star trek sex with shran

Star Trek: Sex with Shran
Premiering 2026 on Paramount+

>>214383703 (OP)
Was anything interesting announced for Star Trek Day? New collectables, throwbacks, anything to acknowledge when the series was good?

i dunno it's just like, if I was Archer, I would have seduced this man. i like the way he treated women. he shut down Tarah who was challenging him without being over the top about it and still looked strong. and he made Talas and Jahmel feel safe and loved when they were scared and vulnerable. therefore: sex with shran. in case any of you were curious as to the workings of my mind

>>214383923
Nope
They made some kind of Paw Patrol shorts but called it Star Trek

>>214383933
Yeah I just saw that. It’s neat how they’re trying to get tail end Gen Alpha/Gen Beta into the franchise. But just throw some TOS on for your 6 year old. They’ll love it.

>>214383933
>>214383960
it's sad how kids can't have their own shit anymore. it's always IP slop from shit their parents liked when they were kids.

When are we getting a Michael Burnham and 7 of 9 (Picard era) buddy space cop Star Trek comedy?

7 is the serious one who plays by the rules but is VERY promiscuous with the ladies. Michael is a loose canon but saving herself for the right gal. It's also a detective noir where we get competing voiceovers for different perspectives. There's also no men in it. Release date when?

What is the Star Trek equivalent of this drink?

>>214384001
Oh there’s stuff being made for children. But It’s all AI Slop that will actively shrink their IQ.

>>214383703 (OP)
Lego $400 Star Trek ship coming

>>214383703 (OP)
This is a good thread.
>>214384025
Lmao dude do you not live in america? We have loyal 9% lemonades here. This guy to answer your question tho.

>>214383703 (OP)
Paramount hires YOU to shepperd a new Star Trek universe from scratch, unlimted budget, movies and shows and to build new fans. What do you do?

>>214384045
A LEGO scale DS9 model would be dope.

Baseball playoffs start soon except for my white sox

>>214384081
the first thing I do is put the entire IP on ice for at least 10 years.

>>214383703 (OP)
>Nu Trek fucking sucks
It has its moments.

>>214384111
Yes it would

>>214384139
nah, do something in this timeline

>>214384200
I hate prequelfags so much

Star Trek is about the future. It goes forward, not back.
Post-VOY is the only way.
>but everything has been explor--
So make the show extra-galactic and now you have more or less infinite things to explore

>>214384220
what if they made a star trek that had stuff about the "edge of known space" or like "heat death of the universe" and really far-out shit like that. that's why there needs to be actual science fiction writers involved in trek again. these current gen tv writers have no fucking imagination.

>>214384200
Did they just have a bunch of spare TOS film costumes laying around Paramount that year?

>>214384307
The TOS writers loved the concept of "center of the universe" or "the edge of the universe", things like that. You didn't see those kinds of stories in later Trek.

Trek has always been on the softer side of science fiction though. It does have its moments where it really pushes sci-fi concepts but it's always been more about the human stories in that setting rather than the scientific rules of that setting to me.

>>214384357
Go back and watch the TOS movies and look at all of the extras they have in uniform in some of those segments and you realize, yeah, they probably did have a shitload of them sitting around.

>>214384381
>it's always been more about the human stories in that setting rather than the scientific rules of that setting to me.
the science fiction is the setting in which you tell the human stories. they are supposed to be going where no man has gone before. well ok they're in space. get fucking creative about what is actually out there still new for a human being to experience. that's the whole point!

>>214384482
Why do that when you can have space comedy and references to older (better) series?

>>214384556
This week: will we create new retarded lore retcons to explain why Spock stands shirtless sometimes to show off his muscles?

>>214384025
>What is the Star Trek equivalent of this drink?
Kanar. It's not so strong to knock Damar on his cloaca. But it's got a kick.

>>214384573
Flaunt it if you got it.

