I fucking love it. Seriously, it's so well done, the production quality is amazing and the actors are great.

First two eps are gash, after that it gets much betterererererer

Post by **Eraser** » Tue Oct 31, 2017 4:06 pm

Seen the first five eps so far, but meh. It all feels too contrived and forced to me.

I'm quite enjoying it. It's nice to see a Trek with a modern episode format instead of the staid old "Monster of the Week" thing.

Got to say, i didn't like the swearing.

Picard swore in Klingon too

2 'fucks' in the same scene with a pinch of 'shits' and now it's lock stock

What'd we think of the last few eps n all ?, for me it just keeps getting better. The Lorca eps were great with the character arcs and the last ep was lifted straight from a 'villain of the week' staple the old series were renowned for.

Yeah, I enjoyed it, even though it was a spin on a story trope that's been told many, many times before. I suspect we're going to see more of Mud, and I was especially pleased they didn't simply kill him off.

Lorca's a great character, and a very strong captain.
[spoiler]I particularly liked how he confirmed the admiral's suspicions about him by realising that leaving her captured was more advantageous to him.[/spoiler]

That's one stone cold motherfucker.

Searching PC for the word 'Galaxy' as I know it's somewhere here...

I found an oldie and a must see. Remember The Outer Limits TV series? My search found the episode The Galaxy Being and I had goosebumps in a moment watching.
Oh, and yes, I have Galaxy Quest so I will watch in the next day or two.

And I am... 26 minutes in and it is brilliant

lol Galaxy quest is awesome. I've been watching Orville and sadly it's not as funny...

Post by **Whiskey 7** » Sat Nov 04, 2017 11:36 pm

Just finished Galaxy Quest.

In one word brilliant and their 'entrance' in the ending minutes

so a simply must see.
9/10

Have you seen Staw Wars yet? That's good too...

I have never heard of Staw Wars and I am making little sense on a google search

My money is that it is a send up.

Re: Star Trek Discovery, I have yet to see an episode so ask, how's it going?

Oh, I found this interesting ... IMDB list of episodes

Post by **Whiskey 7** » Mon Nov 27, 2017 7:23 am

I have just watched episodes 1, 2 & 3.. Don't mind it at all.

I see on the Wiki currently only 9 episodes. Is it still going or has it been canned?

It's the mid season break, the rest will air at the beginning of Jan iirc, 7th maybe ?.

Season 2 already confirmed

.

Hey, you know what, I've seen episode 6 where
[spoiler]Burnham is going to save Sarek[/spoiler]
and episode 7 with
[spoiler]Mudd putting the Discovery in a timeloop[/spoiler]
and those episodes felt much more StarTrek-ey to me than any previous episode. There was a much bigger sense of various people cooperating against a common threat. There was actual problem solving. I liked these episodes much more than the others.

As for the swearing... I'm not noticing it... at all I mean. Have I been so desensitized to such thing that it's really no big deal anymore?
