Retard.
vulcans look like that?
Bill Shatner edition
Tell Valley to shut the fuck up and stop asking to cutely "make new thread" when we're not near bump limit. I just do what I'm told.
The butt, behind, bum, backside, or ass was the part of the body on which a lifeform sat upon, situated at the end of their back and, in bipeds, above the legs, and in quadrupeds, above the rear legs.
Captain Jonathan Archer noted that he didn't recruit his tactical officer to sit on his butt when he's threatened, replying to Trip Tucker's comment that Malcolm Reed wouldn't be that reckless to risk the lives of the landing party following a threat by the Andorian Commander Thy'lek Shran in 2151. (ENT: "The Andorian Incident")
When The Doctor was testing his new program that made him able to daydream, he imagined Tuvok becoming destructive due to pon farr and himself singing to Tom Paris, instructing him to load a hypospray and "aim for [Tuvok's] behind" when given a signal by the doctor. (VOY: "Tinker Tenor Doctor Spy")
While drunk on bourbon, Malcolm Reed stated that T'Pol had a "nice bum". (ENT: "Shuttlepod One")
In slang, to "kick someone's butt" meant to defeat them and to "save someone's butt" meant to rescue them. (DS9: "Rivals"; VOY: "Caretaker")
When Dukat accidentally sat on a sand spine, it ended up stuck in his behind and Kira Nerys had to pull it out. (DS9: "Indiscretion")
>blaming your stupidity on a tripfag
Weak and gay.
*a tripfag who should be entirely shunned in the first place
Imagine being Connor in that scene and having to be all like "damn, Jolene Blalock, you fuckin' fine, all sexy with your tight body and horrific botched boob job. I would totally have sex with you, both my character and the real me." when all he really wants to do is fuck another 16 year old in his dressing room. Like seriously imagine having to be Connor and not only stand shirtless while Jolene Blalock flaunts her bulimic body in front of you, the favorable lighting barely concealing her cut marks and veiny skin, and just stand there, take after take, hour after hour, while she perfected that strip. Not only having to tolerate her monstrous fucking visage but her haughty attitude as everyone on set tells her she's STILL GOT IT and DAMN, JOLENE BLALOCK LOOKS LIKE THAT?? because they're not the ones who have to stand there and watch her plastic fucking botox face contort into types of grimaces you didn't even know existed before that day. You've been fucking nothing but a healthy diet of blondes and supermodels and later alleged rape victims for your ENTIRE CAREER coming straight out of the boonies in Washington state. You've never even seen anything this fucking disgusting before, and now you swear you can taste the sweat that's breaking out on her dimpled stomach as she sucks it in to writhe it suggestively at you, smugly assured that you are enjoying the opportunity to get paid to stand there and revel in her "statuesque (for that is what she calls herself)" beauty, the beauty she worked so hard for with plastic surgeons in the previous months. And then the director calls for another take, and you know you could kill every single person in this room before the studio security could put you down, but you stand there and endure, because you're George fucking W. Bush You're not going to lose your future political career over this. Just bear it. Hide your face and bear it.
Reed became my favorite character when he said On the toilet the farting sickness leaped into our anuses, spurting and shitting in the hershey morning, turds in our throats. Most of the anus forms dried there in the humid fumes, big brown eye in "my butthole" brought the sickness from brown smell caves melting in my ass to hatch in the steaming turd lands shitting song of brown bursts in fart flesh, beyond the toilet, poo drains slope down to a dark brown dump and the ass-wind on each other, came to a sewer fed by greasy diarrhea. and slurped in shit heaps, sick butt shitting turd laugh, sound bubbling in anuses torn with the fart sickness, balls and asses covered with fart foam, asshole hair thru the bruised bowel flesh, sick shits twisting thru stomach, hot-tub music bubbling in butt baths, human assholes tentative squirt in and out of toilets. We waded into the soupy shit-water, anus hair and flesh off in screaming shits, stood bleeding anuses dripping with phosphorescent red-brown juices, soft tentative guts cut with anus wounds, ripping other hemorrhoids, teeth and tongues burping up the stink supper, nose melting pleasure smells in the warm poop. till our butts went and a brown wind of silence tickled ass cracks and cheeks. When we came out of the poop we had boners.
8/10, a rare BF banger.
You really suck at discerning posters.

Was he a cuck boys?
were you?
So classic Enterprise bridge tonight on Discovery.
I like it.
To act in the name of justice with the legal authority to arrest and enforce local laws and statutes is not noble, it's just another job.