>>214384549
>The Binars episode but it’s underpants gnomes who steal small objects to power their ships

>>214384045
words can't describe how mad I am at Lego for pay-wall-ing at such a steep price

can I get a $50 set with a few torsos so I can make my own figures? you know, play with? kinda? it is a toy, after all...

Nope! FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS, suckah!!!
(and for that much, you don't dare pull it apart! you paid so much for it!!)

>>214384744
One of these but for those of us with just mild autism instead of severe autism.

Any anons remember the Vidiians?
Me neither but its sad they were unsuccessful in killing Neelix.

>>214384830
Of course I remember them, they're one of the coolest and most underused races in all of Star Trek

It's criminal VOY didn't use them more

>>214384786
>>214384801
Die mad uguu~

>>214384849
Don't think their makeup budget would stretch that far.

Do you guys think we'll ever get a Star Trek show that understood the IP and respects its legacy instead of the lefty star wars knockoff slop they've given us since the reboot movies?

>>214384850
I was at a anime-con years ago. This guy was creepy as fuck. Asking a group of girls back to his hotel. They were 14. Fuck knows how Vic managed to escape a prison cell.

>>214385005
The closest we've got is The Orville. Other then that, no. Because making something we actually like would mean admitting they where wrong, which is impossible for them

>>214385005
Yes.

Just through the law of averages, they will accidentally produce a good show somehow if they keep churning out crap, or they'll get themselves replaced, etc, and eventually... yeah.

>>214385005
No.

>>214385005
It's airing right now

>>214385012
Vic has been creeping on middle schoolers ever since the OG FMA dub blew up in the states over 20 years ago. He also made lewd comments to his costars but Funimation execs looked the other way. The good news is Sony gutted the entire company a few years ago because of their reputation for stories like this.

>>214385107
So glad I never watched dubbed anime

I was a snob about dubbed anime even in like 2001, kek
got a DBZ box set on VHS at a flea market in jap with subtitles and used to call my friends pleb for watching the dubs and still being on the freeza saga

>>214385162
In the 24th century, you could just go see the holodock and get your cock extended by 3 inches if you really wanted to

>>214385162
Is that why nutrek turned her into a lesbian?

Can Odo have any penis and/or vagina?

>>214385192
I do wonder how many gallons of cum I could throw around in the holodeck in my free time after shift before someone notices

>>214385012
>Fuck knows how Vic managed to escape a prison cell.
Shadow President and Eyes Wide Shut Orgy Choreographer, Vic Mignogna, is extremely well connected. Rich and powerful thousandaires owe him favors. Moreover, he is a master of disguise and carries $52.50 in cash at all times to grease the right palms. He is the puppet master executing The Plan.
The next step of The Plan is the Great DS9 watchalong on Heroes and Icons at 10PM ET/9PM CT. The Great TNG watch along begins this week at 9PM ET/8PM CT. Maintain vigilance. Trust in The Plan. Glory to Heroes and Icons. Death to the Opposition. Mignogna will be free forever. Marion Barry was right: bitch set him up.

>>214385230
He can't have mine. I'm using it.

>>214385231
I meant going to The Doctor rather than the holodeck.

Really, the amount of plastic surgery they've shown and its quality in the show, being able to make Picard or Troi Romulan, how great the Order did turning Kira into a Cardassian, or Dukat into a Bajoran, etc, plastic surgery would probably be very common... or, would it? Does it contradict Federation values too much, to be so tied into vanity?

It'd be an interesting topic for an episode if handled correctly. I do think plastic surgery is a real societal problem for us right now so addressing it through Trek might work.

>>214385341
>It'd be an interesting topic for an episode if handled correctly. I do think plastic surgery is a real societal problem for us right now so addressing it through Trek might work.
what if cardassian spoons are supposed to be filled with spoonal fat and spoonal fat removal is what makes them hollow

How do you feel about other /trek/ posters?

>>214385005
SNW was like half good. It built up the characters pretty well and I actually understood them better after 1 season than I did any of the STD bridge crew after like 5 years.

