Star Trek: Short Treks (2018)
A list of the main complains
I like the series but here is the list of the main complais about this series and DSC from the fans :
-the uniforms are not military enough.
-the characters are too goofy and too fat (NBSG) did not gather so many fans with characters like Tilly ,Stamets or Mudd,so the aesthethics of the characters counts.
-Non-canon Klingons,Saurians,Andorians and Tellarites (they were upgraded in Enterprise before so there is no need for another upgrade).
Too many fat and LBGT characters,this kind of characters are not good if they are introduced with the force in the story (let's not forget they itroduced the LBGT characters after a slaughter in a Bar ).
-The lack of real heroes,like Picard,Worf,Kirk or Riker.
-The lack of realistic characters,probably those character are realistic enough only for the american continent and two or three more advandced countries from the rest of the world ,but for the rest of the Earth the pretty much stink,and not because they are evil or something like that.
-The series doesn't have any serious and sober charactrer.
-The lack of the ordinary species like the Ferengi,Betazoids,Cardassians,Borgs,Romulans....
-The lack of real handsome straight characters like Seven,Jadzia,Riker,Reed,Paris,nuKirk...the young fans need those type of characters.
-Forcing the canon,with characters like Burnham ..
Star Trek: Discovery: Battle at the Binary Stars (2017)
Say good bye to the old generation of trekkers
I'm a trekker since i was kid ,but i have hard time to recognise this as being a Star Trek series.This series is targeting only the young (teen and not adult) generation.It seems the older fans are not wanted anymore,probably because the the teenagers are more willing to spend more money on their favorite things than the adults.As an adult i can't say i really want to see more violence or more nude scenes or whatever ,only the teeenagers are yeager about forbidden things.I really wanted this series to be a better version of Enterprise or a post Voyager sequel not a remake .One thing that bothered me very much as a guy who was raised in a comunist country with a regim who manipulated with lies the whole country was reading the lies about the series told by the producers of the show in order to keep the fans quiet,i can recognise a attempt of manipulation like that instantly.They said series is a prequel of the original series like Enterprise placed in the original timeline ,but this is just a REMAKE !!! They said the Klingons are diverse and they are not changing the canon but they have only one kind of so called Klingons and they are redesigning the other species too.They said this series is a visual reboot and the canon will be respected ,but their changes are against the canon,for example Worf has growing hair (i was facinated by that thing) and he is even going the to the ship's hairstylist , sometimes .The new Klingons ,their new ships and their new costumes are a visual pain for a die-hard fan like me ,ther TMP version is 1000 times better ,and even JJ's Kligons had hair (take a good look) with the exception of their leader who seems to have battle scars just like Cristopher Plummer's character.The new (Starfleet ) uniforms should have a darker tone and they should be purple and more scary.The Shenzou looks way more cooler than DSC pizza cutter .The acting is not too great ,for example the new Klingons are speaking like some dumb Ferengi.The action is ok but the story looks like it was improvised on the filming spot with rare exceptions.Anyway,this series will fail to mantain the older fanbase because we have now Lost in Space ,The Orville,a Star Wars live show and a Halo huge tv series in production.You broke my heart with this strange show because all i wanted was too see a regular TNG series ,that is all.I wish you a long and prospere existence and good luck with your new fans,because i'm not consider myself a Trekkie anymore.Post scriptum : The series has too little science parts and too many fantasy just like Star Wars.
