Who actually wants to watch negresses for extended periods of time outside sickening fetish porn?

...

what did she mean by this?

...

Someone should get on their black twitter account and complain that she's lightskinned.

I hope they replace every actor with niggers, just so it annoys you cuck posters.

AYO HOL UP

The hair makes up for it.

...

They're going to get really upset when the Miles O'Brien of the show ends up being the most popular character.

AYO

HOL' UP

this confirms sasha will die in the second half of season 7 of the walking dead

Thank God. She's the most boring person on the whole show. Even Spencer had more personality than her. Even the fat chick in charge of rations was better. She's about as much use as tits on a boar, which makes her perfect to captain a starship in [current year].

What is her wink wink to the audience going to be on her character's death episode?

A half breed? I'm sure REAL stronk black womyn will not appreciate a half breed representin' them. Dem jew-boys in hollywood best be watchin' themselves!

so it's clear that casting black women as the lead is the universal sign that a show is about to tank hard and they're banking on social justice points.

...

she's in the "tunnel of death", as i like to call it, in the intro credits. they fucked up in season 5 by doing this with beth and tyreese, and all through season 6 SMG's name was there, biding its time.

Weird too because Star Trek already had a black lead and a women lead all throughout the 90's! How do they bank on SJW points?

that didn't count, it's not canon anymore, kelvin universe is the only universe, how dare you you cis het white male, fuckyoufuckyoufuckyoufuckyou racist sexist vile cis pig scum i bet you voted trump, huh?

But STD takes place in the prime universe.

you don't expect SJWs to actually know the difference, do you? they just go by the most recent shit.

I am predicting that people will be nostalgic for Enterprise after the first season.


Les Moonves, the CBS CEO, told investors that the international rights to STD have already paid for the first season. This is probably why they are trying to use the show to anchor their stupid CBS All Access Netflix style service, which will tank. The money made from the foreign distribution rights could keep this zombie show alive for years.

how about you actually judge the content first before going off

Even more gross than all the other pointless attempts at getting Geordi a love interest.

...

Bryan Fuller, the guy behind STD, has had a black female Star Trek fantasy for 15-20 years at this point. Originally he wanted Angela Basset as the Captain and Rosario Dawson as the XO. He is quoted as saying it would be "badass". The only motivation I can see is either he is a cuck, or he is a cuck.

Because it's a black female this time. Although she isn't nearly fat enough.

Enterprise's biggest sin was just being kind of boring. You can do way worse than Enterprise.

So a guaranteed failure.

Do you think the producers throw the fans a bone?

He's a faggot.

This show might be watchable if they make her wear one of those skimpy TOS dresses the female crewmembers wore.

Honestly, as far as black female actresses go I'm just happy she's not ugly. Other than the hair she's not bad in that shot, though I'd have to see full body shots to see if her figure isn't horrible.

However, this says she's the lead, but (not clicking) is she the captain? I don't mind her being helmsman, ship doctor, etc, but the captain regardless of race or species should always be someone older than this, mid 40's at least.

As everyone's already pointed out though this is a bad sign. A good show leads with it's concept, when you're leading with the "diversity" of your cast and "progressiveness" of your decisions it means you have no concept. It's the same problem they're having at Marvel (the comics) where instead of telling stories they focus on marketing points and political endgoals and write the story around that. Why is Carol Danvers being made a major character? Because we plan to make a movie about her. Why is Iron Man being replaced? Because it's progressive to put a black female in his place. Why are the X-Men dying and the Fantastic Four cancelled? Because we don't currently have the movie rights. It's never "Wouldn't it be cool if X and Y happened?" it's "I need X to be black and Y to be gay. Write a story that makes that happen."

Red flags, all around.

Is she supposed to be the Captain? I thought that was unconfirmed. If she is the Captain that is horrible. That Carrot Top movie had a better reason to put Carrot Top in charge than

"Lead" implies captain. If the lead isn't the captain, this isn't going to work. It wasn't going to work either way because it's only on CBS All Access, but very little of what's been revealed so far leads me to believe it's going to work.

