    Shouldn’t Areel Shaw have been disqualified?

    No, I was just joking, as far as I know they're not canonically related. But you know, let's go pitch the idea to Terry Matalas... :lol:

    But did he do the fall? Chevy did have quite a talent for physical comedy. Ah, yes, I remember the Samurai. I never knew they repeated things so much. I didn't watch it enough to notice. Am I allowed to laugh when I get there? :rommie: I've been waiting for that. :rommie: This is a great...

    ...Trek movies. SNW is a good place to start. Yes, some of the humor there is references back to TOS or TNG, but you don't have to get every joke to enjoy the show. Nimoy is the reference standard of Spock. He shows a man who has emotions, but is also very good at suppressing them most of...

    ...just his style. At one point, he's wailing out names of heroes and one of them is Jack Ruby. Probably. I think you were meant to, that was the joke. It's odd that they not only chose the least representative sketch in the series as the YouTube clip, but also cut out the part that made it...

    (Most) Smear-Gel Star Trek Art 2025

    ...of the series. Drew a comic based off a Tumblr post (also trying a new brush I ultimately Did Not Like). This was an OC for ArtFight. Small sketch of Captain Pike that was a part of a Sketch page. Just a drawing prompt as a warm up. This was just a joke about how blunt Vulcan memes would be.

    You should look up penis iceberg, it's the gift that keeps on giving. :lol: My grandfather said: tonight, we'll sleep untill next year. Solid dad joke that one

    Was Star Trek one of Hollywood's greatest losers of 2025?

    comparing a joke that went flat with the Sweeney advert is hyperbole at best. Anyway, Section 31 stunk. I'm surprised it even got 16%. Tommy Wiseau could have made a better Star Trek movie than whoever created that thing. But SNW season 3 was good. I don't think as a franchise Star Trek is...

    ...the war. They were both sort of okay, and still not okay. Often caricatured, albeit less blatantly than during wartime. Treated as the butt of jokes, derided for the supposedly low quality of their exports. Many Americans wouldn't buy Japanese products Because. All of that was acceptable...

    ...it. That's interesting. Where was BJ during all this? I'd like to see his take religion. Flagg was right! :rommie: So... no water-into-wine jokes? :rommie: That's cool. I don't think I knew about their relationship. Massive failure of Duke's detective instincts. You go, Aunt Clara...

    I guess someone forgot to tell Spock and Nero this in the 2009 movie.

    Since subspace as Star Trek uses it is completely fictional, it can do whatever the writer decides it can do.

    Spoilers Starfleet Academy General Discussion Thread

    Unlike what Discovery's finale would have you believe, subspace fields, like the type that constantly surround Federation ships, are proven to make a joke of the event horizon of black holes.

    ..."Dregs and Vestiges" series, which will probably be in the next post. Further on, the Bees are actually starting to grow on me as an absurd in-joke. Refreshing my memory with a quick look-up, the story is that the first Bee sketch was very poorly received, and NBC immediately told Lorne...

    Nacelle Star Trek action figures

    They said they'd send replacements and other gifts to those who received faulty figures. I think the "1000 figures" comment was more of a joking aspiration - i doubt they'll come anywhere close - it would also take them over 50 years at the current release rate, lol...

    All the mutants and whatnot running around I'm not sure they'd even realize it was an alien.

    The curse(?) of small universe syndrome

    It's a big universe. There could be plenty of Starfleet heroes we don't see in addition to the ones we do. I mean, even in the 22nd-24th centuries, there should be many distinguished Starfleet figures who never appeared on TV or movies. But that just pulls the audience out of the story by...

    The curse(?) of small universe syndrome

    ...it spoils it for the writers who will come after. And as this is not just a background display graphic, filled with production crew name in-jokes and gibberish, meant to provide realism but be ignored for what it says, but rather the focal point of a significant scene - we're to notice it...

    Spoilers Stranger Things - Season 5

    Yea, I did jokingly mention earlier that the characters have been racking up a BODY COUNT against the US military. (besides the demi-gorgon's slaughtering a bunch) They are going to be reporting a heckuva lot of 'training accidents' for 1987 troop deaths.
