    Looking forward to Star Trek: Bootstraps, featuring the USS Ayn Rand.

      They’re just going to continue Andromeda and make Kevin Sorbo the showrunner.

      Always has been. They canceled the original series and ended all of the other series when the money pump stopped growing.

    I hate how they keep redesigning the Gorn to use as villains/monsters/enemies. Star Trek Online nailed the design imo.

      Personally I think they shouldn’t be redesigning any of the aliens. That image of the “Gorn” would be something that could be cool… if it were a new alien species.

      I think their lore explanation was that this was a baby Gorn, which I guess are still driven by instinct until they kill all of their siblings, grow up, and are picked up by the other Gorn?

        They literally ripped off Alien, my man.

        The Gorm were xenophobic and territorial. But now they turned them into straight up monsters.

        If you understand how dead television is. This plays true to Larry. He buys up dead tech and gets played technically. Oracle is a joke.

          Oracle acquired Cerner and that is truly a shit-tier system with absolutely horrific support.

      It’s gorn erasure is what it is. Cultural appropriation. Gorn wear gold lamé singlets and to say otherwise is offensive to all gorn.

        This is essentially a totally different species; why didn’t they just give it a new name…?

          They don’t create new things, they just rehash old ideas (and sometimes ruin classic scenes just for the hell of it)

            A refresh of the horn might have been on order- like the TNG Klingon refresh (or the one before that.)

            But like stop it with the “oh we made this entirely new culture out of an old species.” Bullshit.

            Sorry. I find this stuff infuriating

      One being a tool of the other, I would say there’s little difference in the two arguments.

    Seeing that the far-right fighting league UFC is getting on Paramount… Yeah, my disdain for nuTrek is vindicated. It’s all garbage slop with no soul made only for profits, anyways
