Benjamin Sisko editionLast time on /trek/ >>222885761
what was "the incident"?
>>222909871The program "unlimited nuggie worx" went sentient
let's continue discussing Archer's worst moments. that's fun to me.
>>222909982I think WHAT THE FUCK TRIP YOU TAUGHT THAT SLAVE HOW TO READ AND NOW THESE SUPPOSED ENLIGHTENED ALIENS ARE MAD AT ME!!?? FUCK YOU!!!! was his worst
sex
star trek sex resulting in vulcan psychic AIDS
Bombard Vissia with quantum torpedoes.
>>222909982insectoid nursery was probably the best unhinged archer. night in sickbay also deserves a lot of consideration. havent decided how i feel about him telling sim hes gonna harvest his brainstem come hell or high water, but i think i like it.
>>222910092>haha we're so much more enlightened and advanced than you silly humans :)>you think it's weird that sentient beings are just a fuckdoll to us? HOW DARE YOU JUDGE OUR CULTURE!hated these smug pieces of filth
>>222910122insectiod nursery was like the one time I felt like Archer was acting in the way I would actually expect a Starfleet captain to. of course you have to save helpless babies even if they're of the race of your enemy. they can't help that. it's like a no brainer for anyone with integrity. but no, it turns out he was only like that due to literal mind control. and of all the terrible reckless and unhinged things Archer did, saving babies was the thing everyone was about to mutiny over. Enterprise is so depressing. you watch it and you're like damn maybe humanity is fucking lame and we don't deserve to go to space.
>>222910092>>222910159It's a crying shame they wasted the best actor from Babylon 5 on a terrible fucking episode
>>222909871Trepku’s rape-horse holoprogram became self-aware and raped everyone on the ship.>>222910092Oh shit it’s the one-armed man who killed Harrison Ford’s wife.
>>222910242You don't understand. This was after 9/11. Those insects were Taliban babies and spiritually responsible for the laser that circumcised Florida.
>>222910092Commander Tomalak??
Star....TREK
>>222910683BARASH?!
>>222909846Am I the only one who likes Avery Brooks? I like his dry humor and quirky choices and line deliveries. Not saying he's the best actor on the show by any means, but I'm still entertained.
another one of Archer's worst moments is when he let the ship get taken over by Orions. he constantly falls for Looney Tunes tier "look over there!" types of scams and ruses and refuses to adhere to even the most basic common sense protocols to keep the ship and crew safe. like im not even in the military but I have worked on government contracts and I practice more opsec in a daily basis just writing code than Archer ever did on the entire show being in charge of the most advanced technology humanity ever created
>>222910875Entertaining? sure, I chuckle AT his LINES, OHH HOW I... chuckle...
>>222910875youre not the only one. hes what you call a pleb filter.
>Watch Nemesis>Worf does jack shit the whole movie>Even Troi is more useful than him
>>222910875ds9 hater here (one of many)love brooks. if they had a serious captain i wouldnt be able to enjoy ds9 ironically as i have for decades. i dont know if its him or the writers or berman or what but sisko has a knack for going off the rails right when i start getting bored with the all soap opera will they wont they shit.
>>222911097what do you want him to do. at that point he was a diplomat serving under the coward martok running the empire as a vassal state of the federation. if only he knew thats why section 31 kidnapped him from kithomer.
he's in 174 episodes but i feel like these one scene jobs happen a lot more than with the other captains. was that part of the plan or just how it worked out?[Captain's office]ODO: Captain, here's the report on that smuggling ring you requested. Should I forward the information to the Zevian authorities?SISKO: I'll let you know in a minute.(As Sisko reads the PADD, Odo begins humming 'The Way You Wear Your Hat')ODO: (singing) No, no, they can't take that away from me. The way your smile just beams.(Sisko is clicking his fingers to the beat.)ODO: Yes, Captain?SISKO: Oh, don't stop on my account.ODO: Stop what?SISKO: You were singing.ODO: I was singing?SISKO: (sings) No, no, they can't take that away from me.ODO: You're right. I was singing. They can't take that away from me.SISKO + ODO: We may never, never meet again on that bumpy road to love.
>>222910907you just dont get why we're out here but we love you anyway, malcolm.
>>222911399No, after rewatching DS9 several times I start to notice that Sisko is less present than any of the other captains. He's in every episode, but many of them for only one scene.
>>222909871He just downloaded the Barclay program.
>>222911399>>222911555ds9 is the only truly ensemble trek show and hads loads of side characters so ofc any single character isn't in it as much
>>222911620It's because he's a lazy NIGGER
>>222911620my question is from the 1990s perspective. was it planned for sisko to play a smaller role and develop the rest od the cast or was that forced by brooks being a nut?
>>222911719he isnt a nut.
