Nothing wrong with emotional content of course. As I posted, it's the sheer amount and the way it's presented. It would be like if literally every single shot was a head-only shot showing closeup faces, and nothing else the entire episode...oh wait that was basically it! It's the way it's shot...

:lol: I guess those are the type of replies you give when you know I'm right but can't think of anything. Look, everybody knows all first season star trek is TRASH. I've already seen SNW S2 and it's much better. What's the point of denying the obvious. Encounter at Farpoint was unwatchable...

Another badly done episode. Instead of using the potential it had in the monster that is the gorn, they literally spend about 3/4 of all shots focused in on the characters' extreme fear and other emotions. It's ridiculous. The producers don't know what the hell they're doing. It's sci-fi not...

Your silly, babbling reply doesn't deserve attention, but on the above points: I already addressed the first, twice now. We're discussing the most prominent religions that involve hands-on, demanding gods. (Myself I couldn't care less about those, nor the minor ones - go waste your own life...

They're all the same for the most part, if they can be called a religion. They have imaginary comic book gods that want you to do stuff. If there are some other minor ones whose gods are completely hands off...who cares. I'm talking about the majority, and hence 'generally' above. But that's one...

Of course it is both oppressive and authoritarian, obviously. In fact supremely so since it talks about supreme supernatural authority. One must believe and act in accordance with nutty, random millennia-old, generally middle eastern moral code. Yeah, no thanks. We should be glad this...

I see, so it's bigoted to speak against bigotry itself - ok then. A common but absurd argument. The bigotry and calls for violence, various atrocious and immoral conduct are always baked in to the creation myths and texts themselves, despite followers' twisting into knots trying to show...

It is, then I proceeded to explain why. :D Each series has its stupid episodes - many, actually. SNW S1 is bad so far and I'm up to no.8 - most episodes are 1/5 or so, on my own rating scale. I happen to know S2 is better though! I guess as per Star Trek usual, S1 is always trash...

Not really, though I would still watch some of those episodes. Too many episodes are just cringe-fests. :hugegrin: If only for the terrible high school play-grade sets and production. Has nothing to do with budget or the era it was in, those producers/directors were clearly total idiots! Yup...

This episode was complete trash. 0.5/5. Its only redeeming point was the doctor's initial "What the hell?" on the bridge - not sure why that's so funny but it was the very best delivery! Reasons why episode is otherwise terrible: Fantasy episode super boring and childish - the show is meant...

No, rather when they see Data doing exactly the same acting, in the same way, on the same topic, then they think of it..as I did. It was terrible in both instances.

A question: in this episode and previous one "The Bounty", why the HELL would they bring back pretty much exactly the absolute worst TNG episode idea "Masks" where Data has multiple personalities?! This is literally the worst decision in the history of star trek. :lol: (Well among a host of...

As I believe I said above, simply not true. Nor did I even hate it, it was overall entertaining and far better than the trash of season 1 & 2. I just pointed out the really stupid, boring and cringeworthy aspects. Criticism is ok, you know! :techman:

Yeah because it makes no sense. It would be like using high volume levels throughout a show because loud = action. It's about dynamic range. Dark is dramatic only if there's something to compare it to - otherwise it's ineffective and depressing. Only terrible producers wouldn't understand this.

The funny thing is those box covers don't even feature Picard's son (whatever the hell his name was) - the main storyline of the entire season!! Season 3 had such potential with all the original characters, and it was actually ok. But the really dumb father/son filler trash was idiotic. We've...

Disagree. It's in the name. "Star" and "New Worlds" implies space exploration, not exploring deep interpersonal back stories that you can see in any other random show. It's cheap and easy. Character development is one thing but it should be only enough to support the underlying interesting...

Clearly this is the best episode of the series so far. They do actually know how to make interesting shows then! So then why all the filler? Singing episodes, deep back story about some characters which is boring and nobody cares about it. The Spock stuff is overdone - him suddenly showing...

Ah yes the old 'divert power from life support' idea which is used in every other star trek episode, seen here drawn out for several hours! It's a very shallow concept; needed a more epic or clever conundrum and solution, not this tired old story. Come on! Don't know if this is laziness or...

Not at all! I don't hate the show so far anyway - it's only been 2 episodes, but it does appear headed towards being a Discovery clone. Anyway I'm mostly commenting on just this episode. I know garbage when I see it and am not afraid to call it such - unlike the delusional trekkies here that...

You're right - a lot of those were terrible too, from what I recall. :lol: The Cage was unwatchable and so was Encounter at Farpoint.
