Spoilers Strange New Worlds General Discussion Thread

[Lord Garth]

Ok I took a pic. I had to crop it and blur some people out to protect the crew. Maybe ill post the bottom half in the near future. Feel free to rant about how you hate it and its the end of the world etc... But I love it.

This looks like a pretty faithful update.

 

[cooleddie74]

I like the colors a LOT more than I like the DSC transporter rooms.

 

[Lord Garth]

DSC might end up being Pete Best if its not careful.

Is this another Beatles reference?

Don't shoot, but all these Beatles references are lost on me.

 

[cooleddie74]

My Space Hippie guitar gently weeps.

 

[Mudd]

Yeah, somehow that doesn't look like "a nightmare of color..."

And I love it. It looks fantastic.

 

[cooleddie74]

All the green and grey/silver is easy on my eyes.

Thankfully the description that generated the image in my mind and what was shown did not line up.

 

[garakvsneelix]

Doable but yeah it definitely stands out.

Well, at my best good-willing-days, also the way the showed Section 31 in DSC, is 'doable', but they lost me, when they introduced something like a headquarter of the organisation. DS9's section 31 always seemed clever enough not to have something like an own station, that even captains like Pike know about... for me, it was always much too 'public' for the idea of Section 31...

But who knows? Maybe, 'Strange new world' will help me, to throw together these two different kinds of Section 31 in my head with a 'story bridge' between DSC and DS9...

I mean, 100+ years is more than enough for me to iron it out.

That's good for you

 

[Mudd]

What the hell does Section 31 have to do with SNW?

Thankfully the description that generated the image in my mind and what was shown did not line up.

This is usually the case for almost anyone.

 

[cooleddie74]

I'm still trying to figure out what Section 31 has to do with the working concept for a weekly series.

It's all good.

 

[CorporalClegg]

Nothing would turn me off to SNW faster than Section 31.

 

[fireproof78]

It doesn't. And no doubt it will not factor in to this series at all. I was speaking more generally of SNW fitting in with TOS in terms of continuity. Then S31 came up specifically. And here we are.

 

[GNDN18]

Wrap it up. I’ll take it.

 

[cooleddie74]

It's practically the same size as the TOS transporter pad. I approve.

 

[Jack Wolfe]

Yeah, "Beetle" and "Golf."

Beetle, Rabbit, and Golf. Don't disrespect the Bunny.

 

[UssGlenn]

I wonder if the original TOS floor pads made it into the ceiling? They were used on the TNG and Voyager sets. I never heard what happened to them.

 

[137th Gebirg]

Was thinking the same thing. Based on that photo, though, probably not. I think they were flatter and thinner than that, unless they made it back to the floor.
