Ohneighguy sheemass meccha hakujin desu!
>>218213333it took me years to realize that Data had blue eyes in this scene instead of his normal yellow. Nice little touch for an alternate version of him.
>>218213337Shran? The man from Sisko's dream?
>>218213497Yeah I never even considered he had blue eyes IRL until that scene.
I though it was funny that in Faces of the Enemy, Troi goes missing for what must be a number of days, and yet no one on the Enterprise seems to care or even notice. No one asks, "Where's our ship's counsellor, on whom we all rely?"
>>218213333>>218213469TNG BDs have the Japanese dubUCHUUSOKO WA SAIGO NO FURONTIA
>>218213683TNG is spiritually anime.
>>218213683Do they call him Picard taisho? I assume they use Navy ranks.
>>218213615no, he's the man of MY dreams
is Data an ore or a boku?
>>218213674she wasnt on the ship when she was kidnapped. the problem with that episode is the universal translator magic.
>>218213825https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QE83S3f6zP4
>>218213864Data for sure uses watakushi. Riker uses ore. Wesley uses boku. Trou uses atashi.
>>218213741why did they make geordi cute?
>>218213913Kancho? Interesting.
>>218213941I meant to type Troi and I typed toru. My bad.
i'll never forget the way my Japanese professor explained the difference between "watashi" and "atashi" to our class. she said "watashi" in a normal speaking voice, normal way. then she hit like a slutty pose and said "atashi" in a slurry bimbo way.

>>218214097Like this?
i'll never forget the way my Japanese professor explained the difference between "kancho" and "kancho" to our class. She said one was a military rank in a normal speaking voice, and then she said the other one was a prank and then stuck her finger up my ass.
Thinking about deep space 9 desu
>>218214097oh yeah and I ended up being one of her favorite students or something she always really complimented my handwriting and whenever there were translation assignments and gave me a box of City Hunter books at the end of the semester
>>218214153but did you rike it?
Bring me more Lyran females, or else I will unleash the dogs of war.

Wow PIC is so bad
>>218214316on purpose
>>218214316THE SHEER FUCKING HUBRIS
>>218214316It looked bad so I simply didn't watch any of it. Or Discovery, or Academy, they did a Section 31 thing too didn't they? Or the cartoon with the little kids.
>>218213913pretty good
>>218214525the first half of the kids show is actually okay.
Janeway absolutely has sex appeal and so does B'Elanna.
>Japanese Data is the same guy who voiced Jiraiya in Narutohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JShPVYFajpM&t
>>218214785
>>218214947what is this gif even from?
It was a sex appeal hazard
>>218214980Did anybody else think that cake looked fucking disgusting? It looked like it was made of blue wax.
>>218214969probably the VCR game
>>218214995Bro you are talking shit about a signature 300 dollar Henson marzipan mint cake
>>218214995I always just thought it was an American thing to coat their cakes in obscene amounts of icing.
it's crazy how 3rd world chimps are always so obsessed with America apropos of nothing
>>218213975Japan Moe-ifies everyone.
>>218215081You guys are cake blindWhen a cake has a shell 99% of the time its marzipan
>>218215174that is an adorable crusher
>>218215187no, it's fondant.
>>218215187I'm just not a marzifan.I only real eat chocolate gateau and victoria sponge.
>>218215048>VCR gameI think I'm too young for this because despite being old enough to remember VHS, I had no idea there were games you could play on them. How the fuck would that even work?>>218215055Anon, it looks like a giant bar of soap.
>>218215187how did you not include the fuckass huge one from kes birthday?
>>218215174sex with ensign laren
>>218214819Japan has a habit of assigning female VAs to childlike or naive characters. So I'm glad they kept his voice baritone for the JP dub.
>>218215283Damn bro you missed out.Look up Nightmare Boardgame on youtube.
>>218215283you should go watch the disjointed parts on youtube because it is peak gowron
>>218215382>>218215425Oh I see, it was a boardgame that came with a VHS tape.I wonder why they got Gowron to play the Klingon who is supposed to not be Gowron.
>>218215174How long did Geordi spend in the women’s sonic showers in that episode before meeting up with Ro?
