Jazerus posted:orville needs more wood Captian Mercer walks onto the newly renovated bridge of the Orville for the first time, the rest of his bridge crew following at a respectful distance, allowing him to take in the sight of all the new fixtures and wood trim, especially around his captain's char. A captains chair is a mark of status among Union captains, some are more ornate, some are fitted with extra modules and personal screens, some are more plush and comfortable. Mercer's new chair is trimmed in rich stained mahogany, with a clear finish so perfect, you'd swear it was glass. The crew gazes at the new bridge in astonishment. Ed runs his hand over the headrest, his fingers brushing over the soft velour and running down the trimmed support. "I've got wood", he says to himself and smiles as the other bridge crew find their positions and begin to acquaint themselves with their new consoles. Bortus turns, "I also, have wood, Captain." Kelly adds, "I think we've all got wood." The camera pans out through the main screen, giving us our first glimpse of the newly refitted and updated Orville. No longer vaguely the shape of a human sperm, it's been fitted with two orb shaped scavenged and refurbished Kaylon engines, the fastest and most advanced in the galaxy, on either side of it's aft section, and now it undoubtedly resembles a rock hard phallus, bristling with weaponry, and ready to gently caress the Kaylon back to the stone age. Mercer takes his seat "Gordon. Set a course for Kaylon. Maximum speed. Let's go get some." The Orville's engines spool up and rocket the ship off into the distance. *roll opening credits*

Tom Guycot posted:Oh my god... The nerds who made that amazing Enterprise-D recreation that paramount shut down, have now moved on to making a fulling explorable Orville, down to the last room, with VR support like the last project. If this isn't turned into a Star Trek: Bridge Crew - Orville Edition type VR game I am seriously gonna start a riot.

Honestly, I think Bortus would be fine sitting on a skull throne. I mean, he was perched on top of that egg for what? Like 3 weeks? No problems. Edit: You know, I was thinking, there should be some DLC for games like DDR where you can be Bortus and/or Klyden. Jay_Zombie fucked around with this message at 17:02 on Oct 30, 2019 |

8one6 posted:"Hobo clowns are the most dangerous kind because they're hungry." Indeed. That was a really good episode. Small White Dragon posted:If we're still talking about Avenue 5 here, I'm amused by the little tidbits of past history on Earth. The Whitehouse is in Buffalo, NY now? I haven't finished the latest episode, but I do like: "Captain, are you ready?" "With every fiber of my being...... No." Got a chuckle out of that.

twistedmentat posted:Huh that actually sounds interesting. I might have to check it out, despite hearing the first episode wasn't very good. Spoiler alert, none of them are very good. They have their moments though. Hugh Laurie is good. Josh Gad is annoying. Zach Woods is exactly the same character that he was in this scene in Silicon Valley. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZJQDpS7ikc Notice: My opinions are generally agreed upon to be bad and wrong. So take that with a grain of salt. Jay_Zombie fucked around with this message at 21:35 on Feb 17, 2020 |

piratepilates posted:well why don't they just ship them another ship so they can all fly home, duh /s For real. Presumably they have at least 4 others. Definitely at least 1 other. Though I think that the ships don't actually have the ability to navigate around on their own much. They seem to rely mainly on proper trajectory and gravitational slingshots around celestial bodies for locomotion. Like, basically they take the Carnival Space Ship, and throw it into space in such a way that it loops around a couple planets and winds back around earth in a few weeks without having to expend whatever it uses for propulsion to do so. I only assume this because I think the first order of business if they actually had the ability to maneuver, would be to immediately attempt a course correction of some kind, that while maybe not perfect, would drastically reduce their overall travel time. And if they used up fuel they were planning on using to stop, then so be it, figure that out AFTER you make sure that you're not stuck out here for 3 years with only a few weeks worth of supplies.

Matt Spencer: "Ok but what if, instead of supplies, which obviously would be perishable. I mean, how long does Tira Misu actually last? Right? Ok but, instead of supplies, they just send us a cargo ship full of coffins? Just stacked to the top with coffins? They're non-perishable. And our supply is already depleted. It's the one thing that we're definitely going to need once we run out of food and the stronger passengers begin to eat the weaker ones."

To be fair, that fits perfectly with Mercer's character too. The Bloop posted:It's important to see it once, though. If nothing else for the setup to JA'LOJAAAAAAA!!!!

The Lord Bude posted:I think his character is kind of a weak point in the show, as long as Seth stayed involved in the production side I wouldn't mind a change. Promote Kelly, get a new guy in to be first officer. Do you want more Tharl? Because that's how you get more Tharl.
