Am I the only one who is worried about this show becoming SJW drivel? Sure Trek arguably leaned to the left at times, but to make it seem like it takes sides with SJW's and their current limelight is wrong and incorrect, hell often times they have expressed views in the shows that SJW's would feel as morally wrong even.

Keep in mind I am not complaining about the fact that there's a black Female lead, could care less about that, what I DO CARE is how they portray her and make her act like.
God forbid they fuck up the whole thing and make her seem like a fucking token or mouthpiece for Modern SJW BLM bs...
Black female lead isn't so bad, its the fucking ship and the CGI worse than TNG i'm worried about.
Star Trek has always been progressive
name one Star Trek show that wasn't "SJW drivel"
Star Trek was always progressive, hell they had the first interracial kiss on tv. It's just that in the last few years liberals have been running out of things to complain about (at least in the western world) and try their hardest to act like victims because their used to it.

So is this board gonna be nuked anytime soon?
How are our chances of seeing /film/ or an actual usable board for film and television discussion?

Star Trek should be above contemporary topics, at least regarding star fleet.
Given how any discussions that are counter to the mainstream SJW narrative are verboten in this day and age, if this show truly wanted to be "progressive" in 2016 it would actually have to be more conservative in its casting and story.
The mirror universe is now real.
I don't care if the whole crew is trans, if its good I will fucking watch it. I like Bryan Fuller's other tv shows. Bryan Fuller also really likes Star Trek, mainly DS9 and TNG. I also really like DS9 and TNG, thus I will likely really like Star Trek: Discovery.
These.
Trek was never 'meme oppression complaint of the week'
It *tried* to maturely deal with actual pre millenial liberal issues.
Yes because Star Trek has always been right wing
see
you self satisfied baby
I thought Fuller was the good one.
these guys get it
He is. He's a 10/10 creator.
((((((())))))))
>Sure Trek arguably leaned to the left at times
>arguably
>at times
Lol?
you're a retard who's never watched an episode of Star Trek
Except there is a difference between a black captain and check your privilege die cis scum you're a fucking white male.
>CGI worse than TNG
Thats impossible since TNG had no CGI
>Thats impossible since TNG had no CGI
>TNG
>cgi
But that's wrong. TNG was one of the first shows to use CG. They used a CG Enterprise-D in the last two seasons along with the models and stock footage
Uhura herself was pretty much a subversive role, wasn't she?
>black woman
>serving as officer on the bridge of a ship
>only maybe 4-5 positions away from the captain's seat
>on a '70s program
Show was hella progressive.
>OP posts THIS trek thread again
>Most responses are actually calling OP out on being retarded
I think there might be hope for this board yet
This will have garbage ratings and be cancelled after 13 episodes and forgotten forever.
Don't worry about it.
>70s
According to Nichelle Nichols, she was going to quit the show because her character never had anything to do, and MLK himself told her to stay on
>Bryan Fuller
At a guess, it'll be amazing and last not nearly as long as it should.

Oh right. Sorry, '60s, brain's distracted.
But yeah.
So much this
Guy has Whedon syndrome - coasting on what he did last decade while becoming even more self indulgent.
Let's all get mad that in 1000 years a black chick is a cruise ship captain.
For fucks sake, pol has completely rotted everyone's brains.
That CGI is really really bad though.
>Am I the only one who is worried about this show becoming SJW drivel?
Yeah, you sort of are, user.
>Black Female Lead.
No big deal.
>Same network that Supergirl is on.
Same network Voyager was on.
>Producer confirms it will be "Progressive".
Every Trek is progressive. That's kind of its
"thing".
>Progressivism these days often times is akin to SJW's.
Trek is also a reflection of the times.
Maybe you just don't like Star Trek as much as you think you do?
canceled after 1 season
Well, let's hope this one will try to do the same.
>Crying about a black female captain
>When Sisko and Janeway already exist
user, the "muh leftist agenda" argument is a little pointless in a Star Trek thread. You've had 50 years to be bothered by it.
That track record
>canceled after 29 episodes
>canceled after 14 episodes
>canceled after 21 episodes
>canceled after ONE episode
>canceled after 39 episodes
Season 1 - SJW drivel
Season 2 - Starts to figure out that SJW is not what the audience wanted
Season 3 - Greatness
Season 4 - Cancelled
60s user, 60s.
Season 1 - SJW drivel
Season 2 - there is no season 2
Star Trek is a dead franchise and it's time to bury it.
Na, even if it's garbage, the volume of trek fans warrants at least 3.
well its star trek, so four seasons at least
Eh, Star Trek's name should convince them to try for at least 5 seasons.
I think its the social climate in which its being done that bothers him.
Do you think they would let janeway be the fuckup she was if Voyager was airing today.
I mean shit think of the tuvix episode.
...
The real deciding factor for me is will it be Alpha or will it be in the reboot universe??
Regular universe. 10 years before TOS so expect plenty of "hey it's young _____" cameos.
Fuller wrote for mostly Voyager, he wrote I think two or three episodes for DS9. Here they are, but remember he wrote most of these before he made all of his other known shows.

