“William Shatner achieved success and fame on par with Fred Dryer!”

Shatner can what now? It’s been a while since a comment has made me laugh like that. Take my star for the laugh.

I think they didn’t really impact it outside of the visuals (which, I will argue, are terrible. They would have been much better off with Discovery doing something more retro futuristic that would have fit in with TOS, while also hewing to a much more distinctive style. A lot of the nuTrek just feels like generic…

Huge Star Trek fan since birth. TNG and its era were my jam as a kid, but I like the Kelvin movies for what they are. While I love my morality plays and spatial anomalies, I think there’s room in the franchise for all kinds of stories and genres, including action movies, comedies, etc.

“In the end, we all turn into Admiral Kirk in TWOK.”

“And while I don’t think Neelix was as bad a character as everyone says”

Did a cat type this

I find it quite sad that this stale bit of celebrity gossip is what everyone chooses to run with when there was so much more interesting material in the original article. Of course some of the blame goes to Takei for allowing himself to be baited into talking about something that has been rehashed for decades instead…

George follows me on twitter and any RTs I get from his account sends a tweet stratospheric. I'd like to think he's actually seen them!

That doesn't mean they can't make for a great double feature! 

AV Club is more machine now than man.

We had pretty traditional fare. Turkey. Potatoes. All that. But we also had this really nice dish I’d never had before made from broccoli and cauliflower baked in a sort of cheese and creamer sauce. I don’t know what it was called, but it was a real standout I hope we have again next year.

To me, the early internet years will always be “nerds get mainstream acceptance, immediately shit the bed.”

I’d much rather watch a reality show about Gul Dukat, honestly. 

It took me a shamefully long time to get this joke.

The Bajorans know what they did.

This entire article is a self-negating puff of nothing. Question: who is this for anymore? Answer: It’s for them, not for the audience?

I think the only people living and breathing this shit are people who are way too fucking online.

Do you mean exacerbated rather than exasperated?

I’m just here to watch the entire page get gradually taken over by banner ads. I also like it when somebody shouts THE CALLISTO PROTOCOL at me, so it’s a total win/win.
