The Orville: New Horizons - Orville Departs Union Dockyard [4K]

[@thanqualthehighseer]

If the studios finally want to move away from superhero movies, they should look to Seth McFarlane to do Galaxy Quest 2

[@hurricane7puertorican582]

LOL but Quest is unique story hard to make another one.

[@O.G.LIL-MAN]

No. That would essentially make this a farce project

[@Shockwave33]

Why not an Orville movie?

[@horatio8213]

Orignal cast of Galaxy Quest do not want do another movie witout Alan Rickman.

@@horatio8213 That, and a few of them are in their 70s. Not every actor wants to keep working till death, some do actually want to retire and just enjoy the rest of their life doing the things they love most (if that is not acting). Not judging, just stating facts.

[@cbspock1701]

They totally went for The Enterprise leaves dock, from Star Trek The Motion Picture, even down to the new look for the Orville.

[@paulmichaelfreedman8334]

And the color differences in the sections of hull plating is a nice touch, on that note the Enterprise in Strange new worlds looks absolutely stunning with the darker hull plating, giving way more contrast to the ship

@@paulmichaelfreedman8334 Enterprise in SNW looks like fake CGI crap you can see it looks video game level computer graphics paint brushes the DiscoPrise is complete trash, its only a little better than the bottom of the barrel JJprise. It is the same crap storytelling and awful writing of STD just with jangling keys so the lemmings can turn off their brains and tune in because it has "Star trek" slapped on it. The Orville actually does better Star Trek stories. the heart of Star Trek lives on the Orville. I am looking forward to Kurtzman Trek finally dying out.

I got flash backs to Star Trek the Motion Picture, when the Enterprise (no bloody A, B, C or D) slipped out from her moorings to intercept V'GER. God good memories.

man thats some really niiice special effects for movie!..... i mean really clean clean work :)

[@ah7910]

I actually get emotional watching this. Thank you Seth. Your three seasons of Orville are perfection and to now hear that there is “more on the way” in your recent interview has me getting even more emotional. This is the tone and optimism I want from science-fiction, thank you for giving us the positive escapism we crave.

[@jaybluff281]

As much as Picard and Disco have been complete disasters, I gotta be fair and say Strange New Worlds has been pretty damn good and Lower Decks has some great episodes if you can survive the first half of season 1. (No lie, EP9 of S2 "wej duj" is probably the best episode of Star Trek in 25 years.)

[@na1677]

@@jaybluff281 of the official Startrek stuff.. Lower Decks is by far the most true to traditional trek-form (and admittedly a favourite of mine) . Sure Strange new worlds is better than other 'current' live action Trek..... But generally speaking, the modern live action Trek stuff like Picard and Descovery are trying to hard to be edgy and woke.. and ends up trampling all over established Trek canon.

[@simply2187]

I mean Lower Decks is good

[@teslahertz4916]

It would be great, if The Orville would get another 2 Seasons.

[@paulmichaelfreedman8334]

I'd like to see the emotion tech get adapted for current Kaylon generations. It would massively strengthen the bond with the Union and it would make for some really interesting episodes about how they deal with their new emotions as a species, something Star Trek has never done before, Data was the only android to acquire emotions.

[@hobbz7126]

I haven't seen this yet since I don't have Hulu. I swear that music reminds me of James Horner (who did ST2:TWOK). Can't wait to watch it on Disney+.

[@timothyarnold1679]

@@darkleome5409 I actually found "tale of two topas" to be, perhaps accidently, very anti-woke, anti-trans. It's premise is the child was born a girl and was modified into a boy to fit the parents politics, which the crew found Abhorrent. Pretty much fits the behavior of the current left toward their children and societies reaction to it.

[@reaality3860]

I love the CGI special effects, but never understood why these ships bank against the atmosphere in a turn and make 'whooshing' sounds (or any sound) as they travel through the vacuum of space.

[@karlallen330]

Psychology. I think Star wars had an explanation for noise in space. Basically, scanners would be used to identify possible noise sources and project them to pilots or crew as the appropriate noise and direction. Helps keep people from thinking about the cold empty black, just beyond the glass, helped keep their minds from fraying in the quiet of space. I could be wrong though.

[@jayski9410]

That's always been my pet peeve. Maneuvering in space is nothing more than short thruster bursts in one direction or another. Sometimes longer rocket burns to change orbits. But mostly its just riding your momentum with nothing burning. Of course that's not very visual or exciting so Hollywood seems insistent on giving spaceships aerodynamic flight characteristics in a vacuum. And let's not forget that shooting anything with mass from a spacecraft would send you into reverse pretty quickly.

[@danamoore1788]

I think TV Tropes went over it. Basically most viewer would wonder about the lack of sound. So they put it in even though they know it is wrong.

[@CMOT101]

Because silence is fucking boring

[@Caseytify]

Roddenberry called it the "Aunt Millie effect." If your Aunt Millie doesn't buy into it, the scene won't work. People are used to ships moving through an atmosphere, so they subconsciously expect the ship to bank, and to make a noise when it passes the camera. The original Star Trek opening credits had the Enterprise flashing by the camera silently, but it didn't test well. Once they added the "swoosh" effect, folks were happy.

[@jamesdiehl8690]

One of the oddest looking ships I've seen! Like a combination of Voyager and something very 👽 alien!

[@davidgiles4681]

am I seeing things correctly? Is the bridge protected by just a clear unknown substance? Is a defensive force field and or defensive shield generator protecting the Bridge? Do I see things correctly?

[@more-reasons6655]

You're acting like this is the first ever star ship to have windows. And I'm pretty sure most star trek ships have their bridge at the top exposed. This is the only one that decided to have a view screen and a window at the same time

[@RealCheese15]

Actually yes, it is explained in this very season that the entire ship is protected by a quantum field generated by its dysonium core, which protects the ship from the vacuum of space and any small debris or space dust. So there is a clear *KNOWN* shield around it, *OTHER THAN* its usual deflectors, also clear defensive shields. Its almost as if the show explains its mechanisms and world to you but you didn't pay attention during it!
