    July 23rd, There's going to be a YouTube Comic-Con panel with the casts of Discovery, Picard, and Lower Decks.

    I'm betting we get trailers.

    I put it in this thread, so I wouldn't have to duplicate it across the individual show threads.

    I like it!
    So, Cerritos is pronounced "sare eee tose", and not "sare ah tose", like I've been saying it in my head.

    Looks like the most annoying people get sent to the lower decks. Pass.

    I can't view the video. Maybe it's geo-locked?

    Cerritos is a Spanish word meaning hills or, more accurately, little hills.

    The animation is very much a la Rick and Morty.

    Does look kinda silly but I'll give it a chance before I pass judgment. :shrug:

    P.S. - Thanks @Diacanu for the adblocker stuff. I really had to play around with my antibanner settings and managed to get it to work.

    It ain't perfect, but Futurama had kinks to work out its first season, so I'm giving them leeway.

    You’re going to love it and not have one critical word to say against it.

    Well, YEAH now to spite you.

    Seriously though, I was critical of Disenchantment.
    That really needs to up its game next season.
    If there is one.

    Because I believe you’ll like anything they slap the name Star Trek on. You like the brand, you care nothing about the content.

    So what?
    So fucking what?
    There are assholes who'd call you gay slurs for even liking Trek at all.
    Do ya care?
    No?
    All right then.
    I've heard your opinion of me and my tastes before, and I gave it all the due consideration I ever did the jock homophobe bullies.

    So true. I also like it when people say, "you just like so-and-so because it has the franchise label slapped on it. You'll lap up anything they release under that label."

    Funny thing is, I can prove that's total bullshit based on my own experience.

    I grew up with the original Star Wars and it had a profound impact on my childhood. But I fucking hated the prequel trilogy. They were abortions all around. I probably haven't watched one of the prequel films in over fifteen years, but I've seen the original trilogy many times since then. I also happen to like a lot of the new stuff Disney is putting out, although it's not perfect. Apparently, me liking the new films means I'll lap anything up. But how does that explain my distaste for the prequels?

    Same thing for Star Trek. Grew up on TOS, loved TNG, loved DS9 but absolutely hated Voyager and Enterprise. Didn't like Discovery at first but it grew on me. I also like Picard, despite its flaws.

    It's best just to avoid folks who want to force their opinions on you. :shrug:

    I've gotten the "you lap up Disney-Wars" thing, but then why do I have "Solo", behind "Revenge Of The Sith"?
    If I lap up Disney-Wars dead-stop, I shoulda gone apeshit for that one.

    Cerritos. As in the Cerritos auto square in a waste of land in Los Angeles called Cerritos. They named it after a crappy south LA gateway city.
