Applewhite posted:Romulan Spy: "Computer, I need you to identify a planet with two red moons and constant electrical storms." I don't understand what makes them think there are constant electrical storms. Isn't she just having one dream about one specific time? What if it was just a stormy night?

I agree, this one was OK. If it were like episode 4 instead of 8, I'd probably think we were headed for something decent.

I bet they'll do HD/4K versions within a few years, they'll just be AI upscales rather than remasters. Better than nothing.

Origami Dali posted:Shooting on film, converting it all to tape, and doing the final edit from the taped footage is the dumbest process. I get it, it streamlined editing for shows that needed a fast turnover, and editing film was far more laborious and costly. And shows were only expected to ever be seen on low res televisions anyway, so sure why not? But because of it being so shortsighted, it pretty much hosed a lot of shows from ever seeing the light of day in their original 35mm quality due to the insane cost to scan the film and re-edit everything, if the film still exists at all. The first show to ever use that process was the 80's Twilight Zone revival, and they just tossed out the film reels after they converted to tape for editing, so it will always look like rear end. So stupid. Hypothetically, if they decided to finish everything on film, the extra cost would have had to come from other places in production, leading to far less ambitious shows. Even then, the effects would have been finished at 80s-90s TV picture quality, meaning at best we would have really sharp picture with crappy effects and/or blurrier shots every time they had to composite the image like in TOS. I think it is much more likely that they would have chosen to shoot on tape to begin with rather than go through that, and then it would look even worse than it does now.
