Sorry - we won't be posting for awhile. Have to go to marriage counselling.Originally posted by dread pirate jimbo
I wanna be a fly on the wall in that session.
"Wait, what? You're having problems in your marriage because of an argument about Captain Kirk from Star Trek???"
I reserve the right to be bothered by things that don't faze you,
and to cheerfully ignore things that bug the shit out of you.
I am not you.
Personally, I can't think of a more important topic upon which to base a long-term relationship. Matters of religious convinction are critical to a marriage's success or failure.Originally posted by Chimera
Hell is other people.
Yeah Kirk could be a dick. But I respect him for that.
So anyways in no particular order:Good ol' Harcourt Fenton Mudd. What a guy.
- Kirk[/*:m:1f4tus62]
- Spock[/*:m:1f4tus62]
- Uhura[/*:m:1f4tus62]
- Sulu[/*:m:1f4tus62]
- Mudd[/*:m:1f4tus62]
You know, that's a good point - he was never a dick just for the hell of it.Originally posted by PonderThis
ETA: If people can get to the point of needing counselling over which way the toilet paper hangs, I'd like to think we could get to the point of counselling over Star Trek captains. :mrgreen:
Fifty something posts and no one mentions the Horta!?!
Philistines.....
This is the most beautiful place on Earth; there are many such places.
Spock's mind-meld with the Horta: possibly the most laughably bad acting by a major character in the entire series run.Originally posted by chacoguy420

Saw the extended preview for the new movie. Shivers.

I've seen so much preview I feel like I've already seen the film.
I think it is telling that none of the previews show Leonard Nimoy.
Afraid that old ST references will scare of sought after young, hip movie goers?

Young, hip Star Trek fans? If the franchise thinks their fans are hip, they need to do a little more research.
I am pretty sure they know their fans are middle-aged and struggle to climb stairs.Originally posted by featherlou
Thus the hip, new movie.
Perhaps women will see this movie.

I predict a resurgence in Kirk/Spock slash fiction.
Kirk
Bones
O'Brien
Worf
Quark
Worf was one character who got much, much better as the years wore on. In the first season of TNG, I think the only line of dialogue he spoke, at least once per episode, was "Captain, I respectfully submit that our only option is to fight!" Admittedly, just about all of the characters in the first year were one dimensional, but Worf seemed to me to be unusually so. The layers of characterization they added to him through the rest of the series and into DS9 were quite good.Originally posted by Batman
I think I can honestly say, without hyperbole, that Kirk is the single greatest character in the history of storytelling.

This is a good list.
Needs some Spock, but O'Brien and Quark were sublime.

I like those 5 because they seem to me the most human of all the characters. All the others in the franchise were too perfect, too one dimensional, or too much part of their SciFi world.
Data
Q
Picard
Scotty
Chief O'Brien (he was an extremely well-developed character given that he wasn't one of the main ones in TNG)
Bad Spock from the Terran Empire
Picard
Kirk
Spock and Scrappyspock, also known as Data
The Borg (as a collective, they get to be one character)
Bonus Point : Uhuru. She was cool.
Spock
Curzon/Jadzia Dax
Quark
McCoy
Mirror Kira
I must leave this planet, if only for an hour.
They were all uniformly awful but endearing, nonetheless.
When the original show aired, it was the highlight of our week. We waited, no kidding. Mind you, we got 3 channels on our black and white TV. Still, it was great and remains so, in its hokey way.

Dax was boring.
