Spoilers Star Trek: Picard 3x08 - "Surrender"

[Tuskin38]

I think it would be really stupid for a destroyed ship to show up.

Well they already had the Saratoga at the fleet museum and it was destroyed.

If it looks like a Duck, quacks like a duck, and we are told it is a duck I'm not going to sit there and go "Well, technically the original D was destroyed and so only parts of it are genuine."

The intention is there and call me shallow but I think that's good enough for the story being told. The rest is technicalities.

Without the saucer the D looks a little like a duck.

Enterprise D-seus.

Sorry. I’m sorrry… Alright already… I’m going!








WANT.

Three engines on that new star drive.

Three engines on that new star drive.

Enterprise 3D-seus.

I’ll really stop now.











FUCKING WANT!

I NCC what you did there.

 

[Enterprise1701]

Don’t take things so personal.

Take your own advice.

Take your own advice.

Only if you take it too.

...Also surely the Borg should be more p*ssed at Janeway, not Picard.

Janeway wasn't an Ex that tried to kill the Queen.

PIcard/Locutus was.

Mmmmmm. That's my jam right there.

Yeah my mom loves that show. I don't like it.

There have been posters here in the past that like to make threads all about themselves, but this guy takes the cake. Stop giving him the attention that he's so obviously and desperately craving.

Please don't feed the trolls! It just encourages them.

He's also won Hugo and Nebula awards.

They probably should have hired him to do something completely new with Star Trek. Even though originally Stewart had zero interest in revisiting TNG, that's what the fans wanted, so anything that wasn't Season 8 was doomed to be complained about on the internet.

Season 3 in a nutshell. I'm an old school TOS guy, so reuniting the TNG crew doesn't have the same impact for me, so I still see a lot of the same issues from S1/2 occuring this season.

I felt the same about episodes 7-8 and 2-3-4, there was a lot of redundant farting around in that nebula.

Then oddly enough, episode six feels unnecessarily crammed together, I think it would have worked better expanded into two episodes.

Honestly, they could have destroyed Vadik and the Shrike in the nebula, moved some of the character development beats from a condensed two episode 2-3-4 into a museum/Daystrom two-parter, as well as uncover what they did to Picard, the modified Changeling origin and the Data/Lore stuff in those episodes. This would tighten things considerably, and more importantly an eight episode season would have freed up a bunch of budget. Money that could have been spent to get off of Titan and have some location shooting by making Daystrom a planetside base or something.


At this point, they all feel like they're playing themselves, which I'm actually ok with. Of all the Trek casts, the TNG crew seems like they get along the best with each other, but that chemistry rarely came through on screen until this season.


Yeah, their whole affair should have been left in the "running out of ideas towards the end of a series' seventh season" dustbin next to Chakotay/Seven's.

Chabon made the difference for me I think. Season 3 just doesn't quite reach that level of influence or writing. It really wants to club you over the head by comparison. Not much subtlety.

Jesus wept. Good lord. Are you on drugs?

Still making friends and influencing people? But hey, at least you won't have had the shortest stay here.