>The decision to set the series on a space station, rather than a starship, spawned when Brandon Tartikoff originally approached Rick Berman about the show, in 1991, and specifically said he wanted it to have a format that was new for Star Trek but was classically western; if The Next Generation was Wagon Train in space, Deep Space Nine was to be The Rifleman in space – a man and his son coming to a dilapidated frontier town on the edge of known civilization. Berman brought this concept to Michael Piller, and together they set about creating a western in space. As Robert Hewitt Wolfe later explained, "We had the country doctor, and we had the barkeeper, and we had the sheriff and we had the mayor, we had it all, it was all there. We had the common man, Miles O'Brien, the Native American, Kira."Huh. It's true, isn't it. >>222911719I think it was planned that way>As Rick Berman, speaking in 2002, stated, "The show was land-based, but the benefit we got from that was that by staying in one place, it enabled us to create twenty or thirty secondary and recurring characters, which really enriched the show because of all the multi-layers of relationships that have existed over the years. It's a very character-driven show as a result, and I think that makes it quite unique."Avery Brooks had been working in television for quite some time at that point so I'm pretty sure they were familiar with his quirks.
>>222911807Yes, more Trek fans need to watch old westerns like Wagon Train and The Rifleman.They really don't realize what they're missing out on or how familiar those shows will feel to them.
Next week on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds: pike get mpreg
>>222909846Star Trek is for people who have no friends.
>>222911807>the Native American, Kiraakoocheemoya
Data's brain which should have been an episode title is too complex to be replicated. The Doctor, on the other hand, can be perfectly recreated ad infinitum and he does not deserve rights. I was rock hard when his crush created a version of him that was a better singer. Fuck that faggot.
>>222912312>was a better singer.kek autistic star trek fans are hilarious
Anyone care to buy a matter to antimatter converter?
>>222912405why would I want antimatter?
>>222912312>Data's brain is too complex to be replicatedIt's only because he's made from old analog technology which no one specializes in anymore. It's like CRTs. No one can build them as well as they used to be because the expertise is lost knowledge but they're still old technology.
>>222912405why for clean nuclear fuel and bombs too if need be.
>>222912421>why for clean nuclear fuel and bombs too if need be.oops i miss fired. kek.
Odo is gross to look at.
>>222909871Caught watching STD on the big screen.
>The official franchise—from The Original Series to modern iterations like Discovery and Strange New Worlds—has never included tickling in its scripts or broadcast episodes.Anyone else find this weird?
>>222912421Maybe you're in the Southern hemisphere where toilets flush backwards, did you ever think of THAT?
>>222912465Odo had sex with Kira and you're still a virgin lmao
been thinkin bout going to see search for spock by myself this weekend
Which TNG episodes are you go-to's to introduce someone to Star Trek?For the very first thing they watch, I recommend:>S3E04: "Who Watches The Watchers">S2E09: "The Measure of a Man">S5E02: "Darmok"in my shortlist of episodes to show soon after are:>S2E16: "Q Who" (introduces the Borg)>S3E10: "The Defector" (good Romulan intro episode)>S4E14: "Clues" (good whodunnit with creepy Data)>S4E15: "First Contact" (another first contact story but with more advanced aliens)>S5E05: "Disaster" (fun looks at many characters thinking their way out of problems)>S5E06: "The Game" (actually good Wesley ep)>S5E18: "Cause and Effect" (good mystery)>S5E25: "Inner Light" (beautiful)
>>222912554technically odo doesnt have sexual organs
>>222912554he put a SLIME PSEUDOPOD that he formed for the general purpose of sex into Kira's (absolutely run through by multiple species) Bajoran pussy. The only proper sex-analogue he had was when he blobbed out with the rest of his genocidal kin.
>>222912591That just makes it worse that he smashed a baddie from bajor and you're still fucking your own hand and virgin loser.
>>222912581My go-to's are usually Duet and Balance of Terror.I have been thinking a bit about a TNG option though, and I'm leaning towards Conundrum. It's a solid mystery, shows the moral core of the Federation, and has a twist that really only works for someone who doesn't know the cast.
"Spock's Brain" has a different meaning in today's slang
>>222912581Not TNG but I love The Corbomite Maneuver, fun little perfect Trek episode and a great showcase of Kirk's character.
>>222912702>DuetThat is very interesting. To my mind, starting with anything DS9 is a big no-no, even if it's my favorite.>Balance of TerrorGreat pick>ConundrumAlso a great pick, though since they don't know the crew the fact that there's a stranger aboard might hit a bit different>>222912825>Corbomite Maneuverexcellent
>>222909982>Well, Black Science Man the anomaly that was formerly your son brutally killed one of my crew members and almost blew up the Enterprise. But don't worry, I'll stop at nothing to help you get your dead gay son out of subspace.
>>222910875He's my favourite Trek captain.
The best TNG episode to show someone is undoubtedly Cause and Effect.
>>222912906ALL HANDS ABANDON SHI-
>>222911807>It's true, isn't it. No it's not they stole from JMS and ripped off B5!!!!
>>222912939I actually choked back laughter when I realized what they pulled with Section 13 -> Section 31Those bastards got away with it
