How could you possibly pass up having Chekov and Sulu portrayed by Fozzie and Rowlf?

I vote Spock as Leonard Nimoy. He was bizarre enough in that one anyway, given everything. Have Big Bird and the La Choy dragon on the Federation council.

^ That's perfect! If Kermit is going to be Kirk, then by Muppet logic shouldn't Piggy be Gillian? That would be perfect during the "not the hell your whales" scene.

Also if you want to keep the romantic tension then piggy as Kirk and Kermit as Spock.

Sash! posted:I am remember Rolf playing Worf in a Muppet Babies episode Yes, and the right movie to muppetize is First Contact. Picard remains human, Rolf is Worf, Scooter is Geordi, Data is Kermit, Zefram Cochrane is Gonzo, etc. The Borg are Pigs in Space and teh Queen is Miss Piggy. Borg mechanical parts are muppet pig parts. Data/Kermit gets some pig skin in the borg/pigified Main Engineering since "it's not easy being green" etc.

Now I'm imagining a TNG where Worf is the only non-muppet character. Dorn wouldn't even have to alter his performance.

What sci-fi ship is more iconic than the Enterprise D? If not that then it has to be Star Wars... the Falcon, an X-Wing, the Death Star?

In terms of the general public, I think the Connie is more iconic than the D.

Hey, whoever it was who said Orville season 3 starts using the full hour effectively after the first few episodes instead of just padding 44 minute scripts: thank you, you're correct. Also, lots of good callbacks not for the sake of nostalgia but continuing plotlines in a living universe (except for someone's reappearance in the final episode). I think season 3 is on the whole better than 2 -- Charlie as a character really brought some needed friction, and there's less goofiness (in this, 3 is to 2 as 2 was to 1) -- and I want season 4 more than I wanted season 3. Too bad that looks like a real longshot. My only real complaint (aside from the first few eps being thin for their runtime) was the direction seemed weaker this season, but I guess I was able to live with that. Maybe it was all the MacFarlane-helmed eps? I didn't stop and check in real-time when I noticed a weak hand behind the scenes.

It was a good move to resolve the Kalyon threat in the penultimate episode so that the finale gets to be classic Star Trek and end on an unambiguously optimistic and hopeful note.

Oh that's the first screenshot where I've realised what's inside the saucer. e: but yeah Iain Banks showed the way. The natural endgame of this technology that we are pretending is possible is that spaceships just look like nice cities on the inside because physical structure ceases to matter.

What the..how is everyone's mind not collectively exploding right now over https://roddenberry.x.io/ ? This is insane. You can walk around on ALL the bridges. This is the Captain's Chair CD-ROM from the 90's in turbo-overdrive. It looks like some kind of video streaming they are using, like Google Stadia?

I might have said this before: Voyager's bridge is weird. The TOS, TNG and DS9 (Defiant) bridges have a 'flow' to them, but Voyager's bridge has weird nooks and crannies that make it seem like the floor of a modernistic skyscraper. It's my least favorite design.

I can only find the Enterprise bridges, and pivot around from a single point. There's other ships and you can move around the bridge? How the hell do you navigate that site?

Turns out LCARS has extremely poor interface design. It's a super cool concept, but the entire thing is presented incredibly poorly and it kinda feels like they're shooting themselves in the foot by putting so much effort into it but barely letting us see anything. Why not let me zoom around freely? And is the outside of the ship really not a part of this? feedmyleg fucked around with this message at 02:24 on Apr 29, 2023 |
