Please make a review 😅

A much hyped fanfilm from the post Enterprise/pre-Disco days where fan films were all we had to keep us going. "Renegades" had a good amount of hype around it because it had a real budget and the cast they managed to get. Unfortunately money can't buy taste and the actual script is pretty bad.

Is something finally going to federate with bluesky?

I hope we get a de-aged Shatner appearance (I don't actually hope that... I think)

It really feels like they watched Star Trek Renegades and were like "YES".

I echo what you said elsewhere, if I get a goofy action movie (or better) then I won't be disappointed and it will be nice to see the Discovery-era one last time.

Scott Bakula is a good actor but he sold the adventurous naivete of S1-2 Archer much better than the moody and distraught Archer in S3. Thankfully season 4 went back to the original spirit.

Why does the other persons energy matter? If someone requests not to be called something and you continue to call them that then you are kinda being a jerk. It's not the same as correcting someone's grammar.

Haha, Ulrich I noticed you on several threads the past few days correcting misinformation, thank you for your service.

Asking for a friend

 

"Sure, The Borg have been a bit of a problem. Their tendency toward mass assimilation and the stripping of individuality and personal freedom doesn’t exactly jibe with our idea of what makes a great leader. But let’s be honest. Kathryn Janeway hasn’t been perfect."

 
 

I quit as the top mod of /r/StarTrek in 2021 in protest against Reddit's platforming of vaccine disinformation subreddits. Then in 2023 during the API protest, myself and several of the remaining mods (including mods from /r/Risa and /r/DaystromInstitute) started StarTrek.website.

The consensus I've seen on Lemmy has been largely "we don't need to spread the word about our open platforms because Reddit will do something stupid again and there will be another protest and Lemmy will be promoted there". So I hope we can take this as a lesson that we can't rely on platforms being shitty in order to switch society over to open standards. We need to do our best to make Lemmy/Mbin/Piefed good as well as known.
