a scene).

Having Robert Picardo pop up in his oldschool medical outfit holding a sword would've been perfect. Doubly so if it was the tiny version of him.

No, no, no. You see, there's going to be a series set between SNW and TOS where an all-woman crew travels to every planet that Kirk eventually visits.

I just want standard episodic content at this point. Every overarching season narrative since discovery debuted have been dismal failures and it needs to stop.

I guess the one takeaway from the new treks is they know they're doing something wrong. The fact strange new worlds is here and the fact that discovery has effectively rebooted itself TWICE says a lot.

Archer also used "no man", so I guess there's been a bit of back-and-forth.

Clearly Seven was rejected from Starfleet as part of some weird test, like when they have you kill Geordi or do the Kobayashi Maru. The idea was that they reject her, she comes back with renewed fervor about joining, they let her in, but Seven just took the rejection at face value and decided to join the space scouts or whatever the gently caress

I still don't see what's so great to look forward to. Fake edit: and the Trek overton window never moved for me, DS9 is still the peak and Voy/Ent have never been rehabilitated in my eyes. THERE, ARE, FOUR, LIGHTS

lol Also at the end, going to warp INSIDE a star system? (To take a quote from a DS9 episode that never really earns that line because it doesn't make sense with what we've seen throughout the various series.) All in all I like it like most people here seem to.

ashpanash posted:lol That quote just makes me think of that TNG episode where the Enterprise drops out of warp directly above a planet for 1 second to transport and then jumps back to high warp immediately before the transport is fully done to not waste any time going somewhere else lol.

I am oddly non-excited by SNW. Kinda feels like a step backwards to appease people whose brains have been broken by the franchise trying new things. Depends on the stories they tell, though. Intro was pretty if sort of boring. Come on, it’s the sixties throwback, get in my face a little.

I still don't see what's so great to look forward to. While I actually really like Enterprise and think Voyager is perfectly ok, I still agree with your take on the intro. However added Faith of the Heart did get me to at least chuckle with how well it synced. Drink-Mix Man posted:I am oddly non-excited by SNW.

It won't even appease people like me, because the ship is wrong, the interiors are wrong, we don't want a prequel retreading TOS, which we actually like, we want something new that doesn't depend on legacy characters. (Set after TNG, ignore the Romulan poo poo, give me TNGNG)

Best case scenario is that it's The Mandalorian-style backwards-stepping brain balm for angry minds, and not The Rise of Skywalker-style backwards-stepping brain balm for angry minds. We'll soon see, won't we?
