#about me #pinned post

I love behind the scenes photos of the Kelvin Timeline cast looking casual but still in uniform cause I like to think of them as photos taken by the crew instead and there’s this reality where they actually sneak photos of each other unaware or candid whilst on duty

#star trek #star trek aos #the Kelvin timeline #james t kirk #spock #nyota uhura #pavel chekov #leonard mccoy #hikaru sulu #Montgomery scotty #idk why specifically the AOS crew because I know there’s photos like this for all series #but I have it more in mind that they would do that #something about them being in this pressing situation thresh out the academy at a young age and taking it seriously but diffusing the #tension by taking pictures of each other of guard #either that or the Starfleet academy lot lmao

rewatching all the Sam Kirk episodes of Strange New Worlds and I’ve come to the conclusion that he really is the most whumpable character. like bro is going through it most of the time he’s on screen and I’m pretty sure that is his core personality trait since the writers know they can fuck around a bit since it’s a while before his canonical death. but reading the SNW IDW comics really put it into perspective because his only appearance includes him being knocked unconscious and threatened like knew they needed a minor character in that situation as all other roles where preoccupied so ensue Sam Kirk

#star trek #star trek strange new worlds #george samuel kirk #if anything it’s low-key foreshadowing in a way I think #I beg the next series to give us more Jim and Sam moments #those are my thoughts for today #his ratio of screen time to whumpage is something to be studied just saying #I’m fascinated by his stupidity

first Starfleet Academy, now Gen V. they really just hate the woke youth 💔

#like it ain’t even subtle guys #it’s like stubbing your toe then being sh0t 57 times #like why can’t we have good things anymore #star trek #starfleet academy #gen v #the boys

also another reason why I love Star Trek 2009 so much, and why it really stuck with me as a kid, was the crew’s dedication for prioritising practical effects over straight up CGI usage and how this ultimately works in this film’s favour and holds up so well even 17 years later

#star trek #Star Trek 2009 #like maybe I was an odd child but I was so fascinated by the behind the scene feature that came with the dvd version #like how they used the mirrors to record the close ups of the actors for the space jump scene #also this much be my anti cgi bias talking #I don’t mind it but I just think films hold up so much better in future when it’s considered #anyway I’m just back here yapping again

klingons are gay, stay pressed losers <3

b’avi didn’t die for this shit

#starfleet academy

i wish all in involved in the cancellation of Starfleet Academy at paramount+ a very pleasant get fucked

#no one talk to me #i’m mourning #I’m gutted for the whole cast they deserved better than that #I know it’s rough and it can be literally make or break with tv shows but in this climate it’s the worst #this show was so important and it feels like purposeful erasure of representation #idc #star trek #starfleet academy

I might have jokingly compared Starfleet Academy to being somewhat similar to Community (in the essence of the show being centred in an academic environment and the main group are always at the scene of crime whenever anything happens) but I’m now reconsidering my top contender for this comparison having watched Strange New Worlds because what do you mean we practically have a glee episode, a zombie episode, a body swap episode, a murder mystery episode, a documentary episode, a fake wedding episode, and a cartoon cross over episode?

#I might be missing a few #and also potentially getting a puppet episode ?#unless I’m mistaken in that’s only specially for promo #star trek #starfleet academy #star trek strange new worlds #snw #sfa #I think I’ve a lot of fun with both of these series because it’s so refreshing to just have some shows that are light hearted and have fun #with the format whilst still keep it serious at times #also everyone having romantic tension with practically everyone else #a staple of both shows lmao #particularly starfleet academy everyone be flirting with everyone and you could play music over it and call it a pairing #community tv #just waiting for some holiday special episodes now #I need a Halloween party from at least one of these shows

I just think he’s neat

tumblr congratulating me for making 10 posts like I know that’s right. I love to fucking yap bro

#it’s like a reward #recognition for not shutting tf up #this app hates to see me coming

I think the real reason I love the Star Trek AOS films so much is that even after the course of everyone’s lives have been altered by the attack on the Kelvin they are all still destined to find each other

#star trek #star trek aos #kelvin timeline #like that’s family right there #like I love how a lot of the film just comes does to pure coincidence #or is it???#they were destined to be family #like sulu getting the position because the lt is ill #Kirk just happens to be marooned where Scotty is etc #like that’s just fate running it’s course #I love them #the first film is also just like a quest for Kirk to collect all the main crew among his journey to becoming captain #james t kirk #spock #nyota uhura #pavel chekov #hikaru sulu #montgomery scott #leonard mccoy

beginning to think I might be the only one who probably likes strange new worlds the way everyone is hating the proposed spinoff on Twitter currently 💀

#star trek strange new worlds #star trek #james t kirk #spock #im probs in the minority here lmao #just as I wanted to be more active on Twitter I’m suddenly disappearing like that one gif ✌️

breaking in the new sketch pad with a few Star Trek scribbles ✨

I want to do some more so please feel free to leave me some suggestions as well

#star trek #star trek aos #star trek strange new worlds #snw #kelvin timeline #spock #sam kirk #nyota uhura #pavel chekov #james t kirk #montgomery scott #+ scotty’s yogurt #sketches #theses are all based on behind the scenes photos of the cast #that’s why it’s kinda a random selection cause it’s whatever pinterest came when refreshing the tab

loved subspace rhapsody but think it could have been elevated by having at least one scene where this happens in the hallways

#star trek #star trek snw #st snw #strange new worlds #at least we have our we’re all in this together type finale lmao #I don’t think I’m recovering from the Klingons tho #james t kirk #spock #christopher pike #una chin riley #laan noonien singh #christine chapel #nyota uhura #idk who but it seems like a very James t Kirk move to pull #but in the context of the show this should have been Spock post chapel dumping him

how I imagine all the other cadets at starfleet academy act whenever the main group are the centre of attention in every class

#starfleet academy #I just watched the newest episode #it’s reminding me of community and this was my first thought #low-key feels something the dean would arrange assigning an acting class to get them to open up lmao #but it’s like very specific towards the main group #star trek #jay den kraag #caleb mir #genesis lythe #darem reymi #SAM #series acclimation mil #tarima sadal #ocam sadal