>>218215488Geordi always had x-ray vision. He could see through whatever wall he wanted. And he had encyclopedic knowledge of the ship's layout. Becoming translucent didn't really change much for him.
What did I think of Melona from that episode of Deep Space Nine? Is she SEXO?
>>218213435Did you know the guy who plays Weyoun plays the blue guy everyone wants to have sex with?
_____ ______: ___ ___ _____
>>218215812? I do not recall a bolian everyone wants to have sex with
>>218215812no way...>everyoneno, it's just me.
>>218215812Sonic the Hedgehog?
>>218215654I wondered why she never came back.
>fly to vegas ($400 round trip)>hotel room ($300/night)>entry tickets ($400-$1600)>photos/autographs ($100-$160 per actor)>$3k for a week in vegas (in august) and some photos/autographs from actorsseems a bit much
This guy was no founder, but I'm still glad he died angry, bitter, miserable, and alone
>>218216262I met Shatner a couple months ago yeah it’s not really worth it
>>218216301Was this a founder?
>>218216301same. this guy was a true example of his race: a total fucking cunt.>Hey Odo did you know that if you used all your abilities to act like a total antisocial psychopath you could make everyone afraid of you? no way you don't say, Laas. we truly needed an episode about this.
>>218213333Blessed thread
>>218216197I’m pretty sure that episode was one of the very special episodes where we learned not to force deaf people to get cochlear implants because being horrifically disabled is good, actually
>>218216301>>218216356garak was right to try and nuke the great link while they had the chance. shapeshifters are congenitally evil.
>>218216405Holograms are worse.
>>218216262i really liked layer cake
>>218216422rogue holograms are the human's fault for entertaining the idea they might be sentient instead of just deleting them at the first sign of trouble.
>>218216405Agreed. Section 31 didn't go far enough; they should have blasted these shits with Varon-t disruptors set to extra slow
>>218216301I love hetzler
>>218215284I have one with like 5 more cakes than that but I forgot its name :( I should finish cake rank, I have 8 cakes I can add to the chart which should feature every cake on star trek
>>218215240Delete this
If changelings really wanted to live in peace they should just transform into a big rock floating through space.
>>218217048What makes you think a good portion of them don't? What the hell did you think the original Great Link was?
>>218217070>What makes you think a good portion of them don't?are you fucking retarded?
Why would any Federation citizen living in absolute paradise willingly volunteer to go live on some colony planet in the outskirts of Federation space?
>>218217283>>218217070that seems to be their default policy but then for no reason at all they decide to conquer the alpha quadrant instead
>>218216664Why did the Female Changeling give herself such massive fucking honkers?
>>218217333you're a really impressionable retard who wants to LARP as some shit you say in a movie because you hate yourself for whatever reason and/or want to become a cult leader
>>218217347you're fucking stupid. this may sound harsh but you literally are. the female changeling literally explains in plain fucking language to the audience why they do what they do and you still don't fucking get it. talk to Worf, retard
The Changelings were always the least interesting part about the dominion
>>218217333Sci-Fi trope of humans colonizing the stars when realistically hardly anyone would ever want to live off Earth even if space travel was trivialized unless they were weirdo religious freaks. Earth is too comfy.
>>218217510What if they think Earth is too Reddit
>>218217510earth is full, only reason its comfy is because everyone fucks off to their own empty planets
worf was so much better on TNG than DS9. they really stripped him of everything that made him alien and took all the tension and conflict out of his character.
>>218217333Its like the most real thing you can do. You get real technology to really tame a planet, you get your ships and your super computers and your fabs. You get real authority and real community. You get real freedom to a degree.Its probably amazing living on federation earth, but its also probably like living in a menagerie, with your social credit scores and your prestige based economy and your movement credits. Its not an unauthentic experience in the slightest but its probably not real to a certain degree.
>>218217695>social credit scores and your prestige based economy and your movement credits.Is it ever stated that regular people use credits? I thought transporter credits and stuff was just for starfleet academy attendees
>>218217727nah they dont use any of that, theres still value in say ease of access or opportunity or nepotism but presumably everyone's too enlightened to let it be shit like real communism
>>218217599It's the Federation. Every human is Reddit.>>218217635Realistically how many people are required to make Earth non-comfy in a post-scarcity society? We still have plenty of undeveloped space in comfy places like the Midwest now, not even mentioning less desirable places like the Sahara or Antarctica.