>>222912966Or rather Bureau 13, whatever
>>222912844NTA but I think Duet is fine if you're "playing the hits" to get someone interested. I guess the danger of that strategy is that if they're hooked and really like it, then you've stolen some of the best episodes they would've had ahead of them.
>>222912844I think I understand your reluctance to use DS9, but I think Duet in particular is just a great standalone that can sell people on what Trek is. Doesn't spoil anything, all the context you need for the history between cardies and bajorans is given at the start by Kira, it has the classic moral lesson, and primes new viewers with the idea that the show can be tense and gripping without a bunch of action and special effects.>though since they don't know the crew the fact that there's a stranger aboard might hit a bit differentThat's partly why I chose that episode. That experience is only possible if it's the first episode you show them, and they can always go back and rewatch it for the experience the rest of us had.
>>222913031>and they can always go back and rewatch it for the experience the rest of us had.Not quite. For me, the first time I watched DS9 I knew nothing about it, had heard nothing about it, didn't follow a guide, wasn't really told about it by anyone specifically. I had no idea Duet was coming, particularly since I had such low expectations about S1 after TNG's S1. It hit me like a sledgehammer because it was totally unexpected and I wasn't really sold on the Bajoran/Cardassian thing really until that episode.
>TOSWagon Train + Forbidden Planet>TNGStar Trek + The Love Boat>DS9The Rifleman + Babylon 5>VOYTng + Gilligan's Island>ENTVoy + Quantum LeapTrust me I'm an expert
You know remember the time Worf joined a Federation fundamentalist group and reenacted the plot to Recess the Movie by ruining everyone's summer vacation.
>>222913105>and reenacted the plot to Recess the Movie
>>222913089>Gilligan's IslandDefinitely Lost in Space but close enough, I guess. And ENT is more like VOY + CW sloppa or some shit.
>>222913088That line was about Conundrum, referring to the greentext.
>>222911767people said he cried for about half an hour at the breakdown scene when the publisher didn't wanna sell his black science fiction...he's atleast a medium on the crazy scale
>>222913156My bad
>>222913135>Definitely Lost in Space but close enough, I guess.You are NOT an expert like me.
>>222913267Yeah, it's a good easter egg. But it's still Lost in Space. Don't make me dig up writer quotes of them saying it directly because they definitely exist.
>>222913162haven't read a single account of anyone ever saying he was challenging to work with. in fact everyone mostly just glazes him for how detail oriented he was and how they liked when he was directing. he was only a bit weird in an interpersonal context like you wouldn't really try to make smalltalk with him.
>>222913292Go ahead. I actually watch Lost in Space. You've never seen a single episode. Voyager has more in common with Andromeda than Lost in Space.
>>222913344Well you're right about that and I can't find any quotes, so I will honorably concede. I did watch part of an episode of Lost in Space and I thought it was gay btw.
>>222913294crazy doesn't mean bad, sometimes crazy good.
>>222913491Don't let your seethe hit you on your way out.
>>222913641>seetheAbout what? I just did the most impossible thing on 4chan: admit I was wrong.Was not wrong about that being a fag show for retards thoughbeit.
>>222910122It was about the survival of the human race!Still pretty bleak though.
What 90s/early 00s sci-fi show should I give a shot instead of always just rewatching Trek + X-Files? Stargate has always intrigued me but 200+ eppies and multiple shows+movies is rather daunting. I've also wanted to give B5 a shot because of the whole DS9 connection.
How did this not count as spam? jans let it go on for months
>>222914215Stop what you're doing and go watch B5It's that goodStargate is also good but not B5-tier
>>222914223This was a powerful, unbeatable show for one that always hovered below 1 million viewers.
>>222914254I second B5 immediately Stargate is great too, with its length you can watch it more casually. It loves to string out its longer arcs so just enjoy it as an episodic show with progression.
>>222909858star trek sex with wesley
>>222912554I kneel. My solid ass could never satisfy the major.
>>222914215Stargate SG-1 is probably second only to TNG in terms of being fucking comfy. Makes you want to live in a military bunker under a mountain.Babylon 5 is a bit overrated but it has a great war arc. After that, it kind of falls apart in the end, and most people are thrown off by the change in lead actors between S1 and S2 but that's because the original guy has a horrible mental illness that comes outta nowhere. But they find a way to cleverly and tastefully bring him back and include him later.B5 has great line to line writing though, some fantastic characters and acting performances.
>>222912664He and the female Changeling had solid sex to see what it was like, but it wasn’t enjoyable for either of them.
>>222913105That’s kind’ve a weird episode, since it’s very specifically about 1990s post-Cold War military spending cuts and force reductions by the United States and the West more broadly.
>>222910159Drennik was so stereotypically jewish looking, if he wasn't a jew, he sure missed a good chance.

