Just watched Enterprise "Cogenitor" and what a dogshit episode that was. "This person has just had their first taste of freedom, but we have to send them back into slavery. Oh, they killed themself? That's your fault for teaching them to read."

TOS: Wolf in the fold. Jack the Ripper was a space-ghost, lmao. e: come to think of it, TOS loved a good ethereal fog-monster. What was that about? Pondex fucked around with this message at 13:32 on Mar 5, 2021 |

Applewhite posted:In my more paranoid moments, I honestly suspect nu-trek is a deliberate attempt to sabotage the good that Trek does. It's like our neolib/ post-9/11 world order makes everything grim and kind of lovely. Which is reflected in our entertainment. And the two are in an interdependent relationship.

Neddy Seagoon posted:Jesus I'd forgotten all about Cogenitor; And someone chose that ending for the episode. They could just as easily have gone: "Slavery, huh? Hadn't thought of it like that. I guess we still have a lot to learn. Anyway, bon voyage Enterprise!" Their captain even read all of Shakespeare and thought it was cool. Was there really no MLK or Frederick Douglass in Enterprise's computer?

PostNouveau posted:All the new series are. Discovery less so, but Picard's characters are barely characters so all they have are quips. I feel like that style of dialog is going to seem real campy one day. The same way the original show is a bit dorky in its earnestness.

They played the federation like a fiddle. The writers could have delved deeper into that. Also, there was something really unwholesome about the torturer bringing a thermos (cardassian space-thermos) with him to work. e: not to mention bringing his kid. He was almost sucking up to Picard in a weird way in the end.
