Come on'n get your jamaharon on! There are no real rules—just don't break the weather control network.
The Cage is peak trek
Never accepted Kirk and those after as real trek
You better be referring to the original broadcast recorded to magnetic tape and not the abomination that is the DVD release
What about the option of the original black and white recording of ‘The Cage’ with the colour portions from ‘The Menagerie’ spliced in, as released to videotape in thr 80s?
That was the real Star Trek. Roddenberry even took it to cons in the 70s and 80s to let fans know what he really wanted to put on the air.
Good point. Everything after that is woke critical race theory DEI!
You're fooling yourself if you don't want to see the sharp decrease in quality post DS9. The best Trek series of the last 25 years is Orville ffs
I'd give strange new worlds a pass as being better than Orville, but yeah, it's definitely the exception to the rule.
Fair, Strange New Worlds is great
LOL I had a whole reply typed out before I realized this was sarcasm. A+ example of a red flag.
You're so threatened by people who like different TV shows than you that you have to pretend their opinions aren't serious?
I don’t mind the Kelvin films. Karl Urban as Bones makes it all worth while.
They’re just popcorn flicks. Watch or don’t watch and it’s not like the Star Trek Universe is altered in any way. (Also, those movies are better than everything after Wrath of Khan, movie-wise)
I used to think Chris Pine Kirk was better than Shatner. I now kind of feel like Pine’s the best Captain, but SNW Kirk’s the best gentlemanly lady killer kirk.
Largely agree, with a couple exceptions: Undiscovered Country and First Contact are good; Into Darkness is bad.
I don't really like any Trek past DS9 Don't hate me
As long as you don't take every available opportunity to steer every single online conversation towards how you don't like a tv show then we're cool
"You are allowed to have your opinion so long as you don't share it"
But they did share it and were cool about it. It's people who say stuff like "this is shit and people who like it are shit" that need to cool their jets.
Who said you can't share it? It's not illegal to be annoying 🤷♂️
This is the good take. Star Trek peaked at DS9 and there's yet to be a good reason to continue past it.
Biggest red flag in the entire thread. You win.
Ah yes, "my opinion is infallible and I'm righteous for screaming it from the rooftops, but your opposing opinion is ignorant and worthy of dismissal!"
Red flag indeed, friend.
This is so good I literally can't tell if you're doing copypasta or not
VOY and ENT are good
Never liked VOY, writing is poor.... Not interesting sci-fi like TNG, not a captivating story like DS9...
The Doctor is essentially the only good part. Maybe Seven of Nine, Jery Ryan is a great actress, despite the embarrassing clothing.
SNW is good, DIS is whack. PIC essentially crapped all over the past series' development, killed Hugh, Ro, Icheb, made the Federation grimdark... Monk Worf was cool tho.
What's the face for anyone who remembers that by TOS canon, the greek god Apollo is real and just got bored of Earth and fucked off to another planet?
If it doesn't have 20+ episode seasons it's nutrek
NuTrek apparently began in 1973.
How many episodes has TAS?
Based on a real situation I encountered once: Normal Star Trek Fan: Yeh, I like Seven of Nine.
“Red flag” Star Trek Fan: I like Seven of Nine.
I like NuMetal tbh
maybe I've consumed more and more scifi over the years to compare to or maybe the later releases of trek have lowered the average in my mind but I can't help but see trek in general as solidly mid now
I hadn't watched any Trek in a while and in Picard there was a scene where their ship was hit and started listing like a boat and I was like "that's not how space works!", then remembered that's the thing with Star Trek.
You got to remember that Star Trek is based upon submarines warfare.
solidly mid
I didn't really like TOS (except the movies, those were great) was a big TNG fan (not the movies though, didn't like those), I loved DS9, I was okay with Voyager and basically did not care for anything after, except maybe Lower Decks? Haven't seen SNW yet, will give it a try.
But all of that is just like, my opinion man, you go watch whatever gives you the good feels, I'll not police your opinion.
Except if you like Discovery-Klingons, liking those makes you a garbage-human!🚩

I was baffled about why their appearance was changed (again), but really hated the insistence on subs. I understand when I'm watching a movie and there is a scene in France that the characters are not actually speaking English with a French accent, it is translated for me for ease of viewing.
I like to have the option of doing things in the background when watching TV (Tidying up, making food, grinding something in a game, etc) and the insistence on using subs means the least interesting part of the show demanded my full attention.
Then just learn tlhIngan Hol?
There's NuTrek and there's new trek, one is bad and one is after your favorite series. It's a rectangles and squares situation
