I meant to ask about this.

I'm interested but can the filmmakers stop "The Enterprise is dead" angle? It's growing very tiring.

Yeah, the first time was very emotional, as for it now it for, hell, I'm not sure why they keep doing it. It took 25 years to get to 1701-A, they've now done it it just over 3.5. Which was nice to jump over one of the stupidest decisions in TV history. Overall I thought it was a good movie. Get past the wft aspect of Star Trek, and except that anything can happen in this universe and enjoy.

Enjoyed it ok but the only really resonant things to me were the two Vulcans and the picture case at the end. They did a great job balancing the different elements and not over sexualizing the fighting female alien. Even though I was paying attention I didn't get where the alien bad guy suddenly changed.

Ummmm the "bees" were in the form of a wave and the Beastie Boys made them explode? Seriously? I also thought the camera and editing were too quick at times. If they would've stayed on a shot for beat longer then I would've been able to process more of what I was seeing. I thought the plot was pretty thin and the acting was a bit stiff. They're all pretty good actors so it could be the writer's fault. All in all, I thought it was the worst of the remakes. Not a BAD movie but not good either.

    • Ideally Bryce and the other starters should get at least a full quarter and an argument could be made for 2 full quarters given how they've played early in the season the last few years.
    • A rookie that has never played a snap and a proven 1000K NFL WR are not going to be viewed the same in these type rankings.  And calling draft picks, lotto picks, isn't some new quip I just invented.  take the big 3 Hubbard, AT, insert whatever 3rd Panther you want vs Kamara, Hill, Olave.  Most football folks outside of Carolina are picking the Saints there IMO.    
    • You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.
