Is Trek ready for some nudity ?

Would love to have seen Nichelle Nichols back in the day. Marina Syrtis back in the day. Nekkid Orion Slave Chickage...

Men are different. How frequently we get laid has nothing to do with it. We still need to see naked women. As often as possible. Trust me on this.
 
Absolutely true dat. You can have an SO, she can be drop dead gorgeous and you would NEVER cheat on her. But some eye candy rolls your way, in a still or motion picture depiction, or you catch a glimpse of some IRL, it's always a thrill.

It's a guy thing.

I agree with Mr Cogley over here 100%.

YES! (Only women though).

:rolleyes:

Surely you are not serious.

Yes. Yes I am. And don't call me Surely!

I am a man who likes women. Why would I want to see naked men? If you want to see naked men, then so be it. I don't.

Naked Women! :drool:

cardinal biggles agrees! :)

Oh, wait, wrong message board...


Seriously, though, I wouldn't have a problem with tasteful nudity in Trek. This constant bitching about "the family hour" and the need to make it safe for the kiddies makes us look like a bunch of conservative prudes, and probably only reinforces the image that Trek fans are a bunch of virgins living in the basement. TOS had about as much sex as you could get away with on network TV in the late 60s, and it did so in a mature fashion, which is better than can be said for the spinoffs.

Hopefully the fact that Abrams & co. are such big fans of TOS means we'll see sex dealt with maturely, not something for fanboys to giggle over while they're whipping skippy.

Actually, I'm more a fan of how things were handled in the days of Hollywood censorship. Writers and directors were frequently trying to push the envelope in creative ways, and often managed to include things that could be understood on multiple levels: One for the kids and censors, and another for the adults. There's nothing wrong with subtlety.

Speak for yourself. :thumbsup:
 
This is like asking "Is Trek ready for some pretty scenery?" Of course it's ready. But does the story need it?

What was that whole thing in Enterprise, anyway, except needless exploitation of Jolene Blalock?

Well, okay, perhaps not needless.

um,yeah

they showed her little chubby in her boxer shorts in that decontamination thingie in the first episode, wasn't it?

Oh wait...I forgot...maybe it was connor trineer's?

Just imagine how much more popular by genre babe of the week threads would be if I could include not-safe-for-work pics? :)

Hmmm... isn't there a nipple slip somewhere in TOS? I forget.

I'm much more interested in whether I'll get a good story, than whether some young hottie will strip. If I want that, there are 1,000,000 sites online that will give nudity.
Including some that cater specifically to Star Trek fans! :cardie:

^ Well my point was that that the poster made a point of saying 'only women though'.

As if it's okay to make us girls sit through T&A...but not even throw us a....erm.....bone. :D

But then, I'm the one who is still hoping that they find a way to work in Jamie Bamber in a towel, so what do I know? :p

If that's the price we must pay for Uhura to get them out for the lads, so be it.

You're my kinda guy! :thumbsup:

And trust me...there is not a movie yet MADE which cannot be improved by the inclusion of Jamie Bamber in a towel. :p

I'll agree to Bamber in a towel for five minutes if we can get Saldana in no towel for one minute.

Is that fair?
