Spoilers Strange New Worlds General Discussion Thread

I just want him to look natural. Odd how TOS managed to make the Vulcans look more believable than any production in the 55 years since. It’s like the secret was lost to time.

Not really. He looks very good now.

One thing about the material they use nowadays for prosthetics is that it's translucent, like flesh. More natural looking than the foam rubber.
 
Well... They kind of are, to a degree.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

In Discovery they're obsessed with cramming in TOS links. Now SNW looks to do the same. They're bringing back TOS characters. Might as well just reboot and complete the 5 year mission.

(BTW, I'm not advocating for this. Just saying 'might as well')
 
You say that now :)

Wait until you get to see Akiva Goldsman's great writing on screen.
I can't wait. This is the one Trek I am fully on board for, even with Uhura and Chapel.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

Yes, please.

I'd rather see Pike.

The movies have got Kirk.
 
Damn you can't see the pylons. There is a head in the way

The ships plaque is in the wrong place ....

just saying.
 
he looks fine to me. :shrug:

My post was unclear. I was trying to say that I don’t sweat the details as long as he looks natural. I think he looks fine here, but his final Disco scene suffered from a cosplay vibe that plagues a lot of the Vulcans in the spin-off shows. Glad they fixed that.
 
I actually liked the look of several of the Vulcans on Enterprise. Of course they also had plenty I was less then pleased with.....

In honesty that's kind of how I see the Andorians looking, something that is cosplay (though knowing the craftsmanship in them is quite high).
 
The writing on PIC has generally been better than that on DSC so yeah, I can expect SNW to be better-written.
