    Must There Be A Section 31?

    A clandestine branch of Starfleet, authorized to undertake extreme measures. With no regards for Federation law and presumably no accountability? Or, an excuse to include a harder edge Starfleet organization. That has all the best toys, breaks all the rules, living life in the fast lane on a...

    Nemesis: Alternate Ideas

    I had several idea for Nemesis which I think would have improved the film's reception 1. What if, Nemesis was the film released in 1998, instead of INS. Star Trek still had clout during the mid to late 90s. INS is largely blamed for pouring cold water on the franchise and having nothing new to...

    Catching A Ship At Maximum Warp

    I've been thinking about how the Scimitar and Vengeance were able to catch the Enterprise in their respective movies. Both the Kelvin Ent and the Ent-E were punching it at maximum warp. Both were caught by the enemy ships and fired at, causing them to drop out of warp. Neither the Kelvin era...

    Theatrical Release Of Episodes

    Several episodes (mainly from TNG) have had one night theatrical releases in theaters. From my recollection, the episodes I have seen were Q Who, Yesterday's Enterprise, Sins of the Father and Best of Both Worlds. I want to say it was to showcase the episodes in either 3D or IMAX. Similar to...

    What If: TNG Season Seven - Captain Riker Arc

    As we all know, TNG season 7 was a huge step down from Seasons 3-6. Attributed to many of the writers of TNG moving on to DS9 and the powers that be seemingly running out of ideas. What if though, they gave season 7 an arc to inspire intrigue and bolster the creative writing. Fulfilling a...

    The Worf Effect: Nerf or Nothing

    As most of you are aware, TNG was not kind to Worf when it came to displays of combat. I found this video recently and it left me distressed. DS9 corrected most of the above wrongs, but I wanted to see if there were exaggerated on TNG. I don't have the time to go back and rewatch 178...

    The Doctor Changing History: Cause and Effects?

    I've been pondering the rules time outlined in Doctor Who and how the Doctor says he can't change history or violate the rules of time. Key episodes on my mind are: 4th Doctor: Pyramids of Mars - When the Doctor shows Sarah Jane what the world of 1980 would look like, if he didn't stop Sutekh...

    How Would You Have Handled The Borg Threat?

    Doing a rewatch of the Borg episodes, I and noticed a similar parallel regarding the Borg and the Viidians. I made a thread last year asking how you (as a starship captain) would've handled the threat posed by the Viidians...

    Busted Out Of Mothballs: Yesterdays Heroes, Today

    With the recent resurgence of classic IPs, remakes, reboots, sequels etc. We've seen a number of heroes from yesteryear make a return. With the recent debate of Luke's handling in The Last Jedi, it got me thinking. Is this a good thing and a course that should be repeated, or is it something...
