    > Batel’s Gorn DNA infusion, the treatment from the chimera plant, and her earlier encounter with the Vezda are stirred up into a convoluted sci-fi stew to explain all this in a dialogue scene that tries with all its might to use sci-fi-y terminology to convince us this actually makes sense, but mostly just draws attention to what a whopper of an ass-pull it all really is. The overriding sense one gets while watching this is, “Well, they’re just making stuff up now and pretending it holds water.” It really doesn’t. But I have to admit that I respect the commitment to the sheer insanity of the concept, even if the effort and seam-hiding are lacking. In the end, it’s basically, “because we said so.” god bless Jammer. https://www.jammersreviews.com/st-snw/s3/new-life-new-civilizations.php

    > None of this “Universal Star-child” bullshit. Bang on. It’s the same reason I couldn’t stand Discovery. There’s a universe ending problem and you alone are the key to solving it? Blech. Fan fic with higher production values. I think Batel was a well written character, otherwise.

    Thanks for clarifying. I responded to the title only as I didn’t actually care what Michelle Yeoh thinks and just want to put this sad story into the dustbin of Trekstory. Georgiou was the only mildly interesting character in Discovery and season 2 was the only mildly not-awful one, so I had moderate hopes for that movie.
  • Why doesn't Star Trek use TrekLit for streaming shows?

    Honestly it could be something as prohibitive as not having secured film and TV rights from the authors. I can imagine that doing it after the fact is often quite expensive.

    oh gosh judgement rites… the fact they built a full on 2D dogfight simulator in that game was epic. I got good enough at it that I could shoot down Trelane. Spoiler alert — it didn’t matter, he stranded you on the planet anyway.

    It’s like they didn’t consult the daystrom institute at all! Haha Although tbf I think the port and starboard thrusters are aft facing. Spot on about the airlock though.

    Exactly. The moment the camera focused on the orb I knew that little twerp (RIP Gamble) would do the typical redshirt thing and pick it up.

    valuesubtracted@startrek.website CTV SciFi is still an add-on channel, which is unfortunate for freeloaders like me (I use an antenna which probably makes me a crusty old fart.)
