Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

I enjoyed it...

 

["MysteryMan"]

Amazon delivered my pre-order three days ago. It's a must have for any fan of the series.

It's not Star Trek without a stolen starship!

Or a Enterprise is destroyed. I think Kirk did it , Picard did it and who knows who else. They just re-issue a new ship and add another letter of the alphabet to it.

Yep, Kirk did it in ST-III. Picard (well, Riker actually) did it to the saucer section in ST-Generations and it was inferred in the latest (last?) season of Picard, that Worf somehow lost (destroyed) the Enterprise-E. And, if you really want to get geeky, the Enterprise-C was lost (destroyed) in the battle of Narendra III under the command of Captain Rachel Garrett (and after she was killed), by Lt. Richard Castillo.

First eoisode was really great. Casting Carol Kane was pure genius!

I don't remember watching anything she's been in but Princess Bride. What character did she play in that movie?

 

[long_time_DNC]

Liar!!!

I don't remember watching anything she's been in but Princess Bride.

Annie Hall, Simka (Mrs Latka) on Taxi, Scrooged, Addams Family Values, to name a few.

She was funny in Scrooged. That fairy was mean. Bill Murray found that out quickly.

The title of the movie was Scrooged.

Same, really enjoyed it.

"A Vulcan with a hunch? That's new." I laughed out loud at that line.

Really had issues with the dialogue vs sound effects in this episode. I was fiddling with the volume during the entire episode to hear what was being said vs getting blasted by the SFX. Didn't have that issue in season 1. Wish they'd bump up the dialogue level a tad (and no, my hearing hasn't changed from last season).

Liked the tribute text at the close of the episode. Nice touch.

I only had issues making out what Pelia mumbled.

Yeah, and the doc, and sometimes Chapel too. It's not difficult for them (in post) to bump up the dialogue a tad. It's too late now though. So I'm hoping not every episode has the same issue...

Wish I knew what you guys are taling about. I heard every word, but I have good sound system.

I have a very good sound system also. It's a tad old-in-the tooth (it's 5.2, not 8, 10 or 12.2.1), but I never had this issue with dialogue with season 1 of SNW, or any of Picard, or anything else I've streamed lately. So, I don't know what's going on with season 2 of SNW dialogue audio, but I hope episode 1 was an anomaly with the dialogue audio...

I have both a good sound system and captions on in case I don't hear it.

Same ( except for the captions), running a processor with Monoblock Amplifiers for each speaker (7).

Same here. I have a Hopper and watched on a Joey and IIRC volume leveling is turned on.

I have volume levelling turned on in my TV. I'll look for it in my Hopper settings, turn it on and see if it helps. Thanks!

 

[long_time_DNC]

Had volume levelling turned on in my Hopper 3, but duh, it doesn't matter, because I don't watch most streaming stuff via my Hopper anyway...
