Starfleet Academy Official Trailer

I just wish we could have seen other sets in Picard season 3. Though I guess technically most of them blew up in Generations. Ten Forward though didn't.
 
i’ve only finally watched the trailer for this and honestly i’m excited. I’m in my first year of uni so it lowkey aligns perfectly with the show, i’m hoping it isn’t necessarily for tweens or just teen angst or anything. I love the idea of starfleet so i’m hoping it actually focuses on that aspect and not too much on personal drama for the sake of it. It comes out when I finish exams, and honestly I need a show to be excited about and invested in and it’s going to be me in my star trek hoodie against the world watching this.

I’m also hoping it doesn’t get too much hate from an older audience when it’s meant for a younger one. Like… they’re trying to make star trek continue into new generations so they need to pivot to those younger people, idk i’m hoping it gets that chance without too many people dogging on it.

Also hoping it doesn’t have that american instagram model uncanny attractive actor vibe that american tv tends to have

According to Tachyon Pulse, you can expect a lot of teen angst/interpersonal drama. It's also not apparently made for "trekkies" which I take to mean an older audience. According to him, from someone whose already seen the season, it was made to appeal to zoomies. But if you read the vast majority of reactions to the trailers/sneak peeks under the videos, that audience doesn't seem very interested. Might appeal to some of them, but I suspect not many. But who knows - maybe it'll surprise everybody and be okay.

At least you don't have to wait long to find out just who this show was made for. I'm betting the majority opinion that its made for zoomies and is chock full of teen angst is correct. Gentleman's bet?
 
this youtuber is very clearly a liar just making stuff up.
That's a bold claim. Any concrete reason for it, or is it just "i disagree, so they must be a liar"?


Tachyon Pulse:

  • Said Sony was going to buy Paramount (Didn't happen).
  • Missed the Stargate reboot.

The guy's "sources" are blowing smoke in his face.:shifty:
:lol: When did clairvoyance become a prerequisite for credibility?


Unless there's a credible reason to doubt the source, all that matters is the substance. Attacking the messenger is poor sportsmanship.

There's no reason to trust them. Unearned platform is unearned and can be dismissed just as easily.
 
Who cares?

Are you going to watch it? That's the question.
I'll watch the premier, then it depends. If its zoomie angst then no - that kind of content doesn't interest me. If there's something to it, then probably.

As to who cares - well, anyone who wants trek and not 90210, I would guess.

I have Trek.

If people have prejudged it then it will be disappointing no matter what it actually does.

I've never seen more that one episode so I've no idea. what that means. I know it was a drama centered around teens.

It is not doubting the source when it is doubting the very existence of a source.

In order for him to have a source that has seen the entire season it would have to be someone on the production side and not just a simple day worker either. This person would then have to decide to violate their NDAs and put their career in jeopardy and risk legal backlash to share this information with one particular youtuber. A youtuber who does not engage in any official function and one whose track record of claims of inside sources has repeatedly proven to be entirely fictitious.

If deduction is not enough grounds for dismissal then the axiom once a liar always a liar should suffice.

A fair critique, especially regarding an insider putting their ass on the line for a small youtube channel.

That said, I looked into the podcast and found nothing to suggest they are liars. Not journalists by any stretch, just opinionated fans like the rest of us. With a channel. And probably some sources.

I looked into the Sony claims made by the podcast and found them to have merit; Sony did publicly express interest in Paramount, with formal bids that made headlines. The podcast also started talking about a stargate reboot in 2024, which were confirmed just recently to be in pre-production, with the reveal having indicated it was being planned 18 months ago.

I don't know the podcast well. I may have watched three or four of their videos. Its entirely possible this forum has experience with it giving bad info. But I couldn't find any.

I get the sentiment though. There are a lot of grifters with channels that claim "insider knowledge" that are full of shit.

Next time I'll start with "random youtuber says" so I don't trigger the forum police :p
