Spoilers Star Trek: Discovery 2x14 - "Such Sweet Sorrow, Part 2"
- Thread starter Commander Richard
- Start date
I wish that space battle hadn't been so busy. It was scaled up to such a large degree, in a way that didn't really add anything. A space battle is more exciting when you can track the state of play, but this had so many swarms of tiny fighters just shooting all over the place, who could even tell what was going on and who was winning/losing?
DS9 had the right idea on space battles, in terms of the choreography of them at least. They had huge fleets, but you could track it all.

The fact they said “Today is a good day to die” almost made up for itI would have chit my pants if They had played part of this in the background during that scene...
Those satellites would typically be in lagrange points between Earth and Moon. They'd have to be as large as entire continents to cast shadows. (sun takes up a 5 degree arc and anything that would eclipse it would need to fill that arc, at least partially). Sorry, I am way off subject here.
Haha I would bit it’s almost 3AM here I need to sleep.
Tomorrow if someone hasn’t beaten me too it.
I like Horner's Klingon theme more than JG's. The latter is too overused.
Ummm, perhaps because it fits perfectly with their overall tone and was the first to be written.
Followed by three minutes of the umpire rocking back and forth on the ground holding his crotch hissing in pain.
If you're gonna throw, make it count!
I've seen every episode. I like it just fine. It was a joke.
Let me know how the show was.
BLUE SCREECHING PHASER BEAMS.
Now that's what a phaser should look like. Well done, f/x team!

I swear I'm tempted to copy-paste Jett Reno in all but name for a fan series.
When the Season Two blurays come out, someone can edit it in. Either this one, or the version they used in First Contact.I would have chit my pants if They had played part of this in the background during that scene...
Pretty sure the idea to still go to the future after Control was destroyed is to take away the possibility that another rogue AI could develop consciousness and steal the data. Also makes sense of Calypso, as the ship can never be destroyed (apparently), scuttle it as far away from civilisation as they can when its usefulness is done.
Isn't the Federation already partially in the Beta Quadrant?
This episode was both mesmerizing and obnoxiously loud and way too busy, but I'll recommend it for the third act more than anything else.
According to the Star Maps a large portion of it is.
Earth sits right on the boarder between Alpha and Beta.
(WARNING: VERY LARGE PIC when clicked on)
It seems like Saru is now the new Captain by default.
And, sad as it was, Admiral Cornwell died heroically, saving the Enterprise.

Well I'll up the ante:
Season 3 amended curve ball - Discovery finds itself in the Orville Universe and they encounter a humanoid automaton species who's first contact words are "All this has happened before and all this will happen again!"
Anybody else notice the Enterprise's aft phaser bank located in about the same place that the Defiant's was in "IaMD, Parts I and II(ENT)"? A nearly identical phaser effect, too. Good attention to interseries continuity.
