I’m not about to replay it but it was a pretty good campaign. It was everything that wasn’t the campaign that were more the problem.
If you suspect malice, make sure it isn’t ignorance/carelessness first. They are different problems that require different responses.
What, no stealth games, like Metal Gear Solid? The whole point is to hide from enemies who are seeking you out (to kill you).
That was definitely my favorite The Dog scene - just the way the cube keep trundling on and you can somehow sense it’s in that happy way that dogs do despite just being a cube.
It’s a cuddly little ball of sweet Lovecraftian techno-horror with bats for eyeballs.
I think The Dog is the weirdest thing the show has done so far, and I love it. The turning to a cube and suddenly talking at the end just were so wonderfully surreal.
Good little The Dog...
There really need to be people to look after what Tendi and Rutherford are up to, those two are one bored sunday away from inventing another Borg.
Honestly, instead of Rey Nobody, they should have gone with Rey Everybody. A clone made from the genetic samples of Palpatine, Obi-Wan, Count Dooku, Anakin, Qui-Gon (basically every human force user if we want to stick with the Palpatine was a racist thing).
Snoke or someone continues the experiments after Palpatine’s…
No. It’s 100% on point. The films are often too focused on pew-pew space battles and big-budget VFX...often to the detriment of what makes Star Trek, well, Star Trek — exploration, character relations, the human condition, etc, etc.
Star Trek has never been particularly successful as a film franchise. Oh, it’s had a few hits, but adjusting on its ratio for hits and misses, well, they’ve been at their best when they’ve been at their lowest budgets. (TWOK famously shot on roughly a TV production budget)
That scene was so magnificent, not just what was said, but what wasn’t expressed. Picard had to have known the instant Seven asked about the weapons what was about to happen, and it added such an awesome layer to the interaction. I also feel that it really managed to hit on the fact that trauma like that never just…
Science Fiction is already setting aside nearly all pretense of realism. Why must the only one they maintain be the “People are dicks” aspect? The answer is simple: Lazy-ass writing. I think Gene’s vision was aspirational, and whether it’s realistic or not is completely irrelevant.
The avoidance of drama for the core characters was an EXCELLENT device. It kept a focus on the science and forced writers to be more creative instead of relying on bad dramatic tropes. This moment is an exception that proves the rule. It was an EARNED moment. One only needs to look at Star Trek 2: Wrath of Khan v.…
The scene in question and probably the best scene of the entire show (Romulan murder mom and dad exempted):
I find it incredibly hard to believe he got through all of Speed without a single “woah”.
Best two out of three?
In the comics, Pym keeps a damn arsenal for the Avengers micronized, so that people like Hawkeye can refresh whatever they need. Later on, he works out a quiver and a utility belt bandoliet just for Clint. Clint sports it when he’s Ronin also, it’s where he draws out his nunchaku and replacement shrunken for Patriot…
Whenever he’s offscreen he’s running around picking them back up :P
