WIN!

I'm not a Trekkie. Romulans are Space Jews, then?

Damn, if we can't get a full length Pixar movie out of those I want to be able to collect all the trading cards.

McCoy is perfect and the Orion Slave Girl and Uhura are uber kewt!

Good eye, Subby!

Only if they are written by the Original Series writers and the Crazy Eights gang.

/get well, PAD!

Why is McCoy a god damn monkey?

I'd watch this as a weekly series.

Or a movie, but would prefer a series.

Sulu is pretty bad, too. Otherwise they're great.

Sulu and Chekov are the worst. McCoy is awesome.

Not enough lens flare.

quatchi: Sulu and Chekov are the worst.

I've seen every Star Trek episode two or three times, and I did not realize until this very moment that Sulu and Chekov are two different characters.  Was one of them a replacement character for the other or something?

J. Frank Parnell: Judging from the main page of that site he's actually catching some flak over the Sulu image.

The colours I use are straight from the source, by which I mean I use Photoshop to pick the colour right off the photo of the character I am trying to emulate

Haha, nope.

No, he's right. He took the color right off that shirt.

Sulu/Takei went on hiatus in season 2 to go off and make Green Berets 1968 so they brought in the Chekov character as replacement but then rehired Takei when the filming wrapped up. After he came back the two sorta shared the amount of lines of one character. Probably didn't help that Kirk went through the scripts and tried to steal all the best lines for himself and that the relationship between Kirk McCoy and Spock overshadowed the rest of the cast



Would really like to see an animated series of ST again. Was a huge fan of the original animated series and, of course, the Alan Dean Foster books of those shows in which you actually got more backstory.

That's racist.

Mugato: ransack.: I'm not a Trekkie. Romulans are Space Jews, then?

No, that would be the Ferengi.

I can see where your coming from, but I think the Ferengi are clearly meant to be business-minded Americans. Archer even says to the first one he meets, after hearing about the Rules of Acquisition "Y'know. That kind of thinking nearly destroyed our civilization not too long ago."

Not sure if Mugato is coming from there or just making fun of the people who think the Ferengi are Jewish stereotypes.

Interpretations of Ferengi as a parody of Judaism

In the book Religions of Star Trek, Ross S. Kraemer wrote that "Ferengi religion seems almost a parody of traditional Judaism... Critics have pointed out a disturbing correlation between Ferengi attributes (love of profit that overrides communal decency; the large, sexualized head feature, in this case ears) and negative Jewish stereotypes." Commentator Jonah Goldberg wrote that Ferengi were portrayed in The Next Generation as "runaway capitalists with bullwhips who looked like a mix between Nazi caricatures of Jews and the original Nosferatu."

Cross media design isn't really a new concept.  I read Countdown.  It fills in the gaps pretty well and it's sort of a "last hurrah" to the old universe, with many of the NG characters you love getting their dream jobs.

No you're not. Those are mostly the characters from Ratatouille in TOS uniforms. A Pixar film.

The Klingon and the Andorian are from Brave.  McCoy is Mr. Huph (sp) from The Incredibles.

Sulu and Chekov are the worst. McCoy is awesome.

Sulu and Chekov need to have the head shapes flipped.  Sulu is more long vertically and Chekov is more rounder.

Chekov actually looks more like Charlie from the "Charlie X" episode.

Just about nothing in Enterprise fits into the canon.  Which is a pity since it needs to be stuffed into one and then shot into oblivion.

Y'know, I was dismissive of Enterprise until recently and I've fallen for it. I like to think the 'canon irregularities' are things that are only obvious to us in hindsite. I'm on record in other threads recently explaining why.

Also: Tripp is the most fully realized character in all of ST.

No, it's a Klingon... the Klingons from the reboot movie (which were then cut) wore helmets like that.

Considering Enterprise was canon by definition...  pretty well.

"While the Ferengi race was known to the Federation, this is their first encounter with the species, and theEnterprise crew finds the Ferengi appear to be at a similar technology level as themselves."

Sounds like Enterprise did a shiatload of retcon.

That's one of the weaker, earlier episodes, but they still covered their asses on that one by having the Ferengi never identify themselves as Ferengi. Archer meets them, but never knows who or what they are, aside from being space pirates/hijackers.

The show was actually great. I trashed it when it was on and watched later on Netflix, and I really wish I had watched when it was on... Maybe they wouldn't have canned it if it got ratings.

I've been trying to get into in on Netflix. It's been... difficult. I got to the "I didn't know space was going to be hard!" episode and I just stopped. Is there a list of episodes worth watching? I'd be willing to do that if I could skip the filler.

Canon went out the window in Voyager when they decided that the federation knew about the borg way before Q-Who - and that 7's parents went off in their cosmic winnebago looking for them. There is a discussion on one of the DVDs where the writers say "well this messes up canon" to which the Voyager showrunner said "screw canon, this is a good story"

It wasn't.

Anyway that probably marks the big people where Star Trek writers decided that they could deliberately break canon - rather than making mistakes as will happen from time to time.

And the Pixarizations keep coming:

tgambitg: No, it's a Klingon... the Klingons from the reboot movie (which were then cut) wore helmets like that.

Because their little genetic money-business with human augment DNA made them all ridgeless (probably the ONLY Enterprise story worth watching, because it finally explains the reason for the difference between TOS and movie/TNG Klingons).

There was no contact with the Borg before TNG, which lead to the Borg going back in time in an attempt to assimilate a less-advanced Earth. The wreckage of the borg sphere was reactivated by archeologists, and it created a mini-collective. Not so much a temporal ass-fark as Nero's arrival, but close.

They really should have left it with Worf saying that they don't discuss it with outsiders. Anyway, the new Romulans have less pronounced ridges on their heads and no one ever mentions that.


Pretty sure it was mentioned in the Unification episodes guest-starring Leonard Nimoy.

The Federation didn't know about the Borg. 7's parents were basically chasing bigfoot on their own. Then they got assimilated and none of their data reached the Federation. No canon violation.

This. Also there was a bit of canon violation before Voyager. Guinans were victims of the Borg. Guinan (among others) was rescued by the Enterprise B before Picard was even born (Star Trek Generations). But apparently all those refugees never bothered to tell the Federation about the Borg up until Q puts the Enterprise D in front of them.
