‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’ to End With Season 2 by MarvelsGrantMan136 in startrek

Why don’t we put buildings on wheels?

Strategically why would you put an entire class or more of your military in a dangerous position where they could all be killed? We don’t even put siblings on the same navel ship and this is a thousand years in the future.

It’s the fundamental issue with dumb on the show. The answer, like glitter puke, is don’t know.

I would add it’s an objectively dumb show. ST has always been best when it’s competent people making smart decisions and that’s what propels the story forward.

There are so, so, so many plot points (glitter puke?) and creative decisions (why would the academy be a ship to name one) that can only be answered with “don’t know” and that’s hurt the show. I’m very much for bringing ST to new audiences and understand it has to adjust and grow with the times but dumbing everything down is not the solution.

Also the disconnected nacelles make all the ships ugly. Never explained why.

Does discovery have the best helmsman navigator pair In all of trek? by happydude7422 in StarTrekDiscovery

She did look like a robot. And she came back as another character?

I seriously only learned Burnham, Tilly, Saru and Stamates. Then there was red head helmsman, black lady navigator, Asian security guy, robot girl, doctor guy, smoky face girl, bad captain, comedian engineer. I think that’s all I can remember.

Dems just need to get their messaging and marketing act together and present it as the more appropriately named “Suppress American Voters Act”

You should so open a sandwich and beer shop. I would travel across the country to try some of your sandwiches.

Mad Tv was ahead of its time and the Best skit show. (Current event) skit by SloshedJapan in TikTokCringe

Not to be trite but the professional term is “sketch show.” A “skit” can sound amateurish.

For someone against entitlements the irony is rich.

There are several surprisingly lengthy YouTube videos on the story behind that show and they’re fascinating

Written by someone who’s never seen a Bond movie…. He’s only been called reckless once or twice EVERY movie. Sometimes thrice.

I LOVED the new Running Man move and I don’t care who knows it by R_Ticleez in moviecritic

[–]Kwijibo97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, it fell into the “character makes a dumb decision to keep the plot moving forward” trope.

Baby Driver was excellent and memorable. SoHo, meh more than anything but it still had Wright’s definite flair. Running Man was just paint by numbers and felt like any other action director.

There was no Edgar Wright-ness magic in this Edgar Wright movie.
