Also every Ben Stiller romcom (and most his other movies too). Dude’s got a hangup on cute blondes, we get it already.
I finally got a chance to watch it and I thought it was great.
An overdue homage to both Enemy Mine and The Arena, feels like they really cooked with this one 🔥
I love the ending with Ortegas’ epiphany that her new reality is that one of her friends killed one of her other friends.
Other than that bizarre found-footage episode, this entire season has been fire. Somehow they’ve managed to give us more of the crew in 3 seasons than disco ever did, and I’m loving it.
I have such high hopes for the new academy show after what I’ve seen in S3, bring on the next trek golden age!
Hey it could still work as a high school musical episode of the new academy show
Disco was so unhinged that a musical would have been amazing.
Okay, now here’s your big captain number where you sing and dance about shooting stamets out the airlock…and action!
Has the statute of limitations passed
I hope not. I saw single film and it was fucking grimy.
They are selling a blockbuster franchise and thus do not wish to offend anyone… so they invent a whole new breed of terrorists… atheist terrorists. 🤷♀️🤦♀️
It’s pure schlock for those that bring a foam finger to the movies.
Hey I’m also behind everyone else too, I’m glad to see a chance to chime in.
I consider this to be the absolute best “red shirt” episode yet. These are my reasons.
Ensign Gamble was introduced in prior episodes; no last-minute-hey-meet-airiam contrivances.
The episode starts with Gamble reading his log, as though he is framing the entire episode and foreshadowing his survival.
The threat was menacing and inscrutable, like an Armos with better presentation. But also sad, Gamble merely picking up that orb shows how fragile life can be even in the space future. He just gets iced for no good reason like Yar, because ultimately space is scary and dangerous.
Dr MBenga suffers more trauma and loss, as he should. Every redshirt was probably somebody’s protege and certainly leaves void we rarely get to see ( eg TNG Lower Decks). Closest runner up is Trip getting all tore up over ENT casualties.
This is how to kill an away team member and have me care about it.
It’s a good distinction to make that the characters were much more interesting than the story we saw.
I looked at a list of characters and I rank 4/7 of them as interesting, but sadly half of those were killed off :(
Space Hitler: 👎
Space Common: 👎
Quasi: 👍
Zeph 🪦: 👍
Garrett: 👍
Fuzz 🪦: 👎
Melle 🪦: 👍
All the scenes which René appears were not included.
I’m sorry Rene, the editor just said fuck you in particular 🤷♀️
they’re scary because they’re intelligent, relentless, and remorseless
Gorn Queen in 3..2…
I’m kidding, but also, please no.
I swear I remember they cut directly to Obrien and Data with incredulous "did he just say saucer sep" looks on their faces.
still not worth watching subrosa
I really like the beginning, but it’s all downhill from there
That bit right there is like a glob of glue along the seam where this Beholder plot was glued to the gorn cliffhanger.
Is any of this Beholder stuff foreshadowed before Batel fights Gamble the first time? I try to be a careful watcher, but it came outta left field for me.
Wish they would have leaned harder into reimagining Inner Light and less into boring chosen-one-stuff.
