Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 1x04 - "Memento Mori"
- Thread starter Commander Richard
- Start date
It's a deep cut joke, if you get it you have my respect.
looks very clear to me. And how do you sort things, also? With this method everything is sorted automatically.
I sort by month or by specific event.
By month? All events taking place in April, any year?
Many of my events are similar, so I would easily mix them up if I went by event.

You speak Vulcanian? (Obviously it was a UT glitch/error)Spock said phenomenons. The correct word is phenomena
(How can you be a writer and not know that...)
Month then year. Usually alphabetized by month name.
Sounds really hard to find anything…but well, if it works for you…
Most of my life is defined by people not specific dates or events.

This bugged me too. I mean, it isn't that just the writer got it wrong. Peck didn't know. The director didn't know. No one on the whole damn set knew. And then I had to hear it again in the previouslies for Ep. 5.

Not the first time. Years ago there was a Star Trek videogame of some kind. Don't remember what it was, but what sticks with me about it is that a ship was named "USS Leyte Gulf," and every voice actor pronounced Leyte as "late." How do they end up using the name of a WW2 battle for a Starfleet ship -- kind of questionable in the first place -- without knowing how to pronounce "Leyte"? They weren't even good WW2 fans. Never got past the demo on that one. And yes, the USN did name a ship after that battle, which technically makes it OK for a Starfleet ship based on previous names. But that ship wasn't famous or important.
I suppose being able to bitch about Trek for hours while still watching every bit of it makes me a true fan.
Edit: and it just keeps happening. Eye-Chaya? (ragequit)

I'm a bit behind. Other than I can't abide by the Noonien-Singh-character and that Kirk had never et al had never heard about the Gorn before being told by the Metrons they were called the Gorns, this was a solid and very clever episode! I'm feeling generous so 10/10.
How do you pronounce it?
“lay•tay”
Ok then.
While finally reading the thread, someone pointed out that they took some beats from "Aliens", and that they named theire version of Newt, Fig. I have not seen one comment on the internet yet drawing the connection .... between a FIG NEWTon. Heh.
Yup. It started out with so much potential.
I still wish we had actually just gotten "Genesis II / Planet Earth" as a series.
The fanwank to implement it as a prequel to Trek would have been glorious.
