Trebling down on this rubbish?
It's the last season and at the very least it's throwing up some interest in the trailers. May as well give it a watch.

It’s because the Enterprise got an EPC rating of F, they had to remove all those halogens.

Yep, and then there's all the "suddenly i'm a lesbian" ret-conning
Has she said shes a lez though, or are they doing that 'trendy' thing where you, the viewer gets to decide because it's left purposefully ambiguous so it covers as many bases as possible, just to get that inclusivity badge, but ends up being written in a crap way so makes no sense and weakens the show and character?

Of that just annoys the LGBTQ community even more because its clear pandering to the manocentric maleocracy who couldn't deal with an actual lesbian so they leave it up in the air. Thats the fun thing about some people in these groups. You just can't win

She was only 45, Cancer can just **** ***!

Damn, I also remember her from 24 in which she was great. 45 is no age.I see Annie Wersching who played the Borg Queen in the last series has just died.

Just posted in the other thread. Strangely I didn’t realise it was her that played the Borg Queen.
I never realised that previous to her the Borg Queen had 2 actors, I always thought it was the same person from First Contact that played the character in Voyager. Had a very similar look when made up.

Nonsense, it's because there are only four lights.
It makes me sad that the new generation being weened onto modern Trek will have no idea what this means.

Actually looks decent, but then I fell asleep through half of the last season.

The one thing I have noticed with all modern "Star Trek" is that it looks nice sometimes but none of the stories have any intelligence or thought behind them. The story lines all seem to just be violence followed by unrealistic or unbelievable events, such as Seven and her "friend" killing all those borgified people with guns while they themselves were unarmed. Somehow (we didn't see) they defeated them all. The whole 3 series of modern trek have all suffered from this, poor writing basically. It is not a Star Trek that I recognise other than some shared actors. Trek of old got you thinking about things, it didn't push down your throat what you are supposed to think, it just presented the facts, in an unbiased way. Something which is missing now.
New Trek is mostly about SFX and identity politics, with the odd story here and there, usually written terribly.

People say Trek has always been 'woke', it hasnt, its always had storylines and, as you said, done things in a way that makes YOU think but not in a way that it TELLs you WHAT to think, that to me is what it means to be 'WOKE' where the storyline and the character building is a distant point compared to being inclusive and sending a message in a forced way...
And even the sfx aren't great, the warp effect drives me mad at how dumbed down its got, going to warp used to be an event, now its a quick blur effect and a crap sound. Same as the sounds for weapons, sounds like a bunch of fisher price toys going "pew pew"

Trailers confirming its Lore..
Wonder if he perhaps found B4, or whichever 'Sung'droid' it was in the previous film, and he maybe nicks his positronic net or merge's with it in some sort of weird assed attempt to be more than he and Data were and it ends up where its a bit of all 3 of them and Lore being the good guy is a knock on effect where Lore is no longer the Lore we knew...
Possibly, or maybe he's come to the conclusion every time he does something bad he ends up in bits and needs reassembled. Turning over a new leaf!