>>222912581My girlfriend enjoyed Data's Day. Otherwise she's just seen random clips I've shown her.
I often find myself thinking of what it would be like to be interrogated by a trio of curious Tal Shiar women.
>>222912581Cause and Effect feels like the most "this is what Star Trek is" episode, though it's missing the emotional and ethical aspects that are also major aspects of Trek. I guess I'd go with Measure of a Man and Inner Light for those.For the other shows I'd say Corbomite Maneuver, Duet, Deadlock, and A Night in Sickbay are good intros to what those shows are all about.

>>222909846Hahaha. Deep Space Swine ain’t Trek. Never was. Never will be.
>>222915717Better than Goyager and Benterprise.
>>222915717It literally says Star Trek in the title
>>222915756Doesn't mean I have to like it.
>>222910875>Am I the only one who likes Avery Brooks?Why did they always have him kissing his teenage son?
>>222915923Something about black dads. Like the good fathers, they have to over compensate for the reason the single mom epidemic is astronomical in their community they have to be overly affectionate with their kids
>>222915923
>>222916033I didn't realize that was still a problem in the 24th century.
>>222916055There's a reason they never went to Africa whenever they visited earth. Borderline buttfucking.
>>222915923You realize every race but germanics (not counting french) and asians are like that right
>>222916425Citation needed.I've watched plenty of Japanese and Korean TV and I can't ever recall seeing a father kiss his teenage son. Seen a decent amount of Telemundo too, no kissing.
I was watching this random video yesterday and it was 2 NK detectors/escapees and they were showing them video of American babies and their parents and asking them to talk about what life was like for them with their fatheds growing up. And the older guy literally pointed to the screen and was like>In developed, capitalist countries fathers love and play with their children like this he said in NK it's always mothers and that fathers are never affectionate. he also said that you're so fucking hungry all the time you're angry and take it out on the kid
>>222910875He gets a lot better when he shaves his head and grows a goatee.
>>222910875He almost immediately became my favorite captain. His relationship with Jake did a lot to ground him. I also like they didnt write him as the anti Picard but as his own character. I really dislike how they ended his arc, though.
>>222916614He'll come back once he gets those cigarettes.
>>222916474>I've watched plenty of Japanese and Korean TV and I can't ever recall seeing a father kiss his teenage son.Can you read