It's good
I think I can notice a couple of characters between the 700 glares of light.
Last bump for life support.
Trek generals are always a mess bro just roll with it
Looks x1000 better than the JJ verse bridge.
>Assholes are always a mess during rape just roll with it
Problematic if actionable
but STD is JJverse -25%
stfu moron.
That actually looks great
needs more perfect star trek gfs
>still that stupid reflective black floor, dark lighting, and chrome everywhere
Who started this meme aesthetic that's in everything sci-fi now?
JJ, he had to get his lens flare fix somewhere else and is also a fucking hack.
But JewJew had the lights turned up to blinding levels. STD turns all the lights off except for a handful of spotlights.
Ugly and soulless. Zoomer aesthetics are shit.
why do people always say this?
when DO they think the last time star trek was "fun"? they usually say TOS
He was an incel
Star Trek: First Contact
Well /trek/ I'll say it if no one else will. We haven't had the memes like we needed this spring. It's going to be a hard, dry summer. *spits at the dry dirt* We won't be able to keep the farm if we have many more seasons like this...
>I talk a big game, but you know what? Fuck honor.
You think it's time to see about turning this farm into a shopping mall, Papa?
>carpeting, not a shiny black floor
>beige, not chrome
I'm not really seeing it.
is that tomacco?
Shut the fuck up you underage reddit shitter.
Boy, this is going to be a hard lesson but you need to learn it well: all good things must come to an end...
Mods, I think it's finally time. Time to shut /trek/ down for good. Time to make some room in the Yea Forums afterlife next to /got/.
looks at the dumb mother fucker kneeling on his crop. that's gonna cost him a few cents
Can a /trek/ autist explain to me when Julian was replaced by the Changeling?
fuck you
Some time before the events of DS9: Rapture.
eat it bich
It's time to pay your respects.
in down bad bruh
He's not a real farmer, just a paid model. He doesn't even love crops.
>Sulu laughs
>Shatner flubs every take because he can't stand Takei having a scene about him
I like Rebecca Romjin's Number One ass.
>tfw no smug Bajoran gf
I would give anything to have a sexy aggressive gf who calls me on my shit but also encouraging and loving under her icy facade
That's nice. Personally, I want a big tiddy goth gf.
You like girls who wear black?
How're you doing tonight, /trek/?
...
jerking off to my waifu jadzia and dying laughing at how ugly ezri is
Look buddy, I want Jadzia to suffocate me between her thighs as much as anyone else, but there's no reason to pretend that Ezri isn't pretty too.
I'm about to start jerking off to both of them stranded in a shuttle pod together. The temperature keeps rising and they have to help each other get out of their uniforms. It's pretty much just a sauna fantasy with lots of soft, glistening skin and curious glances before giving way to bestial, heathen pleasures of the flesh.
The fat chest is the most important part.
Ugh whatever, I hope you find what you're looking for and stuff.
Why is Orville so much better than Discovery? Why can't Discovery so fucking dry and devoid of hope? It's like watching a high budget documentary of a cat being put down.
>Why can't
meant "why is"
It's not. It's shit.
Discovery, also, is quite good.
I've been with too many chestlets, I'll never be satisfied any other way.
>Discovery, also, is quite good.
Too bad STD is, also, not actually Star Trek.
You forgot to edit the George W at the end.
theyre gonna blow it up
user...
Cross posting because it's important.
It's more than dedication. It's love. True, unadulterated love for a series that meant something to people. STD will never accomplish that, nor will it garner it.
That's what these writers and producers simply don't understand. They believe that surface-level conflict and empty 2016 epithets can replace fundamental human feelings about hope and optimism. They believe that visual distractions can move the soul as easily as solid, visual familiarity. And it's easy to understand why.
These 'writers'...they have never experienced anything in their lives that is real. They've never known love, or compassion, or friendship. They don't know how it feels to have parents who love them, nor do they understand what it's like to love them back fully and whole-heartedly. They don't know what it's like to trust someone who has earned their trust, and most importantly, they have no idea what it's like to consider someone else's point of view.
They simply generate stories, self-insert themselves and their personal conflicts with the surrounding society in 2018, and assume that the rest of the population not only identifies with their minority politics but also shares the same belief of what is right and wrong. It's sad...because it shows just how alone they really are.
Complex is right...with technological advancement comes simplifying form, if possible. A modern nokia from 2003 looks like a toy compared with the brick cellular phones from 1989. But the tech inside is far better.