>>218217685They never had any idea what worf was all about at any given point. He’s like this Klingon weeb that is into the mostesoteric Klingon shit that nobody actually still practices or cares about, and then the fundamentally Klingon behavior and values he always shies away from in favor of the safety of starfleet regs. He’ll flee a battle in an escape pod and spare his mortal enemies, live with dishonor for the needs of the many — but one hookup on the holodeck and he thinks he’s married and does the Klingon mating howl.
>>218216967i like how they put the ev suits in display cases like its a god damned romulan war museum. actually I hate it
>>218217510it would be like living in washington DC, everyone's job is government related or retards.
>>218217727star trek is explicity set in a universe where all of humanities basic needs are met at zero cost. the point being to explore morality without the restrictions of economics. there is no real explanation. you just need to accept the premise the same way you accept teenage mutant ninja turtles.
>>218217925the trick is that "humanity" in starfleet isn't humanity in current year
>>218217925Wdym? They got splashed with radioactive waste and got trained in martial arts by a sewer rat. Makes perfect sense
>>218217727To me, it seemed like it was a privilege to transport around earth multiple times a day by the way people in star trek talked about it, like it was a flex
lol
>>218217946My headcanon was always that the eugenics wars wasn’t eugenicists vs normies it was everyone doing eugenics to varying degrees and the remaining population after the nuclear holocaust don’t have dopamine/serotonin disorders or other bullshit that makes them degenerate gamblers, substance abusers and/or sexual deviants
>>218217977military students always gotta be disciplined>>218217984sick burn
>>218217764i am not a communist but it seems to me that its a matter of perspective. the quality of life communism can deliver today is utopia by 1950s standards.
>>218218021The quality of life the Amish can deliver in 2026 is Utopia by 2026 standards
Why is it that in Star Trek so many older women were trying to seduce young men? (Nog, Jake, Wesley, young Picard, etc)
>>218218070Patrick Stewart got to kiss a 17 yo and Michael Dorn got to kiss a 19 yo, it evens out I think
star trek sex with uhura
>>218218070star trek consistently tells the truth about women
>>218218070the federation as an idyllic utopia, it's only natural.
Star trek
>>218218497Star trek
>>218217837Descendants of diaspora tend to do that.
>dismantle data>ban holodecks>decompile the doctor>fire odo and deport him out of bajoran spacethere, i've just resolved half of the conflicts of 90's trek
>>218217855True, but there's really nothing stopping you from taking a reactor and replicator and fucking off into the woods of Montana or Scandinavia or something. All the comforts of living on a colony without the threat of pirates or rape gangs.
>>218218829Bait the borg into tholian territory
>>218218829Blow up the goddamned wormhole.
>>218213333I just started watching Star Trek last Halloween and I think TNG is by far the best. Voyager can be pretty good, but DS9 and Enterprise have been very boring.
>>218216967In space no one can hear you eat
You guys need to realize that in the Trek universe Earth is just like now, the majority of humans are running around wageslaving and only select families and people have any knowledge of Starfleet or their technology.
it's fucked up there's a dozen nutrek shows when i'd trade them all for 3 more seasons of ENThell, for one more season of ENT
>>218218975Yes that’s what happens when you give creative control of a beloved franchise to semitic nihilists
>>218218989I'd trade them all for one good movie, easily.
>>218217984>first contact specialist and xenolinguistThat in itself is way less valuable than Tuvok's job alone as tactical/second officer.Tuvok taught for like 26 years at the academy and is probably the most experienced tactical officer in the entire fleet. What a waste.
>>218214785She definitely does but then they stand Seven next to her and she looks like a frumpy old lady in her uniform
>>218218829Do what Worf says
>>218218829give Be'lanna a much needed dicking down
>>218218975>The billionaires are creating a break away society, they are in direct contact with alien species and trading technology in exchange for human childrenHe was right all along
>>218219098Didn't Tuvix possess the knowledge of both Tuvok and Neelix? He should be a great tactical officer, be able to mind-meld, know every 2-bit trader in the Delta quadrant and make a mean Leola-root stew.
