if a post requires googleing to understand its hidden joke or whatever it was supposed to be, it wasn't a good post.

I disagree.

Eh, I think I'd prefer a bad joke (which I didn't fully get before looking it up either) over people trying to dress someone down for factual innaccuracy when they don't even know the subject matter well enough to know which actress is which. If you're going to tell someone they're wrong about a subject you don't know well, you should first put in the effort to make sure that they actually are wrong.

Might be reading to much into this, but Rebecca Romijn called Celiar Gooding ‘Cadet’

It’s not significant at all. They’re just some background people they threw into the scene (plus an FX guy right?). almost no one is even going to remember them when SNW airs.
They’re not going to explain it.
Probably means a promotion to captain is imminent.
Well, we needed new characters to break out.Probably means a promotion to captain is imminent.
Calling it now: pay Shatner $1M to do a 5 second recording of him walking onto a set now and shaking hands with Mount. In 5-6 years, de-age the image for Pike's promotion to Fleet Captain. With maybe a joke about Kirk taking over someday.
It's just a general pet peeve of mine. If somebody has time to type "I don't know who that is," they have time to Google who the hell that is.
You mind explaining that? Since that book is not canon, how does it "Canonically explain" anything?
Besides, if you want to be "chronological" about it, Lt. Amin would in fact have been introduced in Q&A, which The Enterprise War even referenced.
The Enterprise War is Canon, at least currently.
Chronologically from an out-of-universe standpoint.
Explain.
The novel was marketed as being the untold story of what the Enterprise was doing during the Klingon War while we were watching the story of the Discovery, and nothing we've seen to date has contradicted that position.
I know how the novel was marketed, BTW, because I talked directly to the author, John Jackson Miller, about it, albeit briefly, at a convention.
That means nothing in terms of canon. It's no different than novels about the Enterprise E in the Dominion War. Tie in media.
Your argument would hold more validity if we hadn't previously been directly told by the people behind current Star Trek that tie-in media is Canon until it's not.
Quote? Link?
