| Eddv 02/18/20 11:18:13 AM #234: | 51. Gabriel Lorca Daaaaaaaark because I have an eye condition Good Lord. I may have Burnham and Tilly ranked lower but is there anyone who embodies the squandered potential of Discovery more than Gabriel Lorca? Evidently its just the rule that Star Trek in the 2010s MUST be Grim and must see a darker version of humanity front and center with no room for hope unless that hope is in the form of actual Jean Luc Picard. Instead...big wet fart. Jason Isaacs is an incredible actor with a history of classical training and seemingly primed to join the ranks Avery Brooks, Leonard Nimoy , Ren Auberjonois, Patrick Stewart and Kate Mulgrew as the actor with true chops that anchors a memorable cast. Instead almost from the beginning he was pure caricature of the exact sort of person you wouldn't want captioning a starship even as the delivery was good. Context is for Kings etc. Practically emblazoned with the warning "I AM BAD GUY" Most notable is he had an eye condition that demanded that he have low lighting in his chambers. The problem? The rest of the Discovery is ALSO low lit. So it was just a pointless thing meant to let us know hes BROODFUL. His character is the reason I am certain Rios in Picard is gonna suck. What a waste of a good bit of casting. --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/AWY4xHy ... Copied to Clipboard! |
