/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

Bro, just post the image directly

[–] SkybreakerEngineer@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Yes, let's blame Star Trek for Michael Bay and the MCU

[–] usernamefactory@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 weeks ago

Kind of ironic that the art here is so much better than the joke. Really well done caricatures.

I have the entire Trek Mad issue. Will Odo wed uhura? Will the tribbles rise again?

I mean, if they're talking about the movies or new Trek, I'd kinda' have to agree on the sentiment, too. Most of the movies were Hollywood action schlock more than good scifi, at least when placed next to the shows. The shows were almost always low budget with good story/characters and bad to mid effects (good for the budget and what they pulled off, though), while the movies were big budget and somehow junk. ... and the new stuff is almost all big budget and somehow junk, too.

They're very clearly talking about TMP

From Mad Magazine? Which movie, the Wrath of Khan?

[–] schipelblorp@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 weeks ago

Likely the first Star Trek movie, 1979. It's basically an FX re-hash of Kubrick's 2001 with not a lot else going for it. It's largely forgotten, tho I think TNG stole its music for their theme.

from linked, dunno which issue