Imagine having to block shots on this set knowing that your entire crew is going to be visible in the reflection of every surface if you're even in the same ZIP code.
hey everybody we got new uniforms. start wearing them whenever you want who gives a fuck.
Yeah, ha ha, like that would ever happen in Star Trek, ha ha ha...
*nervously hides Generations VHS under the bed*
Why did Pike wink when told about the Mirror Universe?
It's not even a Generations situation, Enterprise crew have the new uniforms, everyone else has the old.
Like they explained. In the first episode of the season.
Should I watch anything leading up to STD or just jump straight to it?
Nothing required really, go straight in.
Kevin Feige rules for America
Women can't show her legs anymore on tv and movies
what is this condition called?
Reminder that if you like the JJ Abrams movies, you are a brainlet.
This is almost good except for all the shiney shit that makes it an eyesore. Should've been carpeting and less lens flare.

>As an undergraduate studying natural sciences at Cambridge, in the late aughts, Sheldrake read the 1988 paper “Mycorrhizal Links Between Plants: Their Functioning and Ecological Significance,” by the plant scientist E. I. Newman, in which Newman argued boldly for the existence of a “mycelial network” linking plants. “If this phenomenon is widespread,” Newman wrote, “it could have profound implications for the functioning of ecosystems.”
>Those implications fascinated Sheldrake. He had long loved fungi, which seemed to him possessed of superpowers. He knew that they could turn rocks to rubble, move with eerie swiftness both above ground and under it, reproduce horizontally, and digest food outside their bodies via excreted enzymes. He was aware that their toxins could kill people, and that their psychoactive chemicals could induce hallucinogenic states. After reading Newman’s paper, he understood that fungi could also allow plants to communicate with one another.
Star trek is dead, and thats how it should be considering its probably the most boring sci-fi franchise out there, with the Federation being the most boring faction. Perfect space communists who live in utopia and do nothing wrong ever is not a realistic or interesting basis for a faction. They started to try to take the series and universe in an interesting direction in DS9, which is still regarded by most fans as the best series (even those who will call me a troll and dismiss me for what I said above) but then immediately abandoned that with Voyager which is unsurprisingly universally regarded as one of the worst series.
Star Trek is alive, well, and good.
Deserved a promotion after tonight (and the last several episodes really.)
>thread made over nine hours ago
>less than a hundred posts
/trek/ is so dead, you faggots gotta let it go
>you're all exceptional
Pike was taking the piss, right?
way too wide
comic sans really deserved a .png there didn't it
Spock is the next captain. I was wrong about Craft.
I don't like Discovery all that much, but I have to admit I like what they have done with the Enterprise this episode to make it look close enough to the classic to feel right and yet modern enough that it fits current scifi norms. I actually like it far more than the JJTrek version, and I actually enjoyed the movies (for what they were, silly action films, and not really Trek until arguably Beyond).
I also like the few crewmembers we've seen. A shame the show isn't about Pike's adventures before his accident.
I left when it just became mallfags circlejerking constantly, honestly can't say whether this current state of eternal autism is better or worse.
Discovery was great tonight. Hyped for next episode. Season 3 already has me pumped since it looks like Jett, Spock and Po are coming on board for the next adventure. Jett makes Paul bearable. Spock makes Burnham bearable when she's not sobbing. Po SOMEHOW makes Tilly bearable. Great ideas on behalf of the showrunners.
Orville, like most of this season, fell short tonight. Was exciting when it seemed like there'd be some permanent consequences but they went with the status quo again. Felt like TNG.
>seeing new std episode
>fucking 40 minutes of drama wailing and crying expressing how sad everyone is
>tech shit getting pulled out of everyone's asses to suit the retarded-at-this-point plot

>'PREPARE FOR BATTLE'
>what the fuck
I mean, seriously, it's so far away from anything Star Trek at this point that it's not even funny.
I've started the Orville recently and the stark contrast between the shows, past the humor on the Orville really fleshes out why STD isn't ST.
Christ this show really fucking hates Sarek.
>fucking 40 minutes of drama wailing and crying expressing how sad everyone is

You think they're going to abandon everyone right away?
It's very true to his character and it's great. Sarek is great.

>fucking 40 minutes of drama wailing and crying expressing how sad everyone is
to be fair, everyone being emo was getting annoying.
