The thing about nu trek lacking professionalism is exactly why it doesn't hit the same as old trek imo, like the defining trait of Picard is he's a huge stiff and it's weird when he opens up (the scene of him singing a shanty in the lounge leading everyone to be suspicious comes to mind), or Sisko being a hard rear end you don't want to piss off. It makes the scenes of them opening up all the more enjoyable, like Picard's archaeology vacation or scenes with Sisko and Jake. When the whole crew goofs around there's no separation of those moments anymore

The Star Wars sequels suffered a similar lack of professionalism. You can believe the OT Rebels have their poo poo together enough to win a war, the Sequel yahoos act more like Occupy and are just as effective.

Fat-Lip-Sum-41.mp3 posted:i was done by the end of season 3. "jahr null" was such a complete misapprehension of american history and culture. the very assertion that american culture is inherently anti-fascist paves the way to fascism. you might find this interesting i posted the full text of it in the modern history thread if youd rather read it on the somethingawful app for some reason https://redsails.org/the-international-origins-of-nazism/

Not much to say about it at this point. Plus a lot of the internet fandom crowd hates Whedon now.

You can believe the OT Rebels have their poo poo together enough to win a war, the Sequel yahoos act more like Occupy and are just as effective. Never considered this but it's totally true, anything involving the Hoth command staff or briefing scenes in ESB is a perfect example. Leia sounds like a military officer and not a school teacher giving gym class instruction like stuff from the sequels. I feel like they're better about letting nameless background characters pipe up too, so it feels like there's a lot more going on than the same ten people you see in other scenes standing around a hologram talking to each other. I could be way off base, I saw the sequels once when they came out and never again.

I think firefly has interesting aesthetics and a couple good episode. Overall it isn't very good.

A lot of writers these days can only write in one voice. Presumably anyone with talent is too busy trying to make ends meet and doesn't have time to infiltrate Hollywood

gradenko_2000 posted:Tonight I watched The Moon, a South Korean film about an ROK manned moon landing mission how did you have access to it? from an actual theater or just on demand? i ask because while this movie is technically available to watch in the united states as of yesterday in maybe a couple of dozen random selected movie theaters the fact that youve even heard of it implies to me that it got a more consistent form of distribution in the philippines

speng31b posted:last voyage of the demeter kicks rear end It looks dope but theaters are an incredibly tough sell for me these days. Will have to remember to find it on streaming later. Agreed that this was one of the best parts of the Dracula book.

I could be way off base, I saw the sequels once when they came out and never again. For some reason this made me think of all of the named actors who had cameos as Resistance no-names in the sequel trilogy, and how jarring it was to have any one of them on camera trying to pass for an extra. I'm thinking of Dom Mongaham's (sp? Charlie from LOST/Merry from LOTR) one line in Rise of Skywalker in particular.
