Spoilers Star Trek: Discovery 3x07 - "Unification III"

[Midquest]

i thought it was their equivalent of the aurora borealis!

That was my impression. It definitely looks like an aurora.

 

[TRON JA307020]

Hmm. Between you and the guy who wrote the scene, who am I to believe?

BTW, you still have not explained why people should not have been rending their clothes over the lack of an explanation for 20+ years.

rending their clothes? What does that even mean? Lol

 

[Bad Thoughts]

rending their clothes? What does that even mean? Lol

Really?

to tear (one's garments or hair) in grief, rage, etc.

 

[Discofan]

I wonder if Spock's biography mentions that he disappeared in what used to be called a black hole...

 

[Nerys Myk]

Really?

Sad commentary on the American education system, isn't it?

That being said, she comes across as surprisingly emotional for somebody socialised on Vulcan.

Why is anyone surprised that a human forced to supress their emotions as a child is now overly emotional as an adult? In real life emotional supression is terrible for humans and its not uncommon for children who are forced to supress a part of their emotional range to act out later in life.

I like Discovery and Enterprise. I am a pariah on this site.

Huh? Sez who?

 

[TRON JA307020]

Really?

I know what the word means. What does it have to do with Star Trek. Lol

 

[Gingerbread Demon]

I have a sinking feeling, given some of the creative choices so far, that origin of the burn will turn out to be some ridiculous mash-up of the remnants of Control and the future AI from Picard.

I really hope they don't do this but...

I don't think they are going to go there. The only AI we have now are Federation holos and Discovery's computer.

Oh and Enterprise rocks. It was great

She also: flat Earthers, climate change deniers and anti-maskers.

Really? People who are skeptical about masks and climate change based upon research are to be included with flat Earthers?

Wow...

 

[Turtletrekker]

Really? People who are skeptical about masks and climate change based upon research are to be included with flat Earthers?

Wow...

Yup.

Actually, even more so. Flat earthers are harmless. Anti-maskers are dangerous and are responsible for more deaths than any terrorist group could ever be.

Here we go...

 

[Nerys Myk]

I know what the word means. What does it have to do with Star Trek. Lol

An apt analogy to the sort of whining fans go through when faced with the slightest change to Star Trek.

 

[cooleddie74]

In other words: an analogy. Because analogies can fit anything.

 

[Nerys Myk]

Trek would be lost with out them. Not literally lost though, Pubert.

 

[cooleddie74]

Damn sensors. They always go down when you least expect it.

That wasn't meant to sound dirty. *



*Yes it was

Nerys Myk has it.

I was shocked in 1979 by the new look Klingons. It took me perhaps a week to get over it. I didn't need a "canon" explanation or to be told something was retconned. By the time I got the STTMP fotonovel, I didn't care.

I was nine years old.

For almost 25 years there was no explanation. People grumbled. People laughed. People theorized. No one said that there was a lack of respect for the fans.

 

[CorporalClegg]

The explanation was silly and entirely unnecessary.
