It's my favorite of them which I've rewatched though more than once. A tad dated, so I wonder if newly introduced folks would like it.

Of the live action, what have you enjoyed the most?

I know nothing of Academy, but I understand it's in the Discovery future. I kind of wish that arc brought them back to their time. That future is rough and... can scifi be too futuristic? Anyway, not sure if I will dig the Academy of that time, but can't knock it until I try it.

I kind of want to meet the new demographic that is into the latest Star Trek. As in, that's all they know and what they like best. I'm not sure that demographic is even formed yet, but I'm kind of curious how different they would be from the old Trek folks. What is it about the new track that they like versus the old.

@observantTrapezium@lemmy.ca @ValueSubtracted@startrek.website yes. devotion. alas, i will probably eventually watch it. even if only as a background show while I am doing something else. i hope it doesn’t hurt. 😬

prodigy however, i never finished it. i don’t know why, but my youngest didn’t dig it and then it went through the re-homing. i just sorta forgot about it. i think it’s time i give it a second go. i’ll force him to watch it because all kids should be properly indoctrinated with trek. ;-)

I will never begin to understand how and why execs make the decisions they do.

No idea if it was most popular, but i wouldn't have thought so. The humor seemed directed mostly towards existing fans. I cant imagine they brought in many new viewers. I'd love to be surprised though.

It certainly has its differences. I've really enjoyed SNW. Discovery had a lot of good, but plenty to counter balance it. I'm glad they wrapped it up because it really really needed to.

Now... this Section 31 movie? I watched the trailer. And... as much as I hate to say this because of how much I love Star Trek... I think I'm going to skip that one. Normally I watch everything out of devotion. Yep, that means watching some pretty bad stuff. I just don't know if this movie has any redeeming qualities though.

I love Yeoh, but I really don't like the Georgiou character much. And this movie takes place in the part of the Discovery timeline that I just didn't dig so much.

I don't know. Maybe.

I'd hate for there to be some Star Trek I didn't watch .

Ha! To which they will then melt in my arms and kiss me and tell me just how wonderful I am... only to then punch me in the arm and say... "now tell me what I can get you, dammit, or I will hurt you more!" 😁

So what do people classify as New Trek. Post Archer's Enterprise?

[–] GlassHalfHopeful@lemmy.ca 15 points 4 weeks ago

This one went over just as I hoped. Haha.

The world would certainly be different. Not going to comment further on that though... 😶‍🌫️

 

"Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Sunday that 31,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been killed in action in the two years since Russia launched its full-scale invasion.

"A U.S. intelligence report declassified in mid-December 2023 estimated that 315,000 Russian troops had been killed or wounded in Ukraine. If accurate, the figure would represent 87% of the roughly 360,000 troops Russia had before the war, according to the report."

I will never feel as though I fit in this world, a place where the so-called leaders of humanity callously throw away the lives of their own people--slaughtering the innocent along the way--in their own broken, vileness.

There is no goodness from such death.

We have the ability, today, to be so much more than we have ever been. We can realize the greatest of human potential. Yet we continue to choose death.

Had I only been born in a later age where I could spend my one life in an era that is extraordinarily glorious. Presuming of course that our species would survive itself to such a time.

Any idea why I am not seeing comments for any of the posts here?

When I click the "Last weeks thread" link and it opens in my web browser, I am then able to see the comments including my own...

I am one with the Force and the Force is with me.

 

Even more major than the current major sanctions...

 

Genuinely curious and ignorant about restitution from inmates who spend the read of their lives in prison.

How would he ever be able to pay 5M+ USD?
