Spoilers Starship Design in Star Trek: Picard

I don't mind the beard guy, but the other one isn't even trying not to mumble and jump from quiet to loud every single word

 

And I'm sorry, anyone with the ego to self identity as "The Captain".....ugh. What's worse is when actual members of the Trek creative staff give them the time of day. It just feeds their pretentiousness.

 

The brit at the very least is a decent CG artist. The beard one seems to base his entire life around being "Captain Foley".

 

Jez people. Lay off them. They are just two guys who enjoy discussing starships. We are doing the same thing here but seem to be able to do it without picking each other apart. Getting called out or made fun of for liking and discussing Star Trek on a Star Trek BBS board is weird.

Heh! have to check that one out.

 

Um, you must have missed several recent threads.

And I've been teased by Trek fans for decades now for liking TOS. Sadly, built in to my Trek fan experience.

 

I just get teased for liking Star Trek period. Live and let live.

 

What? The whole Gorn thing wasn't enough proof for them? SCNR

 

Yes, the geek tendancy to punch down on other geeks nerding out about Starships in a *checks notes* 400-page thread about Starships never ceases to amaze me.

 

Yeah, you must've missed the part on last nights stream where he wished death upon Kurtzman. Had to shut it off at that point. That was too much for my morbid sense of curiosity.

 

Yeah, that's grounds for skipping their channel permanently, I think.

 

Tuned those two out long ago. They are not worth my time.

 

Dave Blass has started posting ship info for episode 6

I like the nod to Doug Trumbull.

 

Hmm, the Sternbach and Cole are actually labelled Farragut and Copernicus. And didn‘t somebody here identify the Excelsior II as USS Excelsior rather than USS Mestral?
I‘m generally glad that we get this sort of information, but I‘m starting to have doubts about their veracity.

 

Ok seems he posted new pics with fixed ship names.

 

Really?

 

Yep.

These people are monetizing their personal hobby horses. If someone wants to sell their opinions there's no reason observers should withhold their own.

 

Sternbach should have been a ship he designed, an intrepid comes to mind

I have no problem with people voiceing there opinion, but when you start wishing harm or death on somebody, thats crossing a line.
Never watched them anyways. Did do some business with them, but were a bit jerky about it. owell

 

IIRC he's usually drunk.
