Reminds me of “Sunrise Earth”:

I don’t want an R2 unit toy, I want an R2 unit. I want a real droid!

Why would you expect there to be sexuality in a comic about a six-year-old? Gross, dude.

The science nerdiness of the show is evident in the episode When Aliens Attack. In that episode, an Ally McBeal-ish show from the late 90s is beamed into outer space. A thousand years later, the show reaches Lrrr of Omicron Persiei 8. The thing is, Omicron Persiei is an actual star, and it is believed to be 1000 light…

The 2016 US Presidential election has certainly been one of the weirdest campaigns in a very long time.

Well, you could sum up what the First Order has been up to.

Duh.

I’ve been to Northlandz. I drive by it on my commute. It’s impressive, but it might only appeal to enthusiasts. For kids who are into toy trains (like Thomas the Tank Engine), they might be bored. It’s not particularly interactive. There’s only a couple places where kids can control the trains.

Well, just because he’s gay doesn’t mean he’s undesirable to women. It means women are undesirable to him.

Yeah, that’s how they’re talking about it in the press. I’m talking about how it’s handled in the movie. You can reconcile the gay Sulu and the straight Sulu without having to call in a rip in the fabric of the universe. If they don’t single out the fact that he is only into guys, then anything is possible.

Are they writing him as gay, or are they writing him as being in a romantic relationship with another man? Do you see my point? All I know is that Sulu is in some sort of relationship with another man. That could suggest that he is gay, but it could also suggest that he is bisexual. Unless he flat out says he only…

I don’t see why he has to be in the closet, just because we never saw him in a gay relationship before. Perhaps he’s just bisexual, and the two relationships we saw him have in the original series just happened to be a couple of the heterosexual ones.

It seems strange to me that so many people, including George Takei, are quick to suggest that Sulu can’t be gay, because he was established as straight in TOS. It further amazes me that some people, including one Simon Pegg, thinks the only way to reconcile this phenomenon is by a rupture in the time-space continuum…

Okay... that just means he’s bisexual, not just gay. It’s not an all-or-nothing scenario, you can actually have it both ways.

Okay, so maybe that just means that he’s bisexual, which is something that hadn’t come up before. I don’t see how this changes anything about the original Sulu or the alternate Sulu. Why does it have to be an all or nothing scenario?

Why is it “changing” his sexuality? Why isn’t it just revealing something new about his sexuality that we didn’t know before?

Whatever magic ingredient determines our sexuality was different for Sulu in our timeline.

I’m trying to remember- were there any episodes in the original series that established Sulu as a heterosexual? Did he have a girlfriend at any point? I know he had a daughter at one point, but that doesn’t mean much.
