/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

Seriously asking, has he done anything decent since Cloverfield? Maybe Lost but... I never got the hype he had back in the day.

I'm sure he's talented, wouldn't be where he is, but still...

Lost was the fucking worst. I regret watching it.

I was honestly okay with it right up to the last episode. Then suddenly it was "the island is fixable with a cork" and "everyone's in heaven" and "no, we're never answering any of those other mysteries," the end.

I agree, but the fan theories that came out after redeemed it somewhat for me

That is way too many fan theories to explain away a bad ending.

JJ is great at build up Mystery boxes. He can craft this big world changing question and hype around it all.

Then, when it comes time to open the box, you find that it's a pair of old gym socks with more holes than sock.

You then find out that he spent the entire writing budget on more lens flares.

Or: When it’s time to open the box, be denies the box ever existed.

I really liked Super 8 when I saw it in theaters but I haven’t watched it since then

It was okay. I wouldn't call it exceptional. Out of the many sci-fi films that came out in 2011, it was one of them.

He created Fringe, so I'll give him that.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fringe is better then Lost and ill die on this hill.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I just finished another rewatch of Fringe, such an amazing show!

And how cool was it to have Leonard Nimoy in a sci-fi show again?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

Yes! So great as both a good guy and a bad guy too!
