What was your opinion on Clerks? You pretty much described that movie to a tee.
And, for that matter, the first few seasons of TNG.
- noduerme 3y agoClerks was / is one of my favorite movies of all time. (Far as Trek goes, I liked the original series.)
- aspenmayer 3y agoDid you see Star Trek Continues? If so what did you think of it? As someone who didn't see TOS in its original run but appreciated it in occasional reruns, and as a huge fan of the original cast movies, it was... weird. But good weird, mostly, weird in a way that somehow captured the zaniness weirdness of TOS, and which was somewhat glossed over in the original movies when they made the jump to Hollywood production values. I'd check it out if you haven't, just to see what's out there. For that matter, I quite enjoyed Lower Decks, as the Star Trek universe really needed that kind of dedicated comedic outlet, but from a clearly fannish perspecitve that isn't afraid of making very niche in-universe inside-jokes but always from a place of kindness and respect to both the original source material and to the viewer.
