I forgot Worf doesn't get promoted to Lieutenant Commander until Generations. How is there water in the holodeck? Is it simulated with force fields? How do you get wet from those?

Seriously though the holodeck technology would never become popular until it has a self-cleaning feature like modern ovens. A mop isn't going to prevent you from contracting Mourn's space AIDS.

Seriously, the transporters just don’t get used enough. Some shape shifting sasquatch is beating up worf and tells him she’s much more powerful than he is? “Worf to O’Brien, beam this bitch into space.” Some old but young lady who is the last of her clan on a quest for vengeance is about to murder a dude with a microbe? What does Riker do? Oh yeah, beams down to kill her instead of beaming her straight to the brig. Way to be a murderer, Riker.

Some shape shifting sasquatch is beating up worf and tells him she’s much more powerful than he is? “Worf to O’Brien, beam this bitch into space.” People say, "but then that would ruin the story" but I always thought that it was lazy writing. Whenever they have to beam into a hostile situation (where there isn't a techno-babble excuse why they can beam in but the transporters can't do anything else) they could just beam every phaser/gun/knife/spear within a 5km radius of the team away. Hell, you've just disabled an enemy ship's shields? Beam a torpedo into their warp core, beam a poison gas into their ship, beam a dice-sized piece of every crew-members brain out of their skull. Someone just cut a hole in your hull? Beam a chunk of an ingot in your cargo bay into a new panel that perfectly repairs the hole that was left in your hull. torpedo incoming? Beam a solid object in its path. Continue to beam material onto your hull, like ablative armour during a battle. Then again this is the same show(s) where people manually target enemy ships and fire three torpedoes a minute instead of having computers do in in 1/1000th the time, and have 50 torpedoes hit the exact same spot of the target at the exact same instant.

I’m so glad that they don’t have teleporters in Orville. Well that one race of mega advanced aliens from one of the first episodes has it but that’s it.

Showing any human being spending even a microsecond outside of a holodeck is the most unrealistic part of Trek.

They used the transporter for crew once in the first series, and that's ok, I'll give em one 'emergency transport!' Deus Ex. But by S3 it wasn't irregular, and what really peeved me was the photon torpedoes - Kirk clearly says the Romulan-Earth war was fought with atomic weapons, and there was zero actual change in having photon torpedoes other than 1)"ohmigawd future-trek reference! this is The Moment'" (and was anyone actually emotionally attached to the photon bit of photon torpedoes?), and 2) "it goes boom bigger" which can always happen without going back on established stuff

He had a point though, Bashir was pretty naive. Sure the one guy in charge was reasonable, but all his underlings were drug addicts going through withdrawal. They were on the verge of mutiny when OBrian forced Bashir to leave.

To get a sci fi gimli fix, I recommend Sliders for the actor, Farscape for the character My favourite was when Orlando Bloom had already been cast in long-running Middle England drivel, Midomer Murders. He kept his contractual obligation rather than bailing for Holywood Megabux at first opportunity,and they slipped in a subtle reference by naming the house his character lived in out of Tolkien, which the detectives remarked wryly upon before ringing his doorbell simplefish fucked around with this message at 14:28 on Dec 3, 2018 |
