      No we're not. Hollywood may produce some god awful crap, but it doesn't come remotely close to the agonizing cringe of fan films. People who have zero training in wushu twirling lightsabers and thinking they can do their own choreography, directed by people who don't know how to direct, delivering lines written by illiterates, with the gravitas of an actor in a high school play.

      If you think about it: star trek was always close to be a fantasy in space.
      Vulcans = Elfs
      Klingons = Orks
      Humans = Humans
      Holograms = Golems
      Ferengi = Goblins
      Romulan = Dark Elfs
      Borg = Zombies
      Hirogen = Darkelfs
      Species 8472 = Demons
      and so on.
      There is even magic and some kind of gods involevd.
      Edit: Ferengi are the goblin becouse the romulans are more the dark elfs/dwarfs.
      sorry for this messup.

      Space walks. The age of ascendance, 13, to become a warrior, started and possibly ended with a test of an open space walk. This leaves a dead skin look. Eventually the epidermis is gradually grown out but depending on how long the "walk" was endured would determine what kind of Warrior they would be regarded as. The "albino" Klingon, great diplomats. The far darker warriors were considered to have seen stovacore and therefore no longer feared death. Obviously this practice changed by the time Alexander reached the age of Ascension.
      Or did I guess wrong in explaining the physical attributes of a made-up people? Remember they don't talk about it with Outsiders.

    Farscape actually handled alien language very well, they introduced microbes that would be injected, so all the different aliens including the main character would still be speaking their own language, then the main character and hence the audience would be hearing English as the microbes would be translating for the main character. And the only times we would hear the original language of the aliens was with cuss words or words that don't have a direct translation, like with phrases.

      Janeway was my fav, she had to deal with all the crazy shit in the delta quadrant without starfleet assistance, no starbase to go resupply n repair at, no federation to call when you need back up. They found "new life and new civilizations." Given alot of which kinda wanted to kill them.... but still she and her crew did all that including R&D on things like delta flyer, transwarp n that lot of things. I felt she had a good balance to between diplomatic and hostile / aggression n assertive. Seemed alot less diplomatic than Kirk but more ...assertive for lack of a better word than Picard.

      If I recall the late 90's was the start of when hollywood wanted to try and make female characters appear badass, sometimes it worked other times it was just cringeworthy however in Janeways case I think they really pulled it off well. With STD The show itself is ground breaking but I just don't like Michael Burnem , I think she's entitled and full of herself, she's like a bad Tom Paris. I've only watched about 5 episodes of STD so I will go back and give it another chance, I'm hoping in the future they'll develop the characters further.

    I just came across this video and I have to say FINALLY!!!! someone sees what I see. The stories are muddled; the characters are unsympathetic; the tech (magic mushrooms that bind the universe together!) is absurd; and the moral underpinnings that make Star Trek, well, Star Trek are gone. Michael Burham is unlikable and arrogant . Her seemingly mandatory crying scenes don't give her depth; they just highlight her self-absorption. As an aside: Thank G-d they at least somewhat marginalized Ash Tyler. I couldn't stand to see that sniffling, co-dependent , wimp blubber one more time over his (cue violins) undying love and angst for Burnham . Sorry: I HAD to vent.

    I once talked to a guy who stared in various fan films. He was a big fan of Star Trek but he told me he didn't like Discovery & it wasn't over politics. All your criticisms here are valid but now that I watch the series. It is not Star Trek. It is beyond dumbed down. It is an action space film that resembles Trek.
    The canon was pooped on. I could live with Spock having a half-brother from his Father's previous marriage in the 5th movie we don't talk about. But all this time he has had a secret adopted human step-sister? That ruins the whole dynamic with His Father! Spock was always at odds with his Father because he was half human and yet Sarek is shown as having a human adopted daughter whom he has a better relationship with? FUCK THAT!!!!!
    My only solace is to know Star Trek established in STTNG there is a multiverse and I can pretend all this stupidity doesn't really exist in the Classic Trek universe.

      The Federation is actually more like an ideal United States and was always intended to be so. It and Starfleet are more based on classical ideas of liberty, natural rights, republicanism, the scientific method and civic virtue (as Captain Picard always more or less insisted, making him one of televisions greatest characters, if not the greatest) than Marxism/Communism. The only reason Earth and Starfleet are without money is because tech has eradicated scarcity. There are still relatively independent states, property and even classes based on merit. In the old series they would never attempt to force a species to join the Federation or to adopt human or Federation ways. The Federation was all about protecting rights.