But then season 2 and season 3 have been garbage

Isn't it interesting how Ferengi are the only species that utilize their makeup as a prop?
No Klingon ever runs his fingers on his ridges, our Cardassian strokes his neck menacingly

those conventions have that system down to a science

they charge that much for your benefit! because it's worth it! bit players, cameos, ensign-nobody-who-died-a-cool-way gets cheap photo ops, but the real stars are worth way more than that!

honestly $50 is kinda cheap for Garak, I've seen the Supernatural dudes pulling in $150-$200+ per photo

>>214386966

Are Bajorans supposed to be Jews or Palestinians?

>>214387374
What made me think of Palestine was just the dynamic of the host government earnestly doing everything within reason to be accommodating and the relocating group just refusing to budge on anything.

>>214387632
You choose

>>214387632
They’re Palestinians. The Cardies are the Israelis. Hence being lizards. DS9 is a U.N. Embassy placed right outside Gaza.

>>214387660
When were the Palestinians ever accommodating?

>>214387682
Cardies aren't as bad as Israelis

>That episode where Dukat blew up a Bajoran hospital

clinton era, camp David accords

>>214387660
That also could apply to plenty of annoying primitive refugees.
If the episodes were specifically written about one situation or conflict, they would lose all subtext and there would be no point in discussing them 30 years after the fact

>>214387632
Bajorans = Native American Jews
Cardassians = Nazi Southern Slave Owners

>>214387782
>Clinton era
So that would be post-Soviet collapse, who were the main benefactors of the PLO & Arab secularists. the PLO was out of money at the time so they were forced to acquiesce to some extent. But overall they gained a lot, and lost very little so it was a net gain for the PLO
You can link between the collapse of the USSR, and the whole Middle East moving under American stewardship pretty easily.

Everybody always talks about how great his wife, Kitty, is as a human being. They all love her.

>>214389577
I think I read he helped Grodenchik get his part as Rom after he'd auditioned for Quark and felt like he blew it.

>>214389614
Wasn't he on TNG?

>>214389577
>>214389600
>>214389614
and he hates the cast of Seinfeld with a burning passion.

>>214389622

why

>>214389577
>>214389600
>>214389614

Might explain how he got elected SAG president, you need to be well regarded
>>214389634
To be fair, Seinfeld is an awkward aloof jerk who also is Shadow President Mignogna-tier creepy with younger women, Larry David is such an insufferable prick that he picked a fight with a Muppet, and the kind of cast they'd hire would probably be equally clannish.

>>214389741
Larry David is one of the most based men to ever live but he's definitely not an easy person to be around socially, kek

>>214389665
>dukat's tirade about how he hates their ugly wrinkled noses

to be fair, the bajoran noses look extra ugly after this trend of wrinccal fat removal

>"I originally read for the role of Quark," says Max Grodénchik, previously seen in the Next Generation episodes "Captain's Holiday" and "The Perfect Mate." But Grodénchik thought that the reading went poorly. "I was so depressed that I went out and sat on the steps at the Gower Street walk-in entrance to the studio. And in a little while Armin came out and befriended me. He said 'You know, I think it was between you and me for the role of Quark.' And I said 'How do you know?' And he said, 'Well, we were the only two short people there.'" The pair went on to discuss all things Ferengi, with Shimmerman mentioning the planned character of Nog, and the fact that he'd heard Nog would have a father. Shimmerman suggested that if Grodénchik didn't get the role of Quark, that Nog's father might be a nice part. After Shimmerman was cast as Quark, Grodénchik says, "Armin actually recommended me for Rom, and they gave it to me."

a real human bean

>>214389973
He really got an O'Brien style role upgrade going from Nog's Father to the most important character in the series Rom the genius Rom the grand nagus Rom the lady killer

>>214390015
He invented the minefield that saved the Alpha Quadrant

I think they're trying too hard to be family friendly. I miss the episodes where they would get tortured or get mind raped by alien ghosts. the new shit is just shitty action. Gif is unrelated.

This looks great. what encoding is it ?

