an actual society with ftl travel and 500 years more advanced would be so loving weird its just complete guessing at things we cant comprehend. people cant make predictions one year from now, much less 500. but heres my prediction the truth is, as soon as we get fusion energy, defeat aging, and perfect an integrated virtual world interface to your brain then we are never leaving this gay rock and well decay in hedonism until a gamma ray burst hits or something. this happens to all societies and thats why there are no spacefaring aliens, they are all playing alien everquest or whatever the gently caress they want

and yea if if somehow people werent full of implants and directly interfaced w/ the ship you still wouldnt ever need more than a dozen people on the ship, everything can be automatic. star trek is not to be seriously thought about as anything other than a half-thought out backdrop to stories of ethics and character the tech stuff is basically the craziest poo poo people could come up with 50s science fiction ideas

speaking of uniforms one of the biggest missed opportunities for voyager was the maquis rebels immediately wearing pressed and clean starfleet uniforms after a day on the ship you even have someone like traitor tom paris who they just scooped up from a federation gulag, part of his character could have been a "gently caress you mom im wearing whatever i want" i mean obv could have been done better than that but it would have been interesting. the maquis were an ideological, committed rebel group, its understandable that theyd team up once their ship blew up and they were thrown into the delta quadrant but being totes cool with tuvok being a traitor and getting along with the starfleet officers with little character conflict was boring as gently caress

like they had the possibility of a han solo-esque total dick character with tom paris who can shirk the captain and the rules because he actually is one of the best pilots in the federation and instead hes buddy friend to harry kim has a Wacky Holodeck 50s fantasy thing i mean what in the gently caress is wrong with rick berman

imo the only way you could have both a realistic and dramatic scifi series now would be to basically copy dune and make it so its illegal to make AI and most people are religious fanatics and shields cause nuclear explosions so everyone still uses guns and melee weapons, but there could still be weird hosed up genetic engineering thats an uncreative way of doing it, point is that youd have to have some kind of limits set in place that would prevent it from being the culture or whatever boring poo poo a post-singularity show would turn into

id watch an enterprise g series in the alternative history started by the last star trek movies where vulcan and romulus are both blown up to hell and the implications of this idk who could be captain in a new tng style series though im not hip enough on modern actors there would definitely have to be a cardassian crewman tho i think theres a lot of traction there

Mondian posted:Lol, TNG limped for 2 years before it got good, DS9 limped along for about 3, Voyager limped along for 7, and Enterprise was executed before it's pilot's opening theme even finished and then spent four years as a rotting corpse. right, the point being that if they were to make a new series it would have to be good right out of the gate cause the model that worked in the 80s and 90s aint going to work no more

Angela Christine posted:I like the part where Sisko realizes he can't be both an objective Starfleet captain and the Emissary to/from the Prophets, so he resigns his commision and becomes a full time diplomat. yeah part of that is sisko doesnt really happily go along with the whole emissary thing for awhile, hes reluctant and isnt gonna resign his commission over something hes not even sure he believes in (they are just wormhole aliens), and by the time he accepts his role the dominion war is starting and hes an experienced combat officer so

shadow puppet of a posted:It should have been a suicide run of tens of thousands of those solar sail ships streaming up from the planet on lovely rockets and flapping open to speed up and penetrate their shields with olde-worlde non-tech that the dominion never considered needing to be able to scan. Explosions of fertilizer bombs with wood and brass fittings shooting everywhere and loving up the works. Bayjies blowing themselves up by the score. Their gods doing nothing to help them but quietly watch. Then later with the massive losses to the industrial and agricultural labour base you'd have a reason to keep continual famines. tens of thousands? more like millions of heroic palestinian suicide bombers uh i mean bajorans
