He designed the monsters for the Film the 'Mist' based on Stephen Kings great Novella. His comic work is second to none and those cross-hatching lines are just immaculate. So long Bernie. Damn.

Why on earth did they decide what Voyager needed was a babe in a skin tight  lycra suit as opposed to more quality writing and acting?

A 'Babe' in various tight lycra costumes cost less than either of those.

Nice bullshit, of course, human beings are killer apes, territorial in inclination, red in tooth and claw in our dealings with one and other.

Nah, it's all about the teamwork.

With that twat in Chief in the White House? No way! The alleged goodness of human kind is always far too thin.

Don't follow the point about "it's to make money".

Yes that is a reason for doing at all, but I don't see the link as to what time period to set it in.

'You talk like a Liberal, but at heart, you're an Amercian.' -The Best Man. Science Fiction isn't about the future it's about the now and so Star Trek, a show well known for its progressive ideals about humanity might favour a near future setting. 'This is us' it claims, ourselves sharing in a technologically advanced future but our old prejudices, class and racial hatreds still exist. We haven't quite progressed enough and only well-intentioned ideals of equality, gender etc can make us a better species. Nice bullshit, of course, human beings are killer apes, territorial in inclination, red in tooth and claw in our dealings with one and other. That ugly truth is forever IMHO but Hollywood sells Californication and hope is a big part of that. Hope as the ancient Greeks would tell you is danger's comforter and not to be trusted.

So this is going to be another prequel series. Why FFS?

Apparently, it's set about 10 years before Kirk and the Enterprise crew went boldly. As for why- greed to make more money! Some of the stories I think will concern a conflict between the Crew and the Captain played by Jeremy Isaacs who although portrayed as charismatic might turn out to be either a coward or an overzealous pro-humanist. [i:e racist] Liberal attitudes will of course eventually triumph since Star Trek tends to be seen as a standard bearer for social equality and the P.O.V character is a black Female [Number One].That sets the stage for confrontation on board the Discovery reflecting Hollywoods concerns about what's happening in America right now.

Avenge is to punish someone in the pursuit of Justice. Revenge is the intent to exact retribution for some harm done by another to one's self or others.

Just pretend you're an Avenger to justify the crime!
