Thank you for this: "but dammit, if they're going to make something completely foreign to the basic premise and feel of the series*

All my fears are realized. Funny for Simon Pegg's handwaiving that this would be more Trekky I don't think I've read a single review that indicates this to be the case, and in fact indicates that this franchise in name only has jettisoned pretty much everything that defined trek outside of character and vehicle names.…

I think its less likely and they will blame Suzanne and the other guards. It will be easy to villanize Piscatella.

MCC, sorry misremembered the name, already proved it was going to be nigh impossible to villainize Poussey. I think the only thing MCC can do is possibly blame Suzanne but that still opens up a can of worms about their psycheward and why Suzanne was in genpop.

That wiki says its not preferred but why its not isn't really in there.

But it doesn't protect itself because the "system" wanted to turn Bailey into a villain, to sweep it all under the rug. Defending Bailey makes it much more complicated.

>That the system will always protect itself.

This writer completely omits that the driving factor for Caputo at the end defending Bailey is that MCC wanted to completely scapegoat Bailey and try and turn this into an isolated incident further sweeping under the table the horribleness of the for profit prison system. If he had done what the prisoners wanted and…

Here's the scary thing if Piscatella had been the one trying to handle Suzanne then Poussey would probably still be alive, this is because he knows how to physically handle somebody. In fact the other "evil" guards would have likely been able to physically handle the situation Baley was in but his lack of physical…

I can't think of a greater indication that the studio has no faith in this film. Rather than marketing the film they are trying to market a Rihanna single. It feels like a series that has given up on any kind of identity. People defending this have lost their mind, if something like Star Wars which is one of the most…

Thank you that movie is bad, real bad. Not V bad but still pretty bad.

I don't see how? This song sounds just as dated as that the as soon as I heard it. Not to mention Rihanna and Star Trek go together like cookies and asshole sweat.

But they were still Star Trek for bad or for worse, this movie series seems to have lost all sense of identity in an effort to appeal to the lowest common denominator. Its a shiny skin on something that is airless, and focus tested to the point of having absolutely no heart.

Do you really think it would be that shocking if people would be pissed if they did this to Star Wars?

Yeah its not Rhaegar she was worried about its Robert. She cleary says that I really don't know why the show was being obscure about it. Robert has the motive to kill Jon, not Rhaegar.

>Ned that he—meaning Rhaegar—“must not find out,” and what sounds like Jon’s true name

The arguments that the Browncoats make are pretty much the same arguments the South made sans slavery. Basically leave us alone, colony rights, let us do what we want, even if those things are horrible.

I'm referring to the reboot franchise we are now 2 for 3 for ship destruction.

>Browncoats forever.

Like, do they have to destroy the Enterprise in every, damn, movie? I feel like starfleet would retire the name out of superstition at this point. Like naming another ship Enterprise is just asking for trouble.