>it's so sad we're going to scuttle Discovery
even though it's parked in a nebula in a thousand years
>everybody's so sad they're never going to see Michael again even though almost everybody's coming back for season 3, and the Georgiou-centric Section 31 show is supposed to follow season 3, so everybody should be back to the late 2250s halfway through next season
I figure 23c Control with Leland gets defeated next week, Season 3 is about fighting the future Control with the squid probes, probably with the help of the V'draysh and Craft's people. (unfortunately not with Daniels until STO's 10th anniversary mission or something).
also everybody's "it's the Borg origin story" theory is retarded because the Picard Show is coming and that's where a modern Borg story belongs, origin or not.
>TNG
TNG explored themes through character's own viewpoints. STD just takes us through their emotions.
>Voyager
The setup of the show itself allowed for Voyager to end up as a tech extravaganza and it was an actual core part of the build up, plus when Voy got back a huge deal was made about everything they discovered/invented. Quite a bit away from fucking time crystals shoopdeedoo and sikrit dilithium regeneration and sikrit spore drives.
>TNG
Enough said i got tired by the fifth fucking speech this episode and tenth 'WEREINNITTOWINNIT' moment.
>What?
No1:"I took the liberty of retrofitting our shuttle and landing pod complement with enhanced phasers and i comandeered the new experimental tactical flyers"
45:51
What the dicks is all that. About two fucking hundred landers and shuttles, just fucking counted them right now. Where the fuck did they even fit all of those in the ENT/DIS? Who's flying them cause that's at least one crewmember per, and not like all of them have shuttle piloting experience.
>You think they're going to abandon everyone right away?
I'm thinking there are more than a dozen mainline Starfleet ships against two. No matter how you slice it, a 20 minute 'shields are at 34%' montage won't fucking work to preserve this as credible, and this is in a universe that is very fluctuating when it comes to threat.
Unrelated, i realised what i hated about the technobabble in STD. Technobabble always served to further the plot, but here it's used to create conflict between characters, or worse, just serve as a background for 'they're brainstorming'.
Very well. You're dismissed.
where's obrian?
These days Nicole de Boer looks like that aunt whose husband left her for some 22 year old bimbo with fake tits. And she shows up at your cousin's wedding, wearing a dress that is definitely not age-appropriate and she's trying to prove to herself that she's still desirable and cool so she sneaks booze to all the underage kids she grabs you and pulls you into the bathroom at the reception and does hand stuff with you and you're still not quite sure how you feel about it because on the one hand it was kinky as fuck and made you feel like a total stud but on the other hand, it was your first sexual experience and she was crying the whole time and she's your mom's sister for Christ's sake and you still sometimes get these weird flashbacks when you're with your girlfriend and you just feel sick to your stomach.
Why must you people always lie
>What the dicks is all that. About two fucking hundred landers and shuttles, just fucking counted them right now. Where the fuck did they even fit all of those in the ENT/DIS? Who's flying them cause that's at least one crewmember per, and not like all of them have shuttle piloting experience.
part of a desperate last stand involves being desperate.
also do you really think L'rell isn't going to bring a Klingon fleet to even the odds?
>Voq/Tyler tells Pike he's got something to do and to trust him
syfy.com
>Sadly, there are only two episodes left of Discovery’s second season… but there is still a glimmer of hope that we could see Chancellor L’Rell one more time. “Definitely wait and see,” said Chieffo about the prospect. “I think that Klingons have a tendency to appear when you least expect them to.”
>sikrit dilithium regeneration
...you know that becomes standard Starfleet technology within about twenty years, right?
so this is the final stage of a DS9 fan
also
>About two fucking hundred landers and shuttles, just fucking counted them right now. Where the fuck did they even fit all of those in the ENT/DIS? Who's flying them cause that's at least one crewmember per, and not like all of them have shuttle piloting experience.
Po, the queen who can recrystalize dilithium and helped stabilize the time crystal was also deploying some kind of "siege weapons". probably those weird white things floating around that don't look like shuttles or the asteroid landing pods from the beginning of the season.
her sister is a planet, Control doesn't stand a chance.
im starting to think liking ds9 is a reddit thing

bringing in that alien queen felt like when an amateur DM introduces a new player to the campaign, so forced.
>Calling back things set up in earlier episodes is bad
I see.
Pike is from mirror universe too?
Why he blink to the asian old woman in the teleport room?
I need recommendation for episodes of any series to watch with my gf. She never watches TV. We've watched two TNG episodes and I am always overthinking what to show her which will make trek look good so that she might become a fan or at least enjoy it a bit. What episodes would you show your waifu?
Family. Maybe Tapestry or The Inner Light.
Why couldn't Janeway ever take the decaf pill?
>Family. Maybe Tapestry or The Inner Light.
None of these really work if you're not already attached to the characters.
