Massaro confronts Archer and puts the phase pistol up to his temple and fires. I do believe that there's a "trigger button" on various phasers and disruptors, but I must say that most suicide by phaser (or otherwise) doesn't involve the mouth.

And Star Trek must take place in a dystopia, where the worst of mankind never learns and still festers even centuries into the future, rather than in a promising utopia, where mankind's finally learned and pursued it's potential for greatness as a unified race. It's hip and totally relatable to be hopelessly depressed and mopey these days, I guess. Everything else is just the product of out-dated, un-hip "Boomer" thinking apparently. 🤷♀️

I have always said that I would be happy with anything as long as we were getting a new Star Trek show. Picard tested that theory to my absolute limit. I almost broke. If season 2 isnt some form of improvement i dont think i will keep watching. How much entertainment did they think they were going to be providing showing an old man waddling about the stars being told off by some angsty woman every other second or sworn at for the rest of the time? Why oh Why Picard couldnt you save us with your precious starfleet ships? *A few episodes later almost 300 romulan ships show up out of nowhere.

I just don’t get that interview included here where Stewart said the swearing is because the “world has changed”. Except we’re living in the *PRESENT* and Star Trek is in the *FUTURE*. You could say that maybe he was referring to the world of entertainment instead but if that’s the case they shouldn’t be copying others.

His "world" is an echo chamber of Hollywood elite who think that all white people are as rich and privileged as they are. They (Hollywood liberals in general) think if they virtue signal enough it will somehow cancel out all of the child molestation or other horrible things they've done to other people. If they haven't molested kids themselves, they ignored the molesting other people were doing so as to not jeopordize their own careers. In Stewart's case, Bryan Singer, director of the X-Men movies that Stewart starred in, is a pedophile. Ian McKellen has also made some weird comments indicating that he may have also molested boys.

i can’t even express how disappointed i am with how nutrek has turned out. Is it too much to ask for a tng or ds9 style show, but with none of that terrible writing and story structure? I saw a glimpse of it in the episode where riker and troi showed up in picard, but that didn’t last long. It’s the curse of CBS All Access, they don’t have the pressure to actually put out a half decent show, they just come up with shows like Discovery and Picard. I have no hope for the upcoming animated Lower Decks show which is supposed to take place in the TNG era. Knowing them, they’re gonna break canon for the 500th time, everyone’s gonna be gay (gotta fill that quota, can’t be lacking on the inclusivity!), the Captain is gonna be an idiot, etc. It just makes me mad, yknow?

I think one has to BE an adult to write a Golden Era Trek episode. Gen X, who are the ones writing these episodes for Millenials, always have that "coolest kid in the room" attitude, moreso than the hippies that preceded them. The flaw is they don't think THAT deeply about what they're making or the implications of their art. The goal then becomes how edgy can their art be, hence the rise in gore porn and ST:P-esque shows. Stories became less about virtuous characters and more about character studies to finally spectacle porn. The level of maturity to write these kinds of characters goes down because it's much easier to project pessimism than optimism.

It's in line with NuStarWars... They know the fans will watch it anyway, so they make it for the "new audiences"... this also is in line with the DCEU attitude about hope and good vs evil. There is just so much cynicism and apathy that they can't bring themselves to imagine that audiences would react well to a positive and hopeful message. The counter to their world view is, of course, the MCU. Captain America proves you can do good and hopeful well. I cancelled my subscription to CBS and wrote to them telling them why. I'm done with NuTrek... Discovery I could tolerate, but Picard was just too much.

When I heard that Star Trek: Picard was going to be made... I literally had dreams about the show. I was in a situation with the military where I wasn't able to watch it as it premiered and it literally disturbed me, almost depressed me. I was looking so forward to the show. I had the most respect and admiration for the character of Captain Picard and Patrick Stewart for the way in which he was able to portray the character. When I got home literally one of the first things I did was sit down to start watching it... I made it about as far as the where Seven of Nine takes control of the Romulan Borg Cube and seriously quit watching it. I've never been so let down , disappointed, and to be honest straight ashamed and I wish that it would have never been made. It is a stain on the character, the series, everything I loved about it. Watching Patrick Stewart meekly and sadly portray such a strong, amazing character is nauseating, especially when I go to compare it to some of the great scenes of TNG. The entire show, everything is just so... well, the best thing I can think to say is, "why". What really sucks is this is now Cannon... this is now the universe that I use to love but now have little respect for. Patrick Stewart, now I realize, really never understood the character he was playing and all the idiots producing this garbage have no real idea of the universe in which it is all set. It's almost like the show is being sabotaged... I almost wish that were true. At least then I would have an explanation as to what the hell is going on and why...

He agreed to do Star Trek Picard because it wasn't a Star Trek show and was pretty much the opposite of everything he came to dislike about TNG it wasn't an optimistic view on the potential of what Mankind could come to be Kurztrek was a pessimistic view on how humanity even hundreds of years into the future would still be the same garbage as today......

The really sad thing is some of this could be explained with decent writing. Cultural trauma to the Federation from massive casualties in the Dominion War or a new Borg invasion, could explain some of the societal shifts. Bitterness from Dominion War veterans to Picard (who basically sat out the Dominion War) could explain the radical turn of Star Fleet. It would have required some really delicate tap dancing, but it could be done, if there was a point to it. But there was no point, just lazy writing. Certain writers saw the Expanse and Game of Thrones and couldn't come up with their own setting so they just wore Star Trek like a skin suit.

"Star Trek is a formula. It's not my idea, it's not your idea, it's not Paramount's idea. It's Gene Roddenberry's idea of the 24th century, and it's very important for me to remember that. Not because I'm 'faithful to Gene's legacy,' as people love to write; it's because that's what Star Trek is. To change that is to not be doing Star Trek anymore. Roddenberry's creation is a hopeful, idealistic, and arguably absurd view of the future: an era in which racism and poverty have been vanquished, and mankind combs the cosmos with a smile and a shoeshine. This vision is the genome that has defined Star Trek for three decades. It's a DNA string with an infinite potential for variation - but an unwavering premise." (Rick Berman 1996 Wired Magazine)
@bvansenu3 жыл бұрын
The thing is, humanity not acting perfectly at all times isn't the problem. A lot of TNG episodes had characters acting in a way that wasn't Roddenberry's enlightened vision of humanity and they still worked. The problem is when that behavior is not immediately met with disapproval by the rest of the crew because they all act that way. Humanity still had flaws in TNG, they just were always trying to address those flaws and do better.