>>218217355She knew Odo would be accustomed to solid women's big fucking honkers so she added them to her form to make him more comfortable.
>>218219225Yes but the idea that he ends up just being a xenolinguist in the game's storyline where you save him is a total waste of his talents, that's what I'm saying.
>>218219225Yeah that's the point of the episode really. Like Tuvix is a better tactical officer than Tuvok and a better chef than Neelix. But it seems like they deliberately never fully explain the Tuvix mechanics. Like does Tuvok still have any of Neelix memories? Do they remember their time as Tuvix? You would think Tuvok and Neelix would share a special brotherhood afterwards but Tuvok still treats Neelix like shit.
Struggling through season one of Voyager. Half the cast doesn't seem to want to be there, thank goodness for Tim Russ actually caring about the franchise. Akoocheemoya.
>>218219287The characters are all very safe and at first, seem pretty lame aside from Tuvok, the Doctor, and Paris to a lesser degree.Really, the show improves dramatically once Jeri Taylor fucks off with her momslop and Seven of Nine joins the show in S4.S2 has some really good and really bad moments though and all in all, I enjoy a lot of the early VOY episodes. There's a charm to the show that is hard to explain.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZiEjNzcJwo
>>218218829>decompile the doctorIt's funny how so much of Data's story in TNG is centered on him trying to become human and how he's supposedly exceptionally rare and impossible to replicate while Voyager starts with a computer program that is basically a human. More people would complain if Picardo wasn't so good.
>>218219287tim russ isn't even acting. he's just naturally like that.
>>218219272Yeah that makes sense, post-return Tuvix should be a polymath doing all kinds of shit. Xenolinguists are redundant anyway with the universal translator.
>>218219330>Computer, create a holosuite program smarter and more capable than Data in every way>Beep boop doneNoonien Soong would be rolling in his grave if he realized how easy it was.
>>218219287>>218219320Yeah the best way to think of early Voyager is a "back to basics" kind of star trek that harkens back to TOS. A lot of the plots could have been carried out with the TOS cast and fit right in. Like the one with Michael Mckean as an evil virtual reality clown.
>>218219364Presumably the ship's computer is somewhat larger than a humanoid, making the task of creating an android with real intelligence more difficult. Though I do suppose you could centralize an intelligence and embody it remotely, possibly with multiple bodies simultaniously.
>>218219330The Doctor runs off of a giant ship-based computer core whereas Data has to fit all his processing power into a space about the size of a human brain.
>>218219287I just started it recently too. It's not mindblowingly good but it's also not awful. Tuvok is easily my favorite character so far. Paris and Harry bro-ing it up is nice when they're permitted to do so, they have a good dynamic.
>>218219394>Presumably the ship's computer is somewhat larger than a humanoidThe Enterprise-D's computer core is the size of a building.
>>218219458COMPUTER!!!!!!!
>>218219458Imagine how much Bitcoin you could mine with that bad boy
>>218219481>>218219458The Enterprise D's computer is a dirty slut.
>>218219458That's bigger than several humanoids.
>>218219417Well considering they were using EMHs for menial labor, their processing requirements can't be that high.
>>218219669well they only have to be cheaper than the equivalent life support/safety shit
>>218219669One central computer and some holographic emitters is all you'd need.
>>218213333Does the Federation allow grooming and castration of children and support hamas? Just curious?
>>218219856Dr. Crusher personally restored my foreskin
>>218219669We are currently using vast amounts of energy, resources, and processing power so that indians can talk to their computer and boomers can generate pictures of jesus in the clouds.
>We are currently using vast amounts of energy, resources, and processing power so that indians can talk to their computer and boomers can generate pictures of jesus in the clouds.
>>218219918>I've managed to restore the missing tissue with a dermal regenerator, but Captain what kind of people would mutilate someone like this, especially in infancy?
>>218213497>>218213671He looks so much hotter without his eyeline all red and bloated from the irritation of the contacts.GUH
does anyone know where i can watch that god awful web series spiner made and starred in? it's like a sit com where he plays a fictionalized version of himself, i can't remember what it's called.