>>222917669Oh dear oh my I seem to have accidentally dosed myself with the aphrodisiac again!
>>222917648>>222917694I think this guy is the biggest nepobabby in Star Trek. Denise Crosby being the second biggest.
>>222917750who's kid is he?
>>222917800kid of sudanese political elite, nephew of actor and director
>>222917800
>>222918340>but how do you know what their values areI'm so sick of these "people".
>>222909846What would be a mirror universe of nu trek? Actualy good show?
>>222917750
>>222918774>What would be a mirror universe of nu trek?Probably DailyWire slop
>>222909846i haven't laughed at a pepe in over a decade
Nu Trek cannot hurt you if you dont acknowledge its existence. I will simply watch TNG until I die.
>>222919422>i haven't laughed in over a decade
It can't hurt you if you acknowledge its existence because TV shows can't hurt functional adults.
>>222918950Hey, she worked hard to get those roles.
I dont like it when people take my posts and rewrite them, are you the same guy on /gg/ stop gang stalking me
is it worth sitting in a room with other people to see TMP in theaters? ive seen it a dozen times on tv.
>>222920171>is it worth sitting in a room with other peopleno
>walk past jadzia's quarters>despite soundproofing hear GLUK GLUK GLUK GLUK GLUK>but i just saw worf on the promenade not even two minutes ago
>>222920171Yeah man it's on the theater screen with the big speakers. It's wroth it.