>>214390229

>>214390254
So do I, but a certain clique of mean-spirited seethers here are desperate to meme their opinions down other people's throats. I wasn't even going to watch SNW, but did so after hearing them whine about it for the gorillionth time.

Kira did nothing wrong

This is a great scene

>>214390254
I say this ironically and call anyone who disagrees with me a geezer

>>214390294
VP8. Old webm so I probably used webm4retards which is just a ffmpeg gui with avisynth script features. I switched to VP9 handbrake a while back since it gives more predictable bitrates and plays nicer with DS9's weird dvd stuff that desyncs the subtitles. I try not to overthink it and just set the settings to VP9 10-bit and veryslow presets and it usually takes like an hour to encode a minute of video but the result is usually as good as I could expect.

Course: Oblivion has got to be one of the most depressing episodes period.

>>214390066
acksually... those mines pulled power out of the area of space around the wormhole the Denorios Belt in order to replicate, so they are probably very limited in the areas they could be used

>>214390608
>It was made for CRTs
Is that supposed to make me feel better? none of us are watching on CRT

Voyager used CGI, right? Why isn't it in HD? Is it because some of the effects were still analog?

oh its just the DVDs. I think their bitrate is twice that of what you can get on streaming. With some decent upscaling in the video player and you can get something that looks perfectly fine on modern TVs if you ask me. Main problem is stuff like extremely aggressive noise because of how dark the general show is which means they had to film with low sensitive film which just had more noise regardless of what you do. I think that if Paramount tried to remaster the entire show they'd fuck it up by trying to use digital noise reduction.

wasn't shot on film like tng was

>>214390648
>>214390659
You know, we might actually get these remasters in the near future but it's a 90% chance it will be an AI job

how did they do the clips they used in the documentary? does anyone know?

>>214390648
the tos and tng remasters were flops so they never did it for anything else, plus they'd have to redo all the cgi effects from scratch since they don't have the originals

>>214390702
>redo all the cgi effects from scratch since they don't have the originals
that would be the cheapest part honestly

What the fuck

>>214390700
The film is just a scan from negatives, and the CGI is completely redone.
>>214390721
That's not cheap

>>214390670
>wasn't shot on film like tng was
Yes it was

>>214390702
I heard Paramount sold off all their scanning equipment and fired all the techs too.

>>214390678
then its not a remaster, just an upscale. Pedantic semantics yes but the entire point of a remaster is that you actually go find the original negatives and create a completely new digital master scan and perhaps even completely new film prints for archival purposes.

>>214390766
DS9/VOY are basically two shows interlaced. Film and SD CGI
A remaster would be very intensive work but an upscale would be feasible

>>214390464
I always wondered, why not replicate some body armor if you're facing Klingons? It won't stop energy weapons but it'll keep you from getting stabbed to death.

>>214391058
Everyone has the belt force fields from TAS

>>214391058
It has nothing to do with Klingons, but don't the marines in Enterprise wear body armor?

>>214390700
Paramount still has the actual negatives and used those. They could start doing the remaster tomorrow. The difference is that for a documentary they can just handpick specific scenes and pick specific segments of those and scan that. A guy picks up maybe two dozen reels from the archives and finding the scenes in those and scanning them.

For a complete remaster you're looking at scanning about a million feet of 35mm film negatives and going over each frame one by one to find scanning defects. Each episode is like three or four reels, assuming they're edited together as a complete episode, which they're not. And then they have to render all the CGI again and edit in all the CGI onto those negatives. The fact that anyone does this with old shows at all is honestly mindblowing. Paramount-Skydance would probably have to be merged with Amazon or Apple for there to be a budget to do this with voyager and deep space nine.

Thoughts?

As Trek podcasts go I've only listened to the Delta Flyers, the Shuttlepod Show and Open Pike Night.

>>214391319
>Open Pike Night
never heard of it

>>214391193
And even for the doc. it still cost a considerable amount, it was a stretch goal from their fundraiser

One of the biggest issues is that the film is completely unorganized. They have to rescan all of the film, organize it and then re-edit everything back together to create an episode. That means they get a lot of unused footage and also have to constantly reference back to the TV broadcast to even figure out how everything was edited together.

