Honestly the entire notion of caring about “ratings” at all is stupid unless you are trying to sell ads. Reviews are great and reviewing art is an art form of it’s own. But taking a bunch of reviews and smoothing them together and averaging them out in order to pretend you’ve reached some sort of objective truth about how “good” a piece of media is is a stupid thing to care about and will only bring you sorrow and a more shallow life.

A few years later, when we did Star Trek: Enterprise, the producers wanted a more NASA-like vibe, so I did quite a few emblems for Bob Blackman, our costume designer. Wendy Drapanas, Geoff Mandel, and Alan Kobayashi also contributed some patches.

This listicle says it was Wendy Drapanas but there’s no further explanation.

There are sizeable number of people who don’t like all kinds of things but I don’t make it a habit of pointing it out when I see someone with those things permanently etched onto their skin.

I know it’s not what you’re asking but I think Okuda did the original design

lmao why on Earth would you phrase it like that?!?! Just say nice tattoo!

I agree, but the particular Maquis we saw tended to be reactionary and narrow minded. I think it could have been presented as a much better grey area situation like in Journey’s End.

I always felt like they did a pretty poor job of making the audience feel any significant level of sympathy for the Maquis (assuming that was the goal).

The meme is 2/10 but this comment is 10/10

No, but statistically speaking it goes bear > star trek fan > star wars fan > Lemmy user

I remember this episode it is the one where riker just learned to make banana splits

I’ve watched this before, it’s one of my favorites. Great selection of pieces and it flows really well. I would love to see something similar in person one day.

Yeah sorry it’s been stuck in mine since I posted it

…Holy cow the conservative Trekkies were right all along…

Looks like it was published before seasons 4 and 5 of Lower decks came out which imo is where most of the bangers are