>>218217333>Why would any British citizen living in absolute paradise willingly volunteer to go live on some colony in the outskirts of the British empire?t. (You), 1687
>>218218829>dismantle DataShut your whore mouth
>>218218903I’ve never been able to get into anything besides TNG. All the other ones just seem more plot focused and autistic in a bad way.
>>218220275Except Britain was hardly a post scarcity paradise with zero persecution or discrimination in the 17th century.
>>218220216That sounds like something I would watch when I was trying to goad myself into suicide.It’s insane how such a charming and lovable character can be played by the most insufferable person.
>>218219856>PicardWould refuse to aid Hamas out of adherence to prime directive >RikerWould initially desire to aid them, but be talked out of it by a speech from Picard>DataWould ask Picard how two peoples could kill each other for multiple millenia over a piece of land of no actual value or significant resource deposits>CrusherWould demand Picard helps them, would eventually do something in secret that blows up out of proportion and forces the Enterprise to get involved>GeordiSubplot about falling in love with a Gazan girl that gets blown up>WorfWould consider the Gazans weak for failing to defeat the Israeli's, regardless of their circumstance, would be disgusted by the Jews underhanded tactics>TroiConveniently gone from the Episode to sus out the Jew lies >WesleyConverts to Islam
>>218220441Troi would be more like>"I sense strong feelings of distrust and hostility on both sides.">has no dialogue for the rest of the episode
>>218214785Nope. Ugly broads
>>218214129DIMPLES
why does kate mulgrew talk like THAT?
>>218221288Because her entire persona as an actress is aping Patricia Neal.
>>218221288>>218221413I feel bad for her kids
What grave did they dig up this fucking ghoul from? Can barely understand what she’s saying through her choking on her dentures every episode.
VOY "Critical Care" is supposed to portray some kind of dystopia but it just portrays the 100% real burger healthcare system
>>218215120wow you called it
>>218221943Are you a masochist? Why are you watching Academy, this is coming from someone that watched all of Discovery/SNW/Pic and even I cannot stomach it (or the Section 31 movie, skipped that too)
>>218219287Get used to it, they don't really improveEventually they just realise the only characters anyone really cares about are the Doctor and Seven but that's pretty deep into Voyager at that pointAfter a certain point the main appeal is morbid curiosity and "there's no other Trek because I've watched the good stuff and the rest is shit"
>>218223112always feel sad for a fella who can't fathom that it's a fucking cup, for drinking
>>218221943I'd actually watch this if they had Captain Gillian Anderson.
>>218222120Work Force is supposed to be a dystopia but they have basically no unemployment
>>218221943she used to be a real cootiepie back in the day. her first role was in a horror movie called The Burning
>>218221943Things are so grim right now.
>>218223949Someone pointed out she voiced Elastigirl aka Mrs. Incredible in the pixar movie and now every time I have the misfortune of seeing a SA clip (usually against my will) it’s all I can hear and think about

>>218224245why is worldbuilding in trek so shit>Federation of 100's of aliens + colonies>everyone is earthborn humanAt least could have dude born on mars, or some fictional planet
ferengi are sensible, freedom-loving businessmen who are oppressed by fascistic rulefag organizations like the federation
>>218219098TRVTH NVKE. Tuvix needed to die to preserve Tuvok's undiluted tactical expertise alone. General Neelix pedo stink aside, we don't need the brain of a chef with delusions of grandeur / wannabe counselor added to the mix. You just know that had he lingered a bit longer, Tuvix would have been sitting up on Tuvok's console barefoot just like that quirk chungus hag from Starfleet Academy. >Wanna unpack today, champ? You know I make a mean pot of Betazoid spaghetti.No-one cares, fuckface. Just do your bastarding job and blow up those fucking Kazon bastards!
>>218225055Seven of Nine was born on the Tendara colony. B'Elanna was from Kessik IV if that counts. Also Travis "MOTHERFUCKING FREIGHTERS" Mayweather lived in space.
