Picard

[Fygee]

This season he's playing a Soong ancestor in the 21st century. Most likely he'll be Soong's son again in season 3.

Those Soong genes are really strong I guess. Makes me wonder if any of them realized that their son(s) were basically exact replicas of them as time goes on.

Also there is only one real way to take your seat.

Holy shit, I never noticed that.

This is honestly getting tiring though. WE GET IT. The Soongs worked on eugenics, Noonian created Data, yes yes we know. But there are other facets of Next Gen that could be looked into.

They shoehorned Soong references into Enterprise as well (say what you will, Enterprise blew ass even with Scott Bakula). Enough man - and this is coming from a huge Picard (character) fan that I want to keep watching the show.

 

[Arcademan]

Holy shit, I never noticed that.

You and me both

 

[Burning Fight!!]

Having only watched the Shatner star trek I can say I'm really enjoying watching the RLM videos on it

 

[famicommander]

Holy shit, I never noticed that.

Frakes had/has really bad back problems. He's always sitting in some weird position too, not just getting in and out of chairs weird.

 

[Lagduf]

Holy shit, I never noticed that.

I never noticed as well until someone pointed it out like a decade ago.

You never notice it because it’s completely natural for him to sit that way so it doesn’t look out of place.

This sentence seems contradictory.

Anyway, isn't Picard dead now? The character in season 2 is a robot duplicate loaded with a copy of Picard's memories. At no point did they ever even purport to be capable of transferring an actual consciousness between bodies. Just the memories. So you've got a robot programed to act like and think of himself as Picard. Wouldn't this premise sound horrifying to a huge fan of the character?

Ah but, no my good man - it's a HIGHLY ADVAAAAAAAAAAAANCED robot body that will age! And break down with time!

 

[Dr Shroom]

I watch this drek just to punish myself.
Turning him into a robot was the most pointless and dumbest shit ever.

Dr Soong had already done this before. Remember the episode of TNG with his wife?

She didn’t even know she had died which was sort of silly. I suppose if she had a human consciousness then she was a trans human and not an Android but whatever.

Is Picard a trans human?

Meh.

I want a new Trek show starring Captain Worf as a wise old Klingon, taking everything he has learned from his friend Data and his teacher Picard. Like literally being the voice of reason, but when he has to he’ll whip anyones ass.

Also Romulans as the enemy still?? Can we be over that? Making Peace with everyone is a huge part of Trek and post TNG the federation has only found more enemies.

 

[SouthtownKid]

I would like a new Trek show starring anyone, but not from Kurtzman and his gang of hacks. These are the same people who wrote the Transformers movies, and it fucking shows. It's fine for a dumb cartoon property like Transformers. I don't accept it in Star Trek.

 

[Dr Shroom]

I like how they went "guys, let's be careful not to contaminate the timeline" and then proceed to contaminate the timeline with their actions. Masterful writing, as expected from the guy who wrote "The Amazing Spider-Man 2".

Whatever, Q will make everything right again by snapping his fingers at the end. Nothing matters, nothing is of any consequence, I want Nu Trek to fucking die.

 

[smokey]

Season 2 is bad. I don’t even remember that Picard got turned into a droid. Must have fallen asleep.

 

[NeoSneth]

eh. I'll pirate this and see if they can fuckup even more than first season...
i heard time travel is involved. so that at least fixes canon and continuity nonsense.

 

[Dr Shroom]

Except it doesn't. Did you know that picard had a tragic childhood?

 

[LoneSage]

I just want to be in a room with Lagduf, slapping back some cold hard Mike's Lemonade, and watch The Inner Light. By the end of it with Duf screaming at me, "Picard lived two lives!"

 

[sylvie]

one time i had a dream that Data was my protective boyfriend bodyguard except he was also Christopher walken's Gabriel from The Prophecy. I have never felt so safe in my life, and it was just a dream. Powerful stuff

Brent Spiner has said that won't play Data anymore (after the character died at the end of season 1). So, the only way to keep having Spiner on the show, is to have him play Data's human brother, and his ancestor. It's hard to do a reboot of Next Gen, without Brent Spiner.

 

[Dr Shroom]

He can still play Lore or B4

 

[joe8]

He can still play Lore or B4

Yes, but that would be very similar to playing Data. So, I doubt Spiner would be willing to do that. The Data character isn't supposed to age, that's why he won't do it anymore. The same would apply to Lore and B4.

 

[Lagduf]

Why do they need Spiner? So dumb fans will tune in to see familiar faces?

 

[Dr Shroom]

Same reason Mark Hamill was in those shit disney Star Wars movies.

 

[sylvie]

There's plenty of younger autists to cast for the part right here on neo geo .com

 

[Dr Shroom]

Sylvie i will make you my number one on the USS Narcissa Wright
