It's like Gunn forgot how to write for an individual character and NEEDS an ensemble now.

This is going to be awful and I'm kinda looking forward to gloating when it is.

No, I'm saying it'd be relegated to the same position on the shelf. Metaphorically. It looks like trash and I have zero hope for this when it's giving me the exact same low-energy, low-effort garbage vibes as Superman Returns did.

I'm apparently the only one who thinks this looks fucking awful. The suit looks like shit which is a pretty major no no. The effects look on par with Ryan Reynolds Green Lantern. The casting leaves an enormous amount to be desired. I've never seen the chick playing Lois be believable in anything, nevermind good. The dude playing Clark looks like a teenager and the guy playing Lex somehow looks worse than Eisenberg which I didn't think was possible, also looking like a damn child. They decided to full on rape the John Williams theme into something horrific. And that's just criticising what's in the trailer, not the trailer itself which is barely watchable garbage that gives way too fucking much information about the movie away.

James Gunn is hit or miss, rarely with a meh. This does not look like a fucking hit to me. This looks like a confusing jumble of a movie and trying to slap the same Guardians of the Galaxy energy to it. Please explain to me when the hell Superman ever had the same energy as Peacemaker or Guardians of the Galaxy?

This is a joke. It isn't Superman. It's a James Gunn self-congratulatory, masturbatory piece of garbage. This looks like shit. Just another cranked out Superman movie I'll put on the shelf next to Superman Returns.

Cool.

In what capacity does that apply to my protesting Lemmy.world's frankly idiotic stance of blocking discussion of jury nullification?

Alright, that got a fucking lol out of me. Hard.

No no, I'm cheering the killing.

1. If Jury Nullification is legal and allowed, then frankly covering that exact thing up is an abomination and y'all should be utterly ashamed of yourselves. Since when is Lemmy in the habit of backing an establishment while not allowing people involved to know the full picture? Genuinely shameful and disgusting behavior.

2. Yeah, I'm not going to ever remove anything from my communities relating to that or to the violence against the CEO. There is no difference between Brian Thompson and any other mass murderer on the planet. Are you asking me to protect Hitler or Pol Pot as well from criticisim and glee over their death? No? Then I am sure as fuck not going to do it for this guy.

So glad we didn't get this ugly garbage heap

I mean it makes sense, right?

Oh god how did I forget to write a tweet about her...

And then when they do make a serialized show instead of an episodic one everyone complains about people being moody due to the trauma established previously ¯_(ツ)_/¯

A 2013-2016 British Sitcom starring Ian McKellen, Derek Jacobi and Iwan Rheon called Vicious. Ian and Derek play an old gay couple who've been together for 50 years and are, well, vicious to each other. Fucking hysterical show if for no reason than to see Ian camp it up. Also really appreciate grabbing two famous gay actors to play the parts.

Cannot help but love how good they are.

Edit: Of course there was no response. Because there are no examples. It's just a dog whistle for bigots.

Because Wesley was a stand in for Genes son basically. Wesley had a lot of unearned praise or unearned moments where he ends up saving the day or having a vital role in something that he just shouldn't. The other characters had earned their place but he didn't. He was just annoying and there. The reason I don't like him is because he just feels like a fanfic character that was shoved into the show.

I've heard so many complaints about Discovery over the years. Hundreds.

Cheap is a new one.

DO IT YOU PUSSIES

Discovery did update the look of the Ferengi for the 32nd Century, looked kinda cool in my opinion. I can handwave a lot of stuff from Season 3 onwards of Discovery because it's nearly a thousand years ahead of what TNG/VOY/DS9 are at. Things gonna change so meh, tweaks like that don't bother me so much.

I will 100% admit to absolutely fucking hating Discovery when it was originally launched. The Klingons were one of the reasons although not a primary one. Took a while for me to come around and even now I'm like "Eh, I don't mind it." I did appreciate trying to alien them up a little bit more while trying to keep some stuff the same. Season 2 had an okay blend of that.

No. Fuck you. We reject him. We have standards.

Sincerely, the gay community.

I'm not a fan of Picard Season 2 but I will give it the argument that it only takes place over the course of like 2-3 days, just like most TNG episodes when you factor in warp speeds and all the time delays that are needed for the things talked about in the episodes.

I'm not sure where you're getting the green screen box thing for Discovery. They didn't use a whole lot of green screen. They built fairly massive sets that were all reused for other shows. The screens that you see in the show as well, like the see through ones and the ones in the consoles, are not added in post. They mass bought those screens and they actually function in real life. Honestly the amount of CGI used in Discovery, at least outside of space based stuff and effects like transporters/phasers/progammable matter is pretty low. Even then the green screens that they did use were replaced by the video wall for Season 4 and 5.
