Enterprise and DS9 both just seem to not exist to the studios beyond a couple quick references and a cameo here or there it’s infuriating

Current timeline origin story has to follow the Time Cops. They're the ones who keep the timeline in check, and I bet they're not all that innocent about changing the timeline for the results they want vs. what was actually supposed to be.

He's talked about how the roles he would get auditioned for quite dramatically changed after September 11. Before that, he'd get called up largely as a british man. After that, all arabic.

Like he found an ancient copy of The Game and really got into it. the fact that he mostly fails at picking up women is a really good send up of the star trek ladies man trope, and he grows as a character from the experience as is Nurse Chapel in SNW who is the one picking up on and dumping dudes in SNW. It’s a fun reversal

PIC certainly doesn't build on the 90s look. The insides of ships are dark, reflective, uncomfortable angular spaces and the exterior designs are weirdass takes on movie era designs. And it definitely doesn't build on the 90s tone.

Season 1 wants to be a sequel to Nemesis, Season 2 wants to be a sequel to First Contact, and Season 3 wants to be a sequel to TNG as a whole, and all of them completely misunderstand their self-given assignments because no one involved from Chabon to Matalas on down understood their chosen source material.

Previous Star Treks portrayed humans (from Earth at least) to be enlightened bubbly root beer lovers but in the Picard show everyone acts like an rear end in a top hat from the year 2020. Just doesn't feel like a Star Trek. A double dumbass on the writers, I say.

The only logical explanation for Picard is that we are in an Argrathi mind prison, being punished for a crime we're somehow unaware of.

Did they at some point just stop painting Leonard Nemoy green after realizing it wasn’t showing up on TVs in the 60s anyway? He doesn’t look green in the movies to me

I read that the producers originally wanted to paint Data very deep blue, but it was an absolute maintenance nightmare with his original red uniform. (or other way around, don't remember anymore) Then they switched him to gold-yellow, and small flakes getting loose into mustard yellow-colored uniform wasn't that much of an issue.

Spock looks jaundiced more than green, but it's supposed to be because Vulcan blood is green so if they go flush it wouldn't be pinkGutcruncher posted:But did they give up on that for the movies? He never looks green to me in those It's WAY more subtle in the movies but it's there in Star Trek 4 - and Star Trek 3 teenager Spock seems greenish Edit: you can see it here in this screen cap with busted levels especially side by side with Kirk Compared with them out of makeup as older men Squiggle fucked around with this message at 20:06 on Mar 28, 2024 |

the sparing use of Kirk in SNW has been good so far it’s the idea of Kirk as a character instead of captain charisma since that role is filled by Pike too much Kirk on SNW could be problematic and the portrayal of “here are some personality traits of that character we know will be important some day” has been great