Try watching Darmok, where a brand-new character suffers so you don't need a pre-existing familiarity to understand it.
Girls don’t like Star Trek user
Darmok's a good introductory ep but ENT's version is better, dammit
I know they wouldn't have been thinking that far ahead at the time and it's just part of season 2 righting the ship, but I wish they hadn't gone so hard with Georgiou being so all powerful and evil in her universe in season 1.
Michelle Yeoh really sells her little dickish reactions to things and is genuinely pretty funny and likable doing so, I think I'd like that and her turn to sorta-kinda-good more if she'd just been an evil starship captain rather than a straight up Cannibal Emperor

Yeah they've really fucked up with Yeoh, she's so good, but she has been reduced to playing this shitty Buffy the Vampire Slayer villain that's now teamed up with the Scooby Squad.
I’ve been banned from TrekBBS so many times it’s not even funny.
DS9 the episode with le tribbles because it was SO FUCKING EPIC dude
>DS9 pays a respectable homage to the show that started it all
>/trek/fags hate it because they hate DS9 and TOS
Colour me surprised
You know, and again, people say "Hey, you know, Star Trek may have jumped the shark seeing as the future people hoped for was nothing more than a Boomer's pipe dream" and I say "Wait, what? Do you not remember the Eugenics Wars? Colonel Green? John Frederick Paxton? Give it some time."
Of course, those are the types of people with massive confirmation bias and half are well enough trolls.
It was a good episode but I didn't like the way Dax was acting in it, like a Trek fan on set.
So is the Enterprise meant to have been built 50 years before Discovery and thats why every things so shit?
Constitution Class is a ship of the line for the era, while the Crossfield class is an experimental testbed and only two were built.
What about True Q?
If you could merge 2 Star Trek characters, which ones would you merge?
Good recommendations. I think I will start with a few more TNG episodes so I don't have to introduce all the characters or explain the context of Voyager/DS9.
Her dad died when she was a kid, so maybe.
Sisko and Tuvok so there would only be one black character.
The bus punk from Star Trek 4 and Lore
Basic ship ages we know in Discovery is that the Shenzou (and presumably the other ships that share it's design style) was already considered an old ship in 2249, the Enterprise came into service in 2245 and the Discovery was brand new in 2256.
I'm pretty sure they openly described the Discovery as being pretty extravagant in it's design at some point, since it's an experimental test-bed rather than something meant to become a standard ship
I like TOS but the DS9 episode was pure redditism DUDE REMEMBER LE TRIBBLES?!?!
>DS9 haters whine about how “DS9 is edgy” and doesn’t “get” the themes and atmosphere of Star Trek
>DS9 haters also whine when DS9 nails TOS’ campiness and light atmosphere and calls it “reddit”
There’s literally no pleasing you
You should go back
If Saru isn't the next captain I will cancel my sister's boyfriend's netflix subscription which is how I watch Disco
That's the point though. It was just a pretty clever and fun "remember that old thing" episode, which is fine.
If there was a problem, it's that DS9 *only* did le campy dress up and goof off episodes whenever it used material based on TOS - unlike the Tribble episode, it's Mirror Universe episodes were dire.
>If Saru isn't the next captain I will cancel my wife's boyfriend's netflix subscription which is how I watch Disco
Fixed that for ya
I loved her in cube so I’d have pushed for more and to leave early with her
Who played the best vulcan and why is it Tim?
Same reason why Dorn played the best Klingon: they’re fans. Fans always make the best actors. That’s why fan films > studio garbage.
Also Dorn got all the pussy.
He's going to be the captain.
Remember an episode or two he was talking about how going through Vahar'ai had made him a different kind of captain and that it might have been made to have happen for a reason? Well, we know who made sure it happened now.
Yes. Also, him and Georgiou were hitting it off pretty hard.
How long til George eats him?
>The enemy ships form a circle around Discovery
>'We are surrounded'
What no. Fly up or down or something.
For what it's worth this doesn't look like a completely 2d formation to me
Nobody cares about True Q. Not even Voyager haters care that Voyager retconned True Q.
I am watching STD Season 2 finale. What am I in for?
I like True Q though. Being able to conjure puppies would be amazing
An episode that isn't the finale

Trying to be Star Wars is what killed Trek.
Not trying to be Star Trek is what killed Wars.
THIS IS NOT MIRROR JANEWAY - SHES MEAN!!!!!!
DS9 turned to shit when the Dominion War started.
ENT turned to shit when the Xindi War started.
STD has always been shit and started out with the Klingon War.
