[–] BB69@lemmy.world 28 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh boy do I have news for you

[–] darth_helmet@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 year ago (2 children)

At least he’s not responsible for nemesis

[–] jmcs@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 1 year ago

I'm fully convinced that Frakes directing is the only thing that prevented First Contact and Insurrection from being the dumpster fire that Nemesis was.

[–] maegul@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Once you go Frakes, you really should not go back.

[–] digger@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 year ago

Let's give him some more feature films. I'd be more excited to see a new Frakes Sar Trek movie then Abrams.

That’s what I’m thinking. 👍

And that, "Rrrriker!" line getting on the saddle was ad-libbed right in front of him.

I’d love a Lower Decks live action movie!

[–] maegul@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not all the voice actors look like their characters. Tendi and Rutherford have this problem I believe.

Buuut, longer form lower decks could work quite well I think. Those characters work in a more serious setting, and their ability to insert levity into those settings works really well. An animated lower decks movie could rock!

[–] angrystego@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, Tendi irl is not green at all.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 2 points 1 year ago

She was at Comic-Con at one point, and I thought she looked like he would be able to pass off as her character with little effort.

[–] Electricorchestra@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 year ago

You honestly just know when it's a Frakes directed episode. Things just feel quality.

One Take Frakes returns, you love to see it

[–] ieightpi@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Let's keep moving people! Need my SNW before the end of next year!

It's cornflakes frakes at the helm