>They used a CG Enterprise-D in the last two seasons along with the models and stock footage
they didn't
>Of the Star Trek production team, David Stipes in particular, as well as – at a later time, to a somewhat lesser, more cautious degree – Mitch Suskin, Dan Curry, and Ronald B. Moore were the foremost advocates of applying CGI, Stipes already overseeing some of its earliest applications during the sixth season of TNG. Stipes had lobbied, in vain, for a CGI version of the USS Enterprise-D during that season.
Counterpoint: the most dedicated Trekkies are the same people who torrent everything and watch nothing through legal channels.

This nigga looks like he should be rooting around in my garbage.
The Space Age is over, you know? There's no societal expectation that humanity will live on other planets anymore. No one's been to the moon in half a century and NASA literally doesn't have a single functional manned spaceship in its fleet right now so it has to beg Russia for access to their decaying 40 year old tech.
It's a Fuller show, its going to be kino and singlehandedly save CBS from bankruptcy
...
Checked. But eww thats fucking gay. Oh well, at least they didnt go into the future. My dream pitch of an amazing idea for the next next gen is still alive I suppose.

This is incredibly and hilariously false.
Die-hard Trekkies own more memorabilia than anyone could know what to do with.
I have TOS and TNG on VHS, DVD and Blu-Ray. I have DS9 and VOY on VHS and DVD.
I have ENT on DVD and Blu-Ray.
I own all of the films on DVD and Blu-Ray.
expect were on the cusp of laying the foundations for colonizing mars and the moon
How big is your lolicon collection, you fat fuck?
>black lead
Why do studios do this to themselves? You're losing millions of viewers worldwide just for the sake of progressive subversion
Uh-huh. Just like fusion power, a room temperature superconductor and strong AI.
>TOS is literally SJW propaganda
>people are shocked that they'd return to this
Most people want a future trek
This is the correct answer, not the harping "this" on "its always been progressive".
No, its how it has HANDLED progressive issues, which today's """writers""" cannot.
Its like Sup Forums has always been bad, which is it has not, and has been a meme since late 2011 when Sup Forums starting bringing in the drivel and garbage.
No it was profressice not sjw prooaghands
They did not even have those voices back then.
Star Trek is the good side of the left. This could be Star Trek on the bad side of the left. I'd like to believe that it won't be, and I'll reserve judgement until I see it, but my hopes are not high.

I'm 179 pounds and literally had to google lolicon.

We gave blacks equal rights in the '60s and in return they spent the last 50 years giving US society wonderful things such as:
Justin Bieber
>We
"We"? Who's this fucking we? You a time traveler? fuck off.
"We" as in white America. It's not like blacks were the deciding vote to pass the Civil Rights Act ;)
>jumps immediately to Sup Forumsshit
Nice hypocrite post, literal drooling retard.
Why do I have the feeling you're gonna think it's the second no matter how well the show is written?
(((CURRENT YEAR)))
>black female lead
I thought they were just non white? They could be an asian qt for all we know
>black lesbian captain
will go well with black female james bond, and white lesbian luke skywalker tbh
anyone that thinks they care about making a good show is probably retarded and incapable of reading between the lines at this point, they wouldn't bother pushing the WOW SO PROGRESSIVE angle in the media if that were the case
the earlier shows didn't rely on this shit to attract viewers before, which should be setting off warning flags already
He wants Angela Bassett as the lead
>minorities shoehorned into main characters for no reason other than "muh utopian society"
>not SJW
Asians aren't "people of color"
Shoehorned?
They were just present why could they not be present? Why would they not be?
You just sound racist now.
Utopias are not exclusively left leaning.
Expand you definitions.
they were minorities solely for the purpose of being minorities. they were literally cast based on race. if that's not racist i don't know what is
this.
Battlestar Galactica (2004) pushed the envelope by banning abortion and exploring the ethics of suicide bombing during the worst years of the Iraq War. This could do the same.
Because the internet 2.0 didn't exist during most of the shows. They aren't pushing shit, I think he was asked about it in an interview. The only reason it seems like they're pushing it is because you spergeloards keeps bringing this shit up ad nauseum
You aparently.
>Progressivism these days often times is akin to SJW's.
really made me think
Ctrl+f "SJW" - 1 of 21
It's gonna be literally impossible to discuss this show on Sup Forums isn't it? I guess the Star Wars shit storm should have tipped me off but holy fuck it looks like Comfy Trek is RIP too.
Is it even possible to discuss anything here anymore? Can someone recommend me a site or board that movies pretty well that is capable of a discussion like Sup Forums was three / four years ago?
It's going to be utter shit. I'm a pretty huge Trek nerd, and I'm not even sure if I'm going to bother
I don't care about the color or sexual orientation of the crew, I just want a good sci-fi show where they explore the galaxy and meet interesting aliens. But we're not going to get that, we're going to get preached at and no opposing side will be represented.
I dont think you can guarantee that at all.