I've also seen absolutely no promotion of the series for all of the NFL, SEC football, FedEx cup golf, and college basketball I've seen on the network since the first teaser was released. Same with 60 Minutes, which I watch religiously. I even watch from a station owned by CBS, so I know it's not some affiliate thing, either.

Well, never mind about the dark chocolate eye candy idea, her tits are practically non-existent and her hairstyles seemed to get uglier with every picture I saw. The OP picture is way better than her average look.

Seriously, she had normal-looking hair in maybe one image, and everything either that she either looked like an extra from Beasts of No Nation or like her hair was designed via committee by a panel of tumblr users.

I'm starting to understand the whole weave thing.

Last I heard, the lead is not the captain this time. I don't give a shit about this series if they stick with that plan.

I wish they had just given us the captain Worf show. They could have had so many cameos from TNG and DS9. But, appealing to Star Trek fans is not their goal.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh


I just want Star Trek to continue on the timeline going forward. Ever since Voyager ended we have had nothing but prequels, reboots, and remakes. It is tiresome at this point. Worf is retired and that is a good thing. A post Voyager series with this fellow in my picture is what we need.

No wonder they're so angry all the time.

...

is she the chief whore from Westworld?

No.


Post Voyager needs to happen.

There is one place to find this kind of content. What are your opinions on the storylines in Star Trek Online?

I don't play free to play games.

I guess it was always bad.

This is extremely similar to what I envision.

Before the series began I'd want to have a meeting with a team of prospective writers. Each one would be tasked with coming up with at least one new species of aliens, but the more the better. I'd evaluate the ideas, and any writers who couldn't come up with at least one concept I liked would be fired. Whoever came up with the most interesting concepts would be put to the head of the pack.

We open on a space station similar to DS9. Delegations from various empires are there, witnessing the unveiling of a new technology fairly similar to stargates, giant portals which can connect any two points in space, with the only limitations being that the size of the two portals must match. A commentary on how since the Federation has formed as advanced as they are, new technologies all seem to be coming from outsider races.

The only other limitation is that you can't simply project the portal into space, a ship will have to manually travel to the location and set it up. After trade negotiations open up, the race that created this technology decides on a competition to decide who will ultimately get the contract.

Four ships must each travel to a different corner of one of the quadrants and set up a portal there. A Federation ship, a Klingon ship, a Ferengi vessel and a Dominion vessel. As part of the agreement, each must travel through a sector of space other than that they're native to, and the four empires agree not to interfere with one another's efforts (which of course they will anyway.)

The first season would primarily focus on the journeys of these four ships, and jump from one to another. Three out of four of the perspectives would be alien, and completely different from what we're used to seeing. There will be a mercenary ship consisting largely of humans -some genetically modified- operating outside of the Federation along with other races who will serve as a recurring adversary to one of the ships, but in such a way as we grow to like them through the course of the season. The Ferengi scheme, cheat and trade their way through their quadrant with a lot of hired help, the Klingons alternate between stealthily pressing forward and then dropping out of cloak to fight something when demanded by honor or boredom respectively. The Dominion plots a course that takes them straight through Borg space, and on top of that discover a few episodes in they're being sabotaged by agents of Section 31.

Three of the portals would be set up successfully, can't decide which will fail, but how they died will be left somewhat a mystery to set up a later plot with a new antagonist race.

The second season would mostly explore this new status quo with three of the four quadrants connected, a second expedition being made to the fourth, new portals being set up everywhere, and revisiting old plots in these new circumstances, like how would a confrontation with the Voth end up with them against the entire Federation instead of just one ship? There would be episodes following up with each of the crews, and several focusing on the mercenary ship, but also there would be "if you can keep it" episodes dealing with the federation keeping various races from destroying these newly built portals, and of course at least one episode where one is successfully destroyed and the area has to be defended long enough to repair it while cut off from the Federation. The ship sent to set up the fourth portal would discover what happened to the ship that failed on the first expedition, and who or what destroyed them.

