Strange New Worlds Intro

Easy. Space:1999, season 2 theme. That'll kick loose even the worst Big Pharma jingle. Problem is, you're stuck with a Space:1999 theme in your head. Not so bad if you think of Catherine Schell, though.

 

Nobody writes theme music anymore like the folks from the past.

Those kinda great Movie/TV theme composers are few and far between now-a-days.

You only get a Goldsmith, Jarre, Silvestri or Williams once in a lifetime.

 

Ahh...the Filmation music library... Heroic cues across the board serving Captain Marvel, Andrea Thomas/Isis, and Mr Spock...

 

Yeah, they accidentally labelled him as Rebecca Romijn so they took it down and fixed it lmao
.

 

Rather the prodigy intro.. Just sounds better.thr Snw.. It's not .. Unique..

Looks like a fan made intro.. Meh.

A 2 steps from hell music would have sounded more epic..

Edit: Fixed to perfection..

 

I'm thinking the former, like Law & Order: Criminal Intent: "Created by Gene Roddenberry, Developed by ..." They added some stuff, they took away some stuff, but fundamentally it's still a series that comes directly from "The Cage." The WGA has rules about this sort of thing.

 

Nigh on perfect with the sound off. Bravo.

And 2 Steps From Hell can make hemorrhoid ointment commercial music sound epic. It's no stretch for them.

 

Faith of the heart doesn't work with the visuals.

 

This works surprisingly well.

 

Nice. Reminds me of the Voyager opening visually.

 

Honestly, I found this music to be

a.) exciting
b.) epic
c.) uplifting
d.) adventurous

Different tastes and all. But I'm sorry we diverge here.

 

Same. I'd add that I found it highly evocative of the old franchise themes but with more gravitas and a touch of bittersweetness among the generally uplifting sound. Not generic at all.

 

Yep, it is great! I would say the space shots in the middle might be a little uninventive but Enterprise part and planets part are giving the viewer the pure essence of the franchise.

 

LOL I already posted that on page 2. Now there's a couple new ones with the TNG and Prodigy themes.

 

Beautiful sequence, up there with Voyager and Prodigy as the best Trek opening visuals imo. Russo’s theme is nothing special.

 

I watched an episode of Prodigy. Honestly, nothing impressed me enough to watch a second. The theme tune was okay, the CG was cartoonish - not really a flaw in a cartoon, is it? A "meh" kids' show. Lower Decks is all right. I've seen about half of the first season of that one.

I am so fucking tired of this joke - the "OMG, they dubbed 'Faith of The Heart' over another intro ROFL" thing. It's getting to be up there with all the cute videos of Enterprise blowing Discovery to smithereens, or TOS Enterprise blowing JJprise to smithereens, or TOS Enterprise blowing TNG Enterprise to...okay, you get it.

I guess for some people this shit never gets old. It's like yelling out "Shut up, Wesley!" Super lame, but if you laugh at it they let you in the clubhouse.

 

I watched the intro on the big screen TV last night, the way I guess it's intended to be seen. The CG-ness of some of it is diminished considerably as distinct from displaying it on my computer monitor.

I also see, from the clips at the end of the twenty-two minute featurette with Wil Wheaton, that they have a metric shit-ton of elaborate space effects in this series, many of them pretty amazing. That does affect what you spend on any given shot, money and time-wise.

 

Not a fan of the music. It’s all over the place. so far Prodigy has the best theme song out of all these new Trek shows.

 

Visuals look fine to me. Not a fan of the thumping baseline in the theme.

 

Only at the beginning with those closeups did they look bad. Looked like they were from a ps2 game.
