Billingslea's character has been identified as "Stomm."
STC Episode 7 (News and speculation)....
- Thread starter BoredShipCapt'n
- Start date
Hmm. That sounds a lot like Stonn from "Amok Time." Maybe they should have given the name more thought to more clearly distinguish between the two.
No problem, they can just make sure to have his name spoken by four characters every time and then have them break into barbershop harmonies on the "mm."
"Embracing the Winds" will premiere at Salt Lake Comic Con. That takes place September 1-3.
Well now we have a date and title to EP7
Yeah, but what else would you have called that one?The title was actually revealed awhile ago.
I must say I generally like STC's episode titles. They seem to fit in with TOS' general leaning to literary or poetic sounding titles, "Spock's Brain" notwithstanding.
"The Controller" easily comes to mind. Not much really, but it's an improvement.Yeah, but what else would you have called that one?
But improving "Spock's Brain" is like wearing a tuxedo to your favorite greasy spoon. The bad title fits!
Maybe "Pain and Delight."
Much like the experience of watching the episode!
Maybe they gave it plenty of thought and decided that like Sarek and Surak, Vulcan names sound a lot alike and it's just part of the texture of their culture.
That's a good point. In real life, there are many similar-sounding names. It's like telling someone not to name their daughter Christina just because the neighbor's kid is named Christine.
Their neighbor's kid, their brother's kid, etc. I went to high school with a pair of first cousins, daughters of brothers, who were both named Kirsten(the other Kirstin). My dad has cousins, sons of his mother's brothers, that are both named Charles. Names get repeated a lot, in variety of different settings.
I would've gone with "The Givers of Pain and Delight."
Maybe that'll rope in some new fans from the Buffy base.
Yeah, they had Jamie Bamber from Battlestar Galactica in their first one.