A recurring undercurrent through the series would be how the previously very minor race that created the portals would dramatically change through the new sudden wealth and power they gain, with ideological arguments among them that their people are becoming sefish, lazy and hedonistic and talk of them essentially now controlling the Federation.

The next would of course be full-scale conflict in all four quadrants with who or whatever destroyed the ship from the first season. Something Lovecraftian and enigmatic.

Here is my money, I would watch the shit out of that. Fuck yes.

I've seen that grey dress before…

ALMOST

Probably because Sisko was made to be a character instead of BLACK CAPTAIN.

Yeah, the people who control Trek have a concept, they just hate it. The Star Trek concept is the same one its always been. It's not complicated. A weekly morality tale plays-out on a naval-metaphor ship full of archetypal characters who visit strange worlds. When the writers are bored or run-out of grist for their morality mill, add time travel or parallel universes then hit the reset button at the end of the episode. That's the formula.

Honestly, they began to fuck with the special sauce all the way back in the 80's when they gave up on Phase II and opted to shift the whole thing 75 years into the future unnecessarily. You could see then that they were insecure about the core of Star Trek, but just like they were wrong to cancel TOS after 3 seasons, they were wrong to monkey with the basics starting with TNG. The lack of insight into their own project is astonishing. TNG should have been *literally* the next generation launching the Enterprise-B doing pretty much the same shit.

tbh, it's the Kirk/Uhura kiss that the doomed Star Trek… not because 'muh miscegenation' but because it was too potent an act of proto-SJW fan service. It made too many people think "oh Star Trek is about radically advancing progressive politics" and it distracted from/deluded/overshadowed what actually makes the show work.. which is stuff like Kirk-Spock-McCoy / Warrior-Priest-Physician and perennial truths told in space.


again, too late. they set the precedent for time period shifting with TNG and it was a dumb move. Star Trek is weak science fiction and a joke when it comes to canon and continuity. The people who make the decisions for this franchise literally give zero shits about it. It's just another property or project or acting gig. In fact, they look down on us for caring.

Oh, and despite all the progressive politics in TOS, they still think the show is grossly racist, mostly because of cultural "stereotyping", so you'll never get anything like TOS in a non-neutered fashion.


nigger, just write your own story in your own sci-fi universe like so many other faggots. The sooner you accept that calling and embark on it, the less bitter you will be later in life when you become a wizard and you realize that NONE OF THIS SHIT MEANS ANYTHING. Star Trek… Star Wars… video games… geek culture… none of it means anything. The entire point of the entertainment industry is to capture our impulse to find/create meaning and debase it / divert it into things like tits and laserblasts and base power/revenge fantasies.

Unless you intend to start a religion and fight for it against the myriad forces that will align against you, you better not aspire to anything else. That's what George Lucas realized I think which is why he half-assed 3 more films to make good on his threat and then peaced the fuck out. He wasn't willing to give Star Wars meaning. Do you intend to give Star Trek meaning? If not, then why are you and so many others prattling on about events that ultimately have no point?

The only meaning Trek ever had was in its original formula at the top of my blog. Anything else is masturbation.

Considering she's got some white in her (because her looks like a woman's), this is a 15/10 for niggers.

Perhaps she's wondering why u a cracka ass cracka.

What's the issue? Star Trek has always been communism in space and now we're getting a more modern retelling. I don't get why Looney Tunes get triggered so easily…Ima make a comic bout this.

Because before it was white guys and jews running space communism. Now it's nigger running space communism. Niggers can't even advance out of the stone age. Their construction skills rival that of beavers. What you are seeing is a rejection of the negress because people know subconsciously that this is stupid. Kike Leonard Nimoy as space communist enforcer makes sense because kikes can be smart. White women Captain is really stretching the premise because women. Now make that women a nigger and you see the problem.

The only funny thing about this sketch is that the filming model looks like the Ralph McQuarrie concept for the Enterprise Refit.

Could they have picked a more niggery nigger?

