Lower Decks Trailer Analysis

None of us will be able to unsee it if you keep posting it View attachment 16775
The thing is, as an out-of-context visual shot I find this actually pretty cool looking in itself. It looks like a futuristic city environment from some high budget sci-fi movie. But therein lies the problem, there shouldn't be any cityscape-like structures inside a ship like Discovery or Enterprise.
 
Yeah. That's the one that springs to my mind. But, almost every iteration of Trek has turbolift oddities.
One of my favorite of these “turbolift odditites” – if you can call it that – is that little notch on the Original Series bridge module, that's supposed to represent the location where the turbolift stops at the bridge. Problem is that since the interior set design has the turbolift at an off-center angle, all of the bridge is actually facing sideways rather than straight ahead. :lol: I know, some have retconned it into being the place where an extra turbolift car is parked, but I don't think that was the original intention.

But yeah, it's not at the same level (pun intended) of ridiculousness as Discovery's rollercoaster turbolift. :shifty:
 
The DSC stuff isn’t an oddity, it is a full blown “WTF?” Like they weren’t even thinking about how this would actually work.
I find it odd...like all the deck numbers in ST V, or the bottomless pit in Nemesis, among others.

Yeah, it's ridiculous. And I just ignore it and move on.
 
Watched the first three episodes of Solar Opposites last night, which Mike McMahan co-created. Moderately funny, though not for the faint of heart.
