Oh, fun fact, Alec Peters has a friend of his, Jonathan Lane (who runs Fan Film Factor), developing a Trek fan film called "Interlude," which is supposed to fill in the gaps between Prelude to Axanar and then the two Axanar shorts. So Peters still can't stop himself from trying to find ways to circumvent the fan film guidelines.

AlBorlantern Corps posted:But there was something wrong with her, she was trapped in a warp bubble Another one of those concepts that is picked up and dropped in a single episode, but back on Earth is probably the subject of hundreds of PHD's and philosophy papers. As portrayed in the episode, Crusher wasn't hallucinating, she literally was in a whole universe, filled with sentient living people who then died as that entire universe collapsed around them. Is this type of thing happening every time anyone goes to warp, and no-one had realised it until now because this was just the first time someone got trapped in there?

They are also, apparently, either exploiting the fact that their settlement with CBS requires arbitration instead of another lawsuit or they just grossly misunderstood the terms of the settlement. My money is on both.

It was a static warp shell, which we are to take as special, and she got trapped in it. The rest of it all related to her, so I doubt those were really "people" rather than projections of her own ideas of those people.

Considering their lawyer worked pro bono during the CBS / Paramount lawsuit, and was so incompetent that, in using the defense that Axanar was actually a mockumentary, she cited a Wikipedia entry for the definition (and promptly got smacked around, verbally, by the judge for it) ... I'll go with both.

I am proposing a fan theory: Picard's space Alzheimer's is actually brain damage caused by repeatedly doing things like living entire alien lifetimes, joining hive minds, going to heaven, and aging backwards.

Snow Cone Capone posted:In Discovery the technology is introduced and then never used, they specifically mention Pike ordering the Enterprise to go back to vid-screens because he hates the holograms It would have been better if besides the "security" issues, they said there was some slight uncanny valley effect or the wavelengths of the light from the holograms gave people headaches so even though they seemed to work fine, people stopped using them.

What would have been best is for Disco not to have holograms at all, then they wouldn't have to explain why nobody was using them in ToS.

I have been THINKING about it some more and showing the D is an interesting choice becaus surely, surely Picard captained the E for longer than the D. If they're smart they'll have a scene where Picard talks about a particular nostalgia for the Enterprise D, like it was a warmer, simpler time, nicer ship and all that.

w/r/t newest short trek: Once again Discovery tries to milk something cool from the original series by taking ownership of it. Tribbles were popular and fun just knowing they existed and when left unchecked would destroy entire ecosystems. Instead they are now in-canon as being invented by a single incompetent Starfleet dude and then the rest of a completely incompetent crew didn't know how to deal with the problem. Vent the ship? Scuttle the ship? When DS9 wanted to do a tribute with tribbles (heh) they didn't immediately say "HAY WE INVENTED THIS! THIS IS WHY KIRK HAS PROBLEMS WITH IT! GET IT?" Also if it is well known that tribbles were invented by a starfleet, why are they such a surprise to Kirk and crew? Is it yet another thing that Section 31 covers up? Or wait all of Starfleet adds to its ever widening memory hole that Discovery is now in as well? Plus, apparently Lorca had a now pre-modified Tribble on his desk for no reason? OR HEY MAYBE EDWARD WAS FROM THE MIRROR UNIVERSE TOO?!? (GIVE ME A JOB WRITING FOR YOU, CBS!) I know this is a lot of knit picking but jeez this franchise can't stop milking the past. Make up something loving new. Fun fact: how the Tribbles were portrayed in this episode was much better done in the legendary 70's sci-fi novel The Mote In God's Eye. There is a species of tiny Gremlins-like alien that will fix/tinker/make better any technology that they come into contact with. So another alien species keeps them around as tools, for their obvious benefits. But every so often they know to vent the ships to keep their population down, as they never stop breeding, and once they hit a critical mass the tiny guys will actually take over the ships to go to war with each other to fight for resources.