    • @fuzzywzhe
      @fuzzywzhe 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @jamesk479 Here, I'm going to be kinder and less verbose.
      If people are saying "dumb sh***", tell them what that "dumb shi***" is. If you don't do this, you're not engaging with them, you're just insulting them. You might be right, but you're giving no opportunity for the other person to understand they are wrong, or to demonstrate you are wrong.
      I'm pointing out that the true toxic group, are people like you. I don't need to insult you, or demean you, I'll just take issue with what you've said.
      I find the current incarnations of Star Trek to be horribly written, and that the main reason "minorities" (which are absolutely fine!) are placed into lead roles is that when people inevitably complain about the lazy, incompetent, stupid writing, is that when they do, they can be denounced as racists, sexists, whatever.
      This happened with GhostBusters 2016. That movie largely failed NOT because women were in the lead roles, but because the writing was terrible. It wasn't funny. It was lazy. They dependeded entirely on the name of "GhostBusters" and GhostBusters 2 wasn't that good.
      And you had all the effort put in for special effects, sets, and honestly good comedians, but the writer was a complete screw up.
      A low budget production, with lousy special effects can become a classic with great writers or even just competent ones.
      The original series of Star Trek isn't remembered for its amazing special effects (although they WERE top of the line at the time) and it's not remembered for the amazing sets (although they did a good job within their constraints not knowing what would be available to a CONSUMER just 40 years later), it stands up, because the writing (at least for season 1 and 2) were quite good.
      It's considered "campy" today, but it had quite a few thoughtful episodes. People have built recreations of the sets, CGI clones of the sets, fan fiction, blah blah blah, because they loved it. I think I'm correct in saying that's not going to happen with Discovery or Picard because the writers, are horrible. None of the stories are memorable. They have a worse understanding of science than I did when I was 10, seriously. And I'm serious.
      The writers make ZERO effort in being believable within the realm of known physics or even how people would act of make decisions.
      If you enjoy it, that's fine, but it's lost the technical community.
      To be honest, I thought that TNG was losing the ability to be believable.
      Now, there's NO science consultants (well competent ones anyhow) in the current incarnations. It's pure fantasy and they don't even care about how people would realistically react, it's just filler until the next cgi-boom-boom 'splosion sequence. If that's all people wanted, there's video games for that.
      I was really hoping that when a show called DISCOVERY would go back to strange new worlds. They proposing a series called Strange New Worlds, but I don't believe them. It's a false promise.
      Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on you. I've looked for the origin of the quote, it may have been created by a "low budget" science fiction show that has entered our vernacular. I don't think anything that "writers" of Discovery of Picard say will.

It is impressive, great acting, and far more satisfying in its mere 20 minutes than all of Discovery. You actually came away from that 20 minute episode wanting MORE. I did watch the first season of Discovery out of curiosity. Have absolutely NO DESIRE to see anything else.

      Oh shut up. It's kind of hard not to have things happen to non-white races when almost everyone is. And may I point out that the two white characters also got killed? You're what gives the left a bad name. DSC is not racist (which would include anti-white). The strongest case for it being racist is that comment about someone's background referring to them being black. It does suck though.
      Okay, I thought I was done, I'm not. Having something happen to non-white people is not fucking racist! Neither is having the two main characters being female anti-male nor is the majority of the cast being non-white anti-white. After all, the majority of people is non-white, and although I did not break it down, it seems like the racial makeup of the DSC cast resembles the racial makeup of earth pretty well.
      Here is the list of discriminatory things series do:
      - Having a token black/female/gay person to excuse all claims of discrimination
      - Over a big sample, having a complete lack of diversity (unless it makes sense in context)
      - Having every diverse character fit their stereotype (note: some stereotypes are fine, because some people really do act like their stereotypes)
      Here is a list of things series do which are not (by themselves) discriminatory:
      - Have discriminatory characters
      - Having a small group share gender or race (these things happen by chance in the real world too)
      - Having something happen to non-white people (guess what, stuff happens to people of every race! The thing people rightfully complain about is 'the black character being killed off', but it's the token black guy that's the main problem, not the having something happen to them)

      If you look at the evidence Dave has presented, in the show creators own words, the Klingons actually look like they represent Native American Indian culture.
      And as Dave said the Federation represents imperialism, or the colonialists who wiped out the Indians.
      If they wanted to be truly social justice they'd have the Klingons invading Starfleet Federation territory as migrants making demands on the host culture.
      As you say Chris they really don't appear to have thought through their own worldview. They are following blind ideology and it may be a massive mistake on their part. There is little intelligence to their approach. They are even showing emotional immaturity in how they're communicating with Trek fans.

