I learned this when I was buying beer, walked into a free-standing display, and somehow exploded one of the cans I was carrying. The cashier put the remaining three in a box to clean up and sell later.

That’s not a good look for Pulaski - just standing there like she’s guarding the door or waiting for an order.

Yeah, I’ve spent hundreds of hours in Daggerfall and never got far with the story, but I did figure out how to fly in the void outside the dungeons and shoot the really hard monsters with arrows! Daggerfall is so ridiculously big it probably has hundreds of towns that have only ever been visited by one obsessive kid who made a point to click on them all.

TNG had some movies (bald guy on the poster) and they were written by people who didn’t like the show for people who didn’t watch the show. You have to turn your brain off, but they’re well-directed.

LOL I’m stealing this to use as my IRL description of those films. I wish it wasn’t true, but it is.

It looks like they also made it look Roman as a reference to Bread and Circuses.

The arrangement of the music in the restaurant felt more TMP than TNG.

Yeah, it translates them so closely that phasers act like depth charges and there’s one part where both crews are trying to be quiet for some reason. It’s a a brilliant episode, but that part was really jarring on my last rewatch with a friend.

The GotY version of Morrowind feels less buggy than the original release. For example, some older PC versions frequently crashed because of some pointer error in the UI. The game detected this and created crash-recovery savegames like what MS Office does for your documents.

Because there aren’t a lot of Kelseys on TV in the USA. Same reason I get a weird vibe about characters like Liam Shaw. (After the events of PIC season 3 I still think he’s punchable.) … Firefox doesn’t think punchable is a word. Firefox is wrong.

CBS killed it, but some (all?) of them are working with OTOY and the Roddenberry Archive now. They had a site up a few months ago where you could walk around the bridge of nearly every iteration of every Enterprise. There were about 30 of them, including speculative designs for some early concepts for the Enterprise.

They haven’t said anything about making a full-scale Ent-D yet, but several of their videos on YouTube show glimpses of a full-scale 1701 refit.

Musicals aren’t my favourite thing, but sometimes they’re awesome. If any Trek can pull off musical it’s SNW.

I hope it gives everyone something to do. Most of the time Star Trek is best when it’s an ensemble show. This is one of the reasons episodes like Cause and Effect are my favourites: everyone works to solve a problem. That’s the future, or at least the work environment I want.

The episode where Cisco [sic] plays a 20th century sci-fi writer is Emmy-worthy. I haven’t seen much DS9, but if it’s all that good I’m missing out.

It’s not all that good (a few are pretty bad even), but there’s a lot of excellent TV in DS9.

Modern TV is so expensive to make that a flashy show like SNW is doing well if it can average ten episodes per year. On that basis alone I want them to do new stories. I wish they would lean a little less on TOS sometimes too. Maybe then they’d have time to write some scenes for Ortegas.

Picking out all the continuity issues in season one of TOS makes a fun drinking game. Balance of Terror also had the crews of both ships whispering like they were worried they could hear each other. lol

Some of the continuity changes, especially to the characters, feel like improvements to me. Chapel and T’Pring are far more interesting in SNW. They don’t just feel like walking tropes as they usually did in TOS.

Speaking of design, I like what they did with the sound in DIS and SNW. They hail someone and it starts with the TOS sound and ends with the TNG sound. They have lots of sounds blended from the different eras and it works surprisingly well.

Why didn’t you use the way they spoke in the film?

Valeris: “A lie?”

Spock: “An exaggeration.”

The Picard issue feels like most of what I hear online about it. I suspect in a few years the consensus on season 3 of Picard will have changed.
