  • Star Trek: DS9 Was "Never Going To Go Into A Movie" Says Kira Actor

    Jump

  • However what I don't think is justified is the label as one of the worst Star Trek episodes. Is it nuts? Yes. Is it annoying that they have the technology to bring everyone back to Earth and simply de-lizard them after the trip, and then it's never brought up again? Also yes.

    But it's nowhere near the worst episodes because it's neither offending and un-Star Trek (like TNG's Code of Honor) nor is it boring. It's actually pretty entertaining for the first 35 or so minutes. It just goes off the rails at the end.

  • I think you're not too far off.

    Here is an excerpt from The Fifty Year Mission (book 2) by Mark A. Altman and Edward Gross. I highly recommend those books. They are super insightful about the behind-the-scenes stuff from the first 50 years of Star Trek.

  • I mean, DS9 wasn't as popular as TNG back then – both in terms of ratings and fan reception. Many considered it the black sheep of the Trek family. Berman focused on Voyager. So it was chrystal clear to every fan with even half a brain that DS9 would never get a movie. Perhaps Voyager had a tiny chance but by the time it concluded its run viewership had been in steady decline, and then Nemesis tanked.

  • Ich muss im Moment Microsoft Edge nutzen und finde es eigentlich ganz interessant die Nachrichten auf der Startseite zu lesen.

    Muss im Büro auch Edge benutzen. Habe die "Nachrichten" auf der Startseite deaktiviert, weil ich schon von den Überschriften Augenkrebs bekomme.

    Gerade mal wieder spaßeshalber aktiviert; das hier ist heute im Angebot:

    • "Känguru hält Hund als Geisel: Herrchen liefert sich Kampf mit Beuteltier!"

  • Friendly reminder that the initial fan reaction before TNG aired was very negative.

    And look how that eventually turned out.

    Give the new show a chance before condemning it.

  • What would you rate Discovery from 1 to 10 and why (please explain your score)? 1 being the worst score and 10 being the best score

    Jump

  • I'm not good with scores so I'll just explain how I rate Discovery.

    Back in the 90s/00s I never understood the hate that some Trek fans had towards a new Trek series. Every time a new series premiered there was a large (or at least very loud) chunk of the fanbase hating on the new series. I liked them all. Some more, some less. But I enjoyed them all for being Star Trek and watched them all countless times. (same goes for LD and SNW)

    To put that in perspective:

    1. I still don't remember the names of all the bridge officers on Discovery.
    2. I only watch Discovery episodes once.

    I never felt inclined to rewatch a single episode. It's not that all of them are bad but there's just nothing about them that makes me rewatch them. Especially since 90% of them are embedded in season-long story arcs. (same with Picard, although I do plan to rewatch season 1 and 3 at some point)

    At first I liked Discovery for trying something new. I'm not one of those fans who wants a new Trek show to do exactly the same thing that other Trek shows have done before. You need to do new things if you want to keep a franchise alive. But when you do season-long story arcs you need a plan. And Discovery didn't have that. It was quite obvious both in seasons 1 and 2. Season 2 was at least helped by Captain Pike. It's hard to rate those two seasons because there were so many ups and downs. But in total I'd say the first two season were better than the 3rd and 4th seasons.

    Season 3 was a chore to watch. Jumping to the future was like jumping the shark for me. There's not nearly enough world-building to make that future interesting -- and how can there be, when there's only 13 episodes and all of them are part of a story arc.

    Season 4 was okay. I give them credit for doing something big with non-humanoid and really strange aliens. But this story could have been told in the 23rd century with minimal changes. So why again are they in the future?

    In short: Discovery is okay-ish but nothing more.

    I currently pay ~5 € per month for F1TV (65€ per year). It's unlikely that it stays that cheap with AppleTV.

  • Tja, nur leider ist die Mehrheit aber trotzdem leicht dümmlich und wählt trotzdem Parteien, die das Gegenteil wollen (und es auch mehr oder weniger offen sagen).

    Weil wir keine "single issue" Parteien haben, wählen Leute halt die Partei, die unter anderem das Thema vertreten, das ihnen am allerwichtigsten ist. Der Nebeneffekt ist, dass diese Partei auch Dinge vertritt, mit denen man u.U. nicht übereinstimmt – ggf. auch Dinge, die einem wichtig sind.