>>218220216Fresh Hell, iirc
>>218225055The good news is that this franchise is so deep in the dumps and swirling down the toilet that hopefully when they finally let it rest in peace for a decade or so, they will have time to reboot it from scratch and will have a chance to restructure/flesh out the lore of the new timeline
>>218224972grim
>>218225350robert retardo
just woke up from a Star Trek dream>Data had a typical holodeck adventure set in a western, except the world also featured Who Framed Roger Rabbit-style animated cartoon characters>he entered a saloon, and for some reason brought his horse in with him. The saloon doors became cartoons and patted his horse down, which also became a cartoon for the sequence. After letting them through they all became real again>Data went up to the bar and met up wirh the episode's guest star, Jim fucking CarreyI woke up and thought "wow! I don't remember that episode! I need to look that up!" before realising "wait, that can't be real, Star Trek didn't have the budget for that" before then realising "wait, you just woke up, that was a fucking dream you retard"
>>218225321It's not going to go away for a decade and there's not going to be any new timeline.
Tuvix was a creep. He made everyone uncomfortable. He was flashy and annoying. They don't need a freak who can shoot missiles and bake pies. They need a separate missile shooting dark elf and a spaghetti twirling kender. That's way more valuable. Fuck Tuvix. He wasn't even an individual. No one died when Tuvok and Neelix were separated. In fact Janeway gave life to two people. Dismissed.
>>218225442$1 trillion to Kurtzman
>>218225350>Please state the nature of the transvestite emergency.>Starfleet Academy has suffered 41% losses!>-ACK
>>218225321Why do you think that would happen next time when they had the opportunity to do it this time But didn't? The world building only became worse.
>>218225449You're going to be so upset when his contract is extended again.
>>218225405I love dreams like that. You basically got a whole new episode.
>>218225456One joke.
would it be gay to fuck odo if he shapeshifted into a female? he's not actually male after all.
>>218225541>Odo in his room alonehttps://youtu.be/viKGFlTtZ3Y
>>218225573I was expecting the clip where Odo destroys his room in an incel rage because Kira friendzoned him with the Chad Shakaar.
>>218225489Unironically if they keep him on, there needs to be some kind of investigation. There has to be corruption somewhere.
>>218220441Janeway would clumsily help hamas then after putting up with their bullshit for a few days, betray them by science babbling Palestine so no one could have it
>>218225656Corruption in Hollywood? Are you some kind of conspiracy theorist?
>>218225055>At least could have dude born on mars, or some fictional planetSome people were born on the moon.
>>218225712I know, I may be stepping out of line here
>>218225321>they will have time to reboot it from scratchThere's no talent left to do that. Nor any executive will to produce a product of any level of quality that we would be satisfied with.There's no "good news" until the "Star Trek" name itself is public domain and people that give a shit and are competent can do something worthwhile with it.

>>218225489Kek yup I’m not denying it, I know it’s going to happen
>>218220275This niggas never been to England (it's a fucking shithole)
>>218225526Yeah, it's called your life
>>218226067I haven't seen a burn that harsh since some Kelpien kid cried and all the dilithum in active warp cores exploded
>>218226038>England (it's a fucking shithole)Fucking is in Austria. It's just a shithole.
Star Trek needs to be good, but how do you make it good? Barring the terrible writing and dialogue we have now, you can't just go back to formula like the good old days, the Berman era died because he was insisting on it sticking to formula and it got stale.
>>218226143Hire GRRM to write an original Star Trek spin-off for HBO. Make it gritty and realistic, with well-written characters.
>>218226143The mantle has passed on to the Orville.
>>218226168No George, get off 4chan and finish writing your fucking books
>>218226143>you can't just go back to formula like the good old daysyou absolutely could, there's 0 real reason why it wouldn't still work
>>218226143Actually make it look retro like an episode of Mad Men instead of it looking like an Apple store with lens flare.Hire attractive people you actually want to look at.Write stories about actual ethical issues instead of identity politics.
>>218226206So basically the exact opposite of any Beefers post. Got it.
>>218225276So Voyager was the first Trek series that remembered that earth has colonised other planets?
rape gangs
>>218226143You can go back to the same formula, actually, because at its core the simplest “formula” here is just a crew on a ship offering stories on the human condition. It’s that simple. How you actually play with that idea is open to much interpretation and can be done great like TOS or TNG, or done awfully like STD or SA. ENTs issue was that fans were already suffering fatigue and they wasted almost no time from VOYs ending to starting up yet another series, combined with the fact that it was always struggling to find confidence and identity. And of course being a prequel to a show made in the circa 1960s that had done nothing but move forward kind of turned people off.If they had waited like 5, 7, perhaps 9 years after VOY and done a series that instead took place 100 years after TNG it probably would have been a smashing hit.
