Yes but he is authentically american black, I dont think they could get away with hiring a british black guy that could act and get away with it

Why does every minority need to be atypical? I went to school with black dudes and they could barely read half the time.

you sound racist af whiteboi

How so?

He cucked based Yaphit out of his Chief Engineer promotion. He's forever shit to me.

I don't think norm is going to be on the show much longer, he seems lazy as fuck and probably doesnt even want the hassle of doing it

That’s bullshit, he does a pigeon on an adult swim show as well, you do know most of his lines are probably recorded in a week right?

I agree, he's just screaming in all situations that require him to play serious

How can Yaphit speak? He has literally no vocal cords... or any organ that makes him a living being.

I mean, you're unicronically not wrong. He was a secretary that Seth liked so he brought him on. I'm sure he tries his best though.

What makes one a bad or good actor?

Oh, that explains that then.
Nevermind, ignore this thread.

not confusing "be serious" with "just act LOUDER" for example

Do you think about them as the character they are attempting to portray or an actor? And beyond that how deeply do you believe in the character.Go watch something like there will be blood pay attention to DDL and Paul Dano. Compare them to say Jennifer lawrence in any movie she is in. Let me know what conclusions you draw.

I am racist and I still think he can't act.

Someone said Orville is more Star Trek and this new one. Are they just trolling or being serious?

I've heard a lot of bad things about this new ST series.

When you wactch TNG and you see Data you dpn't thino that it's Brent Spiner doing a character, you actually believe Data is a real character. That is good acting. A good actor will immerse you in the movie and make you forget for a moment at least that it's all make believe.

Are VOY and DS9 available in HD and widescreen?

no

I mean The Orville is literally a rip off of TNG but with some Macfarlanesque comedy thrown in here and there STD clearly wanted to distance itself from previous tv Star Trek, I guess wether that's good or bad is up to personal opinion but I think it's bullshit.

To be fair, Data looks completely different from the actor who plays him.

yeah this guy was not convincing at all as an unambitious genius, le intelligent but lazy

He would be better with an alien mask where you can't discern his facial expression. It would also soften the blow of his horrendous acting.

Tragedy

...

New star trek continues the feel of the newest movies. Orville feels a lot more like tng but with more obnoxious dialogue

I can't think of a more perfect analogy.

>IMMA SPACE MAN
next episode
>now im as smart as our data

I don't get it.

Ethnicity of these posters = white

Nuts and Bolts is Banjo in name only, while Yooka Laylee is the real spiritual successor to Banjo.

Yeah, he's a major weak link on the show. The upvote/downvote episode was especially awful when he humped the statue on the away mission. They should have left him to his fate on that planet. I know they're now making him Geordi by making him Chief Engineer but there's no saving the character in my eyes.

Nope. Only TNG which was remastered but with no widescreen as it wasn't filmed in widescreen. However VOY and DS9 were filmed in HD and widescreen and could be remastered to original form but they won't do it because TNG is the most popular series and still didn't make enough of a profit(only $71mn to a $50mn cost) to warrant such a dedicated amount of time and money into giving VOY and DS9 that same treatment despite the fact those two would only cost a combined $22mn. Some are holding out hope it could be done.

It hurts not being able to see them in their originally filmed resolutions and open to a new audience.

There was a popular N64 platforming game called Banjo Kazooie. Microsoft bought the company that made it and had them publish a sequel for the Xbox that had the same characters and world but was a bullshit vehicle building game instead. Some of the programmers who made the original went on to start their own company and make a second platforming game that played very similarly to the N64 one, but because they didn't own the license anymore they had to create new animal mascots.

Hence, The Orville is more of a continuation of Star Trek than the new Star Trek is, with more veteran Star Trek actors and writers and a much more authentic Star Trek aesthetic, because Star Trek is now owned and produced by people who hate Star Trek.

I agree with everything you said but I think There Will Be Blood is not a good movie.

>Star Trek is now owned and produced by people who hate Star Trek
How did that happen anyway?

He really stands out in a bad way. He's honestly one of the worst actors I've ever seen on primetime network television.

so is there some chick who has a blob bf or what?

no I don't care what fucking show I just want the clip of the chick inside the blob.

you can go to college with them,and if a teacher calls them out to read something out loud you can hear their illiteracy

Thank you but I never played them.
Great answer now I understand. Guess I'll give The Orville a shot when it starts airing in the UK on the 14th of this month. Thanks mate.

The same way Star Wars is now owned by people that hate Star Wars.
Money. It talks a universal language.

>that scene
It's like my recent Stellaris game.

I find it disgusting they replaced a minority actor (fat AND a ginger) with another albeit sole minority actor.

God i hope they don't kill isaac

>im not racist.... but
then why do you have to preface it with that you aren't racist?

He can be repaired.

You need to be alive to die. Androids aren't organisms.

...

Just look at his entitled expression. Nogs can't shake it. Just be human, breh

Because the internet people will start a shitlord crusade against anyone that says anything but praise for anyone that is a non white male and you damn well know it.

eww old people sex

>someone on the internet is gonna say something bad about me
wow, how sheltered have your life been?

should I watch this?

