I wouldn’t be surprised if Fox greenlights an all female X-Men film first.

I highly doubt that the MCU is nearly as planned out as people think. Look at how fast they were able to change things when they got Spider-Man. They immediately slotted a Spider-Man film in and pushed Black Panther and Captain Marvel back.

Except that wasn’t my point at all. I never said that you can’t enjoy Star Trek because of its continuity errors. My point was that Star Trek was always full of continuity errors and retcons so it’s pointless to criticize all the continuity problems in Discovery since there’s no real firm continuity in the franchise.

The pacing of the movie is weird. It feels like two movies crammed into one. It really has that “Weekend of Ultron” feel. Maybe the first half should have been cut down to make more room for the second half.

The show was a really pleasant surprise. I love how things start out like a generic sitcom and just immediately goes into horror movie levels of gore. The way the characters try to play all the deaths and insanity off in a cheesy sitcom way is just delightful.

Republicans are just doing what they do best, blaming the problem on an already persecuted and underserved minority group who are actually disproportionately the victims of the problem rather than the perpetrators.

So green light is venom, isn’t it? And I’m guessing their version of Iran-Contra involved Santa Prisca instead of Nicaragua.

“Kling” was referred to as the Klingon homeworld in “Heart of Glory.” The Star Trek Encyclopedia says that they changed the name because they thought “Kling” sounded silly.

If you treat “Conspiracy” with even half the scrutiny as people have treated Discovery, it would not hold up at all.

The warp speed errors isn’t a small continuity since it’s the basis of an entire Star Trek show. Voyager’s whole premise is dependent on how fast ships can travel.

The Prime Directive isn’t about social justice. It’s about not interfering with the development of other cultures.

Except the TOS Klingons looked like humans, they were just humans that looked like stereotypical Mongols influenced by the Yellow Peril. Their decor and fashion were based on those stereotypes. They were given behavioral and speech patterns based on those stereotypes.

How exactly did they do that? The Klingons aren’t representative of any real human ethnicity. They also aren’t in blackface like in TOS. T’Kuvma was played by a black actor.

They did it for the 23rd century, not the 22nd. Discovery made the retcon that Kirk’s era wasn’t as sexist as TOS depicted it. How is that not a positive change for the franchise?

It’s fucking Star Trek. It’s the poster child for SJW shows. The whole franchise has been making social and political statements from the very beginning when they decided to have a multi-cultural cast and deal with issues like the Vietnam War, racism, the Cold War, etc.

Yup, Discovery hasn’t taken the narrative forward at all. It’s not like Discovery got rid of TOS’s idea that women can’t be captains or the general misogyny of that show.

I know it’s hard to review a Star Trek show without being influenced by the franchise’s long history. But we also tend to focus on the best episodes of previous Treks. For good reason, the best episodes are the most memorable. But fans have to stop acting like every other episode of Trek was a “Balance of Terror” or…

Starfleet endorsed the genocide of the Borg when it wasn’t losing a protracted war.

Yeah, why is she supporting a war criminal?

Michael Bay’s Lobo movie will be set on earth and be about random human characters no one gives a crap about. Lobo will show up at the end to drink some bud light and say “bastich.”
