    Shouldn't all the Discovery characters grow neck beards?

    Considering the glory that is Disco Spock's neck beard, and Discovery's retconning of Klingons (they have hair now!) shouldn't all the remaining facially folically challenged characters grow neck beards? Surely there is room for more glorious neck warmers!

    Luke Skywalker - Galactic Hero or Mass Murderer?

    With two torpedoes (and the help of the Force) Luke Skywalker set off the chain reaction that destroyed the Death Star, and instantly snuffed out the life of millions of people. Was his act justified? Did all those who served on the Death Star share the guilt for the destruction of Jedha City...

    Discovery and "The Orville" Comparisons

    I have spent some (too much) time reading through reactions to the Discovery trailer, and I have noticed more than a few reactions that are, in essence "I am really looking forward to The Orville, I'm not all that excited about ST: Discovery." As these thoughts are coming from people who are...

    Karaoke

    This thread is inspired by my attempts to sing karaoke at a party last weekend. It didn't go all that well, and I realized it was the first time I had ever participated in karaoke during the daylight hours, in front of a crowd of more than 50 people, and while totally sober. So I thought I...

    NFL 2016 Off-season: What exactly are we supposed to do now?

    The Title of Episode VIII (spoilers, duh)

    Speculationing here! What do you think will be the title of Star Wars: Episode VIII? The Force Is Awake But Still Needs Coffee? The Search For More Money? Where is Wicket? Stop Touching My Lightsaber? Or something far less appropriate?

    What is the best non-human species in Star Wars?

    There are too many to create a workable poll... so comment away. My vote? The Mon Cala. Amazing star-ships, a very "alien" look which required a effort to design and implement, noticeably alien speech pattern and breathing, a very memorable role (Admiral Ackbar) and a complete lack of...

    What was/is your favorite decade? What did you love about it? Why is it so special to you? Have any fun memories to share? Note: You do not have to have actually lived in the decade to think of it as your "favorite" but that would help. :)

    When did Star Trek on television hit its high water mark? When was it at its peak quality, at its best? During the TOS era, during the Berman TNG/DS9/VOY era? What caused it to decline, and when did it hit rock bottom?

    The Taste of Home

    Taste and smell are two senses strongly tied to memory. What smell and/or taste reminds you of where you grew up or your childhood? If I smell orange blossoms or that strong smell that comes right before a rainstorm I am reminded of growing up near orange groves and sitting through the...
