Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 1x06 - "The Impossible Box"
- Thread starter Commander Richard
- Start date
Hmmm... to spoil or not to spoil? Probably better not to.
I think the concept of having robots, or droids as they're called in the Star Wars universe, with personalities is a marvel of achievement in its own right.
Calm down. No one's making fun of you. I didn't know until right then that you’d never seen Star Wars. People can't be expected to know if a poster hasn't seen a movie that's been part of the cultural zeitgeist for four decades. Absolutely, there are people out there who haven't but particularly on a sci-fi board, the chance that one would run into someone who hasn't is fairly slim. Still, you have not. Knowing that, I will drop it here.
Besides, this is the Picard forum. Should you get a chance, watch the original movies and we'd love to have your thoughts in the Star Wars forum.

3PO is supposed to be inoffensive for multiple alien species. He is to be nonthreatening. He is awkward because the movies pretty much are not what he was built for.
Who said it was a crime? O_o

Just watch the original three. One, they are groundbreaking in terms of cinema. Two, its a lot of fun. Three you might be surprised.Yes, I am probably the only guy who's seen everything Star Trek ( the non-fanfic kind at least) and nothing Star Wars. But I plan to remedy that sooner or later. I just need to talk myself into it.
That was a joke.
I'd say that there's a high probability that the top expert on any subject in the Federation is a genius.
No one. Of course.
It's a TV show, stranger things have happened. They aren't beholded to the 21st Century time frame for education. She very well might be a genius or people are just supersmart in the future. The novel has her an MD who switched to. cybernetics after meeting Maddox. We've no idea how old she is. The actress is in her thirties but the character might be older. She was working with Maddox on syths 14+ years prior, we can assume it wasn't as a teenager.
I know. I laughed on the inside like a Vulcan and then used it to make a serious point. It's called the "Dwight Schrute Maneuver."

We are creatures of duty and watching Star Wars so we may ridicule it to prove our superiority as nerds and geeks is a prime one. You are reduced two steps in rank!
Let's make it characters from each series. Hugh, 7 of 9, and how about Garek, Lorca from the Prime Universe, agent Daniels and Admiral Sulu?
Since 1994 or 95 I believe.
We've never met Lorca from the prime universe.
Which makes perfect sense to have him here. He could have ended up in the future due to the mycelial network.
that's MUDD to you!I know. I laughed on the inside like a Vulcan and then used it to make a serious point. It's called the "Dwight Schrute Maneuver."
I have the sudden urge to be on a beach sipping jippers.
MD/PhDs are not that uncommon. MDs require no thesis, or a very small one, and are equivalent to master's degrees. There are hundreds of MD/PhDs out there in our time.
No kidding.e
Farscape must have been rough on you...
