Spoilers Strange New Worlds General Discussion Thread

That's acceptable within reason. However when the entire premise of a major film is going to the center of the galaxy relatively easily, and then the entire premise of a 7 season tv show is that they can't cross the galaxy (i.e. only twice the distance covered in said movie) any shorter than 70 years, without any explanation for the discrepancy, there's a bit of a problem.
"Good evening and welcome to 'Whose Trek is It, Anyway?" - the show where ALL the stats and specifications are made up, the onscreen speeds NEVER match the warp speed tables in the series bibles, and ships' apparent sizes change depending on what makes a good shot."

Stop. You've ruined my childhood!

Rips up my Chronology
Cancel Paramount and join the other Star franchise. They don't need 70 years to cross their own galaxy just for exaggerated plot reasons that make no sense (Thrawn's return from a similar predicament means he was only gone for 9 years at most, probably far less) :lol:
 
I was so amped up for this season since s1 was a campy fun blast. Just enough serious story with campiness to make it enjoyable. I have found s2 to be a dud thus far. The fun of last season is gone and a more serious tone has replaced it. Lotus episode was almost spock brain bad. I hope there are better eps.

"Spock's Brain" is the epitome of sixties campiness. "Among the Lotus Eaters" has no camp. Campiness makes things enjoyable. "Among the Lotus Eaters" was not enjoyable so it is almost as bad as "Spock's Brain," which has much campiness, yet campiness is good, but "Spock's Brain" is bad, but . . . ILLOGICAL, ILLOGICAL, ALL UNITS RELATE . . . NORMAN COORDINATE!

I can't even coordinate the idea of this episode and "Spock's Brain" in the same category. Even if I considered this episode bad, it would be a different type of bad than Spock's Brain, which I do consider bad because the dialog is insufferable, the concepts are cringe even by 60s standards and it's all unpleasant.
 
Harrumph. I like Spock's brain. Stupid? Yes. Illogical? Yes. Full of medical impossibilities? Yes. But clever, fun and enjoyable entertainment.
