Spoilers Star Trek: Picard General Discussion Thread
- Thread starter Tuskin38
- Start date
There may be action, brainless action that is (skinhead Romulans with motorcycle helmets that aim worse than Stormtroopers launching their silly attacks), but there is zero social commentary. Where do you see any relevant social commentary? Potentially, yes. That's all it is - potentially. Sounds (and looks) like 0% Trek to me.
Pushing the envelope? That's not pushing the envelope, that's regressing to a state of brainless and primitive B-grade action show.
Apparently. Suspiciously in minority. Hence my comment on the CBS affiliation. Which was denied. There is however no way of really knowing it, is there?
He is the master plagiarist, a hack. If he reads this, I say, he can go to hell. That hack hasn't deserved any less.
I don't know if logic works here.
Well there is certainly no logic in this Fake Trek: Prickhard
You really don't see it for yourself? Then there is really no point in pointing it out for you.
I don't feel it. Please don't try manipulating people with words. I know there is none, because I see it, I hear it, i.e. I see none and hear none.
You salute my bravery? I don't need your f***** salutation. Your reply is actually a confirmation of what I stated earlier, namely that here negative comments are practically nonexistent and undesirable in this Kurtzman/CBS All Asses shill nest. Any and every negative commentary is considered "bravery", instead being considered sane judgment.
You bet I will.

CBS All Asses shills? Klutzman fan(atic)s? GR haters? Or simply all of it?

I missed this line upon first skimming of the wall of manifesto. Another clarification: There is no fucking rule against using the fucking F-word on this fucking board. What is against the rules is telling somebody to fuck off or calling them a motherfucker. It's all a matter of fucking context.

In the post briefly quoted from below, I took the liberty of fixing your quote tags because they were misattributing the quotes.
Now that is against the rules, as you were referring to posters here. Warning for Flaming, comments to PM (Conversations).

Somebody who had an interest in engaging in actual conversation would be in the episode threads finding piles and piles of posts criticizing the show.
I did no such thing nor would I do that (in bold). The rules, however, state, if I'm not mistaken, that the F word is, mildly put, not desirable.
Funny how it is accepted in this show - that has the title "Star Trek" - as something completely normal, and is even considered by some as "pushing the envelope". Techno-babble would probably be the object of derision here, but no, not such profanities... which actually never, ever had a place in the known Star Trek universe nor should they have.
That was probably a typo on my part, in which double c became double s. Gee, how could that happen to me. I'll have to pay more attention to that. Thanks for the heads up.
I'm not trying anything, only expressing my honest criticism of this show and wondering at the lack of the same in this place. Most like it, I get it. Fine. If they really do. But how can there be any real discussion if everyone is praising that thing? If there is zero critique, which, if you ask me, is absolutely justified in this case. That's almost like North Korea... there's only praise for the Great Leader, no matter how bad he is. Sorry, I can't quite get or really accept that. You're right, I don't like it, I don't like it at all. And I wish to say that, clearly and honestly, openly. Even among the clique who supposedly love it to death, even though there have been only a handful (of bad) episodes of it. And, according to those same folks, who supposedly like and watch Star Trek, Gene R. is a whoremonger and cocaine addict (why such people watch Star Trek at all and "like it" if they dislike or even hate its creator, I wonder). I do not wish to insult you, if you honestly like the show and wish an honest discussion, but I do have some harsh words for its creators, that I admit. I think those ****** deserve it, completely. I do have concrete points of critique, and there are far too many, that I would like to address, for a discussion in a serious way, if you will allow me. However at this moment I don't have much time so I will put it off for later (I did address one issue earlier on, and it concerns the dreadful and totally unnecessary F and $h#t profanities).

That it's precisely not that which you claim it to be in the first sentence.
Wow, this thread took a turn...
I try not to engage with obvious nonsense, but I guess you caught me on a bad day, @Dix. To suggest that there is no criticism of the show on this board is insane - there are unquestionably some very vocal folk in here, expressing displeasure with the show. Hell, some of them don’t even go about it in the best way, from my perspective, but they’re still there. To say they aren’t just shows the lack of actual browsing you’ve done in here. Heck, finding such criticism would’ve taken less time than it took you to write those rage-filled unproductive posts.
Me? I love the show. Everything about it. Well, not everything, as I’d rather have 52-55 minute episodes rather than 45, but hey ho. Do I understand the criticism thrown PIC’s way? Nope. In fact, most of it appears rooted in some elitist attitude that Trek is somehow above all other sci-fi, and so the idea that a Trek show would dare stray away from previous formats is just a terrible terrible thing. Give me a break.
Anyway, take a chill pill, friend. Heck, get out of this forum if it’s causing you that much anxiety. You clearly won’t change your opinion on the show, so why engage in conversation about it? Especially with people who you feel have completely opposite opinions to you?
In fact, I don’t understand how it’s completely acceptable that you can so passionately hate this show (and hate doesn’t even seem to do it justice), but if other people are on the other end of the spectrum to you, they’re paid CBS moles.
Come on. I think there needs to be a bit of maturity here.

Firstly, that's Klingon. Klingons obviously use more swear words. Secondly, that's in Klingon, not in English. And, thirdly, those swear words, even in Klingon, are of a rather milder intensity (like e.g. damn, bastard, hell, etc.), which sometimes did appear in Trek. The aforementioned sh**t and f****ing, however did not. Ever. Nor should there be any place for them in the 24th century human vernacular. That's simply 21st century vernacular.
Compared to your juvenile comment on GR I feel like Mensa member with the highest score.
You see, that's an expletive. That's considered to be much milder than using the word sh*t do designate other things, which they do in this show, in episode 3, I think. And it's used in this fashion not once, but on several occasions. What Data said was uttered as a sort of shock and surprise, and, considering that he had his emotional chip turned on, it wouldn't be that surprising that some of those 21st century words stored in his positronic brain were retrieved and used at that moment. Besides, that expletive is masked by the surrounding noise to such an extent and uttered in such a quiet way that it almost goes unnoticed if one does not pay attention. So, it's not really a fitting example nor a justification for the aforementioned use in STP.
