I grew up in a religious family and there was a guy at our church who claimed to understand all of the signs of the end times. I always found it funny that the scriptures say that even the angels in heaven and Jesus don't know the time or day, but some random guy has it all figured out!
Then again, maybe he's God and the joke is on us.

Redshirts don't just die. The reincarnate as Klingons or Nazis and later go on to make soundtracks for movies: Basil Poledouris[^]

I wonder if they spotted that? Star Trek Discovery.
Watched it. Very underwhelming. Why did they have to change the Klingons? Again? What purpose does that serve but to disconnect the universe continuity. Further, it was all FX and action and oddly placed flashbacks. Not great, bit boring. Still, might be better when they get to the Discovery and Jason Isaacs - a great actor.
Still think The Orville is better.

(By accident?) I watched The Orville - a knockoff series.
A good starting scene is followed by two more episodes of near complete predictability and childish dialog.
What comes to mind? Millennials, this is for you!

So it wasn't just me? Lots of funny once dialog replicated three or four times. I give it maybe 6 episodes, and it's done. Sort of an unfunny Galaxy Quest.

Maybe they had a bunch of actors lying around with no work? Why not make another remake, of a remake, of a remake, of a remake?

I don't think it is: I think it's a offshoot, of a reboot, of a remake, of a remake. It's bound to be different from the original, if only because our user interface technology has vastly surpassed the Original Series UI of clunking individual switches, and having anything worse than ours would be totally unbelievable1. And having aliens that look a bit less like a human in yet another rubber mask has got to be good - the original Klingons didn't even have rubber masks! 
Mind you, I haven't seen it yet, except for trailers.
1 - unless it had "iStarFleet" on it, in which case I'd prefer the clunky switches, please.

Havn't seen any DeVito lately,

I hear you. However, I am done with Star Trek. It is all just noise to me now.
So everything sounds like a remake of a reboot of a remake of a reboot - whether I am correct or not (probably not).

Wonder if a spoof of this would work? A bigger and badder switch for everything! Could call it Star Trek Clunkery.

I was ok with it until I saw Michelle Yeoh get beat easily by a Klingon. Not an army of Klingons. Not a small band of Klingons. ONE FREAKING Klingon! Michelle Yeoh??? I don't think so!

Yes - it was ok; a little confused but well done. None of his stories read that well so translating them for video is always going to be difficult.

"We wil remember your dreams for you, wholsale" wasnt it?
Bloody good film though. Arnie was classic in it!

Yup and spot on. He has made some great films, Arnie. Terminator I & II, Predator, Total Recall, Last Action Hero, True Lies, Twins. He's in pre-prod for the Terminator reboot -
