Wife started a huge Star Trek kick. She watched Discovery because the main actor was on the Walking Dead and has been sucked in to the Trek lore. So after catching up on Discovery we started watching Picard... 1 episode only but it was ok-ish.
For me it was reliving my TNG memories and my wife seemed to have enjoyed it enough while she waits on the next Discovery episode

By reilo Go To PostLovecraft Country is really confused as to what type of show it wants to be. And it's kinda bad (4 episodes in) handling their character's backgrounds and motivations.Nah it’s not confused. that’s exactly what the show is
Random shit the creator just wanted to put on tv. Some of it hits, some of it misses. Often from scene to scene. 6 and 7 are the standouts as they are pretty solid front to back
That... what? "Random shit the creator wanted on tv".
That only works in Black Mirror or Twilight Zone that has a theme but not overarching plot but this is clearly trying to have a single plot and it's missing the mark as it jumps from a monster of the week ghost story to Indiana Jones cave expedition to weird religious cult shit.

Yeah I definitely felt it loosened at the seams as episodes wanted to race to the next idea without explaining much on the how and why. The scary kids in ep.8 fucked me up tho.

Maybe they'll right the ship during season 2, but they'd have to completely change directions
lol
discovery is shameless TOS fanservice, Picard is shameless TNG fanservice with some DS9 and Voyager thrown in
And that's all it is, just superficial references because I sure as hell don't think the writers ever watched star trek sober

Sisko is getting his own Picard series I heard
First Picard episode was ok, but it's all downhill from there, with one or two decent-ish episodes.
Discovery S3 has been ... inoffensive thus far, which is a compliment compared to S2. Still need to watch ep 3.

Season 3 is basically Star Wars tho 😂
its been trying to be star wars since 2009 (or earlier with the bad tng movies)
lower decks got some nice ideas at least

I’m not really disagreeing I just think starwarstrek is fun lol
And I mean ... I think all of the new start trek movies were better than the last Star Wars even considering this lol

star trek beyond was pretty fun, sad that i guess after into darkness no one cared so it bombed
into darkness is star trek's rise of skywalker

I binged and rewatched The Fresh Prince of Bel Air over the past 3 weeks...
Still one of the best sitcoms of all time. It's held up extremely well and at times feels like it's barely aged...from online dating, to being obsessed with technology (beepers at the time), to drug abuse, racial prejudices, vanity, and so on. It doesn't really feel like a product of its time.
Will Smith's physical comedy is also underrated.

By AlphaSnacks Go To PostI binged and rewatched The Fresh Prince of Bel Air over the past 3 weeks…Not really...that was the concern when he started taking movie roles was that he was only capable of doing physical comedy. He smartly stayed away from it, unlike Jim Carrey who got stuck in it

Jim Carrey is seemingly perfect for physical comedy though, his early standup was mostly him making faces and doing weird shit.
By Laboured Go To PostNew Mandalorian's up.
Was fun. Always like seeing Olyphant. Looks great too.
Waiting for the 4K HDR version to appear on distros, tho I might check out Apple TV+ free trial and then forget to cancel. Death by 1000 cuts.
zabo is always waiting, he's never where he wants to be.

Disney+ isn't even available here, can't find the app in the LG Store.
Let it be known that I tried to give them money. Distro it is.

How big are 4k versions?
By Shanks D Zoro Go To PostHow big are 4k versions?
About 4-5GB per ep.
By Laboured Go To PostAbout 4-5GB per ep.
Oh boy.
I still find it baffling that Disney has yet to launch here. I would jump on it instantly.
By Shanks D Zoro Go To PostOh boy.We only got it here in Portugal last month. They timed it perfectly to air S1 weekly as the last episode of S1 only went up last week.

Nice. Did you enjoy s1?
By Fenderputty Go To PostDisney + is basically the best 4K streaming content.Eh. Not if you want HDR. The tech breakdown of some of their contents HDR implementation is bad.
Disney+ was supposed to launch around March here... last I heard it's still planned for 2020, I think it will be $7,50 a month.

By diehard Go To PostSo i don't really have anything to watch.Mr robot
I guess i should watch this Mandalorian show then?
By diehard Go To PostSo i don't really have anything to watch.time to rewatch The Clone Wars
I guess i should watch this Mandalorian show then?
By inky Go To PostGod bless Favreau trying to save Kathy's messStar Wars is 600% better without fucking Jedi
Except for Solo and Rogue One
I see your point
Jedi/Sith are not the problem. The problem is people continuing to come along and make the force more powerful than what it originally was.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the next time we see force users they will be flying and we will have duels in the air.
