The Cerito’s ‘Nope’ and immediate exit when it arrives at the Borg battle in the intro always makes me laugh , every time.

good riddance.
Not to mention that 5 seasons in, I still don’t know over half the character’s names or even what their job descriptions are.
Hell, I can only infer that “black lady who turned out to be good at punching in that one episode” is some sort of tactical officer. “White lady who isn’t the one with the punk haircut who…
They somehow distilled the essence of a great Star Trek intro and added a space blob nibbling on the Cerritos’s warp nacelle XD
To be honest, Good. Discovery has been wildly uneven, with shoddy plotting, inconsistent characterization and an all too casual relationship with wider Star Trek canon. It’s been a series of squandered opportunities and wasted ideas. I won’t miss Michael Burnham much, especially now as we have Pike’s Enterprise, the…
The reason why most of the former Twitter employees were cheering on her firing was due to the amount of disrespect she showed with that “sleep where you work” tweet. The original saying - “Love Where You Work” - came from the heart and mind of Lucy Mosley, who was one folks in the London office. She passed away from…
I wouldn’t criticize Crawford for her choice overextend herself for her job.
Those who jeer & mock are necessarily on the sidelines and not in the arena
I would be entirely happy with a regular non-mirror Star Trek with Captain Georgiou, pre-ST:Discovery. Get a good supporting cast around Michelle Yeoh, a good showrunner, and some good stories — even episodic ala SNW would likely work just fine — and you might have something special again.
There’s so much awful in that film. The two worst that stand out to me is the Enterprise falling out of orbit from the Moon to crash into the Earth because the engines turn off in the space of about four minutes, and taking one of the most iconic and moving scenes in all of Trek (Spock’s death), and doing a role-revers…
Into Darkness tried to leach off the work that The Wrath of Khan did while doing none of it itself (the reveal of Khan depended totally on knowing the first film). JJ’s attempts at lying about Cumberbatch not being Khan were so terrible no one believed him.
Because she parlayed looking attractive on camera with no other discernable skills into marrying into the British Royal Family
I hope Netflix learns something from this. I guarantee they wouldn’t have seen this kind of boost of the whole season had been dropped at once. When you can only consume a show one week at a time, you have a week to talk about what just happened and speculate about what’s going to happen next. On the other hand, when…
Is it really an absurd casting choice to have a known and excellent character actress play such a part?
I’m sure all of the storyline purists who were upset that Sara was not white in the premiere, and that last week’s episode strayed from the story in the game to focus on Bill’s same sex relationship, are equally upset this week that they strayed from the game again and moved the story from Pittsburgh to Kansas Citu,…
“I don’t know if Joel and Ellie were ambushed by those guys. They seemed genuinely angry that Joel was firing on them; I think he started it.”
AND that’s the difference between plot-based and character-based storytelling.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll guess I’ll say it again. The whole show is gonna be “filler” until the season finale. There’s no complex and evolving plot to set aside. Joel and Ellie head off in search of the Fireflies, they eventually find the Fireflies — that’s the whole season, nothing in between matters.
I thought that was just a deliberate bait-and-switch, right down to the fact that at first you can’t quite see who is in the wheelchair and the first voice you hear is Frank saying “Bill..?” almost implying that it’s Bill in the chair. I think something between those scenes would negate that jarring shock and lessen…
...you can just hear the alt-right grifters salivating at their viewcounts for the next week, after they get off their requisite “LAST OF US WENT WOKE” youtube nonsense...
