So I got about 15 minutes into that. The acting is terrible, the production values are worse. I finally gave up after the caradassian stopped mid fight so he could exposition all about emo chick and how her dad is noonien soong and exactly how she feels about it. Is there some kind of time anomaly? Admiral Chekov has to be like 200 years old, and the Klingon ships look even older, while nu-Voyager is all fancy, and the USS Mary Sue has super advanced Quadium Phasers (Do not steal). Tim Russ why? I understand wanting to relive the glory days, but wouldn't you have been more comfortable in the convention circuit? FIND HIM AND KILL HIM

Honestly it's kinda hard to even look at that photo without my eyes rolling out of my head. 17 characters? Really? Is this low budget Enterprise of Thrones? Unless half of them are dead by the end of this pilot/movie someone has no idea how visual media works. Plus including poo poo like a nausicaan captain and a breen ...first officer? I guess. I don't know. I have no clue what role he serves because I don't speak dubstep. It was awkward when everyone had to repeat everything Thotgor said and make it sound natural at the end of DS9, but he had a minor role in maybe 5 episodes. drilldo squirt posted:That sounds terrible, why are you watching that? So we can poo poo on it on the internet, duh.

This is from a few pages ago, but I thought early TNG music was pretty bad. It was done in that older 70s/80s (go figure) style where it feels like the music is constantly screaming at you THIS IS A SAD SCENE! DO YOU HEAR THE MINOR CHORDS? DO YOU FEEL SAD ENOUGH YET? and ACTION IS HAPPENING NOW ISN'T IT EXCITING? and pretty much always trying to dictate how you feel about any given scene. Less overwhelming music is better, sorry.

It looks like the mass of a Romulan ship is about the same as the D, it's just hollow. The interior volume compared to the surface area means that ship is like 90% bulkheads and plating, and it's really a hilarious terrible design. Also Klingon cloaking devices are small enough to be carried by two Ferengi, and have their own power source and the ability to cloak themselves. Romulan executive shuttles, that are about the size of a runabout, feature cloaking devices, and I'm pretty sure they don't use a singularity for power. Jesus Christ I am a big loving nerd.

Kira's role was originally going to go to Ro, but Michelle Forbes didn't want the part, so they made up Kira instead. Ro was great, but Kira's arc and growth from S1 to S7 is my favorite thing about DS9, so it's okay.

The Klingons pulled their knives on him because he was mist, which they found offensive, and attempted to stab him. Then the klingons, who regularly fight each other to the death over untied shoelaces as a matter of honor, tried to rules lawyer an extradition because he was "surrounding them in a menacing way."

I don't know why people endlessly lose their poo poo about Tuvix. Through your inaction two sentient beings are unable to exist again, why does that mean absolutely nothing, while this dude in front of you does? What if Tuvok and Neelix were there begging for their lives instead, would it be different? Wasn't there an episode were moody klingon got split into two parts, and eventually got put back together again, was that cold blooded murder too?

The point is beings that existed will no longer exist, no matter what decision is made, why is the one I front of you more important than the two that are unable to plead for their life, even though they most certainly would if they could

Was it just a possibility? I thought it was a sure thing, and it basically boiled down to push A for Tuvix, push B for the other two.

Ambrose Burnside posted:i would posit that one scenario involves murder and the other involves declining to pursue a course of action that would create life. if youre drawing equivalence between the two, yeah, you kinda gotta grapple with the much larger problem of abortion/non-procreative sex/etc, or even "doing things with your life that are not calculated for pareto-optimal societal benefit" necessarily being Bad Moral Failings Those lives already existed though. What if Tuvix was never a thing. What if the transporter accident just made both characters poof out of existence. After a few days of research, you figure out what went wrong, and could beep boop technobabble them back. Do you have zero moral obligation to bring them back? I mean, it's not like they exist at the time you're making the decision, so who cares right?

You're being really obsessive over this poo poo, even my dumb rear end let the stupid Tuvix thing go eventually, rather than constantly poo poo up the thread with it. You could make the same grognard argument against a lot of the lighter bits of DS9, but... instead, how about you don't? Besides, it gave us Avery Brooks' best reaction face.

Making the Dominion fleet disappear was kinda bullshit. Everything everyone had done beforehand really didn't matter at all, because the gods finally decided to do a thing finally. They should have at least combined it with the next season story about the wormhole temporarily disappearing, so there was at least a tangible consequence to The Sisko pleading for help, instead of 'oh, spooky things will happen later.'

If it was post season 2, not only has she been a practicing doctor with at least one klingon patient, but she also spent a year as head of ...something. Whatever bullshit reason they had for not to be on the Enterprise for a year. Wasn't she head of starfleet medical or the medical academy or something? But then I also remember her just expressing more general surprise and admiration in klingon anatomy. Not like 'wow I've never seen this before isn't it amazing' but 'even though I'm familiar with it, I still think it's impressive this resilient system exists'

It was a great episode. O'Brien must, and did, suffer. Indiscretion was one of their better examples of fleshing out their villians, and it started us down the path to Klingon Pirate Dukat, whom we all know was the best Dukat.

BottledBodhisvata posted:But that begs the question of HOW the Founders could do all this stuff while remaining unseen. They have no visible technology--no space ships on their world, no buildings, no infrastructure. All of Dominion technology is the founder's technology technically, they just choose to hang out on a hidden rock in the eternal orgy sea. Even that planet had some technology on it though. Weyuon said the Dominion was 10,000 years old. Back in the beginning the changlings probably had to sully themselves with things like flying the ships or researching advanced gene slicing themselves, but they created the vorta and taught them to do it. After being maintained and incrementally upgraded by the vorta for so long, I doubt much of the original remains, but it's still all based on the founder's technology. Cloning and breeding and manufacturing facilities in the alpha quadrant are mentioned in the show, but I bet the gamma quadrant has some 40k type poo poo going on, with entire factory worlds and such. The Dominion is bigger than anything, except the borg collective next door. I was always disappointed there weren't more vorta though. I guess Weyuon like personally ran everything in the alpha quadrant, except for one or two extras, and Iggy Pop of course. Like when DS9 was occupied, there should have been several other Weyuons doing stuff in the background, all of them played by Jeffery Combs.