>the wealth gap and immigration are huge issues in our society right now>let's write episode after episode about how our characters are LGBTQ+ instead
>>218226143I don't hate the "President Archer builds the Federation" concept
>>218226260economic class is the one thing they don't want you talking about on TV
>Sisko receives one of Starfleet's highest honors for his tireless efforts in fighting the Dominion, but on the night of the ceremony...
>>218226288They brought it up in Picard and it made no fucking sense, with these writers it'd be hamfisted no matter how they do it.
>>218226288So instead they shove non-issues in our face to distract us and then call us right wing assholes for being sick of this petty bullshit.
>>218226288>>218226315TOS had episode featuring Cloud City that had themes of classesFirst and last time??
>>218226315>implying I watched PicardDS9 did it the best with the union episode. You literally could not make this episode today.
>we want minority representationOkay, what about MAJORITY representation? Where is my representation as the proletariat who makes up 99% of the population?
>>218226362The Orville episode about the social media social credit scores is a good allegory and hence why I think it's inherited the mantle of true speculative scifi.
>>218226288>economic class is the one thing they don't want you talking about on TVHollywood has been using rich asshole villains for its entire existence, this isn't true at all. The reason they write about identity politics is because they really, legitimately care about it.
>>218226067Picard would hate transphobes.
>>218226362Are you seriously implying that wasn't also awfully ham fisted, it'd fit right in with the shit they write today>teleplay by Ira Steven BehrHuh, who could've guessed!?It's so weird how they had so many episodes fleshing out the Ferengi so their society actually made some sense and would function only to attempt to tear it down with a cartoon idea of communism
>>218226458The point of the rich asshole villain is to leave the audience thinking, "Thank god that asshole is gone. Now everything's going to be fine."You don't need any further reform if the one bad guy is dealt with because, of course, everything bad stemmed from that one individual.
>>218225447you post this like anyone disagrees, tuvix is an abomination
>>218226458They hire writers who use scripts as therapy sessions instead of writers who actually want to tell a story. I don't know what they are teaching people in screenwriting classes anymore that has caused everyone to become so self obsessed.
>>218226473>The first duty of every Starfleet officer is to the truth, whether it's scientific truth or historical truth or personal truth! It is the guiding principle on which Starfleet is based.Failed incels pretending to be girls is a scientific lie and a personal delusion.
>>218226458in half the movies with a rich villain the solution is for the poor people people to acquire money so they can challenge the rich asshole within the same economic framework he made his exorbitant wealth in to begin with
>>218226486In the context of the Ferengi and how Quark treats his employees it is a great episode. If there was a Ferengi acting as a metaphor for Jeff Bezos I would laugh and not bat an eye.It would be less try hard than a gay pasicifist Klingon doctor or whatever.
>>218226498>I don't know what they are teaching people in screenwriting classes anymore that has caused everyone to become so self obsessedthey probably just list your posts and tell the "writers" to copy paste

>>218226623idk what that is you sad sack of shit. But I have encountered so many things I have made over the years I'm not surprised
>completely randomly Star Trek Nemesis is on tv in Finland tonightWtf? I don't think I've ever seen anything ST on tv here except maybe the Jayj Kelvin flicks
>>218226630I prefer to live in the reality of weyoun 6, whos just a nice guy he doesn't want anything from you he would just like a friend.
>>218226690Nobody can tell Finland apart from Sweden and Norway. I am sorry. To America you're just one big Ikea.
>>218226630he's always nice even when you're a total fuckup who takes an entire year to take down the wormhole like you said you would and never stop yapping about stupid shit
>>218226731its ok, nobody in the entire world can tell the difference between Finland, Sweden and Norway. I think finland is colder or something idk, no-one does.
>>218226731Finnish people look like Buck Bokai.