Do you like sci-fi?

He's not a good actor, at all. I can see him reciting his lines in his head as he delivers them and it ruins every scene he's in. Also I understand the need to frame the thread in this this context.

>that first sip of the day

Regarding STD, No.
The producers, owners, writers, and show runners of the show hate the show; that is obvious.
The art department, some of the costumers, and some of the actors clearly love the original material, and will not complain about the direction for fear of their jobs. There is legit detail put into the technology and special effects, detail that would never be put in by someone who doesn't care. This is not to say that it's a good direction to take things in aesthetically...it's a statement about how their passion for the project comes through in the work they do, regardless of the actual direction the show takes.

That still doesn't change the fact that all the original tenets of Star Trek have had to be thrown out the window due to copyright violation potentiality. Costumes, ships, everything that looks like Star Trek has to look different to the original property, which is why the argument that fans have about it not being the same as the old Star Trek they love is moot. It CAN'T look the same, because it's not owned wholly by the people making it. It's the same reason why the Jar Jar Abrahms Star Trek looks like shit. It's not because people didn't want it to look good or fit into canon...it's because they legally cannot make it fit into canon. The Enterprise has to looks different...the costumes have to look different. I can only imagine how much STD had to pay for the rights to use Tribbles.

The point is, it cannot be the same Star Trek, not out of love, but out of the rights holders. So, the people who are passionate about the series who work on it are stuck having to make the best of a shit sandwich.

Star Wars is another problem...but that's for another thread.

If you like Star Trek TNG, yes, watch it. The core elements that people love, including myself, are all present. 1) A crew you'd enjoy interacting with more than what we see on screen. 2) Tech that is reasonable, in a world that is consistent. 3) Philosophical (high minded or low brow) elements that are tackled with varying degrees of finesse. 4) It provides an escape from the current year that is required in order to stay sane and centered.

Is that enough? And Alara is cute. How about that?

>And Alara is cute
she is a qt

Explicit statements of non-racism sound racist.

>"you are a sexual jihadist"

Veteran Trek writer Fuller was fired because he wanted to make STD look like Star Trek. That's illegal.

Yooka-Laylee is a good ripoff of Banjo-Kazooie. Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts is considered horrible for a Banjo-Kazooie game. I haven't played either of them.

I think they realized he cant act. Now within the universe om Orville he is getting a promotion, but in the show it is a demotion. Being in Engineering and not on the bridge gives him a smaller part.

Why does his head look like the wrong aspect ratio?

Brannon talked about this a long time ago I think it was after nemesis they wanted to make a great ending to star trek as a whole by merging all the people behind trek and make a big new series to make it feel good but CBS denied it many times

But Nuts and Bolts was good. It just wasn't Banjo Kazooie.

It's probably one of the best Lego games ever made.

>When the Orville thread devolves into Banjo Kazooie because STD is that bad.

Sisko also couldn't yet people still talk about him

Wouldn't the entire season have been written before they started filming? And they don't film episodes in order.

I like STD because I hate Star Trek.

I totally get that. I think I would like it more if I disliked Star Trek too.

It's still has astoundingly stupid moments at times.

Logic Extremists, holy shit.

Wrong, banjo's better spiritual successor is A Hat in Time

he was the worst character from the beginning

He wasn't even a character. Probably not a character now.

That's racist

we wuz space niggers from Compton

>going to school with blacks
You must be really poor. I'm in South Africa and there barely any blacks at my schools

yeah we know

No, the actual Lego games are way better, NaB fucking sucked.

but nuts and bolts fucking sucked


oh i get it

Wrong. The way tv shows work is they make a pilot then the network orders more episodes if they like it or see potential.

Usually true, however Seth claims all the episodes were prewritten.
youtu.be/7N54eNGRDH8

Maybe Seth didn't care about him being a good actor since he was going to make him a minor character later on anyway.

well yeah it's television, the acting is terrible

I hope Mercer dies and they replace him with Patrick Stewart.

I dunno. He IS a shitty actor. The way he kept screaming in that last episode was horrible.

Lamarr is such a ghetto name. I think he was meant to play as himself in this television series.

It's called affirmative blacktion.

Get used to it, cause this is what you libcucks wanted and why everyone is getting raped in hollywood.

Ps... orville sucks!

Macfarlane literally invited all his friends to play a roll in this show. Don't think they went through a casting.

>I don't wan't to sound like a queer or nothing, but I think you have a really nice ass"

ever watched a porno or something amateur like on youtube?
your brain instantly detects bad acting, it's like magic.

probably to avoid wasting his time dealing with irrational shaming people immediately switch to these days when facts trump their feelings.

Agreed. The dude reads his lines like a crappy local theater actor would. I've honestly seen more natural acting in porn flicks

Frontal lobe sub apparently the smartest guy on their ship, yet talks like a retard straight out of baltimore? Fucking hate this character

Robert? What are you doing on a spaceship? Bring me my damn popcorn!
