What the Voyager finale needed was an epilogue - a short bookend scene after the plot has been resolved so the audience can feel closure. TNG handled this wonderfully with the card game in Riker’s quarters in its series finale, which is a satisfying, memorable bookend to a long-running show. Voyager didn’t get that epilogue treatment, which boggles the mind because it’s a basic story mechanism and only needed a minute of screen time. That show deserved better.
I can't head canon the TNG images as there's a lot of "hidden" filler stuff that's been found that doesn't make sense and are inside jokes. But I could rationalize Sulu's statement based on some of the background created in novels with his family history, cranes and such, and maybe he's extrapolating it. The early episodes were not the best to use for canon stuff anyway, as they hadn't figured lots of things out yet. Have we ever seen sentient plants since this?
Unfortunately, they don’t give any more information than I have already given, aside from the Peter David novels, which aren’t considered part of Star Trek canon.
Right. I think the real question is: How did Sulu know about it? I would love to believe that it was formless and Sulu just had a wacky belief, and upon hearing it said out loud it thought “LOL, OK then.”
I messed up and deleted the wrong comment. Sorry about that.
Original content: I think it likely that it is some kind of near deity like the christian god, or the Klingon gods that make an appearance. Not to mention the Koala.
I had a bunch of pictures of the Macs powering all the displays on the set of the NX-01 on a hard drive somewhere. I should go see if I can find them and post them.
They needed something that was just going to put a fake computer display on the screen and they went with Mac’s? That’s not… Exactly a cost-efficient way of handling that. Then again maybe they had some kind of weird corporate thing going on?
my guess would be it was the smallest/fastest mac they could get and the scenic design team used macs almost exclusively and probably had no interest taking a chance on a different platform. Just a hunch tho.
Here is Denise Okuda in front of her Quadra 700. She used it to make all the wonderful LCARS and other alien UI panels on DS9. This was her taking a break while working on the DS9 pilot in 1993.
Season 2 Episode 7, Those Old Scientists. Looks like this photo was taken while they were shooting the scene where Spock, M’Benga, and Boimler were on the surface of Krulmuth B, investigating the Krulmuth B portal, one of my all time favorite portals, which threw Boimler back in time.
Went to the page, read about it, and then to the Modiphius page to buy the book where it estimated shipping at $37 for untracked US Post Office?? For a single book? The shipping is almost as much as the book. Speaking of Star Trek, what kind of parallel universe did I wake up in? That is insane!
I have emailed my local gamestore to see if he is going to pick up copies. I will get it from him if he picks some up. He has the Star Trek Adventure RPG books, so I am guessing he can add this to his next order.
Yeah, shipping is insane especially if you don’t live in the US or the UK. If you have a local game store or one relatively nearby, it might be better to order from there. I bought most of mine from a local store and it was cheaper than the price on Modiphius’ US site and no shipping charge because I could go pick it up.
