kal star trek: discovery actor

To me this was the very first time that she felt like a part of a crew that was working together to accomplish something. Yeah I think you are definitely onto something… from a story credibility standpoint, I have no issue with a Federation Starship being taken over by a technologically superior foe like the Borg or by a physically and intellectually superior foe like the augments in Enterprise and TOS – but when relatively minor “space bullies” take over the upgraded Discovery, it reminds me of the time when the Kazon took over Voyager. A Federation starship is approaching, here in the middle of the galactic nowhere? His commander (as dumb as it is that it’s her) told him to jump. The presumably best shows ever have never ended in a way that satisfied the majority of viewers. Adira’s story also takes an interesting turn as they finally come out of their shell and jump into the action, perhaps buoyed by the return of their hype man Gray. Hell, all of Secret Hideout produced Trek! And Saru, the only alien among them? Coming up with a serialized TV season story arc should be no more problematic than writing a movie or a book, at least at the outline stage. I already felt spoiled a bit by the preview of Burnham and Culber AFTER reading that in the comments and rewatching the preview at slow speed. The holodeck and the changes to the away team is an interesting concept. Forgive me for saying this but, “It is not what I wanted the Burn to be” is such a copout. Nine centuries of tech upgrades and still with the sparks and the steam. For serialized television, I can’t count how many episodes were too simple or convenient in their resolution. His career began with appearances in New Zealand films and TV series such as Xena: Warrior Princess.His first Hollywood role was in the 2002 horror film Ghost Ship.Since then, he has appeared in many high-profile movies, including the second and third installments of The Lord of the Rings trilogy in the role of Éomer. I am not saying STD needs Borg drama. Michael, whose own distractions resulted in her being removed as XO, seems to be the only one on board who sees that the Captain has gone a bit Kelpien-crazy. Changing things up is a good thing. Star Trek’s best episodes and movies do not usually correspond with their being allocated big budgets, IMO. Positive: All good fun, and Bill Irwin. I was thinking it was time after watching Picard. This is a classic trope in Trek. I didn’t mean to destroy the Federation, honest! Janet Kidder’s performance was much more menacing and credibly vicious in this one. I was starting to get somewhat invested in this season with this episode, only to learn the burn was caused by a child’s tantrum. They really should have been aware had they knew their shields would not stop anyone beaming in. de Klerk served as a minister in the government of Pik Botha (OB Trek: I nearly wrote “Pike Botha”) and that no one expected him to dismantle apartheid in the least when he became president? You wouldn’t refit that ship for war, you wouldn’t even try sending it out as is – the best you could do would to be to take the sailors from her, give them some training on the most basic things, and then let them lose on some supporting roles where their skills are still relevant). 2) a fragile society that fractures and is incapable of coming together to either find out the source of the problem or neutralize it. They simply resorted to an incredibly easy full take over of discovery by an enemy transporting in… something this future clearly has never figured out how to defend against. A recap of ‘Su’Kal,’ episode 11 of season 3 of Star Trek: Discovery on CBS All Access. But I can’t get with the negativity at the message of this particular story as I understand it at present. Unification III works because it has solid courtroom drama-type scenes and decent character dynamics and shifts of power, on top of being a juicy story we all wanted to see developed. Protomatter did. Really? Only thing that went wrong is that you can see that Sinclair was supposed to get Sheridans destiny. What was it like those first few days, when you were just trying to get into the mood of how to modulate that performance, realizing you don’t have that sort of mask you usually have on the show to work with? Book and Grudge return only slightly crispy from their scout of the location of the crash landing, which turns out to be on a planet made of dilithium, the essential element that has been almost entirely used up since The Burn. Agreed re: The Expanse. Another issue I am having with this episode is how Osyraa is able to not only track Discovery, but also knows how the spore drive operates and comes prepared knowing Stamets is the pilot for the drive and how he interfaces with the drive and where the pilot’s chair is located for the drive. Well, I should have seen this coming. In this case, the galaxy wide disaster did happen, but it’s the dissolution of galactic society and isolationism that prevented anyone from finding the cause of the problem and resolving it. She never advanced the plot. So I applaud the writers for doing