Met posted:I can't find any information that says the new TV series will take place in the JJTrek universe. In fact, several sources say it will be completely unrelated to the latest movie at least. I sort of want it to happen during the WOK-STVI timeline as the uniforms are cool and the ships look awesome. Enterprise A is best Enterprise!

There is no way that this will happen in 2016 I don't think unless they really just want to pander to nerds (of which I include myself) no, no...they'll try to make it hip and cool and all that for a broader market appeal or whatever dumb marketing logic applies

insurrection: "My chief engineer literally re-grew his optic nerves and eyeballs, why can't the Son'a just park in orbit (let alone maybe settle on the whole other side of the planet (what the hell stopped them from doing this decades ago???)) and reap the benefits of this space magic?" "uhhhhh because reasons. shut up, go "geordi, we need more impulse speeds!" "but dude we'll totally blow the intake manifolds (??????????)" "just do it!!" *nothing bad happens, the "intake manifolds" are never mentioned again* "sir, two Son'a starships are attacking us. shall we engage them with our high-energy particle beams and antimatter-warhead missiles?" "nah, that's boring/too expensive/too similar to Wrath of Khan. let's just lay a big space fart and detonate it in their faces." "hey, salieri, since we're already planning on destroying a federation starship to eliminate the witnesses, do we really need to bother with hunting them down on the planet?" "yes. please continue to waste time and resources on this endeavor so i can gloat over them, despite the fact that i was previously pushing to totally disregard their lives and just let them burn to death on the planet following our super-technobullshit plan." "yo admiral isn't it kind of a colossal waste to do a one-time finite extraction of the magical fountain-of-youth particles when we ought to be building orbital resorts that can be used indefinitely? especially when doing it that way would negate any need to work with these loving assholes or interfere with the hippie white people commune on the surface?" "uhhhhhhhhhhhh" why are all the baku so incredibly white why is it so hard for the son'a to loving find and deal with a few thousand people on foot? send some shuttles down and hose them down with phasers on stun, or knockout gas, or even holy poo poo just land like a few dozen dudes who can overwhelm a few starfleet dudes and dudettes? why is michael piller writing this folksy "well gee when you build machines to do work you diminish yourself in the process" bullshit in a loving STAR TREK why is piller writing in a small child for Data to intimidate??

The best part about the Baku were that they fixed Data or something, so they had technology they were just huge self righteous hypocrites about when to actually use it. Also Picard's boner was revived by the planet, so it could be the new Risa. The Sona really missed out on a nice business opportunity.

Wasn't that spirit guide episode the one where they revealed they actually do have cameras all over the ship, so that they could look at Chakotays spirit diorama or whatever? A completely useful thing that would have solved maybe half of all problems that was never mentioned before or since. "Captain, Commander Riker Isn't answering his Comms" "Well take a 5-10 minute trip over there and knock on his door" ..... "SECURITY TO COMMANDER RIKERS QUARTERS, SOME SHITS IN RIKERS QUARTERS" "Sure give us like 5 minutes"

That was a stupid episode, ancient Bajoran's could surf to Cardassia with solar winds. Might as well say we can reach Vulcan from Starfleet HQ with a loving ladder.

Never understood the end. Why would Gul Dukat celebrate any Bajoran achievement. A competent Cardassian officer would taken the opportunity to make Sisko disappear.

And surely Cardassia would have destroyed the ruins or evidence they 'just discovered' of their slave race for the last century was actually superior then they were at one time. They would have went Taliban/ISIS on it, and wiped it from history instantly.

I'm watching the DS9 episodes where Sisko, Dax and Bashir get beamed back to the 21st century for the riots or whatever. I remember thinking the first time I saw this "LOL, there's no way any of this would happen by 2024, things are going so great!" Now I'm like "Unemployment ghettos and labor riots is a really optimistic portrayal of the US in eight years."

Ok the episode where Tuvok is stranded on that moon with the children-that-are-actually-old-and-there-to-die is kinda cute That episode is immediately followed by the one where they find people trapped in a simulation by a clown who is the personification of their fear or whatever and he turns Kim into an old man and then a baby and then scares the crap out of him with like traumatic childhood experiences Pretty good Then it's followed by the Tuvix episode I think this is the best streak Voyager has achieved yet; I have actually been entertained for 3 episodes straight

Libertarians advocate their special retard communes where the market decides everything, which would actually turn out like sanctuary districts. People with fedoras beating other people to death for their bread cards. Not to be confused with conservatives that think that if people aren't doing well that it's because they just don't want it hard enough

Someone proposed a similar thing for LA just months after that episode aired IIRC Walter Koenig was nice, but he seemed sad. I wonder if it has more to do with his dead son or the prospect of signing 8x10s for sweaty nerds for the rest of his years.

Tim Russ pops up as a Vulcan in the second mirror universe episode of DS9, so I went to see if they actually intended for that to be Tuvok and...quote:Tuvok was played by actor Tim Russ. Russ also played the mirror universe Tuvok in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Through the Looking Glass", as well as several other roles in Star Trek. Russ recalled, "Most of my friends told me I didn't have to stretch very much because I'm like that character in real life." Garrett Wang remembered that when he first met Russ, he joked that Tuvok was one letter away from resembling the name Tupac, to which he responded, "Rap music is the reason for the fall of Western civilization." I'm not sure what's funnier... Tim Russ being an emotionless sperg or Garrett Wang trying to connect with him over rap.
