/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

I'm ok with his Star Trek movies because he admitted to not having liked Star Trek or watched much of it until he got the job as director for it, and he at least watched enough to learn that he could set it in an alternate timeline that doesn't fuck with the main shit that people actually like; making it super easy to ignore.

I don't know if he is any good as I can't get past the generic plots and can't see anything but lens flare.

Heh. J.J. Abrams and lens flare, meet your match, Zack Snyder and Slow-Mo

[–] TigrisMorte@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

There is indeed a school of cinema devoted to that.

All he has are those two things and mystery boxes that are empty.

JJ is a hype man with nothing to support it quality wise, but he does seem to make things that make money so Hollywood loves him.

I'll never forgive him for undoing Rian Johnson's work on Star Wars. Johnson's take was more on line with Lucas'.
