well I hope y’all enjoyed my phone data-breaking (woops) AOS/STID rewatch. my eyes are tired I think I’ll take a good screen break

Earth looks really dreary in both reboot movies but especially stb. i mean what do we see? hyperurbanization of London and San Francisco, the seemingly endless quarries and shipyard in Iowa, the facist-inspired dress uniforms (NO HATS).

the ending of aos is about 750% corny and works….partially. maybe as the movie gets older itll work better.

well still 2.5hrs to kill gonna subject mysel to stid again

the AoS Enterprise really looks like it decked out its nacelles in a pair of nikes