Trek dies when it stops being about exploration.
kys retard
Meh. He alternates between being an annoying space clown and being a more down to earth, realistic character than most of the cast. Philips himself is a fine actor, so as long as the writing in the episode is good, Neelix is good.
But DS9 got good when the Dominion War started and was much worse off before then. That is what made DS9 unique, because you had every other Trek series be about exploration (TOS, TNG, VOY), and DS9 later turned out to be more of a war drama set in space, but with significant Trek elements. It tested Trek ideals and generally worked out because at the end Trek ideals are what win the day, not a military coup on Earth.
STD is more about celebration of violence and war than DS9 was.
S1-S3 DS9 > S4-S7 DS9
Come to Quark's.
Quark's is FUN
Season 1 of DS9 is pretty terrible, dude. It has a few highlights but most of the episodes are not very good. Season 2 and 3 are better, but I don't see them as higher quality than 4-7.
The Dominion War was compelling because the first half of the series was about setting up the different players then testing their resolve and ideals. It put in the work and defined who everyone was before flipping things around, whereas ENT collapsing into a pile of gibberish was a response to 9/11 and Trek fatigue.
STD is entirely tone-deaf. The only people who watch it are mutants who consume anything with the Trek brand on it.
>DS9 turned to shit when the Dominion War started.
When I was a kid I hated the first three seasons of DS9, now I like them so much more. In hindsight I wish they had found a less war-centric way to explore the Dominion and its effects on the Alpha Quadrant. Those first three seasons make that area of space feel alive in a way that TNG couldn't.
>watches for the plot
whateves
Who is this Po alien? Why am I supposed to know who she is?
The thing I love most about DS9 is the western saloon vibe where different characters are always coming and going. The early seasons did a phenomenal job of establishing the major players and letting the rest of the universe find its way through those swinging doors.
I appreciate where the later seasons went, the whole loss of innocence stuff, and it's a summit they couldn't have reached without those early seasons, but nothing gets comfier than seasons 1-3.
When a series focuses on a war arc it loses too much of it's humanity and all it gets back in trade is explosions and long, drawn out sequences of hideous aliens making their hideous plans in some hideous board room. Trek doesn't need to physically travel from planet to planet to be engaging but it cannot sit on one idea for too long or things become stale.
Which is why there are apparently time travelling angels in STD now because people got tired of being constantly at war with the Klingons.
They explain her in the episode faggot.
What is /trek/‘s favorite Star Wars movie?
My Conquest is the Sea of Stars
Either A New Hope or Empire.
I think I actually lean towards A New Hope, because I really enjoy Luke's arc in the movie, I really like Obi-Wan, I like Han and Leia in it a lot, and I appreciate that while it does have a sequel, it feels like a complete story. Empire's biggest problem is that it is just not a complete story (even though I love Empire). It sort of cheapens the story to me when it doesn't even attempt to have a conclusion.
However, my favorite overall part of any Star Wars movie is the Luke/Vader/Emperor stuff at the end of Jedi. It's very good.
>What is /trek/‘s favorite Star Wars movie?
It's difficult to separate them, because I love all three of them. But I've always had a soft spot for Jedi, the space battle is awesome and the throne room stuff is just fantastic.
>webm
Pinkskin propaganda.
Empire, hands down
Based Jedi lovers. When I was a kid I loved Han Solo and Boba Fett, the "cool" characters, but after recently rewatching them halfway through my twenties spending the last ten years acting like a heathen Luke's Hero's Journey arc just hits me.
When he shows up in Jedi he's wearing all black so we aren't sure what he's about, is he a good guy or a bad guy now? Then he whips out his green lightsaber and you still aren't sure who he is, all you know is this isn't the naïve farmer from Hope. As the story unfolds we learn he's confronted his dark side and made peace with it, transcending the duality of the Force and just living through it, and because of his path he knows he can save his father. It's tremendous stuff and their final conflict had me in tears.
Yeah, Star Wars is easy mode compared to Trek but that doesn't mean it isn't a powerful experience.
The Phantom Menace, I'm literally Jar Jar
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST
Empire or ROTS
>/trek/ is so dead
Perhaps you haven't noticed the rampant STD shilling since that shitshow is still airing. The only reason /trek/ hasn't gotten the usual posting from actual Star Trek fans shitposting about actual Star Trek is probably because of Game of Thrones returning and a new Orville episode.
be funnier
I won't post in /trek/ if the last thirty posts are dumbasses who don't understand what's happening in a show they pay to watch and spam the same "why can't STD be good?" posts in every thread. Fuck those posters, they don't deserve my contents.
