One problem I have with some fans of modern Trek is they tend not embrace the cheese of TOS and when it shows up in modern Trek they automatically cringe at it. People need to sit back and appreciate some cheese every once in awhile...
Space Nazis!
- Thread starter F. King Daniel
- Start date
There's a difference between "an alien planet/Holodeck murderers that mimic the Nazis" cheese and "ha, ha, here's ACTUAL NAZIS" cheese.
Not really.
Errr... mind control??????
It's funny how Patterns of Force is only cheesy 40 years on though.. It had great impact years ago and the explanation for the nazis was integral to the story unlike "Hodgkin's Law of Parallel Planetary Development" which was pure bollocks.
I adored the ENT space nazis.
^Long time no see, teacake
I imagine that's quite true -- it was probably chilling to see that only twenty years after WWII.

Yah I need to get back to this most excellent forum. I went to a con yesterday and it made me regret frittering my online time away on WoW rather than on talking Trek.
pssh mind control that is so 1950s sci-fi
I was pretty indifferent about it.
I'm just bummed they did what they did with Silik.

^Did he really die? Daniels also died in that episode but he was fit as a fiddle at the end.
Ah, hell, man, I don't even remember. I haven't seen the episode since it aired. I'm seriously overdue for a series rewatch.
I just remember seeing him die and sighing. =/

Yeah, he died 
Very distinctive voice that guy. And he was in a lot of Trek:

He was actually oddly similar to Daniels.. thin, a bit oily, commited to a cause but also a puppet.

Good guy.
I knew from reading season four previews that the writers wanted to finalize the TCW as quickly as possible and I was glad to hear that overall, but I always liked Silik and the Suliban in general. I wish I could have gotten more of them and theirs without having to keep going with the TCW.

I was actually quite ticked off about the "cliffhanger." And really ticked off with Stormfront. I would have preferred a better episode about the crew's homecoming (perhaps even a two-parter).
Instead we got a really bad "wrap up" of the TCW.
eta: Adding insult to injury that this was Enterprise's last season and a truncated one at that.

It was an interesting twist.. I thought the typical "homecoming arc" that everyone seems to love around here has been bled to death by the followup to BOBW, and DS9's War arcs and all that.. Instead they just went for it and let all the crazy ideas fly. Some of it was really cool and some of it was crazy, but they turned it up a notch and let their Trekkie Flannel fly. No one can fault them for that. It's what made Season 4 exciting to watch.

Of course you do. However somehow they had to do it, and they did. It was inevitable..You CAN'T have a Trek prequel without Space Nazis.
