Karpaw posted:That was captivating like this show rarely is, largely because for once it wasn't paced for people with ADD and the guy playing Spock has more gravitas than Quinto ever did. The S31 stuff is still dumb though - the genocidal maniac from a parallell universe with no loyalty to the Federation is openly undermining our objectives for personal gain, maybe it was a mistake to recruit her and the Klingon sleeper agent? "I never thought the leopard would eat my face!" sobs man who invited face-eating leopard into his organization.

"But Spock never mentions her in TOS!" cry the same people who didn't care that there wasn't an NX-01 model on the wall in the D's conference room.

Hell, we knew that even before the first episode aired. I'm not sure why people were assuming that the horrible thing Michael did to Spock wasn't exactly what we saw on screen? I thought it was very clear from when she was talking to Amanda that she had said some pretty awful things to him to get him to stop following her. What did you people think she did, beat him or something?

counterfeitsaint posted:No, I was pretty sure this is what it was, and others were too. This is what I don't get, because they didn't? Like I said, I got the impression it was exactly what it was from jump; some really hateful words to a vulnerable and sensitive kid that were really wounding. I never thought the show was portraying it as more than that and am a bit confused why people did. As for Amanda's reaction, like, how would you feel if you were a mixed-race couple and found out your adopted white daughter called your son the n-word in an argument as a kid?

Episode was kind of hit or miss for me and we're definitely into the episodes that began production after they realized the first part of the season went wildly over budget, but Spock's "well yeah, Michael strapping on a time suit and flying off to try and right all of history's wrongs by herself without telling anyone is totally a thing she would do and we all know it" was pretty great.

Kind of surprised nobody's posted this yet, but they really did build a hallway set on a rig and spun it around, Inception-style, to film that fight scene. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lv2VLkGpXdM
