I think PRO is a step in the right direction.
- Comment on "Star Trek is dying." How would you sell it to a younger audience? 2 weeks ago:
He would be a better judge of that observation. However I was at STLV last year and there was a sizable number of younger fans (especially those who are teenage). Maybe not a lot.
- Comment on "Star Trek is dying." How would you sell it to a younger audience? 2 weeks ago:
What is the age range they are classifying as young? Are they talking like teenagers or mid-20s to 30s? The thing with Star Trek that I think attributes to the non-fans not watching would be the stylization. Going back to the comparison of MCU, HP, and Star Wars: they all have something unique (be it the directing, photography, acting, writing, music, special effects, etc.) that if you pay attention for a significant period will find. Star Trek is no different. When you watch a MCU movie or TV show you probably see the sleek costumes and fast paced fight choreography. With HP, it was probably all the special effects, makeup and set design. For Star Wars it might be the writing, special effects and music.
I’m being non-specific here of course. Star Trek like I said is no different. There are visual and non-visual language being utilized that we find enjoyment in. For anyone not currently into these properties, it could be difficult to enjoy. Especially if you haven’t been someone who watched these properties from a young age or from the early years. For example, if you had someone exposed to only the Kelvin Timeline try to watch TOS or TNG with no context for how it relates, a disconnect might form. Visually those series are not as sleek or modernized as those movies.
As for the comparison to video games… that is simply a different medium. What appeals to one person to the next will be hard to gage. That doesn’t preclude the likes of Fortnite players from enjoying Trek, but culturally that kind of entertainment is very different from what a kid who grow up with TNG was exposed to.
- Comment on The original teaser for Picard 3 weeks ago:
He did get around. He would totally get with anyone that said yes. But at the same time he wouldn’t try to get between a widow and his captain.

- Comment on Tesla facing another Autopilot fatality lawsuit 2 months ago:
With all the problems that make headline news, it is easily the one manufacturer that gets the most negative publicity. They sound like death traps and I would not go near them on purpose.

At this point I refuse to park next to a Tesla.
- Comment on Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Lower Decks | 5x08 "Upper Decks" 2 months ago:
They brought back the Highway Hotjo mug. I thought that was specifically a Cardassian design.
Also I just happened to buy my own recently.

He looks too much like Jeffrey Hunter. How could he have thought to audition for that character instead.

It is still important to be able to identify the suspect of such a crime regardless if they are alive or dead by the time they can be named.

Horror as in the sense a werewolf was psychically in love with the child before it was born.

Oh, I thought that game had Robert O’Reilly in it.
Saw him at STLV this year, dressed up. Still has the looks and can sing in Klingon.
