Good news for you! They did make a V, and it was amazing! You know how Vulcans are all logical, and the Romulans are all emotional, yet they’re related? Turns out that Vulcans can lose control and start laughing their butts off! We get some good familial background for Spock in it, and I’ve yet to see any of the Star…

I mostly disagree with you. So let’s just say that you create your own Star Trek... and it’s okay. But people don’t like it, and they create their own Star Trek... and it sucks. So even more people create their own Star Trek off of that, and we’re mired in a bunch of movies/shows that are all ripping off of the ideas…

I can see them not wanting fan films to make things confusing in terms of the “timeline”, but a lot of the issue here is the fault of CBS. They’ve decided that they want to create Star Trek films in this new universe and they’re making money on it, but there is a large fanbase out there that wants the kind of content…

Whaaaaaaa-? Okay... maybe....

First Grant Ward was a tragic victim of extreme child abuse who got vengeance against his abusers (protecting others in his family) and remained loyal to the man who saved him (and may have killed a dog), and tragically had to betray the coworkers he was with for that much longer and more meaningful relationship.…

Awesome! I hope there are more “unknown betrayer” events! The first time we had one of those (where there is a betrayer, but only the betrayer knows who he/she is) we had to go around collecting items to take off bomb collars. I was near the last item I needed to get my bomb collar off, when another player swooped in…

We really do need to start a support group...

I was so very excited going into the theater for Star Trek 2009... and I left the theater so very heartbroken. They did everything that I was disappointed with in the last few TNG movies and doubled down on it. Less story, more senseless action, no philosophy or science,…

I get why they don’t burn them (that can spread disastrously), but the zombies are attracted to fire. Why not fashion some fire arrows, fill some steel drums with wood (and a covering for weather), and use those as emergency distractions in case they’re set upon by another horde? Or setup kill traps more akin to what…

I agree, but they’ve gone into this idea that “who we were doesn’t matter anymore, it’s who we are that does”, and you don’t get any more than a brief flashback at best on the villains. We still don’t know why the wolves became what they were! The Governor? Nope, not a clue. Terminus had a brief bit, but it’s a long…

I think it’s one of those things that you have to view in a certain perspective, like the Adam West Batman shows. I think of it less like a show, and more like a stage performance, and that really works for me! So, I happen to love the TOS series more than any other (TNG is a close second for me) because they also…

Yeah... I mean, best case scenario, they have a fantastic season 7 and we reflect on what a great show they’ve made off of such a horrific stumble. It’s really not something you can go back and fix...

Okay, and Abrams was your delicious blue drink. Establishing that TFA was different from the prequels and felt like the original trilogy still didn’t need a near shot for shot remake of A New Hope. It’s not like the problems with the prequels were mysterious and something people can’t put their finger on... it was…

Oooooooooh! And it was about the same amount of time since “The Wrath of Khan”, so we needed a reminder of that too! Whew! And here I was thinking JJ Abrams was a hack!

I agree with you that the format is certainly a detriment, but would hope that they take a look at “The Voyage Home” which really had no villain, and was still a very enjoyable movie and attempt to emulate those things as well. They have gone more action oriented, and while it is enjoyable at times, we’ve had pretty…

Right? Original storyline ideas, things that happened on set, background by the writers... I skip the synopsis unless I’m trying to reference something specific in an argument on here! It’s good fun!

That seems... ill-advised. Do they really need the “CL” (or whatnot) to be on both sides of the designation?

I’ve never played the Starfleet Battles tabletop game, and I’m glad I did not. I did have a game a long time ago that I purchased during a school function (a book drive or something) that would allow you to…

C’mon... pre-judge the movie... don’t you want to be a cool kid like me? (Flips up collar and takes a long drag off his cigarette...)

I’m just not a fan of the universe they’ve been building here, which is tragic for this life long Star Trek fan. I know that it has been popular, but something I’ve enjoyed throughout my…

Hi crosis101! Um... so... this is embarassing, but you’re 100% correct. I was thinking that there was an “RB” designation, which I assumed was runabout, but was the designation of the colonist ship “Santa Maria” on the DS9 episode about the hippies who had gone to be one with nature and lock people in hot boxes. I’m…

Well, Rogue Null, another good question would be why the “Sarge”, “Sniper”, and “Tech” designated stormtroopers require bright lights to shine in their boots. I had those when I was a kid too, but I imagine they wouldn’t be all that useful for a soldier...

Yeah, especially with all other ships having the “NCC” prefix attached to them (except for runabouts, I believe). It had nothing to do whether a ship was a Constellation, Galaxy, Intrepid, or other ship type. I was super confused reading his question, and it’s things like that which make me wonder if the man who wrote…
