Starfleet Academy General Discussion Thread

We're romanticizing the action of opening a costume like a jacket now?
I believe they're referring to the editing/costuming trick used to try to show a uniform that defies our current garment technology.

Ro's upper uniform comes off and separates where no visible seam existed moments before.

So do a lot of Klingon variations So what?

*Description :)
 
One channel accidentally spoiled part of episode 5. I say it was an accident because they even say in the video they're going to hold on releasing that part of their interview until after Episode 5 airs, but I guess their editor didn't get the memo

Amazing! Just in case it's deleted, here's the big spoiler:
They did get Avery Brooks to record some lines for the end of E5
 
The DSC Klingons are the failed result of years of doctors and scientists trying to correct the Augment Virus. Works for my head canon and has for almost eight years.

Discovery had Klingons on it? I never saw any Klingons. Next you going to tell me Enterprise had a pilot character. :)
 
The effect of the zipper less jacket was cool. Funny that 900 years later they go back to old fashioned zippers.

Easier to synthesize or later replicate?

My head cannon is that replicating almost anything the size of a plate of food, etc, requires a equivalent yield as the Hiroshima bomb.

Zero Scarcity means that they do not care about efficiency or waste.

If replicating a plate of food cost anything less than "Little Boy" to render, then replicator rationing on Voyager didn't make a lick of sense.
 
Fashion is cyclical.

When the toga comes back into fashion let me know.

Seemed pretty easy.
 
I see togas sometimes, but see cloaks far more often. Plus kilts right now a lot.

This is an extreme nonissue. It's clothes. This isn't a fashion show.

Its not a non issue to me. Facts are the other 23rd and 24th century shows at least put in an effort to show us original costumes showing civilian clothing of the future. That meant no or nearly no 20th century buttons or zippers. Now they show them all the time. Its laziness, cheap and not a good costume department. The clothing of the Berman era looked more futuristic than what kurtzman is giving us.


Next thing that really bugs me is 20th/21st century slang in the 32nd cebtury. Sigh.

Humans have been using buttons in clothing for 5,000 years. chances are we'll still be using them in another 5,000.

Also why are you worried about 21st century slang and not the fact that Starships make sounds in a vacuum.
