For 30 years I worked in the real general public: high schoolers. I would show the Enemy Within to my psych classes.

The vast majority of students had never seen any Trek. Not even the new movies. Not Pine, not Shatner. They sort of knew it was a scifi thing. CBS only came on my last two years. Maybe it's changed a little.

Avengers, yes. Star Trek, not really.

When a new SW movie came out, there'd even be a good chunk of kids who hadn't seen any SW ever.

We often way overestimate what the general public thinks of Trek.
How do they react to it? Intrigued or bored?

It's true, I caught Kurtzman in my house trying to take all my DVDs. Michelle Paradise was outside in car at the curb with the motor running.
Did you feel threa'ened, and did you sign an after david?
 
So, respectfully (genuinely not trying to be a dink, just curious)...you don’t like the Berman era and you clearly don’t like the Kurtzman stuff....are you actually a Star Trek fan?

Because that’s like 80% of the entire franchise.

Yeah, its possible - I'm a TOS, STC, TAS, Movies I-VI guy myself, and I'm finally watching Enterprise and started DSC because of the 23rd century and TOS connections. I'm still watching DSC, but I gave up on PIC halfway through, and I actually somehow like Lower Decks, it grew on me by the end. I am looking forward to checking out SNW.
 
I think this is one of the things I'm struggling with. The timing of everything feels urgent, even though a lot of time has passed. It happened with Unification, and it's happening with The Burn. I'm starting to wonder if going 930 years into the future was a good idea. Maybe it should have only been 800 or 700 years.

300-400 would have been perfect, if it wasn't for ENT and VOY previously setting the bar where it is now, with the TCW being the cutoff before they could have a fresh start for DSC.
 
Looks like Kryptonite green to me. No accounting for monitor adjustment I guess :)
That could be a lot of it, yes. To some degree, the perception of color really is quite subjective, and can fall victim to additional in-between interference to further muddy the perception.

And then there's this cute little chart. I'm definitely the one on the right. :lol:

Well I'm no woman (I'd know), but Lime or Fresh Grass with the internal glow is what I see.
 
I suppose I'm seeing Sea Green/Turquoise on my end.

So... blue. :D :lol:

It's been a very long time, but yes. And it drives me batshit crazy when I do.

There are different levels of color-blindness. My dad probably had no idea how garish painting the house mustard yellow looked. Add in the same color AMC Matador and his turquoise Datsun B210.
 
Still look on the blue side to me. :shrug:
Can you see these numbers?
