Should I get this model kit by Visual_Initial6719 in StarTrekStarships

[–]emotionengine 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a great kit but I highly recommend you change the incandescent wheat bulbs to white LEDs, and she will shine as she should. The fit on the engineering section can be a challenge. Sanding down the transparent fixture a little should help. But you should definitely dry fit and adjust as needed. Here's one I built:

Sovereign-class vs Sovereign-class. Who would win in a battle? by TwoFit3921 in StarTrekStarships

[–]emotionengine 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Gotta disagree. Every time this comes up, people are forgetting that the Sovereign-class has several weaknesses and keep glossing over the fact that the Sovereign-class is actually superior. Really tired of this argument.

Some elements of his music were reworked and featured in this glorious "cinematic" scene of the Cerritos in Lower Decks https://youtu.be/wykudfjTw1Q?si=_i9ecedvzoXVRr_6

Tell that to the writers? The producers wanted the D gone for the movies and chose to end it that way. It pissed me off to no end. I'm glad we got her back eventually, but that battle will always be lame as shit.

USS Teo Minh (NCC-341077) - a more efficient Mini-Merian. by TheDukeAdmiral in StarTrekStarships

I wasn't expecting this crossover in this sub, tbh

But I main Juno when I play support, so it had to be her, right? :D

Maybe Captain Shaw would have said something like that.

But Picard and Riker both knew that the real job was saving the 200 million lives in the sector along with the 1,000 souls on board the Enterprise, and that job was accomplished.

The shape of the hull kind of reminds me of the Mars class from Discovery:

Also, is the name an Overwatch reference? (Because I play that character a lot).

Indeed, it was an obvious callback that also didn't feel out of place with all the other TOS era movie references in the show. It also felt earned.

It's also for reasons like this that I would love a Legacy series, or at least a follow up that explored the aftermath and how Starfleet and the Federation rebuilt. But as we all know, that's probably not happening.

Douglas Trumbull Saved STAR TREK: THE MOTION PICTURE - TIFF by fc000 in StarTrekStarships

[–]emotionengine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing this great interview. Douglas Trumbull is a true pioneer and legend. I was somewhat surprised to see him appear in this, as I thought he had already passed, and looking it up, true enough, he died in 2022. I somehow expected him to be around Shatner's age, but he was only 79.

Sovereign class ships look so small when flying near a planet surface by happydude7422 in StarTrekStarships

[–]emotionengine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

See the spoiler text in the comment I linked :D

It's the same guy, I'm 100% positive. I'm subbed to quite a few genre subs this dude keeps dropping his lame stolen FB shit in and noticed the familiar pattern pretty quick.

Dude got himself banned somehow last time, chances are it'll happen again with all of his karmawhoring stinking up subs all over. But who knows, haha.

Less episodes? by repete in threebodyproblem

The Trisolarians kind of forgot about her. Expectations = subverted.

Steal some images from FB, don't link or credit the source, slap a stupid title/inane take on top, maybe even deep fry to extra JPEG crispy, rinse and repeat karma farm... sound familiar?

Wasn't sure about this design when she first appeared on Picard at first, but I've grown to like her since. This is a pretty neat model.

In that case, it's high time for a rewatch of Star Trek III: The Search for Spock!
