Movies and TV Star Trek: Strange New Worlds - Page 12

I think my favorite thing about Star Trek is that they predicted tablets but in a way in which every tablet can only hold a single piece of information so if you wanted to work off an iPad you'd need about 75 of them pic.twitter.com/nc0mWDcoye

Yeah, I'm re-watching DS9 right now and it was funny when O'Brien took like 10 of those tablets on vacation with him in a S2 episode. :-)

I didn't care for the look of the bridge because it is a completely different style. Back then many TV shows still created sets as if they were putting on a play. So, you'd get blander colors and a lot of empty space to frame the action. The bridge on Strange New Worlds is a modern TV set so it's busier, brighter, and more colorful. I did get used to it and it stopped bothering me because the show itself is great.

Really good first episode, though hopefully Pike comes back for the remainder.

My guess/hope is there will be a Pike/Una focused episode next week now.

Probably. Although it certainly was weird to have have the captain and first officer have so little screen time.

But when the third banana is Spock, it's okay. I can only assume that as the show progresses he'll become more and more the heart of it.

Well, that was pretty fucking impressive for an opener! So are we going to see Spock ponn farr Chappel, because I feel like we are.

And damn does older Rebecca Romijn do it for me. Hnnnngg

First episode was intriguing! Surely that is not the last we see of Pike?

Every time the Captains Creed is resighted in the intro; when it come to the part were he says "To boldly go where no one has gone before!" I always think: Joy Behar???
