You don’t have to censor the word “Fuck.” This isn’t, like, a Christian minecraft server.
“cunt” and “cunting” for more colourful replacements?
The hell it isn’t.
It was likely censored for a different, ad based platform first.
Can we turn this community into a Christian Minetest server for a day?
That actually sounds fun. Though, I’ve never played Minetest before.
I’m just imagining this community only allowing Star trek memes that have Minetest or Minecraft characters in them. It would actually be a pretty cool challenge.
It would get boring quickly though
“Oh how quaint.” Easily the best scene. Close second being Spock on the subway.
How do we know he didn’t invent it? Dr. McCoy approves
We call it sapphire.
Transparent aluminum is an actual thing.
Today I learned
I do love how despite the fact that the computer doesn’t have the capabilities of voice interfacing, it is nonetheless capable of accurately simulating the properties of a previously unknown substance based only on its input atomic structure.
That is some very niche software.
I love how despite never using a keyboard to do anything, he then types out 1000 lines of code in a matter of seconds with 100% accuracy.
Using only his two index fingers…
Nah, Scotty just rewrote the software as he went along. Of course, nothing says he didn’t also write in a self destruct to wipe out the program and the transparent aluminum, which is why history didn’t wind up changed by his actions.
We have transparent aluminum now. It was first patented around the time the movie came out.
It’s indeed quite hard, quite clear, and quite sturdy. It’s frequently used as bullet proof glass.
HyperCard was pretty awesome.
This moment has lived rent free in my head for most of my life:
Later I learned the guy playing the punk was Kirk Randolph Thatcher, a model maker at ILM and an AP on Trek IV.
He also reprised the character in season 2 of Picard.
I think apart from the Q scenes at the beginning and end, this Easter egg scene (and the punk’s post-Spock reaction to being asked to turn down the music again) might be the only salvageable thing from that train wreck of a season.
Although it poses the question of how bus punk could have remembered being nerve pinched - since the past was changed, Kirk and co. almost certainly wouldn’t have gone back in time to 1986. My theory is that it was so impactful that he felt it across timelines.
As the second season of SNW demonstrated, time travel in Trek is firmly rooted in the ‘big ball of wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff’ theory. Contradictory time travel shenanigans happen all the time. The random accidental time travel, sporadic deliberate time travel, perpetual temporal war, and ocassional bored god-like being have really done a number on the universe’s temporal cohesion. They probably have less of a timeline and more of a time-bowl-of-spaghetti.
It gives me hope that maybe Picard took place in the alternate timeline. Although it kind of has something interesting to tell I don’t like how Picard made the Borg stupidly powerful. Basically no one should be able to survive them and yet somehow they basically are a non-threat like 95% of the time.
That’s been a problem for the entire series, not just Picard. The Borg have assimilated thousands of species, yet the (human-centric) Federation somehow manages to beat them every time because humans are special or something.
this scene always cracks me up because like nobody on the bus knows that the punk isn’t dead
On them for initially doubting the magic of “The One with the Whales”
Star Trek IV is peak
“Dialysis? What is this, the stone age!?”
I loved that scene. And then when they leave the hospital the lady’s like “Doctor gave me a pill and I grew a new kidney!”
Too much LDS.
Mormons, not even once.
Sometimes that even happens to me. And the reverse happens to me with Star Trek V. I remember it being better than it actually is.
Kirk’s monologue on pain is fantastic in that one though.
It’s absolutely unhinged, but I’d be lying if I told you I could remember the plot of any of the others.
At one point they’re just trying to go home. There’s another one where the bad guy wants to… Ummm… Well he hates Kirk personally and this somehow leads to a brand new planet being formed.
See The Journey Home is secretly every movie. That is why
That movie is my fave, unironically. I absolutely adore it. 10/10.
“One damn minute, admiral!”
Fixing starships is easay, RRReading Klingon is hard!