>taking lore about a fake Star Trek show seriously
STD is literally below fanfic, guys. The people who wrote/created the show dont even like Star Trek and on top of that couldnt even make it resemble actual real Star Trek. I find these two posts particularly embarrassing and hope you're getting paid (you probably are).
based
>dumbasses who don't understand what's happening in a show
Constant emotional validation and complementing of stupid whores who would be thrown out of Starfleet on any other Trek show?
Since Sub Rosa established there's an afterlife in Trek, what happened when Sisko and Dukat reached the other side? Did they keep fighting or did they dust themselves off and go "later playa" and split up looking for their families, maybe bumping into each other every once in a while when they happen to vacation at the same beaches of paradise and instead of continuing the feud they trade hella tight surf spots? Does Dukat swim out pretending to be a shark and pull at Sisko while he's on his board?
Stone knives and bearskins
I like ds9's third season
The past tense two parter was fun
I hope you're abducted by a redditor, strapped to a chair with your eyes wide-open Clockwork Orange style, and forced to watch as he browses and posts on the reddit you love so fucking much. All the while taking a smelly bbc down your throat.
>caring
How much will Marc dab on Ira Behr in the DS9 doc?
What does dab mean?
Very much, in the trailer the whole cast loves him. Ira can't possibly match his chemistry.
It doesn't matter, context is king.
the whole way down
>tfw /trek/ will die under the SW shitposting
NO, THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING
OOOOH MISSA MASSA CAPN DEM KLINGONS BOMBAD!!! BIG POODOO!!!
req.: the pic of Jolene blayloch with Bill gates and she having those weird alien eye contacts that are some sor tof purple color
good god what a cute
which eppy of enterprise was the most j-woke and why was it pic related
In the newest episode of Discovery, why didn't they just use the sporedrive FIRST to jump to fuck knows where, years and days out of reach of control and THEN start their whole energy loading plan during which they can't jump?
because Alex Kurtzman didn't think of that soon enough and no one dared ask him about this issue later on.
But I'm not retarded right? There was nothing binding them to fight in that particular place? They just needed the princess to create the hardware they needed and then could have jumped straight away and charged their time-jumpy thing safely away from control.
Personally I thought what would happen is that somehow they would contain control, jump to "as far away as the spore drive allows" dump it and then come back, accidentally starting the Borg.
>all this star wars shitposting
Time to show them who the REAL franchise is. .. .. .
At last we will reveal our charts to the shitposters. At last we will have (You)s.

So THIS... this is the power of network funded shill posting (WHOA!)
In an interview with The Daily Beast, Eve opens up about her journey from London to the furthest reaches of the galaxy.
I was talking with Benedict Cumberbatch last week about Hawking and Starter for 10. He said you were the only one who didn’t fall for the “neutron cream” gag onset.
>That’s kind of him! Yes, it is true. But I think it’s because I was bullied by Simon [Pegg] for so many years, that I knew it was just another tactic. It’s relentless. He does all that practical-joking stuff, so I knew that if Simon was texting me the night before saying, “Don’t forget to put your neutron cream on!” I knew that something was awry.
Now, I wanted to start off with your early years and work your way up to Star Trek Into Darkness, if you’ll bear with me.
>Let’s do it!
Do you remember your first amateur acting gig?
>Yeah, I did a school play, Twelfth Night, and I played Olivia when I was 12 at Bedales School. I just loved it. It was the first time I’d put makeup on, so that was pretty rad, and then I forget myself completely onstage, and that’s the drug.
born down in a dead man's eeeend.
the first kick i took was when i hit the groooouuu-eee-ouunnd
It bothered me as well. I figured I missed some crucial plot point because I found the story so incredibly boring, but I can't really think of a reason why they didn't just jump into the Delta Quadrant, for example, and then do their time travel shit there.

>Blackpilled: General Denning made first contact with the Ferengi
Yep, a real life true Trekspert right here.
So much shit in that episode. At least half of the episode was people telling each other goodbye. Teh bit where they tried to destroy the discovery by shooting at it, but couldn't? They saying that one starfleet vessel is indestructible to another? Just keep fucking shooting it. Or, I dunno, have someone beam aboard and fucking disable the shields physically. Fuck STD.
doesn't the shield prevent from beaming to/from the ship?
If so then how did they returned
>doesn't the shield prevent from beaming to/from the ship?
correct
Put your phone down.
