I wonder how often Suits tell Kurtzman to do a crossover because fans love Marvel and he had to explain that every Trek show is in a different time period.

When are we getting a Trek show in the "touring band with special powers" genre

I know this is the TV IV a thread but it had the posts about TWoK in theaters. (Thanks for which, BTW; fun seeing the movie, especially the few deleted scenes, even the one of the Enterprise and the Reliant hanging still in space around the Regula moon like a MST3K 'special' effect. Got to go with my daughter, who had seen it many years ago as a preteen, and now recognized the pop culture references/homages in the movie. I also made my wife promise after the movie that if she survives me, whoever delivers my eulogy must include the "his soul was the most *herk* human" line.) Does anyone know about plans to release the other movies through Fathom events or the like into theaters for limited runs? I haven't seen my favorite (VI, which edges out II IMO on genre points) in ages, never in the theater, and would kill for a big screen version of Christopher Plummer in his Klingon makeup whirling around in his captain's chair quoting Shakespeare. Best part of all would be that if it followed the same plan as TWoK it would have the cut parts with Major West and the missing plot points.

We're getting a crossover with Lower Decks in season 2 of Strange New Worlds. The actors who play Mariner and Boimler on LWD are playing them in live action on SNW. So probably a wacky time travel story or something.

 Data and Geordi were crazy for this one. They set it on a couple of crates in engineering with no safety equipment and turned it on a MW continuous discharge. Enough that if someone walked through the beam it would explode their torso.

You know in retrospect it's crazy how many times they showed a Nebula class bridge that wasn't just the Enterprise bridge. They're obviously the same design from the outside. Yet they keep redressing random rooms as bridges. Just take the plaque off the wall and shoot on the bridge set!

One thing I appreciated about rewatching TWOK in the theater was the lighting on the redressed bridge set for Enterprise and Reliant. The choice to show the "good" ship shaded in the dark, even when they weren't at Red Alert or battle damaged vs the "bad" Reliant bridge of Khan being brightly lit was an interesting one. You would have thought they'd have done the opposite. I also did notice that in the first attack Reliant has angry red lights front and center.  I was also thinking about the Ceti Alpha show. In the (as always) uncanon novels about Khan, they had backstory that while on CA V after the disaster, they moved their cargo pods over natural caves where they lived and got water (plus that was where they left the Reliant crew). Makes more sense than imagining them living 15 years in a couple box trailers. Also and perhaps more important, over the years they had kids who grew up fast due to superior genetics, and all the original gen of Supermen besides Khan died. This explains why all the rest of his crew looked like kids, why the only named crewman of the Botany Bay in the show and movie (besides Khan), Joachim, looks so different. It also made for a great unsaid parallel--his crew was about the same age as the cadets in Enterprise. Astroman fucked around with this message at 01:44 on Sep 12, 2022 |

I don't know what it is, but that set always looked so small on TNG. Maybe it was because they had to cram everybody closer together to frame for 4:3?

When was the last time the TMP bridge was used on screen? I'll accept answers for its use as a complete set and for random bits that appeared on camera.

Pegasus I can understand but you'd think they'd use the Galaxy bridge for the Nebulas since they're sister ships of the same generation with the same bridge module on the outside. Maybe swap out the tactical horseshoe for a slightly less cool looking rail or something if the set allowed. At least by Voyager they had a decent second-ship bridge set up they could tweak and reuse for the Nova and Prometheus, with the nice sunken helm and a full ring of wall LCARS stations.

My favorite bridge redresses are when you see alternate timeline/future versions of the D and the bridge just has random boxes glued to the walls that don't even colour match the existing set.

And getting to that front side seat when someone's sitting in the back side seat is a bit of a challenge. (Or even when someone isn't sitting there). But that's more that they would've needed to widen the bridge to do it properly with space for all that and they couldn't rebuild it that much. They could've tucked the side stations in a bit more so the seat was a bit inside the cubby as well, maybe. MikeJF fucked around with this message at 12:56 on Sep 12, 2022 |