this to Tilly in this episode. Weren’t their shields up? They need to be willing to hear others tell them to take a step back. And a Starfleet crew of ‘professional’ officers who constantly hug and kiss each other! Note: I found an article on this issue on another site today and it has provided some interesting “what ifs”. I hoped Discover would improve in season 3 but it managed to get worse. The Burn was caused by a temper tantrum… okay but I expected something more! Ugh! She toned down the mustache-twirling considerably. I felt like that condesending engineer who wanted to take over the bridge from Geordi in The Arsonal of Freedom, haha. And this after another extra-lengthy “mirror-universe” detour. The only positive I can say is it was fun to be back in a holodeck again. Especially not to a “we all toast her” level. (also checking out their version of The Right Stuff while I’m at it. Also, I am fully in support of any tantrum, and if that’s the real reason behind The Burn I am all for it. So many times. Why is BURNHAM questioning Saru’s emotional state??? I actually thought this was, perhaps, the lowest point of the series so far. Yes, even better then Lethe, If Memory Serves and Through the Valley of Shadows. I cringe imagining any other character from any other series Come on Ryn, you are falling down on the intel job here. Now I think that honor falls to SMG. I mean, good grief at least promote her first! When they go to Vulcan/Ni’Var this season, they just had to wedge in Michael’s mom again out of nowhere and do family drama. Not to mention if Saru is gone now, does that mean Tilly is now the Captain? The staircases going endlessly no where, in the early holosimulation had an Escher quality. Anson Mount has revealed that he’d be open to returning to Star Trek: Discovery. Prime Georgeau was principled and kind. Doug Jones was especially impressive, taking on the challenge to solve a Kelpien mystery devoid of his Kelpien makeup for the first time. That’s good. Der Artikel Star Trek - Discovery: There Is A Tide... - Review wurde von Christian Schäfer am Samstag, den 2. It is not binary in practice. The situation was obviously grave. It’s a wonder he has any vestige of sanity at all. The big reveal of the season missed the landing. Serialized TV has to go… far, far away. Schaue hier den Trailer "Star Trek: Discovery - staffel 3 Trailer OV" der Serie Star Trek: Discovery - Staffel 3 auf FILMSTARTS.de He let it go without even a flinch. Let’s hope that part of the story at least makes more sense. (although their new look of the 23rd century was, and remains, an issue). Enterprise season 3 is one of them. What’s VERY clear is this focus on one character is just not working and SMG can’t do much with what she’s been given here to save the day. I honestly can’t tell if this is a joke or a serious question! That was a great episode. It seems as though the bridge officers are the only ones who accept that in a crisis (red alert) the chain of command has to be respected, and officers who aren’t psychological up to making hard command decisions need to step out of the chair (or lead for an away team). “The Burn,” already a stupid plotline, was caused by a crying child struck in a holodeck on a crashed ship on a dilithium planet. How can they possibly have a different tone and feel if so many bts people are involved in all of them? And I’m shocked to see you write that. They liked it at a surface level, and don’t question the character decisions made, nor whether the plot makes sense rationally. And short of that, destruction of the ship should have commenced. It was VERY poorly put together. Seriously? The biggest sin this season was returning to Vulcan only to hold the big “dramatic” ceremony in the cafeteria. The ship should have never been allowed to fall into the hands of the Emerald Chain. She brought nothing to the table. Unfortunately IMO, the writers ran out of gas leading up to the cliffhanger ending of the episode and the predictable takeover of the Discovery. Well, finally someone has hit on a legitimate criticism of Discovery. The fact that it is not a big baddy, but a tragic accident combined with an emotional and a really personal story is fine in my book. I, for one, accept what the writers are coming up with. I laughed out loud when Burnham said that to Saru. The single-minded Saru assigns himself to the rescue team with Michael and Hugh, which garners some skepticism from Admiral Vance. However—and through no fault of Rapp’s—there is again confusion about who is really in charge of engineering, as Stamets is a scientist while Reno is an actual engineer. I thought it was silly when Seska took over Voyager, but at least Seska had first hand knowledge about Voyager and Janeway’s command tactics when she was able to take over Voyager. Specifics are unknown. A triumphant mystery box to unravel and behold, “Su’Kal” is an imaginative, clever hour of science fiction that harkens back to a number of classic storytelling tricks from Star Trek’s past — and starts an unofficial three-part season finale that will likely answer many of the central mysteries of Star Trek: Discovery’s