Spoilers Star Trek: Discovery 2x13 - "Such Sweet Sorrow"

[IMC Headquarters]

Yeah, and then there's that city in the clouds...

Spock could use the Jedi mind trick to good effect in getting the Yang woman to call the ship...

He's also a bit Sith the way he persuades Kirk and company that "Edith Keeler must die. Kill Gary Mitchell. Open the airlock, Michael. Shoot it Doctor! Do it!!!"

And even then laser swords were not a new thing.

Dunno about no laser swords, but electro-swords appeared in several episodes of the old Rocket Robin Hood animated series (anybody else here remember that?!?)

I guess Doc Mugatu forgot that Spock could feel Vulcan's dying from light years away 9 years before Obi Wan could do the same trick with the people of Alderaan. ...

I forget nothing my young Padwan (except where I left my car keys at from time to time). My point was that ST: Discovery had greatly expanded upon the psychic power and connectiveness of the Vulcans. 400 Vulcans in a moment of extreme stress creating a psychic pulse that Spock could "feel" was a bit different, even "muted", in terms of what Discovery gave us.

Hey, you folks mentioned my name 3 times!

Oh, yes. And I wonder why we aren't getting a live action reboot or RRH like we deserve.

Vulcan powers are very much inconsistent. You have the ability to transfer their living spirit to another person or object (the katric ark), you have the ability to create weapons with it (the Stone of Gol) as well as psychic projection of thoughts (Spock with the woman on the Yang planet).

And they all have the power of looking like they just stepped in dogshit when they talk to you...

Thank god for Spock's humanity!

That's because Disney hasn't found that property yet so it can milk it.

 

[hbquikcomjamesl]

Probably too violent for Disney.

Marvel movies anyone? they are pretty violent

Let's not forget that RRH did sort of crossover with Spiderman at one point as they both paid a visit to Dementia 5. Not sure who actually owns the rights to RRH, as the productions companies are long gone, one of which was Canadian.

 

[Gingerbread Demon]

Then again do we really want to give Disney new ideas to milk?

Yes.