    In the original Star Trek they had multiple races working together, however they were all basically of the same culture. Sure they came from different cultural backgrounds but whether they assimilated or just came from very similar cultures, in the end they were all part of the same culture. Spoke a common language, same morals, values, etc.
    True racists are rare. One of the big issues these days are people moving to new countries who refuse to assimilate, and that causes all kinds of problems. Some worse than others depending on how dissimilar their culture is. It's the cultural differences that people don't like on both sides, race usually has little to do with it. ...other than it is used as an excuse to further divide people by corrupt elites.

Each episode manages to stand on its own in some form or fashion, it doesn't shove any political agenda down your throat and then shit in your mouth saying "YEAH, POLITICAL AGENDA". It's much more in line with the Star Trek we know and love compared to Picard and Discovery. The characters have flaws, and aren't fully in synch at the start of the show, but by the halfway point of Season 1, they've come together pretty smoothly.

One of the great strengths of star trek has always been, as you say, a more subtle diversity, as if OHMYGOD the future actually got past these things. This kind of heavy handed, lazy writing TOTALLY dates this show and it will not be rewatched a few years from now. The original and TNG stories are often timeless.

    Here’s one thing I can’t understand with liberal reactions to the Klingons and how their self-isolation is bad: why is it bad for the Klingons to live in self isolation but not bad for the Japanese during the Tokugawa Shogunate? For those who don’t know, Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu instituted a policy of self-isolation on Japan called Sakoku, forbidding any foreigner to set foot in Japan and for any Japanese to leave. Sakoku was ended when Commodore Matthew Perry entered Tokyo Bay with four warships and demanded that Japan end its self-isolation, or America would take their country by force. We would view the actions of Commodore Perry as the actions of an imperialist warmonger, but for some reason the Federation acting in a similar way is somehow promoting diversity? I’m sorry ST:D producers, but I don’t see the Klingons as white nationalists in this situation. Instead I see the Japanese staring down the barrels of Commodore Perry’s guns.

The Cardassians were a ruthless racist empire who occupied Bajor and oppressed the Bajorans. Gul Dukat made several Cardassian supremacist speeches in the show that could be lifted straight from Nazi Germany or the Confederate South. There was an episode were Sisko went back in time to the 1960s Civil Rights era and had to deal with racism. These have always been Star Trek themes. That was always Roddenberry's intention.

    • @phaedruslive
      @phaedruslive 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You're right, Joel. They have always been central themes. However, before the secular original sin of whiteness, these ideas were handled in a lot more grown-up way. There was some nuance there. There was usually a cost to taking that higher road ethically. Not this binary "with our beliefs or against them" jingoism going round hollywood. I don't think you can argue that these themes haven't been handled much more artfully in the past, given how social justice themes seem to been reduced to their least sophisticated iterations (Particularly for ST, which has kind of spearheaded those conversations on Television) I'm not sure how it's happened that writing is getting dumber rather than more subtle but it certainly has gone downhill. I'm not some hardliner for any particular political camp, but I have to agree with the consensus that using such a venerated franchise as a blunt force instrument for ideology (Rather than just idealism, and there is a noteworthy difference between the words) is sort of profane.

      And ever since, Star Trek was a part of my life, with TNG, DS9, Voyager and Enterprise. Not anymore, because since the movie reboot, Star Trek is pretty much dead and what we see now is a mockery of the real thing, just like a zombie which is an imitation of life.

