I'm really looking forward to the new series, guys. Just so long as Mads Mikkelsen is in it. Which he is.

Sadly, I believe Mads has said he wouldn't be interested in doing television again since nothing could touch his experience on Hannibal.

I guess I need to have a son, so he can ritually kill me :negative:

As per usual, one of Voyager's guest stars is more interesting and likable than the actual cast and I was just wishing she was a main character.

I don't really see a huge leap of Cochrane becoming his TOS incarnation. The movie specifically addresses it because he doesn't match their conceptions of him. He's a drunk, he's selfish, and he doesn't care about humanity. He's also incredibly damaged as a survivor of World War 3. We have no idea who he was before the world destroyed itself, maybe he used to be more like he later comes to be and the psychic trauma of the war hosed him up. Certainly by the time Archer comes to know him, he's a lot more like the historical Zephram Cochrane; it's not hard to imagine why he would change after first contact.

WickedHate posted:

That's not the same in ways I can't begin to explain without going cross eyed.

Nah, it's exactly the same. The universe that Spock came from doesn't exist, or at the very least the causal chain leading to that particular incarnation of Spock is broken. He cannot happen any longer. And yet, there he is. Old Spock shouldn't exist, but he does, he's a paradox.

First Contact can still occur precisely as the film depicts, because the E arriving at all was a paradox already. Which means the Borg episode of Enterprise can still have occurred the same way. Just because the future those events are the product of no longer exists, doesn't mean those events are different.

Yorktown was awesome. Easily the coolest thing in the film. The new uniforms were sweet, too.

Pine has really nailed movie Kirk, it's a really naturalistic set of acting choices which evoke so much of what I like from Shatner in the films. The standout performance to me.

Reed is his job. He's the dude in charge of shootiness. Phase pistols, torpedoes, ship security, all that. He's not much more than that, and I've come to appreciate that as I've gotten older. He's mostly professional, but when he falls apart, he does so hard. The military is full of Reeds.

Trip is far more a lovely stereotype, to the point the show lampshades him as a lame southern stereotype.

I like the third season, honestly. There's a clear story, and I feel like it's pretty lovely to criticize it for being a reaction to 9/11. That event happened a mere two years earlier, and it coloured everything for a long time.

I enjoy the fourth, but it feels way less focused despite having better stories overall.

Quark was not terribly successful by Ferangi standards. He complains pretty frequently about family that are doing significantly better than him.

I think he has a brother who was an arm's dealer and owns a moon.

He's not stupendously wealthy, no, but he has a solid business with a good income which lets him employ people and even take care of his widowed mother. Cousin Gaela owned a moon, sure, but he was in a phenomenally risky business and eventually lost it all. Quark is a solid ferengi, the backbone of a stable economy.
