I'm late to the party on this but I watched an episode of Star Trek for the first time ever (TNG, The Defector) and I'm just absolutely blown away. The episode was smart, tense, well acted. It was QUIET. Scenes had time to breathe. There was SUBTLETY. The characters were all professional and acted like they would in a real military organization. I was BORING and I liked it. I've seen commercials for newer ST shows and it's all YELLING and SHOOTING. The only dumb thing in the episode was that they didn't search the Romulan guy and find his suicide pill he had on him. I feel like in real life the first thing they would have done is at least go through his pockets, damn. Is all retro Star Trek this good?
>>217063167absolutely nobody would have watched a season of TNG without Piccard
>>217063293isnt that that just how tv shows work thopeople dont watch star trek to see troi sense impending mindrape but to see picard say make it sowhich isnt to say the other characters dont have their fans or justificaitons for exisiting it just strikes me as weird to complain about a show focussing/advertising its popular characters
>>217063087NTA, but dude. I agree with you on Farpoint - though he said *one of* the best - but the first two seasons aren't that bad, and are sprinkled with some genuinely good eps. And if OP gets into TNG, he's going to wind up watching them anyway. It's not as if there's an infinite amount of (actual) Star Trek content out there, and he's not going to have the time. There's a lot, but nothing at all after ENT.I'd add to OP (if you're serious):1. Don't listen to any posters who insist *any* nutrek (Trek made post-ENT) is good. It's all shit and woke in a way previous (actual) Trek never was.2. You'll hear it argued that the Trek formula which you partly touched on (problem-solving/exploration of moral dilemmas by likeable professionals, with mostly slow pacing and an optimistic tone) had grown stale by the early 00s. This is probably true, so a shake-up was warranted. It doesn't justify what they did, though. There were countless ways they could have reinvigorated the franchise, but they chose instead to turn it into what you described - yelling and shooting - plus crying and woke lecturing.
>>217063393No one? We got 7 seasons of the guy, I can live with him leaving. The show was huge and they could make a big storyline about Picard existing. I think that TNG should have been America's "Dr. Who" where they just recast a new Captain every 5-7 seasons to pilot the USS Enterprise. I would have been fine with Janeway taking over as long as the writing was good. Katherine Mulligan was fine, just let down by some of Voyager's questionable writing at times. >>217063435>>217063393Because the money isn't spent on the most popular actors with the most focus, it's set up as two stars and some supporting cast. The cast budget was the big driving force to ending the show at S7 as everyone was asking for more money.

I said that it was an IT rip off, but i wasn't hating on it. I tried to like it, i really did. 1st season into a couple episodes of 2. But, it seems to have made a huge impact, and people are still losing their shit over the ending.
>>217062490That explains that Netflix merch store description for hoodies that said Vecna and MF are going to fight each other in the final battle lol - so these fags wasted everyone's time. When obviously Dustin's original Vecna = 5 star general theory was the slam dunk>your evil overlord is a monster, so inhuman 'strange' (heh) stuff drives the plot>but the more physical active on screen villain is a human so the evil faction has someone that can talk to, taunt, etc the main charactersP.S. Vecna didn't even need to be redeemed in the sense of turning good but literally having a huge 'N-no! I AM IN CHARGE HERE!' tantrum upon discovering the truth, so even in their original Vecna = redeemed approach they seem to only conceive of stuff in terms of he is ebil or becomes good suddenly
A group of kids killing huge monsters in contrived ways is what D&D is all about.
If a half dozen kids with pea shooters could kill it in 10 minutes the military would have insta gibbed the spider

What was your main issue with season 5?
Not enough Erica
>>217060414that it makes season 4 look like prestige TV
>>2170604141.) They just had Nancy just be Ripley with no build up at all.2.) Robin did the coming out scene better with Steve and it was just uninspired to make another character an lgbtpedofile.3.) Muh illusions bullshit. Fuck off Ell is dead and Mike is copeium. 4.) Everyone including Harper who lost a second daughter got over it off screen except for Mike who was sad but also copium muh illusions bullshit. Ell could use her powers because she was in another fucking dimension where the sound machines weren't.

There's some trends I've noticed. Stars is always the 7 pointed one. Dots is always 4. Shapes, if there's a star, that's it. "Most empty boxes", always follows a pattern of numbers being between x and x+2. so if you see such a difference, you know it's the higher one. Also, if there's a 6, it's always it.

>I was in Myanmar
Alfred: A long time ago I was in Burma. My friends and I were working for the local caravan in a forest North of Rangoon. They were trying to buy the loyalty of bandits by bribing them with a tangerine. But their government was being raided by a child. So we went looking for the child. But in six months we never met anybody. One day I saw a tribal leader playing with a tangerine the size of a ruby. The child had been a bandit throwing them away.A long time ago, when I was in Burma, in the forest North of Rangoon. My friends and I burned the forest down.Some men aren't looking for anything logical, like a tangerine. Some men just want to watch the forest burn.Bruce: The bandit, in the forest of Burma, did you catch him?Alfred: Yes. We burned the child.
>>217049818>remember Vietnam like it was yesterday Mr. Wayne. I remember that village in Tainan that we cut down. It was a massacre. All the dead Chinamen we left in our tracks. I remember the faces, the children. There was one child I'll never forget. Poor little bastard was still alive. His little Chinese legs were blown clean off. I still see his little shins & feet hanging from the ceiling fan across the hut. He was charred from his head down to his little Chinese knees. He tried to get up, but he fell over when what was left of his right leg broke off. As he laid there, flat on his face, he looked up at me. His little Chinese eyes burned right into my stomach, deep into my soul. He said something to me in Chinese, 'Boo coo sow!', he sounded like a cartoon Mr. Wayne. But I understood it to be a question that he was asking me. And I don't have to know how to speak Chinese to know what that question was. 'Why, Alfred Pennyworth? Why?'

>>217055129He literally used Thomism in his cinema. Being instead of acting, viz. models vs actors. I am who am, He who is. You want to feel good and be entertained, but Bresson gives you suffering. Oh, no, poor you. That is literally our world. Perhaps he never admitted to being Catholic, but his cinema certainly is. Stop talking about good directors when you clearly lack the erudition to do so. Stick to Asian weeb cinema: 3 to 4 hours of nothing. You might get to see some weeb boobs. Yay!!