i dont remember ds9 well enough at this point but is there a reason they didn't move ezri to Voyager? she only did one season but she was super cute. is it because of that hag janeway
>>222920239voyager was already in its 4th season so it wouldn't have made much sense
>>222920239I'm not in a position to check right now, so someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I dimly recall that Voyager started at season 6 of deep space nine and therefore it still would have been jetzia
>>222920262it started during s4 of dsninny
>>222920239She would have mogged the Voyager girls too hard and it would have made them depressed.
>>222920270they should have hired her to be seven of nine so that they could have hidden her lopsided eyes with borg face cybernetics
>>222920269Thanks
Begun, the de boer wars have.
>>222912405I have a 100 gross of self-sealing stem bolts I can offer as trade.
>>222920641We don't need to explain everything. Like that augment arc in ENT that explains smooth Klingons.
>>222915717DS9 may not be Trek, but it is very much /trek/.
>>222920641>the magic particle that does whateverI take "What is theoretical physics in Science Fiction" for 200 AlexThey found a way to explain replicators with actual scientific research, yet this is a common criticism. Just as with the botched judges quote, the blame is on the retarded viewers not the actual script.
>>222917750It's probably this guy who was only hired because Rick Berman likes jazzHis grandpa was incredibly based though to be fair and is an all-time great for surehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGZuKSYKVSo
>>222920774He's definitely in the same arena as Siddig and Crosby. Siddig was a pretty crummy actor at first, Crosby never got better and Montgomery never got a chance to improve. I'd say he got the shorter end of the stick so I'd rank Siddig as the biggest nepo among the three, Montgomery as the second biggest and Crosby as the third simply because she also suffered a lot by being disowned by Bing-a-ling.

>>222917800>>222918258Siddig is descended from the Mahdi who defeated the British in the Siege of Khartoum; Auberjonois was also descended from Napoleon's younger sister. It's a shame the show never gave them much to do together.
You got a tribble on your hat.
>that time you ran two discords
>>222922607And how did that go? All it did was tear /trek/ apart.
>>222922607Damn, what happened to Dasha and Anna?
>>222922454o_o I want to deny these accusations, but what I'm being accused of is insane schitzo babble that I do not comprehend
>>222910875He's the best captain

>>222922607My god, Mullen really is a tiny fucking man. He's also lost all of his muscle, pretty funny.>>222922650The discord days honestly weren't even close to as bad as the last 3-4 years. You might not like hearing this but it's true.Honestly, schizos left on the outside just became obsessed with the discords and wouldn't shut the fuck up about them even though quite literally nothing ever happened on them, nothing was ever coordinated, and it was mostly just BF and VF trying to out-attention-whore each other.
>>222911235He's the best captain. A man of culture compared to the man of adventure that was Kirk and the man of principal that was Picard.
>>222922686>doesn't deny KWABKWAB
>>222922886Discord wars started when some faggot would get mad at BF or VF and start spamming /trek/ 24/7 to get back at them

>>222922454
>>222923195Cause it looks like shit and is being advertised with such phrases as "from the producers of", which tells you without a doubt that it's shit.

