News? Stories from Dubious Sources

if that's the surprise consider me thoroughly disappointed while TWOK is one of my favorite trek movie i just couldn't give a damn about him pre space seed nor do i care about a trek set entirely on earth
It's not just pre-space seed.

Indeed. It's hard to figure out what would make this interesting. Khan being a dictator on Earth is probably the oddest thing to say "Oh, Star Trek!"
 
Since the Nobel was just awarded for genome editing, the topic would fit perfectly
So, a topic about a genetically engineered superman becoming a dictator is a timely topic? Is that what we want to discuss in terms of genetic engineering? :vulcan:
 
Well, just announced at NYCC... Kate Mulgrew as Janeway is the lead on Prodigy. That throws the rumor of Kirk being in that show out of consideration. Actually surprised she's coming back -- That's awesome! Not surprised that it won't involve Kirk.

There does not seem to be a Khan announcement.
 
Janeway's coming back on Prodigy? I'm actually pique by this show now. Will she be a regular or is this just a cameo?
 
Same relation as Borg invasions, WW3, Dominion war, and eyes getting ripped out.
Not seeing the correlation. Because Khan is basically saying "We can genetically engineer people but they will become dictators." So, genetic engineering, which already had an uphill climb with GMO, gets another knock because a show that features genetic engineering a superman immediately just highlights only the worst possible outcome.

Cool. At least Borg invasions I know can be fought back against. The Dominion War there was the promise of succeeding despite the odds. Eyes being ripped out can be repaired.

This?

This is just highlighting the bad.

Whelp, at least Discovery won't be constantly harangued as "the most depressing Trek show" any more. For now. :(
