Top 10 TNG episode for me and has one of the best “oh shit we really doin sci-fi” moments in TNG:
CRUSHER: Here’s a question you shouldn’t be able to answer. What is the nature of the universe? COMPUTER: The universe is a spheroid region seven hundred and five metres in diameter.
I always wonder how the guy playing Travis felt about the writers creating an alien that stereotypes all human beings as white.
I mean, they could have at least explored how the character Travis felt about it. Real missed opportunity.
Dad when someone insults Neelix
I tried to play Into The Breach after Netflix published it on iOS but they required me to have a Netflix account and sign in 🤢🤮
They only wanted to publish games to widen their user acquisition channel so this unfortunate outcome isn’t too surprising. Feel bad for the devs and artists.
Way back in 2014 playing outside Europe was mostly terrible and they still had the westernization mechanic I think x_x
By the time I was priced out of the DLC, every continent had a few interesting fully-fleshed-out nations to play.
For most of Star Trek’s history, the Prime timeline holds together no matter what happens to it.
I respectfully disagree.
James Kirk of the united earth space probe agency or whatevs sends his regards to the united federation of planets 🙃
Later in Disco we see… many anachronisms, which makes it hard to write of earlier inconsistencies as just errata.
My own conclusion is that star trek is like a jigsaw puzzle both with some pieces missing and some pieces from other puzzles entirely.
Edit: as a counter point, I would say that statement is true of other (smaller) franchises, like planet of the apes.
Harumphs intensify
Me watching twilight for the first time with my daughter and seeing this scene:
Trying to think of it in terms of the real world is senseless.
It’s can also be fun 😎
Since Picard 3 it’s canon that the transporter is a meat printer that relies on cached DNA to do shallow copies.
Hacking that cache was the big plot reveal of how the borg-changelings infiltrated starfleet.
ENT 04x07 The Forge might be the earliest human mindmeld and the recipient is brain damaged and comatosed:
SOVAL: He’s comatose, brain-damaged, and he’s human. A mind-meld is dangerous under the best of conditions, but under these…
Later
SOVAL: I don’t know if this has ever been attempted with a human before.
SOVAL: My mind to your mind. Our minds are one. Our thoughts are joined. Yes.
SOVAL: I see what you see. The embassy. I’m at my station. At your station. So many new people arriving for the summit. I don’t recognise them all, but some I know. A package. That’s all right. I don’t need to see it. Go right through. Who are you? Who?
Thanks fam, I’m gonna check it out. Love me some ENT 😎
Sokath my eyes uncovered
Shamelessly stolen from imgur. I too have no honor
Wish I could remember the DS9 episode where they are cloaked and hunting convoys; someone wonders “is this honourable?” and is answered to the effect “Honour is winning, duh”
ENT is a great beneficiary of picard shitting the bed for 3 seasons 😎
Such a good episode 😎
Now just what in the hell is that doing there?
Edit: not sure you can make out the blurry captain of the Orville here getting scolded on the Enterprise
Where now the horse and the rider?
I love that episode, it has Archer’s most boneheaded command decision of all time.
