  • I'm honestly impressed they successfully modeled it at that scale at all. That it actually looks pretty accurate is a bonus.

  • Nah, too vertical.

  • Add in Sokel for the next round. He was T'Lyn's former captain.

  • Also, there was just something about it that felt like a re-hash of an actual TNG episode, but I can’t pin down which one.

    "Homeward," the episode where Worf's adoptive brother evacuates a pre-warp species to a new planet because theirs is dying using the Enterprise's transporters and holodeck to make them think they're just traveling over land to a new place. It's almost exactly the plan for moving the Ba'ku.

  • On the end of Discovery

    Jump

  • That's not new. Turbolifts on the Discovery were depicted that way pre-refit, back in the TOS-ish era. It's a (mind-boggling) stylistic choice or something.

  • I am part of the group that thinks Insurrection was not just bad as a movie, but bad as a plot line all together. Literally everything about the Ba'ku-Son'a conflict falls apart at the slightest scrutiny.

    Jump

  • Season 3 has a ton of problems, but it's still a much better send off for the TNG crew than Nemesis was, and that's good enough for me.

    just drop it

  • I genuinely can't remember if this is a shot from LD. The episode where Boimler gets a girlfriend, maybe?

  • They're actually a republic. The Vedek Assembly has a lot of influence, but they're fully separate from the Provisional Government. And they only have that much influence because the vast majority of the population follows the Bajoran faith. Think of the Assembly like the Vatican - powerful when everyone cares (Pope during the Middle Ages), but virtually powerless when nobody does (Pope now).

  • Would have been genius

  • They were going through a few different movie scripts at the time. Interestingly, a rejected one was about a black hole that threatened to consume reality, not dissimilar to the prime timeline part of '09.

  • Early pre-production for the first movie started that year. Might have been to build hype.

  • I mostly chalk that kind of thing up to writers not having any idea what the Prime Directive actually is.

  • Odo flavored.

    Jump

  • You can combine it with nearly anything and it will work. I love chocolate, but I'm unconvinced that it would work as the ice cream flavor in a float, for example. Vanilla? So long as the other flavor is sweet, it will work.

  • The Department of Temporal Investigations is on the case

  • And a tricorder that they occasionally check while trying to look sneaky.

  • Riker had some double-standard problems, man...

    Jump

  • Just double checked. Looks like beta-canon from the novels. Interestingly, according to Memory Alpha, the first episode or two with Bajorans in TNG had all the male Bajorans wear the earring on the right and all the female Bajorans wear it on the left, but right ears for both sexes became standard pretty early on. The only other named character that wears it on the left is Lt Mura in PIC.

  • Ro was basically on probation in her first appearance or two, IIRC. Uniform modifications are allowed at the discretion of the officer's CO, and Ro was already in something of a disciplinary thing, so forbidding modifications makes some sense.

    While the earring is typically religious and she may have been able to argue for reasonable accomodation on those grounds, Ro specifically wears it on the left ear, which is considered a secular way to show familial heritage while also indicating you don't follow the Bajoran faith.

  • That phaser is shockingly detailed for its size.

  • My take is that nobody will care if you are bald, but with all their tech you can have as much or as little hair as you want. It's an aesthetic choice that's entirely yours, and no matter what you pick it's not going to really attract attention. I mean, who's going to care about your hair when you live next to a temporally displaced Klingon veterinarian and work with a guy who once got to be Q for a day? And even that is just kind of normal?
