[Noname Given]

Kirk's a given.

At least for the finale whenever it comes. I'm sure they'll show Pike handing the Enterprise off to Kirk with some sort of montage leading up to the accident.

I'm sure Spock will no doubt show up on Discovery in the finale, whenever it comes.

He may already be there, depending on whether or not it takes place after his arrival in the Short Trek.

I'm not sure if you didn't understand my point, or are trying to make an obscure one...

Kirk's a given.

All I can say, it he'd better introduce himself as "James R. Kirk" or I boycott!!!!!

Likely the former. I generally don’t engage in the acts of a pedantic dick.

Re-read the post.

I'm not sure if the "pedantic dick" comment was aimed at WarpFactorZ or strictly about yourself. Care to clarify?

Kirk: "Congratulations on your promotion, sir. I'm James R. Kirk."
Pike: "Hmm... my middle initial is R. You should change yours."
Kirk: "...okay. I don't think so."
Pike: "Promise me, Mister, that if something were to happen to me, physically, you'll change your middle name!"

Purely myself.

I did. Still apparently misinterpreting it in the same way, I suspect. No matter...

In that case, I'd be mindful in the future of how such a comment might be misconstrued.

They were saying Spock being on Discovery, not the Enterprise.

 

[Tuskin38]

I imagine the engine room will be redesigned for SNW, would be too expensive to have the entire thing to be CGI for multiple episodes.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the corridors were as well, since before they were just redressed Discovery corridors.

Retconning Colt into an alien does make one wonder how the Talosians expected to breed her with Pike. My theory is Colt somehow turned into an alien after using Krall's life extension tech in Star Trek Beyond in an offscreen incident.

I think that that whole "Colt is an alien" is a mistake by someone that doesn't actually work on the set. No doubt in my mind Colt was the redhead redshirt we saw during the closing montage segment of the S2 finale with Spock taking his position on the bridge.

If it's years after the Cage the woman hopefully got a promotion in the meantime...

But not to captain. We got to respect canon!

Oh I would love for Captain Colt to show up in an episode and for a certain group of fans to rage about it

But there's no way we won't meet female captains in STW. Unless we never meet another Star Trek vessel for the whole show.

 

[fireproof78]

Can we keep the fan rage to a dull roar with this show...?
