Spoilers Starfleet Academy General Discussion Thread

It does seem the show is depicting the War College as Starfleet's militant side, as represented by the War College's Commander being a stereotypical stiff and rigid spot and polish military officer.
To be honest I am not sure where the concept of Starfleet Marines started but I was under the impression those Starfleet officers in the black outfits that we saw in "Nor the Battle to the Strong" were suppose to be some of those Starfleet Marines.
People often believe that, but given they used naval ranks, that rules out them being Starfleet Marines. If they were Marines, they'd have army ranks. Now it is true the guys wearing the blue turtlenecks in the Nimbus III raid in TFF were referred to as Marines in behind the scenes sources, though that never made it onscreen. The only canonical onscreen reference to Starfleet Marines is a computer graphic in Prodigy.

What a minute, Joe. If what you're saying is true then I still don't care.

People be utilizing numbers like it proves something important to choices. :shrug:
 
I mean, that’s comparing apples and oranges. If one wants to actually watch SFA, they’re going to sit and watch it. Critical Drinker doesn’t exactly require all brain power or attention, especially since the guy burns many with each video.

And he’s a grifter.
Who isn't these days?
 
Critical Drinker's review of the first episode blew past SFA 4-day viewcount in hours.

Its hilarious. I just discovered his channel. Hes really funny.


Me, but I have a job that’s not in the “influencer” category.

Hes got a lot of subs and views. Makes a ton of money.

Put down the man's intelligence all you want it won't change the fact that hes good at analyzing movies and tv and is making a great living off of it. Also hes getting way way more views than STSA

Perhaps you would be happier posting in his comments section, your yells that the show is bad without any rational reasoning would fall on less deaf ears.

He’s really not. He has many factual errors in his videos and a lot of biases that often show themselves. Hmmm…. Naaaah.

And again, it’s how the content is consumed. People who are actually going to watch SFA (STSA is the dumbest possible abbreviation for this show) are going to sit and watch it. People who listen to the Drinker are likely going to do other things while engaging with his content. Like I said, apples and oranges.

Not me. Too busy with my hack office job, caring for chickens, kids, and such.

I suspect his views earn pennies rather than dollars.
It's also amazing that someone can find out the exact viewing figures of something from a global streaming service to be able to make what is surely a genuine point and not just some futile attempt to rally hate for a show without any legitimate criticisms. No one would ever do that, right?

Wait, are you suggesting there’s some sort of shenanigans from the SFA naysayers?

Surely not!