third season.. B5 kicked serious ass next to most of Berman Trek (in some regards that’s not saying much, and it was mostly after B5 began transitioning into payoff mode), but it still tripped over itself on a number of occasions. Give it a rest. Even when the Captain has meetings he is NOT talking to the department heads. I mean I knew about Burnham and Culber from last week’s ad but the other one hadn’t been revealed. Director Norma Bailey kept the pacing just right, so before you knew it, the episode was over, leaving so many things to be resolved in the final two. We’ve got 6-7 people of the main cast who were all important in the plot and both story A and B felt important with high stakes. And special effects are a joke. But that image on Netflix totally ruined it. (Maybe that would explains his mind powers??) Clearly taking over an entire star ship is incredibly easy…. So there really is no real bad guy behind it. 1. She is a know-it-all who stickers her nose into everything, can’t follow orders, and is disrespectful to her superiors. Trailer: Captain on the Bridge. I can get my own snacks from the craft service table. But I agree. Well only a couple of episodes left – let’s see if the writers can salvage the season finale! With a good mix of plot progression, character development, and weird science, “Su’Kal” has a classic Star Trek feel. . Being good was never described as being evil, merely as being weak and exposing oneself to attack. By: Anthony Pascale Example: Tilly politely declines the opportunity to become a hostage, buoyed by a supportive crew and a totem to give her strength in the form of a secret flaw in the captain’s chair. I also agree on Georgiou. The show never gave us reason to think otherwise! They’ve had three seasons now. The origin of the burn is so lame…. Imagine of the writers of Spock’s Brain wrote every episode of every season of TOS. We’re talking about a sentient being that effectively experienced the torture of seclusion / isolation for more than a century with only the support of holographic simulations that were not sentient AIs. That’s acting chose, and it’s horrible. Think Gerry Adams or Nelson Mandela; Yasir Arafat came very close to playing that role in 2000. The actor debuted in the second season of the show as Christopher … Read more on screenrant.com. I thought the idea of a child who grew up INSIDE a holodeck and didn’t quite understand that reality even existed was very cool. Orions and Andorians board the ship and quickly take over. I stand by my statement. When they finally decide their backs are to the wall in Severed Dreams you almost don’t buy it. I mean, folks in the US actually called Stalin “Uncle Joe” during the war, despite the gulag archipelago. He’s mythical like Charlie X or Ron Howard’s little brother or the Roman God Alien that they shoot at. In TOS, they didn’t have to establish some personal ties for every story beat. Once upon a time, nearly every episode of Star Trek: Discovery was a “Michael episode,” in which the main plot centered upon putting Commander Michael Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green) through as much hell as could be managed in about 50 minutes. As for Tilly losing the ship, completely predictable. Also, a little bummed that the older Starfleet uniforms the holos wore look way better than the ones that are current to the time period. Star Trek Discovery: Su’Kal (S3E11) camestrosfelapton Reviews, Star Trek Dec 29, 2020. Is he biologically a young child, a youth, or very old. The clown having a hissy fit in that episode of Voyager? Agreed. Was that because the ship was disabled? You might want to watch the film again. Is anyone suddenly having issues trying to stream the series from All Access? She’s not a waif, but she’s not fat. Low expectations meant I wasn’t disappointed with what we got, story wise. The episode had great characterization, action and pacing. The concept was just too lame from the get go to invest anything in it. Su'Kal was rescued from the wreckage of the Khi'eth and returned to Kaminar, where Saru could help him build a new life. Instead, there was 120 years of anarchy, organized crime and “I’m all right Jack, devil take the hindmost attitudes.”. “Is it just me? Relativity by M.C. With “Su’Kal,” Star Trek Discovery enters its third season’s third … I still think the raised by wolves analogy applies. Have to agree Tiger2, the Burn story had so much potential and the resolution seems like a big letdown. That was most likely a budget decision. Yeah, finding out that the Burn was caused by a kid’s tantrum … they’re kidding, right? “That said, it was hilarious to see Burnham accuse Saru of being emotionally compromised.”, Yes. Doug Jones is great, May Weisman has been excellent, and Wilson Cruz is at the top of his game. Why does every galaxy-altering event have to somehow connect personally to the crew? Your interpretation of those other episodes does not jive with mine or others. That’s what happened for me in S2 and PIC. In Su'Kal the latest episode of Star Trek: Discovery, actor Doug Jones sheds his Saru makeup to appear in the flesh for most of the episode.
