So many, many Dicks in the world.
Sonequa Martin-Green is Your DSC Star
- Thread starter Balok's Decoy
- Start date
I know a lawyer called Dick. Very aptly named (which is why he's my favourite lawyer! 
)
)
Kinda like your parents flipped you a bird. Do you feel abused?
I know a devoted couple called Richard and Kitty.
I feel your pain.
It only hurts when I breathe.
I don't care about the name.
The raw and gritty part of the interview is yawn inducing. They're buzz words that have become so commonplace that they convey no meaning whatsoever.
I was against Trek becoming NuBSG back when that was a thing and I still am. Fuller talked about Trek's optimism in the past but now that he's no longer involved the new show runners many have thrown it out the window. It won't stop me from watching the pilot. I'll make the decision about whether or not to continue watching then.

What will stop you from watching the pilot?
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that, regardless of what character she's playing, Sonequa Martin-Green probably wasn't cast in Star Trek because her ring fingers are a millimeter longer than her index fingers.
They need her to wear an exact pair of gloves, any compromise is seen as failure. That's why it's taking so long to make the show.
Than what?
DS9 was slightly more sophisticated than a 1960s TV show, which was not remarkable for a show made in the 90s. Fans compared it only to TNG, which replicated 1960s TV, and so thought it somehow groundbreaking.
If DSC is as mannered, formal and squeaky-clean as the previous shows it's going to be laughed at for taking itself seriously.
Perhaps grittier and darker in tone, at least. "I can... live with it"... But point taken. Can't wait for more news about DSC!
That's why it took so long to make The People v. O.J. Simpson. They finally just had to cast Cuba Gooding because O.J. was still trying on those gloves.
It goes much deeper. It's why Fuller left the show. He was buying the shoes first and hiring the actors who could fit into them. CBS questioned him about it, he started laughing for what was described as "far too long than what is considered socially acceptable". The execs slowly backed away and pressured him into leaving using a man who had experience training bears.
I think your tinfoil hat might be on too tight.
Baxten already got a warning for that post, so it's probably best if we stopped quoting from it, or else he'll want to respond with more nonsense.
I think it is actually wise. Calling your child for example like a cardinal direction, North West, is kind of ridiculous and doesn't do the child any favours. Royal Reign is equally stupid. Or what about this:

Why should names like these be allowed? Children shouldn't suffer under their names.
^ Point taken.
There's not much evidence that they do.
