hopesdead@startrek.websiteto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•Paramount+ Announces Fifth and Final Season of Star Trek: Strange New WorldsEnglish12·20 days agoThink positively. We all knew this had to come to an end eventually. This is a prequel that leads into TOS.
Seán Ferrick of TrekCulture has pointed out that Game of Thrones’ final season was six episodes, half which were longer length. So there is a possibility that these episodes will be longer.
EDIT: I misspelled Seán’s name earlier.
hopesdead@startrek.websiteto [Moved to Piefed] Television@lemm.ee•This Is the Real Reason Why Documentaries Are So Popular NowEnglish3·23 days agoEspecially with true crime, the way things are presented could alter how the content is perceived. For example, Making a Murder took time to walk the audience through the entire trial (I’m not going to debate the perception the film makers left out important facts that influence the narrative).
On the flip side a more recent series like This Is the Zodiac Speaking, only focused on one suspect, never questioned the testimony of the children as being faulty memories or fact checked well known details about the crimes mentioned. My point is, this documentary was on a subject that was better well known and didn’t aim to present the children as telling their own side of events; it straight up makes the assumption what they said must be true because they personally knew ALA. On top of this, they featured Robert Graysmith, the author of the book Zodiac which is well known for being factually inaccurate, and doesn’t challenge his research. And at the end, the film makers failed to get the DNA test results for a test they commissioned. What deadline existed that they couldn’t tell the viewer what the result was?
Sorry, that documentary in particular irritates me for how factually inaccurate and onesided it was. My overall point is that true crime in particular seems to just be looking for whatever will get views. Not a lot of the documentaries that have come out in this period have produced well made series or ethically honest content. Is it entertainment or is it bringing awareness to what occurred or the people affected?

hopesdead@startrek.websiteOPto Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•To whom it may concern.English3·26 days agoSpecifically in “Balance of Terror” he is telling Stiles that it was unacceptable to judge Spock for looking the same as a Romulan, fully knowing he was a different species.
EDIT: in STVI, I think the context is being angry for the death of David.

At least I wasn’t attending a bat’leth tournament.

Unfortunately, unless I planned a better day to Agua Dulce (the city which Vasquez Rocks is located), I wouldn’t dare make the drive again. On a Saturday, there was so much traffic for the 64 mile drive.

A talking Moopsy? Lol, I saw someone at STLV last year who modified theirs to do just that.
