Was kind of surprised to see someone actually defend "These Are the Voyages" on one of the Facebook groups I follow. Apparently they thought the only real flaw with the episode was the episode of TNG that it used. I have no idea what I bother with things like this, because it's not the first...

Personally I don't care for any of the nuTrek ship designs.

This is one of the more absurd tropes of Star Trek, though, which is rightly criticized. It's continued used in the Abrams Trek movies is just that much more hilarious given that this is something that has been made fun of about the show for years. This is another aspect of the first Abrams...

I very much doubt that. Him not being into Star Trek is why he famously made it more like Star Wars, as he himself admits.

:unsure: (time=8:47 if it refuses to cooperate) I mean, probably not, but still. I actually liked Lost starting out, but the problem was that there were never any answers to anything. Something Abrams has never figured out is that while the mystery box might work to get people watching and...

The director has no input into the script? :unsure: My own take on the Abrams Trek movies is that they actually tend to come off like old porn movies, which is to say that while they all had a "plot" of some kind or other, basically everything that wasn't a sex scene is usually just an...

Abrams Trek movies are just dumbed down dumb action movies. This just helps to illustrate how little thought went into them beyond making cool action scenes.

Of course - even back then people were making that argument. And yet Tom is on the nose. I could point out that there are a lot more men in prison than women per capita, but I doubt anyone making that argument with regard to racism would say that this represents sexism. They'd probably just...

I still like the Enterprise-D the best, followed closely by the A.

I see this word used a lot to defend bad Trek. Got used a lot to defend the Abrams movies as an example. From what I can tell, though, it basically translates into self-parody at best.

Star Trek continues in its quest to be anything other than Star Trek.

Then why is she the one who ways "used to call Canada"?

Speaking of things that were forgotten:

Honestly there was an episode of TNG like that, too, where Worf's adoptive brother saved some people. Ironically early TNG handled it better in that Pen Pals episode.

The experience was real for him - he wasn't just larping. :cautious: Frankly I find it insulting that you would defend this action by Kurtzman and co, which was done solely to help tear down the character of Picard a little bit more by essentially helping them do it by coming up with this...

I mean, they forgot about one of the only episodes that got Star Trek a mainstream award so they could berate Picard about supposedly not knowing what having a family is like. They forgot that it's always been possible to use a transporter on a cloaked ship. They forgot many, many things. Why...
