/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Yeah so I'm just going to stop you cuz you're kind of full of shit. The studio insisted that it be a 3D movie and they hardly marketed it and when it was marketed it was marketed as Dredd 3D. It was released during a lull when a lot of trash 3D releases were being made. They essentially doomed the theater turnout by tacking on 3D at the end which made people assume it was just going to be a shitty cash grab.
Once people got past that and actually started watching it, it became insanely popular after its theatrical run.
I'm sure the original production company didn't get much of any of the profits from after the theatrical run but the reason it almost ruined the company WAS because the studio forced decisions on to the production company that ended up killing their business.
Also why would anyone ever insist that executives didn't fuck something up? That's their entire job. They do a half assed job, take all the money they can, then bail. Then new executives are expected to clean up the mess, but guess what they do? The only thing executives know how to do they pillage and rape fuck the employees over more than the last c suite did and then bail.
But more importantly the buck stops somewhere. It stops with the CEO and the executives. Any failure is on them. Any success is mostly on the employees and possibly related to their guidance. A well running machine can run for a very long time without requiring interference.
If a well running machine suddenly runs into issues it's always because of the leadership/captain

Last I heard, there's an animated miniseries in the works.