    Coming back to this video after a few years and it is still wringing true, but make no mistake, the war against any form of racial or cultural identity and the gatekeeping thereof is not just confined to people of European descent. You say leftists don't complain about Japan. Oh trust me, they do. It's just that these schools of thinking have been brewing in the West since the 1800s, and they don't have as much of a foothold in nations like Japan. Essentially, all this shit started here, and there's going to be a latency passing it off to Japan. Consider also that these viewpoints spread across the anglosphere even faster than the rest of the west. It's always USA and Canada and UK and Aus at the forefront of the latest SJW and globalist campaigns. There is a massive cultural and language gap that needs to be crossed when they attempt to infect Asia with this shit.
    And regarding things like black lives matter being able to operate with impunity when white nationalism is reviled. It's all just a means to an end. Black lives matter is just another arm of the globalist conquest. It fits their narrative and helps accelerate divide and conquer. They are useful idiots. At the moment, anti-whiteness is the thing that unifies the frayed and insane left, and so it is constantly reinforced so as to try and keep their desperate ideologies together long enough to keep globalism spreading.
    Basically, the actors and producers in this show are either willingly pushing globalism or are useful idiots being manipulated with insane anti-white rhetoric.

    Having seen all that was available on Netflix - I can truly, and very sadly say it really was terrible. I kept watching each episode as they were released hoping and naively expecting that it would all come together and become the enjoyable sci-fi romp that have been the stock in trade of the earlier series.
    And as for the premise - a "special" starship traversing the universe using fungus and the worst "teletubbies" like animation for entry and exit of ship into and out of the "dry rot" multi-fungi-universe-bullshit - really really childlike rubbish.
    Very disappointed - crestfallen - sad state of affairs.

    Orville, is good ,
    I really liked the 3rd episode about the baby being female , but being made into a male
    It did not feel pushed or rammed down your neck. It was a good story

      It touched on gender issues, but since the baby was a baby and, using progressive usage of the term, couldn't yet have a "gender" (not to mention the Moclans being a primarily single-gender species unlike humans), the parallels to real-world trans issues were inherently limited.
      It seemed to me to touch on several topics, from simple chauvinistic sexism to the definition of disabilities to parental and governmental coercion.
      I actually thought it handled things quite well, and more artfully than I'd feared. (I enjoyed the first two episodes and was not wanting to be disappointed with ep 3).

    I was 20 years old when Voyager first aired and seeing as I grew up in a world where men ran things, that I had no decent strong women in my life as an example that such a thing even existed, that the previous 3 captains had been men, resulted in I having strong reservations whether I could respect Janeway as a captain of a starship. Boy was I wrong.
    I can honestly say that Janeway was my first example of a strong woman who deserved respect because of her accomplishments and leadership ability. She embodied a stern presence that you didn't fuck with, and she did it without loosing her feminine qualities. She was both tough as nails and as delicate as a flower, whatever the situation called for. She was a perfect example of strength and vulnerability, she was real and believable. The writers did all this without needing to prop her up by tearing down the men around her. The men around her were smart and strong men in their own right, but Janeway was actually smarter and stronger in the ways a captain needed to be, she deserved to be the captain.
    This Discovery/Michael Burnham bullshit where no competent human, white, heterosexual men exist any longer is pathetic and nauseating. Captain Pike is as close as we get and even he lacks any leadership qualities because he is always deferring to the decisions of the females around him, a trait that has continued in "Strange New Worlds". God forbid he ever make a leadership decision on his own, and I bet if he ever does it'll end badly just to show he should have listened to the girls.

    • @floycewhite6991

      In the very first show, Janeway violated the Prime Directive in order to get her crew stuck 70 years' at maximum warp from the Federation. And it only went downhill from there. That's not leadership. That's narcissistic personality disorder.

    • @toddmiller5322
      @toddmiller5322 ปีที่แล้ว

      @floycewhite6991 the prime directive gets violated frequently, besides it was just a means to create a narrative. Also you've obviously never known a narcissist if you think Janeway was one.

    For a german person (as I am one) that sounds like the stuff that they did in Germany 100 years ago. And we lost two world wars because of it. Also Japan did lose quite a lot in a world war. So Isolation and preserving something, thats ever evolving isn't maybe the best idea.

    I remember when you first uploaded this, and it's really sad that Discovery peaked at the pilot and only got worse. I enjoy going back to listen to these older videos.
    In all honesty I would like to see a true sequel series that kicks off in the middle of a war, and we're on a ship that's more militaristic, with a Starfleet that's also taken that same mindset, and through the series we see Starfleet have to regain it's more optimistic view on the universe.
    But that's just me.
