What's in YOUR 'head canon'?

[SolarisOne]

For me it's most of the post-Nemesis litverse continuity, plus a lot of the Rihannsu series (I absolutely refuse to accept Ael t'Rllaillieu not being canon.)

As far as I'm concerned, Nemesis itself happened, but with details about Romulus/Remus brought in line with the latter series. The "Remans" we see in the movie are actually bioengineered Romulans or some such (probably to figure out how to regain latent Vulcanoid telepathic abilities--like they tried to do in My Enemy, My Ally--among other things). Remus (ch'Havran) used to be Class-M like Romulus (ch'Rihan), but an ecological disaster turned it into the hell Shinzon experienced.

Also, a considerable portion of New Frontier is canon. Certainly all of the characters exist, especially Calhoun. (Although I like the United Trek's take on Shelby more than New Frontier's version.)

As for what's not in my continuity--The Final Frontier, TMP, TAS, Kelvinverse (Spock is dead and the Romulan homeworld is gone, but there was no time travel involved), and the events of Discovery after the Battle of the Binary Stars (the DSC novels that have been published so far ARE, however, canon to me.) NOTE: The DSC characters exist (especially Georgiou, Lorca, and Saru) but in a world quite different than that of the show.

That the events in the last Enterprise episode are a lie by Section 31 and the novel, The Good that Men Do is the true story.

My head canon is TOS, TAS as well because those cartoons were start of a new five year mission with Kirk and crew IMO. TOS movies despite TMP, TSFS, and TFF were utter crap. TNG is a great series and watching episodes never gets old. DS9 first 3 seasons are in my continuity, and JJ Abrams' Star Trek, and Into Darkness is because Spock left TOS universe into that new universe.

What's not in my continuity are TNG Movies because none those films make any sense and alters characterization of Picard and The Borg. DISCO because everything seen doesn't resemble anything from TOS (Ship designs, uniforms, production designs, common aliens in the mythos). ENT because felt more directed to the film "First Contact" than TOS and it had this compulsion to trump Kirk in every classic moment he and TOS crew had done. DS9 4th - 7th season, it's not the series I once loved.

Damn. You’re more picky than me.

The reason the Enterprise was refit (and other supposed refits at the time) instead of a new build was due to treaty agreement with the Klingons limiting the size of the fleet and spec types. Much like arms treaties and arms reduction talks/agreements from the 20th and 21st centuries limit the number and type of nuclear missiles. Building new ships/increasing the size of the fleet would violate treaty. Starfleet "refit" a number of ships to get around this limitation.

That's a friggin' good one!
I'll take it.

 

[thribs]

I thought the Enterprise was refitted was because some admiral wanted their time travel engines.

For Q, presumably the 18 who died were not personal (a "needs of the many" thing). Singling out Picard's family to hurt him would be.

 

[thribs]

That the Borg were finally defeated in 2381.
About time too.

 

[Tenacity]

For Q, presumably the 18 who died were not personal

So if Q were to push 18 random people in front of a fast moving bus (which essentually he did), that would not be "personal?"

Difference between murder one and murder two?

 

[dswynne1]

In my mind, all the characters exist, and the timelines from canon, fanon, and gaming exist at the same time, though not in the right order...

 

[Shawnster]

The 4 Kzinti Wars were minor border wars that didn't last long. The last one occurring just after the formation of the Federation but was still considered an Earth war because the nature of the fledgling Federation prohibited a united coalition response to what amounted to a minor border conflict.

 

[Voth commando1]

Regarding the Q-they did execute Amanda Q's parents. While Q himself didn't perform the deed, he was willing to kill Amanda if she wasn't fully Q-so I wouldn't say Q is incapable or unwilling to kill people.

 

[johnnybear]

TOS definitely TAS TMP and the movies even though I'm not keen as the actors seem to be trying to hard and TUC is the only one that fits in with the TOS style! TNG, DS9 and VOY and finally the Kelvin Universe! ENT I never liked much because it's ridiculous to try to add things that happened before TOS and the stories apart from one or two weren't very good at all! And as for DSC that isn't even in the same reality so of course I'm not going to count that! The Kelvin continuity at least has the last few appearances of the prime Spock from TOS!

Anything Pre-JJ for sure, lol.

 

[Jedi Marso]

That the Borg were finally defeated in 2381.
About time too.

Was that from the novel that tied the missing ENT-era Columbia to the creation of the Borg in the far past?

 

[Voth commando1]

The novel series to be exact.

Destiny is apart of my headcanon as well-the borg launched one final war against the federation and were defeated for all time in 2381.

 

[Coyote Annabis]

In DS9 S5E22 The Defiant enters the anomaly but the duplication works and the original Defiant makes it back to the station, keeping the settlement intact.

 

[Greg Cox]

THE SHAPE OF WATER is definitely the fourth film in the "Creature from the Black Lagoon" series.

Oops. Sorry. Wrong head canon.

 

[Rahul]

THE SHAPE OF WATER is definitely the fourth film in the "Creature from the Black Lagoon" series.

Oops. Sorry. Wrong head canon.

"The shape of water" is literally the blueprint for what Universal's Montster movie universe should have been! Instead of that TOm Cruise action-mummy dud...

The Star Trek universe definitely takes place in the same universe as classic Sherlock Holmes stories. Spock was not talking about Doyle when he mentioned his ancestor.

A lot of 50s era monster movies take place in the Trek universe as well. The ones that have aliens abducting humans in it are rogue alien bandits that secretly undermine the Vulcan "no contact"-policy with pre-warp civilisations.

 

[Tenacity]

That the Borg were finally defeated in 2381.

My head canon has the events of End Game destroying the collective and therefore the Borg.

All Borg drones immediately became individuals, many died from shock, or because of where they were (ship's no longer working) or through not having the means to maintain their implants.

But some survived.
