There's 25% dfferent and then there's HOW MANY DRUGS DID YOU TAKE AND WHY AM I ALSO HIGH RIGHT NOW.
The turbolift funhouse is one of the only thing from Discovery I can accept into my personal canon. They've always been like that in my head, back to the NX-01.
When Kirk's doing his "I'VE LOST COMMAND!" turbolift breakdown, he's being rocketed through the ship at 90mph and thrown upside down, loop the loops and rollercoaster drops and shit like that.

And horny. Don’t forget horny.
Decon chamber. That is all.
And that shit was from 2001-05.

I can accept the Burn but not the stupid turbo lifts. But, that's been true since Star Trek V so eh?
I always thought that was just the ship losing its inertial dampers..or whatever...
Again no one said that previous Trek didn't suck. Star Trek 5 is the worst of the Trek films. It was awful and almost killed the movie franchise. I remember coming out of the theater completely disappointed and questioning my love for Star Trek..
That turbo lift thing in ST5 was probably a mis-label from a prop person that didn't know what they were doing. Shatner I will bet didn't care about little details like that and totally missed it in editing. But In the case of Disco and SNW turbo fun houses they knew exactly what they were doing but didn't care. Just one of the weirdest decisions in all of Trek. I can understand the need to extend turbo lift conversation scenes for the script. But that doesn't mean the interiors are the size of Manhattan....just really weird.
TOS really is the "rule of thirds"... and somehow those crowdsourced IMDb rankings turned out fairly spot on...
And this was floating around in Mcoys mind. Now if there really was a rabbit that lived and worked with the crew on the Enterprise the I would have stopped watching long ago. Well maybe not stopped watching but treat the show like a Batman 66 or Lost in Space level show. Which of course it was not.
Ah,yes, they must not care argument.Again no one said that previous Trek didn't suck. Star Trek 5 is the worst of the Trek films. It was awful and almost killed the movie franchise. I remember coming out of the theater completely disappointed and questioning my love for Star Trek..

One has to be thorough and attentive to keep everyone safe. To that end I volunteer myself to spend 2 or 3 hours in there with Commander Tucker.Decon chamber. That is all.

Well yeah it can't all be serious. Again there is nothing wrong with a light hearted adventure. But let's keep it reasonable. I'm a big fan of Season 3 of TOS. People hate it but there is some really good stuff there. The Enterprise incident, The Cloud Miners, For The World is Hollow and I have touched the Sky, the Tholian web, Let That be your last Battlefield etc. Heck I even like And the Children Shall lead. Probably the second least Favorite TOS episode ever after Spock's brain. But so many good episodes that season.
And I will repeat for like the 12th time. I don't think SFA was all bad. There were some really good moments. Maybe season 2 will be great. I hope it is. I would love Star Trek to end on a high note.
This is so nebulous as to be completely unuseful as any sort of direction in guiding a production.
I'm sorry but that Disco turbolift thing. They didn't care. They did it to extend an action scene. Nothing more. It was ridiculous. I remember I was half asleep on the couch when I had seen the episode. I thought I was dreaming at first. I rewound the episode to see if those blurry imagines I had seen in and out of consciousness were real. I was shocked that they were.Ah,yes, they must not care argument.
It's common for shows to have bigger interior sets than the exterior. It's to have enough filming space etc. The interiors rarely match the exterior 100%. As long as it SEEMS like it works everyone is happy. The disco/ent turbolift int??? Impossible to reconcile in ones mind or use suspension of disbelief. The only reasonable explanation I could come up with is that for some strange reason someone decided to test an early version of Holodeck tech out in the turbolift shafts....
I think we all knew it was silly. But I won't lie. I did enjoy looking at Jolene Blalock half naked... I think they even showed her nude rear end one episode.Decon chamber. That is all.

Tv was quickly changing by the late 90's/ early 2000's. What began in Enterprise continued into Kelvin Trek and Kurtzman Trek. The blatant sex stuff that is. Carol Marcus posing in her underwear etc.
