    What are your controversial Star Trek opinions?

    All I know is if that's Kirk's response to Romulan Ale, he shouldn't try the Romulan Whiskey.

    It's an ale. It's heady stuff, but it's Romulan beer.

    Bad Starship Names

    I can't help thinking that translated into Klingon, this is one of the worst insults you can throw.

    Data's On/Off switch is better located than B4's.

    STAR TREK V DIRECTOR´S CUT

    Continuing threads that have been dormant for a few weeks to a couple of months is okay, as long as the new stuff is relevant and informative, so others can contribute in reaction. Posting in a thread that is a year old is usually out of bounds. Occasionally a Mod will allow it because of the...

    STAR TREK V DIRECTOR´S CUT

    I just checked, and this is a necrothread. :eek:

    Deleted Scenes for III and IV

    I didn't realize PM Magazine lasted that long after Entertainment Tonight stole its thunder.

    Shared universe with other franchises

    I'm not arguing against that. I'm saying there are degrees of telling the network execs they're stupid, and the scorched earth method ENT used probably contributed to their being canceled. Letting those execs think they've put one over on the producers while staving off the timeliness damage as...

    Shared universe with other franchises

    This is where you argue that Enterprise have only one or two bands on, not a new one every week. The Beatles and the Rolling Stones is fine, but leave the Wayfarers at the hungry i.

    Shared universe with other franchises

    We also need to remember that in 1962 the Beatles were a skiffle band from LIverpool that had just finished a gig as a house band in Germany. They weren't big or popular, but would become so, and when they did everyone wanted to listen to everything they'd done to that point.

    A better choice would have been a video playing in the cafeteria. That way they get the band onscreen, which was the idea.

    What are your controversial Star Trek opinions?

    All very true. Even as a journeyman manufacturing grunt, I've had jobs that have taught me things like 'optical dB loss' and what a Faraday cage is. I'd wager many to most on here have little to no knowledge of either one without their own specialized work experience or education.

    Gulp it like Gary

    That's because the tribble ate it.

    While TMP does allow freedom of inference, there's still that one scene about "the oath"...

    It's amazing the Decker unit doesn't feature more prominently in that scene.

    MId to late '80s, drawn by Alan Davis.

    While TMP does allow freedom of inference, there's still that one scene about "the oath"...

    It's made clear in the novelization that Deltans produce pheromones that mimic the same type of pheromones in most Federation species, specifically sexual ones. Combine this with the Deltan propensity to have aggressive sex, and less sexually progressive species tend to be overwhelmed by sex...

    While TMP does allow freedom of inference, there's still that one scene about "the oath"...

    The line was clearly something that was meant to be addressed in an upcoming series. Makes me wonder what else was intended to be fleshed out in future episodes that they forgot to cut from the script. Ilia's entire relationship with Decker comes to mind.

    We've seen a simple watch to tell time. Kirk was wearing one in TWOK.
