Leonard Nimoy: Melllvar, you have to respect your actors. When I directed Star Trek IV, I got a magnificent performance out of Bill because I respected him so much. William Shatner: And when I directed Star Trek V, I got a magnificent performance out of me, because I respected me so much!

FuturePastNow posted:Enterprise actually has a sequel to that episode that's even better. And probably one of the best episodes of Enterprise. IIRC it's actually a prequel to that episode - but a sequel to "The Tholian Web." Pwnstar posted:When it came up he said it was a "long story." I'm choosing to believe he somehow really knocked her up through mad science because that's funnier. I always assumed there was an adoption or surrogacy involved, and he pretended to be disappointed to learn that he was sterile. Or maybe being a scuzzball with super-advanced medical knowledge, he convinced his wife that it was HER fault. Eh, maybe not; I think that may be my favorite Voyager episode, don't want to taint its memory.

Yes they did, and also appeared on TNG. But they were created in order to have a "rebel faction" to cause "tension" on the next series.

Geordi does use the expression "beaucoup trouble" at one point, which made me think he was from Louisiana. But of course Sisko is the one canonically fron Louisiana, so

Payndz posted:Because it's funnier. (And if the B/W filter was just over people's eyes, we the audience should still have seen them in colour. Unless the computer thought of that and put a filter over the TV camera too. But then the Doctor wouldn't have been in colour when he first came in, and aaabueblnwgffgwjwk) The holodeck probably has some device that can literally desaturate the light inside it.

CPColin posted:It's an anti-time anomaly, so it should have been visible the first time they went to the Deveron System in the future. Also, Data says three inverse tachyon beams are all converging and they appear to have been fired from the same ship, but Pasteur fired one of them. More to the point, the anti-time anomaly shouldn't have appeared later on, even if they did do something to create it.

TBQH there is nothing more honorable than taking a small ship, crewed by a band of warriors bonded by their loyalty to their commander, up against all odds fighting the most fearsome foe the Empire has ever known. If I were a Klingon general, I would do everything I could to hold on to that command.

Death Zebra posted:The other thing I find strange is when he later explains that he was going to throw the fight against the last Jem'hadar in By Inferno's Light because he was growing weary of battle but isn't constant battle the Klingon afterlife? That's why Martok didn't commit suicide after being captured, for sure. I don't think Worf was going to throw the fight, though, he was just really beat up (though not in spirit, thanks to his Klingon mind-meld with Martok) and was going to lose.

FlamingLiberal posted:Still ridiculous that they decide to launch their test weapon on the actual target instead of, you know, something closer and one that won't give away their plans. Even worse, we find out later that they were already doing tests of the weapon on moons. You can't seriously be blaming them for blowing up Florida the first chance they got.

Starfleet is actually supposed to be a combination of the NOAA, the USPHS, NASA, and the USCG. They wear uniforms and have ranks and various weapons but aren't focused on warfighting as their primary mission. I mean, you KNOW what their mission is, they state it during the credits every episode and in several films.

Angry Salami posted:I always thought it was a shame they had her being dead be a last-minute twist. I think you could get a cool story out of the crew finding out halfway through she was already dead, and debating whether to tell her. As it is, it feels tacked-on. Brilliant idea. Maybe someone from the Discover writers' room is trolling this thread for ideas and will be able to use this one in the event the show makes it past season 1.

Arglebargle III posted:Yeah it's weird how much trek trivia shows up in discovery while the core curriculum isn't covered.  No but seriously, my wife and I liked the last one a lot. There's some serious science geeking-out (including an F-bomb!!!!), a tough moral question (they eventually come around to the right answer) , and some decent action. Plus, Rainn Wilson as Mudd was solid - I hope by his next appearance he's shaved the beard and rocks that massive 'stache.