>>218226762*minefield
>>218226731Why are you lying?Sweden is famous due to IkeaFinland is famous due to Nokia and Perkelle
>>218226762I want to sell my people to the dominion because my people suck. imagine how much better the founders would run everything. the dominion seems pretty stable on the other side of the wormwhile, why WOULDN'T you want to join? the fuck the federation got to offer but infinite wars with every single neighbor?imagine living the perfect trad life in your village growing wheat with your blonde family and no one will ever mess with it or allow liberal democratic government to spoil it because the founders will always watch the skies and send the jem'hadar if someone starts talking about dipshit ideas
>>218226783are you sure you aren't talking about norway? sorry mate bf is right here, literally no-one knows or cares what the difference is, I mean be honest is their one? Not a burger btw

Chat, is this pic real?
>>218226731get outta here check'em is mine as well, come to think of it you have zero imgs you've made yourself. Putting aside the nordic countries which I think we can all agree are the same place. You BF don't have a single img you got yourself, just stuff you took from other anons, even your bashir faggotry was from another anon. Have you ever contributed anything besides your hideous form? Or completely off topic anime shit that you stole from /a/? Can you even make an image yourself? anything, anything at all?

>>218226886She's so quirky!
>>218226597The Picard Song being used in YTMNDs back in the early 00s was my firdt exposure to post-TOS Star Trek. I didn't even known there were Star Tracks made beyond the 60s show and 80s movies.
>If Wishes Were Horses (May 16, 1993): Avery Brooks was initially opposed to the script for this episode. Brooks refused to begin filming until a compromised was reached, shortening the nickname of Keone Young's character to just Buck Bokai.
>>218227007Buck status?
>>218226933but which one? apparently they think they are 3 different countries 4 if you count iceland, I know sounds wild, you tell me where did darude sandstorm come from? all you can say and all I can say is those icelandic lads.
It's fantastic reading the comments about young, black people inspired to try tech by Levar.For me, Data was the character who resonated, but I only found out why, a year ago, when diagnosed as autistic. Thanks, Brent. You may not have realised it, but your character was coded as neurodiverse.

>>218227017I am genuinely curious here where did that track come from, why do you think anyone knows or differentiates between you? I guess sweden is known for its porn and general nudity? is sewden one of those? weird to think about since apparently I am 1/2 norwegian. Genetically, I have no idea what that means, I assumed you 3+iceland are basically the same.

Does anyone else skip the Klingon politics episodes in TNG? I just do not care about an honor-obsessed culture always having storylines about being honorless schemers.
>>218227235>Brought to you by Quarks bar! Fine root beer for fine Federation citizens! Come to Quark's, Quark's is fun, come right now, don't walk...RUN!
>>218227287No because they're fantastic. You sound like a faggot and I'm not surprised you're the type of squalid loser that feels uncomfortable watching TV and needs to skip it.

>>218227334>try not to stare>try not to stare>stare>beats me up>:)
>>218227334Before I got into Star Trek all these years ago, and my only knowledge was what I gathered from cultural osmosis, I just assumed Klingons were these extremely well-defined aliens with a rich backstory and lots of crystal clear lore. Shit, people would learn the klingon language?! This must be some serious stuff. Same with the Vulcans, and the Romulans.Well, then you watch TOS. And then you watch TNG. And then you watch all the theatrical movies. And you realize these are all just people in makeup and that the writers are kinda just going loosely by the seat of their pants, only adding convenient vague lore for whatever the episode or shitty movie plot needs at that given moment
Klingon women have two clits.
>>218227361Gowron's their sole saving grave.>>218227377Nah, I just felt validated by them and brave enough to finally get it off my chest.
>>218227595And you can't find either of them.
>>218227595do they have ridges on they pussy too?
Did they join the Federation?
>>218227616I found one of them, on Gowron's forehead.
Helm, set a course for >>218227659Engage
>>218227287But then you miss the satisfaction of the hypocrisy being called out and torn down in DS9.
>>218227550By the time I finished watching all of True Trek (1965-2005) the only alien culture I could find myself getting immersed in was Cardassia's.
>>218227550Coming up with all this worldbuilding ahead of time would cost time and money, and then when it finally comes in an episode it'd probably get in the way of what that writer intended and they'd change it anyway
>>218226731I only know the difference because I've listened to a lot of metal bands.
