What are your controversial Star Trek opinions?

[Tallguy]

Which is why no Legacy series is so sad. The show that would have United fandom in universal love and it looks like it will never happen.

So nothing like Picard 3, then?

Don't let facts get in the way of a poor joke

Or a brilliant one…

Apparently I'm was so brilliant it showed up in Star Wars Outlaws.

Then somewhere along the way, the writers discover they've painted themselves in a corner with that narrative and slowly try to back-peddle

backPEDAL, as in go backwards

backPEDAL, as in go backwards

Thank you. Now I don't have to do it.

Stormtroopers spent half of ANH being stone cold killers. It wasn't until Luke, Leia, Han and Chewie had to run from them and evade squads that their "bad aim" became a recurring theme. I mean, look what they did to the Jawas, Owen and Beru and earlier in the film inflicted upon the Rebel crew on the Tantive IV. Piles of dead bodies.

It actually started at the Mos Eisley Space port. Whole squad couldn't get the jump on a simple freighter captain.

 

[cooleddie74]

Fair point.

When Star Trek adapts and pays homage to prior Star Trek... the dog chases its own tail and becomes a xerox of a xerox of a xerox.

Which is exactly why I hated Picard S3.

My interest in a Star Trek: Legacy series from Terry Matalas is pretty much nil.

Yes.

Star Trek is a science fiction shoe that looks toward the future, so I wish they'd stop returning to the past.

So what I'm hearing you say is you want the Empire to win

Yes.

I like my sci-fi shoes. Automatic laces and fitting.

 

[Nerys Myk]

Yes.

Two things that aren't contradictory. One can look to the future at any point in Star Trek's "history".

 

[Jayson1]

Interesting enough though Picard season 3 is the one Trek show set in the future past all the other Trek shows, except for Discovery seasons 3,4 and 5 but of course those don't count since Lower Decks removed them from canon.

Nice try.

Canon removal rejected.

 

[Farscape One]

As much as I'd like DISCO to not be canon, I'm sorry to say it is. Even seasons 3-5.

However... it is entirely possible that that timeline of those 3 seasons could end up being completely deleted. Like the future that was seen in VOY's "ENDGAME".

For whatever it’s worth, DSC and SNW are canon for me, but I treat them as a separate offshoot like Marvel/Marvel Ultimates.

I know it’s not the right way to do it (ie: the official Paramount line) and I’d never dictate to someone that that is what it is, but it helps me to make sense of it all.

I don’t say that to lessen either show in any way. It just helps my brain to deal with it all.

 

[Turtletrekker]

If I had to remove one show from canon it would probably randomly be either Enterprise, Voyager or Picard depending upon the day of the week you asked me and my mood at the time.

 

[fireproof78]

I don't see the need to treat them as perfectly interconnected.

 

[Turtletrekker]

There's no "need". It's just fun. At least for some people. People who like fun.