>>222923351It sounds like it could be pretty good. I might watch it when I finish Brisco Country Jr.
>androgenous race>nearly all clearly womenI guess that one in the back left is a dude but really, what were they thinking, this episode should've been aborted in preproduction like an intersex baby
Sisko is one of the good ones.
JUST SIT NORMALLY
>>222924815He is asserting his gender superiority with his extensive manspread technique
>>222924815TBF Frakes had a back injury with a uniform that put pressure on the back. If Starfleet HR existed he'd probably need a letter from Dr. Crusher allowing him to sit like that.
>>222925096Was it in the script that he had to mount every chair he sits on from behind?

>>222924727The haircuts were a mistake. They make them look too much like Romulans. If anything they should have been bald. Sure you already have the Deltans but only real Trek nerds could call that.

>>222925726Back in the old days, when a woman having to cut her hair was seen as something worse than deathhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHgdGTQiVbc

>>222920641They’re just mad that classic Trek could get away with silly nonsense episodes. While SNW feels like rejected Futurama plots.
>>222926520A lot of nutrekkies come off as bitter and jealous
quark deserved to be nagus. he was a competent businessman and accomplished diplomat and he softened on the womens rights nonsense, he even became a woman to to help the zek retain power. rom should not have been released until after his execution.
Animated series Star Trek: Scouts will debut its second season on YouTube on the 8th
>>222926570he would not have been a good nagus because he has that same kind of inferiority complex bullshit that Worf has that he's not a "real" Ferengi and everything he does is based on insecurity and self loathing so he's actually easily manipulated
>>222926702I tihnk quark got enough development through the show where he could have grown enough to prevent that.It's already kind of weird in the finale that he's having a ferenghi conservative tantrum again and ignoring all the other quark episodes about that
>>222926740I akshually disagree with you because at the end of the show where it looks like he actually is gonna be the next nagus, he is way more distraught over the changes than Brunt who is explaining them to him and Brunt is more of a "real" Ferengi than Quark. it just goes to show than even when he's in power his priority is adhering to the old ideals that he felt he could never live up to than looking ahead
Sorry for that whack -a-mole thingie I did last night
>>222924727Yeah, I dunno. If they had a mix of men and women (the one in the back isn't a man, I think it's just an actually androgynous woman) it would be too obvious they aren't REALLY androgynous...Anyway, I don't even know what this was supposed to be a metaphor for in the 80s. Whole concept fails. Like the abortion episode with the space irish that everyone hates, but I like for the lady with the sweater puppies.
>>222927640its about gays and gay coversion therapy. its a little more subtle than this but basically shes a hetero woman trapped in a homosex society. easier for straights to identify with her.
>>222927809Didn't Frakes want there to be a gay kiss in that one but Paramount/Berman said no? I guess only hot women could lock lips in the 1990s.
>>222928054i heard he wanted a man to plan the role to make it more queer but they shut that down.
>>222926570>This is between me and Odo, FUCK OFF!

>>222923195It's Michael Piller's wrstern series that he did during the start of Voyager. That's why he wasn't as involved in the show as in DS9.

>>222928961youre being too literal. the point it ds9 has too much romance. everyone is pairing off.but also leeta confesses to being interested in rom in the risa episode and then they flirt for a few episodes before the zimmerman episode 9 eps later. its a whole arc and it doesnt need to happen at all.

>>222929118I hate workplace shows that end with everyone happily pairing up with each other. It’s corporate propaganda that you’ll find your soulmate at work. And then you get an actual job and everyone barely tolerates each other for 40 hours.

