I've been watching the first few episodes of TNG.

They suck. :facepalm:

Anastasia Beaverhausen · #**127** 02-16-2009, 09:03 PM

So go to season 4.

A friend and I get a good laugh out of Peak Performance. At the end after Data has stymied the "master," the crew have this Leave it to Beaver moment where everyone looks at Data and laughs. We call it the "Oh, Data!" (Complete with mock chagrin.)

Star Trek TNG pictures.

Nice! :unnod:

Thanks, nice pics. Even if some of them were from the really bad movies.

Picard and Data showed up on an episode with Captain Quantum?

I think they were just on the lot on the same day. Nemesis was shot during the time of Enterprise, and it looks like Data is wearing his B4 outfit.

I love the street clothes on people. So totally 80's! :lol:

I love the pics of Alice Krieg and her spine. I know her actual body is wrapped in that blue blanket, but it's still hard to see.

Ronin · #**137** 11-08-2010, 04:01 PM

One of my favorites is the Nelson Van Alden Borg strangling Number 1.

Hey, don't judge me...we're all a bit OCD.

:glare:

The animated series that never was.

Is that Bryan Singer (director of the two good X-Men movies) in the captain's chair 5th pic from the bottom?

Ensign Steve · #**140** 11-17-2010, 01:42 PM

On which page? I can't find it.

Ensign Steve · #**141** 11-17-2010, 11:12 PM

Oh, also, I want you guys to know that I was playing with my iPad and thinking how totally ahead of its time Star Trek was on some things.

They totally called flip phones and thumb drives, too, but there have been some bad calls as well. :lol:

I wonder how much of it is prescience and how much is hardware designers taking their ideas from what they've seen.

Stormlight's link.

Ensign Steve · #**143** 11-18-2010, 02:46 AM

Apparently it is!

In 2002, having learned that Singer was a lifelong Star Trek fan, Patrick Stewart arranged for Singer to visit the set of Star Trek Nemesis and appear in the finished film as a Starfleet officer on the bridge of the Enterprise.

How

am I if I recognize that screenshot as being from an episode that I particularly like?

mulebear · #**145** 11-18-2010, 05:43 AM

The fact that you posted in a Star Trek thread makes your nerdage go off the scale.

Wait!

Aw fuck.

SUCK ON THIS TRACKIES.

Holodeck isn't a newfangled idea invention! OH NO. Some guy from the way back days thought of it long before anyone else could.

In 1420, Venetian engineer Giovanni Fontana proposed an elaborate mechanical room he dubbed the Castellum Umbrarum, or "castle of shadows." Sound awesome? It is. In a recent paper, French professor Philippe Codognet described it as "a room with walls made of folded translucent parchments lighted from behind, creating therefore an environment of moving images," adding that "Fontana also designed some kind of magic lantern to project on walls life-size images of devils or beasts."

Ymir's blood · #**148** 02-22-2011, 10:58 PM

Yes but did this Frenchman also propose that the shadows should threaten the ship every other episode? I thought not. :nope:

Anastasia Beaverhausen · #**149** 02-23-2011, 04:23 AM

So there's a site that allows you to stream all Trek episodes. I've volunteered to watch episodes, write synopses, and rate. It's a tough job, but someone's gotta do it.

livius drusus · #**150** 02-28-2011, 06:11 AM

Okay so my friend who had the seizure and cracked her skull is a linguist specializing in extinct Native American languages, specifically a north Californian one called Mutsun about which she is writing her dissertation. Guess who else wrote his dissertation on Mutsun. One Marc Okrand, whose 1977 dissertation was a grammar of the Mutsun language and who also just happens to be the INVENTOR OF KLINGON. Hell yeah.
