Hikuro Posted December 29, 2024 Posted December 29, 2024 okay hold on, when I was on there yesterday there was no facial hair nor mipsy!
sh9000 Posted January 8 Posted January 8 https://www.startrek.com/news/star-trek-lower-decks-season-5-complete-series-home-release I might order the set.
Seto Kaiba Posted January 8 Posted January 8 I know I sure as hell will. I went into this one expecting I wouldn't like it, and boy did it ever grow on me. One of the only good things to come out of Kurtzman-era Star Trek.

STLD and Prodigy are the only two things I personally consider both good AND canon, more so the latter than the former, imo, but heads and shoulders above any of the live action stuff, especially the laughably bad/intelligence insulting/horribly conceived and written/acted/directed/edited garbage that is the overwhelming majority of NuTrek. Much like STP S3, the people behind Lower Decks and Prodigy mostly got what Star Trek is about and had respect, even when engaging in outlandish parody, for the IP's legacy and did not aim to denigrate, undermine or corrupt it into some grotesque 25%-different mutant MESSAGE-cudgel version aimed at (attempting at) pleasing a miniscule portion of a niche fandom nearly impossible to please... only managing to drive away the legacy fans whose support the property depends upon for its relevance and financial health, as the cratering in merchandize revenues can attest. Hopefully, Skydance will do a much better job at curating Star Trek than what's been done over the past decade; then again, the hangovers known as Section 31 and Starfleet Academy are still looming, even if relegated to alternate reality dreck if the scuttlebutt regarding Lower Deck's final episode is to be believed.

She reminded me a lot of Michael Burnham in all the worst ways. She was a mean-spirited, toxic, manipulative person in Starfleet and she seemed to enjoy preying on anyone who wasn't as bitter and hateful as herself. UNLIKE Michael Burnham, it quickly became apparent that she knew the kind of person she was and was still capable of being better. Lower Decks was a lot of fun not just because of the comedy, but because the characters still grow and develop in a fairly believable way for Star Trek.
Chronocidal Posted January 11 Posted January 11 Out of stock at the moment, but I hope it stays in production for a while to pick up a set.