I want to drill for oil

A post-VOY series would be a pain in the ass to make, especially if you want to write something coherent when you have all these constraints (every season of ENT, TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY + movies) in terms of story, races, ships, costumes and design (the problem with the post-TOS shows is that everything look cheesy because they wanted to stay close to the 60s vision of the future).

There's one way to make a Trek show while being free to do whatever you want: the Kelvin timeline. Sure there are 3 shitty movies but you're free to build cultures, civilizations, design/architecture, technology, etc. without having to rely on a gigantic bible that was made 40 years ago.
To me, the JJ-verse is a huge opportunity to build a vision of Star Trek by the people of 2000s.

test

Or just set the show 100 years after Voyager so none of the old canon really matters. Just like what TNG did.

"Because I'm sexist AND racist"

*sigh* Didn't you learrn your Ghost lesson?

AYO HOL' UP!
ARE YOU GOYS SEEING THIS?

Holy fuck you can see everything in that dress

SUM FINNA

STARSHIP CAPTAINS

AN'

Still better than Discovery.

Sci fi post 2010 is a progression of rewrites of the old interracial kiss scene from Star Trek with Kirk slowly turning into a nigger and Uhura morphing into a white girl. No technological marvels of any practically or scientific plausibility; just a light show cast around the cuckening to help the masses digest their brainwashing. Burn Hollywood to the ground.

practicality*

That was my whole thing with ENT. I have all the ST series stored away, and routinely go back to TNG and DS9 and even VOY once in a while. TOS is kind of campy, and if you actually watch it all from beginning to end, there's actually only a couple dozen good episodes (out of 80). But I'll even go back to TOS before ENT.

I think the problem with ENT was that it was the first Trek show that looked back instead of covering new ground. We all knew, more or less, how it was going to end before it even began. And the break in continuity with the NX-01 appearing seemingly more advanced than the NCC-1701 kind of took you out of the moment.

When TNG first came on the air in '87, everybody was naysaying it. How can there be Star Trek without Kirk, Spock, McCoy, and Scotty? The new crew was likeable enough (minus Wesley, IMO), but you can tell the first few seasons were directly modeled off of TOS:

• Monster/alien/planet/anomaly of the week;
• All the actors really hammed it up with over-dramatizing everything, just like TOS (a habit Frakes never quite broke);
• Alien worlds amounted to color-fade backdrops, with piles of sand and/or a few boulders and/or some fake trees [e.g., S01E22] ;
• "Aliens" were often just humans wearing funny clothes. Throughout all the series, it was only toward the end of TNG's run (and a couple seasons into DS9 and the start of VOY) that more and more aliens were more than just obvious humans with weird noses or foreheads [S01E03, E07, E10, E13…]
• (To be fair, S01E08 introduced us to the Ferengi, a pretty serious make-up job, plus a few other one-off races - snake people, bear people, etc.)

It wasn't even the fault of the actors. The special effects are the best in a ST series to date. The writers had a steep hill to climb to make the show interesting, and they didn't quite cut it. Some of the story lines are even somewhat compelling, but a few good episodes and a couple interesting stories does not a successful series make.

Plus, I think probably people were just suck of Star Trek in general at that point. Not only ST, but Science Fiction in general. If you were around when all these shows were on the air, you might remember the total sci-fi saturation on TV those days:

• TNG, 87-94
• DS9, 93-99
• VOY, 95-01
• Babylon 5, 94-98
• Farscape, 99-03
• SG1, 97-07
• Andromeda, 00-05
• Seaquest DSV (Star Trek in a sub, basically), 93-96
• Lexx, 97-02
• Earth Final Conflict, 97-02
• Tek War, 94-96
• Space Above and Byond, 95
• Plus all the movies and shit to go along with all that, and unrelated sci-fi shows like Sliders, X-Files, etc.

[2/2]

I think by the time ENT came on in '01, people were just burned out on sci-fi in general, and specifically with people on spaceships fighting everyone in the galaxy.

