Star Trek blog watching TNG and DS9 on repeat. I am plagued with scenarios and must release them. Love all things Star Trek. I am obsessed with The X-Files. Dipping the toe into Stargate.

I hate this piece, i'll probably not finish it

And here are some WIP's -if anyone cares-

I don’t often see a lot of appreciation for how excellently scored and beautifully shot Search for Spock is…just wonderful.

Underrated power dynamic: CMO vs. Captain.

It would’ve been awesome to actually see Beverly relieve Picard of command. And by awesome I mean stressful (positive).

*twirls hair* he's just so... obnoxiously boring.

Star Trek has always had phenomenal makeup but my word, look at the detail here. The seam, the little wires barely visible, the glint of metal, the fact that Brent's actual skin looks like it's the fake part, it's just insane. And not even a drop of CGI used.

listening to an audiobook version of The Lord of the Rings, and there is a Hobbit waiter called "Nob" at an inn but I, being trek-brained, keep hearing it as "Nog" and imagining the character as a Ferengi

A potent testament to the effectiveness of Star Trek’s efforts to make audiences believe they are witnessing something in the far future is when you see one of the actors in normal clothes and it’s just so shocking. Like your brain rejects the visual input it’s receiving. T-shirts and hoodies don’t exist anymore, Mr. Stewart. Get back in your period appropriate space clothes. And cover your normal skin-tone forearms, Brent and Andy.

One thing Star Trek regularly does so well is patch up overpowered-character plot holes with very specific inner traits.

“Why doesn’t Odo change into—?” Cause he’s bad at it and has rigid moral reasoning.

“Why doesn’t Data just rip that guy’s head off?” Cause he’s not violent.

“Why doesn’t Q just save that planet?” Cause he’s a bit of a dick.

From a writing perspective this is absolutely genius and I love it because my Hollywood necrosis brain wants the obvious plot answer but then I get a gentle finger wag from the writers that says “no no, remember this is not a normal show, it’s a Star Trek show.”

just rip that guy’s head off?” Cause

he’s not violent.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
