DIS hasn't lived up to the premise about T'Kuvma's point of view of the Federation. They briefly state in dialogue about how the Federation was encroaching on the Klingon way of life and will eventually assimilate the Klingon culture, but they don't really make the case in the show so far. There's parallels to be made with people in certain parts of the country feeling 'left behind', whose way of life is being threatened by migrants and refugees. ISIS can also be similarly seen as a strong reaction against the cultural/influence of the West. As far as we know, the only disciples of T'Kuvma left are in L'rell and Voq. When Voq finally reawakens in Tyler and integrates, he'll symbolically be the child of two cultures. Maybe that's how this Klingon war ends for now. I'm generally enjoying Discovery, but some parts feel under-cooked to me. It's also interesting that there's a not dissimilar backlash against both Discovery and The Last Jedi. Impossible to please all the fans. There's a reason they're called 'fanatics'.

Apparently cast breakdowns for the Picard Show is out. Edit: Nevermind, the source doesn't seem that solid, and there's no confirmation from other outlets. E2: Here it is anyway, for those curious. http://www.thathashtagshow.com/2019/03/01/picard-series-character-update/ I'm not finding anything particularly clickbaity on the website, but it's still an obscure outlet. xerxus fucked around with this message at 05:14 on Mar 2, 2019 |

Gonz posted:Noah Hawley, the creator of FX's Fargo and Legion, has been hired to direct the new Star Trek movie, which continues in the JJTrek universe. This has obviously been in the works for a bit. I wonder if it has or will affect a potential Pike series. Will CBS/Viacom want two different versions of live action Spock at the same time?

Showtime is also a ViacomCBS property, so the company must have been impressed by his work.

When something is 'vaporized' what happens to the matter? Like if a metal box was vaporized, does this mean people are breathing in metal fumes? and breathing in people if someone gets shot?

Given what we know about he Ferengi, how possible is it for Rom to actually effectively change society? Getting a 'progressive' Grand Nagus doesn't mean much if the systemic forces are 100% against any kind of reform. Just think there's probably 1000 other people just like Brunt who are opportunists and want to maintain status quo. Is it more likely that Rom gets ganked, or that he ineffectually 'rules' and people don't follow his example? SardonicTyrant posted:I think another thing that's not talked about is that a utopia does not mean it is a benevolent society. The Federation treats its citizens very well, but is less concerned about people outside of its territory, and it raises the question of how far will you go to maintain your utopia. They do let non-Federation but human colonies devolve into rape planets. As long as the last functioning government says no to Federation involvement, they are perfectly fine just ignoring massive suffering.

Axe-man posted:Isn't discovery being run by like 50 people? Discovery's crew compliment is 136 in Season 1, and 88 at the start of Season 3. Other than the massive turbolift junction which should take up a city block, the vast majority of space is probably taken by science labs. Had the record for most "discrete scientific missions" for a ship at over 300 Stamet's fungal lab is huge.  And Lorca's lab was on a deck that's so rarely used that the lights were automatically off.

OldSenileGuy posted:I don't know what the difference is between the two Trek threads so forgive me if this is the wrong thread: I've been following this person's trek leaks for a while and they've been largely accurate. Definitely has an insider as they've shown me some leaked casting videos before.

That there exists a category of "proto-Vulcans" like the Mintakans lends credence to the idea that Arretans did in fact seed a bunch of 'Vulcanoids' across the galaxy... Meaning that Vulcans did not originate from Vulcan.
