CBS All Access Announces Star Trek: Short Treks The four "Short Treks" will roll out monthly beginning this fall, and will be stand-alone stories, each running approximately 10-15 minutes. Each short will be an opportunity for deeper storytelling and exploration of key characters and themes that fit into Star Trek: Discovery and the expanding Star Trek universe. "Runaway" (October 4) — “Onboard the U.S.S. Discovery, Ensign Tilly (Mary Wiseman) encounters an unexpected visitor in need of help. However, this unlikely pair may have more in common than meets the eye.” - "Calypso" (November 8) — “After waking up in an unfamiliar sickbay, Craft (Aldis Hodge) finds himself on board a deserted ship, and his only companion and hope for survival is an A.I. computer interface.” - "The Brightest Star" (December 6) — “Before he was the first Kelpien to join Starfleet, Saru (Doug Jones) lived a simple life on his home planet of Kaminar with his father and sister. Young Saru, full of ingenuity and a level of curiosity uncommon among his people, yearns to find out what lies beyond his village, leading him on an unexpected path.” - “The Escape Artist” (January 3) — “Harry Mudd (Rainn Wilson), back to his old tricks of stealing and double-dealing, finds himself in a precarious position aboard a hostile ship — just in time to try out his latest con.”
The reviews of season 2 have been fairly positive. Now I feel motivated to see what I've been missing after having stopped watching mid-season last year.
The CW has released a new action-packed trailer for Arrow‘s upcoming season 7. The trailer highlights Oliver Queen experiencing considerable difficulties in jail while another vigilante emerges in Star City mimicking the Green Arrow. Count me in!
Too bad these couldn't flesh out the Federation or other areas of Starfleet. Nope these are the same unlikable characters from Discovery. Yup, even Tilly is annoying. That'll be a pass from me
I'd be 100% down with this if it came out 2-3 years ago. Now it's falling square into this aggressive, homosexual-feminist cultural moment. So I'm 90% down with it lol What do you guess that some of the characters we've known since the first Iron Man turn out to be Skrulls?
I watched it. Better than season one for sure. But it too has been ruined by the feminist homosexual takeover of what was once boys genre material. Watch till the end
Reveal of Joaquin Phoenix as the Joker..... SMH. it seems Warner Brothers is dedicated to Nolanizing all of their DC properties, especially all Batman related properties.
So they're going with the "realistic" Joker again huh? I was kind of hoping they were going to go the opposite direction this time. It interesting that they never go with the clean-cut version of Joker anymore. Just once I'd like to see this look on the big screen
The studio heads don't want to embrace the fantasy/sci-fi elements of the comics source material. Because Nolan's Batman Trilogy was such a critical darling with non-comic reading audiences, they are too focused on trying to have lighting strike again with that particular demo of the movie going audience rather than appeal to the actual comic familiar demo.
Yikes, do y'all see the type of original programming that Apple is planning on doing on their upcoming streaming service?: https://deadline.com/2018/09/apple-...ming-series-as-too-violent-report-1202469777/ Cliffnotes: - Dr. Dre's show was cancelled because it was too violent and had sex (an orgy) - Jennifer Aniston & Reese Witherspoon's show was "toned down" at the script stage - Whitney Cummings had a show that had #MeToo themes that was cancelled because it's "too sensitive" - Shyamalan has a show but was asked to remove crucifixes hanging in people's houses - Writers are being told if their show has violence or nudity don't bring it to Apple - Apple is using Tim Cook's personal tastes as a barometer and he likes shows like Madam Secretary and Friday Night Lights SMH. So Apple is basically doing Network TV-style dramas. Look at the headline of this Gizmodo article: https://gizmodo.com/apples-upcoming-streaming-service-is-reportedly-so-blan-1829249910 Apple's Upcoming Streaming Service Is Reportedly So Bland Staff Are Calling It 'Expensive NBC' LMAO. Apple's streaming service will be a flop (or atleast a disappoinment) if this is what their shooting for. I guess Apple is hoping the size of their already established Apple device userbase will coast them to success like with Apple Music.