>DAN CURRY: The practical effects for the orbs were crinkled aluminum foil with a backlight behind them.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>At least half of the episode was people telling each other goodbye
oh god, yes. And it wouldn't be a problem if half the characters they featured were actual characters and not people to fill the space while Michael Sue wasn't in the scene or needed someone to look at. As it is, it felt very hollow and made me wish the show just booted Michael off and went for episodes where you actually saw the camraderie between the crew and showed their families.
>Teh bit where they tried to destroy the discovery by shooting at it, but couldn't? They saying that one starfleet vessel is indestructible to another? Just keep fucking shooting it. Or, I dunno, have someone beam aboard and fucking disable the shields physically.
my question is why did none of them ever think about trying to communicate in some way with the information they had? If it could prevent itself from being deleted and now showed that it also could evolve to manipulate an entire starship to protect itself, shouldn't there be someone out there who would go "hey, maybe, even if we don't have any tongues in common, there is a way to tell the info we got what is going on and how there's a rouge AI that wants to fuck it? maybe we can use some sort of coding language or similar? as amazing as it seems, it appears it has some level of intelligence and even if it doesn't, we should keep this option open."
son if it was ... UP ta meeeee now...
>Michael Sue is leaving forever, goodbyes with those, goodbyes with that
well damn, maybe this show will get decent now
>a bunch of people names I may or may not know suddenly decide to join

CUTE
Is that the first Brit we've seen? I don't remember even a single reference to the region in the other shows.
There's the holodeck Ireland, holodeck Victorian England several times (Sherlock Holmes, Janeway's weird nanny holodeck program), Bashir's Battle of Britain holodeck programs, and Picard's suspicious ""French"" accent, but I don't think there's really any references at all to the UK itself in the future, no.
Presumably it got glassed in WWIII.
oh shit, they visited Oxford in the TNG finale. I forgot that. Nevermind, it's still there.
That's technically an alternate timeline's future
Going by memory alpha the last reference to it in the prime timeline/universe is 2152. Then it's nearly 250 years of nothing.
Sisko didn't die. He was sucked up by Prophet Magic(tm)
It's not even clear if Dukat died either, its entirely possible the PAH WRAAAITHS sucked him up too.
>Trying to watch Voyager through since I haven't in like 12 years
>Its terrible
>Keep seeing images of terrible episodes on /trek/
>Realize that I haven't seen those episodes yet and there are more terrible ones to come
I love how the USA/USSR was mentioned constantly in TOS (I know its cause it was made in the 60s), and America is mentioned multiple times in TNG.
AMERICA NUMBER ONE THE FEDERATION IS ACTUALLY SPACE AMERICA WOOOHOOO YUROP BTFO
When you're on the VOY ride terrible becomes merely mundane. It's a wild fucking ride and in the end you'll be stockholm syndrome'd too.
I still think I like the show. Its very nostalgic to me as Voyager was the one I saw as a kid growing up, but quality wise it is just so much worse. But there are still some decent episodes, and half the fun of Trek is watching the bad episodes to complain online.
Like that retarded episode where everyone accuses a hologram of being a mass murderer, and then they don't want to save Torres because of it. Fuck it man, just let your chief engineer die even though the information is just sitting there in your memory banks. Goddammit, I'm mad just thinking about it.
What is pon'farr sex like? How could a human male ever satisfy them?
Sisko didn't die?
I might be misremembering, but I swear he talks to the Prophets after the whole Dukat business and they even tell him he isn't dead. Maybe I am confusing it with one of his other conversations with them, but I don't think he died.
Yeah and she's not even bajoran or nothing, just a maquis. She's also half klang, the worst fucking offenders. She wishes her ancestors were as ethical as a literal war criminal. Also Crell Moset was the least smug cardassian ever portrayed which is its own achievement.
He's in the wormhole doing DMT with the Prophets.
Yes, they "didn't arrive," even with the uniforms being made by replicators.
Only the ship that was away to be a time bottle of the Fed values had the things.
But that would be obscene and sexist, user!
Why does she look a trillion times better here than through the whole show?
meg neu dred
Bring weights, gear, and a bad attitude.
So, I wonder how the look of the ship will be in the Picard show.
Sisko does show himself to Kasidy afterwards and is like
>yo I'll be back in a year or so, dunno lol
so he's probably back by the time Voyager gets back into the alpha quadrant or at the latest, when Nemesis rolls around.
Is one for the incels and the other for the autists?
This was not the case when TOS was filmed, but Nimoy was always seething because of Spock.
You can keep your telepathy, katra transfers and explosive consoles.
But that is after WW3.