>>222931687i never said i liked it on tng.
>>222931687nta but tng barely ever featured those things but in ds9 it's a constant thing and at one point even eats up most of a season (7).
Ezri Dax banging both Worf and Bashir in the same season was a little much, but in the context of a confused symbiote seeking closure with her klingon ex-husband and then catching Bashir on the rebound wasn't that odd.All together it's more than a standard office full of random banging and pairing off, but it's also a military force at war in an exotic, prestigious setting
Ezri should've gotten with Quark. Would've even fit that she's much shorter than Jadzia.
Odo episodes are either harrumph it's a mystery or harrumph i'm an incel
>>222932064Ezri???
I just learned about The Burn and I think it's the dumbest idea NuTrek has ever pushed. Not because of the subspace tantrum, but the concept of creating a future where the Federation no longer exists.Everybody these days says "the only way to save Star Trek is to kill it", and this is the only thing that has had me agree, because it really feels like there's no coming back from it, even if Discovery & Academy both get decanonized in their entirety.
>>222932150>I just learned about The Burn and I think it's the dumbest idea NuTrek has ever pushed. Not because of the subspace tantrum, but the concept of creating a future where the Federation no longer exists.The Burn was taken from the concept for a scrapped 2006 animated Trek called Final Frontiers, in which in a renewed Romulan/Federation war used Omega particle mines as a weapon and tore up subspace. This was a perfectly acceptable way to make warp travel constrained.Sad kelpien throwing a tantrum was retarded.
>“I would say it's really kind of a look at the institution of Starfleet and any institution as a whole that has existed for a long time and what that does,” Daley tells Inverse. “ I think the portrayal of Starfleet and the people that work within it have always been generally idealized versions of what the future could be. And while this [script] isn’t a cynical or nihilistic take on it, I think it does acknowledge that there are some bad apples in every institution that can have a strong voice and can really make an impact on that institution and everything it stands for.”>“Two movies we cite as comps for what we’re hoping to do are Training Day and Crimson Tide,” Goldstein tells Inverse. “It takes place almost in real time, and it just is a whole other look at what a Star Trek movie could be without betraying the fundamentals of what it should be,” Daley adds.
you dildos in particular and everyone else in general are going to have to let this idea of a 'canon' goit's just autism contrailsthese franchises are never going to stop shitting out material forevergiving a fuck if it all lines up is not sustainable
>>222932229I have no problem with constraining warp travel, my issue is that the subspace tantrum instantly detonates all dilithium in the galaxy, immediately destroying the Federation itself. Reading the synopsis for Final Frontier on Memorybase-Alpha, it's clear that the intent was for the two-halves of the Federation to operate autonomously of eachother and attempt to rebuild in the wake of war. Post-Burn Federation does not exist, by Kurtzman's design, and that's what's REALLY retarded.
>>222932290>autism contrailsThis is the new name of my band.
>>222932323In this we are in perfect agreement. I really wish the omega mine approach was what they used.
>>222932338No, you're still not understanding.If Kurtzman had opted for an intelligent way to destroy the Federation, it would still be destroying the Federation, and that is the thing I think is the most retarded decision to make for a franchise entirely about Starfleet and their journeys.And let's be real, even if Kurtzman had decided to use the Omega Mine idea, it would be something equally retarded, like the Romulans hacking the default Replicator recipebook to only shit out Omega particles.
>>222932325hmm yes hey kill yourself, waterhead
>>222932393stomp clap get fucked
>>222932375>If Kurtzman had opted for an intelligent way to destroy the Federation, it would still be destroying the Federation, and that is the thing I think is the most retarded decision to make for a franchise entirely about Starfleet and their journeys.If Kurtzman just used the premise from Final Frontiers it would have been fine. He was hands off with LOW and PRO. Franky I'm surprised Fuller didn't use it.
>>222932441Yes, obviously, if he had used a premise where the Federation weren't bombed out of existence, it would've been fine.Is Prodigy any good? I thought it was skewed towards a younger demographic so I haven't looked into it, but I've recently been coming around on Lower Decks so I'm open to others' opinions on it.
>>222932471Also I know how that sentence structure sounds, since I have bad grammar, but I'm aware LD isn't for a younger demographic.
>>222932471>Is Prodigy any good? I thought it was skewed towards a younger demographic so I haven't looked into it,It is an interesting sequel to VOY and oddly prequel to PIC. It has heart. I would put it in the same category as TAS, where it's clearly aimed young but writes at a higher developmental level, almost as a "stretch goal" to get kids to think more critically, and so it is acceptable to adults akin to a TAS rewatch.The animation is hot buttered dog ass though.
>>222932507>The animation is hot buttered dog ass though.Oh damn, is it worse than that french shitshow Miraculous Ladybug? That's gotta be the most recent poorly animated show I've ever had the displeasure of catching a glimpse of. Like, I don't care how bad an artstyle is, but if it's choppy, poorly choreographed, or has consistently bad lip-syncing it becomes unwatchable no matter how good the writing might potentially be.Then again, I do like the Delta Quadrant...
>>222915923sorry your parents didn't show you affection
>bf posts>sperg starts spamming fake nutrek engagement
>>222932866I don't come into this general that often, me posting about The Burn right after a tripfag I don't even recognize is coincidental. I'd hardly consider my post-rate spamming, and there's nothing fake about how stupid I think Picard or Discovery are.
>>222912895In-universe he would be the captain I'd prefer to serve under. Thinking about it some more, I think it subconsciously has something to do with the other captains being childless.
>sisko is the only captain with a wife(s) and kid(s)>sisko is the only other starfleet officer besides o'brien to be married with childrens-shit...
>>222933556I thought Picard had a failson. Or maybe that was just a scam.
Can I be a true Trekkie if the only content I enjoyed was TNG and their movies? The old stuff was okay, but it never really resonated with me, and the new and newer stuff is pure cancer. DS9 was probably the closest to reeling me in, but I still lost interest. I can rewatch TNG episodes whenev tho as they're max comfy.
>>222932290>canon>not sustainableLiterally all it would take is for them to keep the timeline moving forwards rather than constantly going going back on themselves and to stop treading in such well established waters. The franchise's canon supposedly becoming increasingly rigid and difficult to navigate isn't what led them to redesign the Discovery Klingons into something completely unrecognisable when they'd had a well-established, iconic look that even normies know for almost FORTY YEARS.Star Trek's problem is that it's run by retard narcissists with an inferiority complex. They know they're incapable of producing anything even nearly as good as what came before them, but they're desperate to leave their mark on the franchise. It's why everything looks different, it's why the star of the show was something as unfathomably contrived as Spock's never before mentioned adopted human sister who's a black Mary Sue with a man's name. All their reasoning for straying so far from canon is just pathetic ad hoc excuses for their terrible showrunning/writing ability.
>>222933791nah you sound kinda like a normie ngl
>>222933868damn that sucks man. thanks for being honest.
>>222933863 (me)>The franchise's canon supposedly becoming increasingly rigid and difficult to navigate isn't what led them to redesign the Discovery KlingonsI guess I should add that alongside their insatiable desire to vandalise Star Trek, my pet theory is that they were feeling really icky about Klingon makeup resembling blackface. The new makeup being a full-head prosthetic with more alien purplish black colouring rather than mostly brown facepaint gives them more distance from the accusation... the actors' ability to emote or speak clearly be damned!
>>222933791You're not a true trekker yet but you may still become one in the futre. When I was younger I was basically like you (except I've always hated the tng movies) and eventually I realized how great the rest of actual star trek was. Give it time and then jump in again.
>>222933791Your trekkie status depends entirely if you can stomach voyager enough for a full watch through once
>>222934196Voyager is the only one I have yet to try. This chick at work has been trying to get me to watch cuz she says it's her fav, but she's kinda wonky and I doubt I'd like what she likes.
>>222934213Women have a real bias towards Voyager, I don't know if it's as basic as just being due to the female captain or if there's something more to it

>>222934611He says it correctly. I have a feeling you don't know how to.
>>222934658FU-tuh-naw-reeI think it's his accent, mostly. Or the novelty of hearing it spoken when one seldom does.

I mean besides how they never looked like they even really had any sort of blade to them on the show to me, and I doubt that one is much sharper, but I figure its 4-pronged design would be a hindrance to any real attempt at amputating any bodypart, it's too likely to get stuck in the flesh or catch on another part of the body to make such a big and clean cut