This new ST is going to suck balls for two reasons:
1. It's been done to death already, in TV shows, movies, books, comics, cartoons, you name it.
2. It's probably not even going to be about people on spaceships fighting everyone in the galaxy, per se, but more about pushing the multicult/faggot/tranny/commie agenda.

Look at a show like, say, Law & Order SVU to see what you'll get. The first eight or so seasons held to the tried & true L&O formula - half the show about solving a crime, and half the show about the court battle that follows. But now, every episode is some kind of liberal social commentary: anti-gun, pro-big-government, pro-faggot, pro-tranny, pro-race-mixing, the criminal is almost always a white guy, the ham-fisted dialogue connects all the dots for us plebs so we know exactly why Hollyweird thinks X is good or why Y is bad… It's psychological warfare.

We've already had a taste of what the merchant's updated vision of Star Trek is with the latest film series.

That's all this new ST is going to be - futuristic TRANNIES AND NIGGERS AND TRANNY NIGGERS ARE GOOD, GOY. THEY ARE JUST LIKE YOU. PUT THIS PENIS IN YOUR MOUTH AND/OR YOUR BUM, GOY.

I suppose it's possible they won't go full propaganda mode with it, but there's already been interviews and talk about the direction they want to take it saying that's exactly what they have planned.

Maybe it'll be good, or even just alright. Probably, it won't be.

I would watch this, if it were a satire.

The U.S.S. Pozboat is on an extended mission to hunt down a pre-enlightenment war criminal, Dr. Samuel Hyde, who lead the Race War, along with Khan, but made the shitskin augments get on another boat during the great exodus from Earth.

Rear Admiral Wendy Crusher (post op Wesley, so brave) and hir diverse crew go from planet to planet, attempting to stop Dr. Hyde's rampage through the galaxy. Beleaguered engineer, Miles O'Brien, still forced to pay alimony in a post-capitalist society, is working past retirement age, keeping the ship flying and solving all the issues caused by the ungrateful crew during their capricious jaunt around the galaxy. He also has to attend mandatory sensitivity training with the ship councilor, because he is a fucking white male.

During the season finale, he teams up with Sam and turns off the safety protocols in the holosuite, resulting in several fatalities when Admiral Crusher's Giga-Worf cuck program comes to life and rapes half the crew.

The ayyy lmao at the end of TNG "Future Imperfect" was the pretty much the pinnacle of the series. Big Balok-tier high point imho.

I want to see that.


Star Trek could be made great again if they radically changed to politics. Basically adopt European right wing philopshy and destroy the Federation. The Federation is a multi-culti disaster waiting to happen. The Klingons, Romulans, and Cardassians all have large empires and they are one race. Why not Earth. Also hard sci-fi elements need to be reintroduced into the series. Or they need to go campy otherwise all we will get is another boring character show emulating Game of Thrones on starships.

Wew lad, this is 2016.

...

would bang tbh

What were you saying about Ambassador Tamalok?

The world's problem will be solved by handing civilization over to the non-whites goy.

I love how "progressives" always think they are at the pinnacle of tolerance/freedom/liberty, always failing to realize the slippery slope is real and actually a conveyor belt.

Wait…Rapp?

that's not even remotely true in any way shape or form

There's a great documentary from '14 about that, specifically as applies to TNG, called Chaos on the Bridge. imdb.com/title/tt2880448/ (there's torrents, if that's your thing; might even be on YT or liveleak or something.)

Basically, Roddenberry was out of his mind on blow most of the time, the studio actually owned the show and Roddenberry had almost zero creative input beyond the basic concept and the design of the ship. The writers were always pissed because the studio had a full-time yes-man on hand to censor and/or steer the scripts as they were being written. There was a writer's strike, a cast strike, a flood or fire or some other disaster that destroyed a bunch of shit. The way the actors tell it, every time they showed up to film an episode, they thought it might be their last day on the job, as the show was literally always on the chopping block, about to be canceled.

The character won't be just a homosexual among other things, it will be GAY.
