So between Stamets' spores and Culber's hydrocarbons, that pair's mission essentially boils down to traveling the galaxy huffing whatever alien chemicals they can find

B'lana and that AI missile she created about to destroy an innocent world? Beam the Doc over, hand wave into the computer's machinary and beam back, less than a minute. The Year of Hell? Two minutes of the Doc doing his thing, and a year of him bragging about it.

Snow Cone Capone posted:So maybe like, the Borg ship was having their equivalent of a warp core breach, they needed an assload of power to contain it safely, and whatever the ship's warp core equivalent was blowing up is what broke time, which is why the Borg were so desperate they had to breach defenses instead of opening a dialogue like "oh hey it's us your mortal enemies but we really need your help, can we borrow the combined power of your fleet for a second" What if this and the Borg queen is Picard's mom

Eimi posted:The thing I don't get on reflection is how General Picard and President Hansen really reflect on Picard and Seven as characters. I can forgive the minor/new characters because we haven't had seven years worth of examination of who they are as people, but we have for Picard and Seven and I don't really see how their evil counterparts really reflect on them. I guess both evil Picard and normal Picard are isolated? If Picard's sin is that he became afraid of the unknown, General Picard is a xenophobic prick but he isn't afraid of the unknown, in fact he revels in going there and putting his boot on it. With Seven it's even more muddled, because we don't know Annika Hansen, especially if in this universe she was never assimilated at all. I could see an assimilated Seven saved by the Confederacy because she's human and becoming evil, because Seven already had a cold and ruthless streak from the Borg, but I don't think those would be things Annika had without that experience. Throughout TNG we see Picard being willing to stand by and avoid intering in situations he would personally feel confronted about. The reason he could not respond as his personal morality said is that he truly believed in Starfleet principles like the Prime Directive. Now imagine a Picard brought up in a xenophobic world where from childhood he is taught that humans are the superior species.

nine-gear crow posted:https://twitter.com/SeanTourangeau/status/1502354318938177541 I wonder if someone told him to make the alternate timeline Enterprise literally darker and edgier or was that an organic decision. Senor Tron posted:Throughout TNG we see Picard being willing to stand by and avoid intering in situations he would personally feel confronted about. The reason he could not respond as his personal morality said is that he truly believed in Starfleet principles like the Prime Directive. The interesting version of that is a "there but for the grace of God" situation where there's no Prime Directive and the Federation is a true Homo Sapiens Only club ruled more like modern-day America, with lofty goals in principle but in practice concerned with maintaining the power of #1 first and the self-justifying image of the moral vanguard second. Of course that would require nuance and depth and episodes full of thematically relevant content instead of turning the MU dial up to eleven, all that lameoid poo poo the olds are always nitpicking about...

Say what you will about the current productions, but I very much appreciate all these behind-the-scenes glimpses at the thought and effort that went in to visual designs. I also love that they have the geekiest people like Drexler working on these because those guys really get into what they're doing simply for the love of the franchise. And a paycheck for doing what you love seems pretty awesome.

And a paycheck for doing what you love seems pretty awesome. The contrast between the behind the scenes stuff this year compared to Season 1 is like night and day. This time you've got the whole production crew basically posting all of their work online after every episode airs, while in Season 1 our only access to things was Michael Chabon's Instagram feed where he'd write poo poo like "Vulcans wear sunglasses now, shut up" or the like. nine-gear crow fucked around with this message at 09:03 on Mar 13, 2022 |

Good episode of Discovery but I definitely threw it over to my second monitor with a "gently caress I hate this show" the two times the entertainment had to take a pause for "this is a technique I learned for dealing with stress!"

Has anyone jokingly asked the ship designers posting all these designs from Picard to reconcile them with Discovery's enormous miles-wide internal voids that the turbolift cars float through like TARDISes?

I think that what's wrong with Q is that General Picard and the Confederation found out a way to kill the Q Continuum in that timeline he created, so now he's all hosed up from being the last one.
