Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 4x04 - "A Case of Chiaroscuro"

[FrankenTron]

Fan discussion does not represent obligation for the writers.


Which is how many writers are.

Well on that case the sane could be said about snw. The new creators can totally excise it from prime trek canon. All kurtzman trek if they wish.

Can I ask why this is a problem when the Klingons were a stone in the Federation's shoe for some time?

Because she doesn't know it and needs a bunch of books to speak it during The Undiscovered Country.

Insert continuity here.

Go for it.

Changes my opinion not a wit. It's a ridiculous game that fans play because...


...


...

Genuinely don't know. Probably to be superior to other fans if my experience taught me anything.

We don't need more combs.

Picard will never part with his.

 

[Tuskin38]

people keep saying this episode is gimmicky, but it really isn't? If you remove the Black and White it doesn't change the story that much at all. Though you'd have to change Uhura's slip up about the colour of trees
to be something else.

These last two eps have got to be in the running for the worst back-to-back episode combo in Trek history.

 

[fireproof78]

Blinks in These Are the Voyages two parter.

I guess with spider noir out and being ao successful this will feel a bit underwhelming. I really wish SNW would have followed what they started in the first episode. By the ebd of the first until now its been pretty painful. This show is trying to be edgy like Buffy or other far better shows. Its trying to be everything but star trek. With only 10 episodes its a hard pill to swallow. The horror episode was ok.

It's a good thing that you're completely wrong!

Nope.

This was definite real world director interference as I read Nichols protested the scene. I think we should probably read it as Uhura having the books for backup and her seeming stammering just a result of the extremely stressful situation (breaking into Rura Penthe) and not an actual lack of fluency in Klingon. The way, say, a Julliard graduate might just flub an audition despite having tons of acting experience due to nervousness in front of a certain director or something.

I didn’t like that one very much. Una doing all that seems noble, but kind of short-sighted and dumb.

Aboard the Griffin, they weren't on an Enterprise shuttle. Kirk is Lt. Cmdr., Spock and La'an are Lt.
Why does La'an have authority?

Because Captain Pike put La'an in charge of the mission.

That overrides Kirk's rank.

 

[nightwind1]

Casablanca is overrated.

Overrated?!?!?

One of the greatest films ever made is NOT "overrated".

I don't know if anything will ever beat Voyager's three bangers in a row from season 3.

• Darkling
• Rise
• Favorite Son

I see someone’s been into the brownies on the red plate and wasn’t prepared for the experience. Should probably stick to the blue plate brownies for the future.

 

[nightwind1]

I absolutely LOVED the homage to the "La Marseillaise" scene in CASABLANCA. (Of course, I adore CASABLANCA, and have probably watched it over a dozen times.)

 

[Guy Gardener]

Overrated?!?!?

Cassablaca is no Caddyshack.

 

[Ovation]

Cassablaca is no Caddyshack.

I never thought I’d ever live long enough to encounter a second person on the planet who would express this thought.

 

[Ovation]

Just to be clear, the other person is NOT me. He’s a buddy from my undergrad days 40 years ago. He considers Caddyshack the finest film ever committed to celluloid. (He is, of course, quite insane, but still a great guy. ).

 

[Ghouleddie74]

I know Family Guy got a lot of funny mileage out of Peter dismissing The Godfather by saying, "IT INSISTS UPON ITSELF," but if you know someone who thinks Casablanca is an awful movie, walk away and fast. You don't need that level of negativity in your life.