>>214391303
>>214391319
For me it's V'ger Please

>>214391464
Couldn't you just pay like 3 editors 200k a year to slap that shit together? That'd be pretty low budget. How much can it really cost versus updating something to their streaming library?

>>214385737
Which episode?

what about a /trek/ podcast? what could we name it?

>>214391607
We could have a Guest Schizo every week to ramble incoherently for an hour!

Artie you know the kanar makes you emotional

If i remember, I feel like voy used a lot more cgi on the reg then ds9

>>214391593
How can you people love DS9 and still not realize if there's no PROFIT in something it's now worth doing!

>>214391593
I'll do it for 80k

>>214391593
>How much can it really cost versus updating something to their streaming library?
What do you even mean by this

I kinda like how early Enterprise feels like a cross between Trek and Firefly.

>>214385737
Didn't they bring back the Sphere Builders in one of the TNG movies? I remember Worf in a silly EVA suit with a SNES Super Scope on one, I think.
They're also a major part of the plot of multiple acts of the STO story.

>>214391875
>minor spelling mistake

>>214391985
NOOOOOOOOOo

>>214391967
>Didn't they bring back the Sphere Builders in one of the TNG movies?
Nope
>I remember Worf in a silly EVA suit with a SNES Super Scope on one, I think.
That was First Contact, where he's fighting Borg on the Ent-E's deflector dish

There's the sphere builders from the future in ENT, but there's no connection between them and the mystery guys who built the dyson sphere in Relics aside from them both being spheres

>>214391607

>>214392069
what is this, a turbolift for ants?

I caught an episode of Prodigy when I was up late drinking, and I'll be damned bros, it was actually a good episode of trek. Most of the alien kids seemed fairly annoying, I probably happened to catch the only bearable episode, Janeway got like 75% of the screentime. I won't spoiler anything but it was the episode Time Amok

>>214392200
you "caught" it? is it on cable or something? even if it was why would it be on "late"? are you embarrassed to have seeked it out to watch on purpose or something?

>>214392049
Ah, shit, you're right. At least there's a couple books and the previously mentioned STO plots, which make them basically entirely responsible for the ability to quickly reach the other quadrants.

>>214392236

thank you. I knew there was a word

>>214392236
The Canadian Scifi channel plays Trek until like 3am on weekdays, and on that day the episodes were off by a half hour one day for whatever reason and they filled in the half hour gap at the end with an episode of Prodigy.

>>214392335
>*on that day the episodes were off by a half hour for whatever reason
I'm not ESL I'm just drunk

Odd choice to choose a kids show at 2:30am instead of LD

I've watched through multiple seasons of Lower Desks, I don't even mind that show, but this Prodigy episode absolutely mogged the shit out of everything I've seen from it. Kind of embarassing desu

>>214383703 (OP)
Saw this hypocrite jackass nig out on the ancestry reveal show when he found out his great uncle or some sh was white. Fuck Geordi.

>>214392200
Yeah I've already seen Time Amok. It was a clever Star Trek conundrum episode. I'm currently about halfway through season 1 on Prodigy. On my fucking long ass "watch all the star trek" chronological viewing journey. Prodigy is aight. Lower Decks was aight. Not looking forward to seeing Picard again or seeing STD seasons 3-5 again. Prodigy is pretty much the last aight Trek of the entire journey. And yes, aight is a scientific rating. It's just above meh and just below decent.

>>214391319
What would you recommend? So far most trek podcasts I've seen are basically "we review each episode series by series and discuss how problematic they are now"

Guys, is it wrong to want to fuck T'Ana?

It'd be wronger if you didn't

>>214392665
I'm on the episode "Masquerade" and they brought back Ronny Cox as Jellico for a cameo (he's an admiral now) as well as Billy Campbell as Okana (he's still just a space pirate)

>>214393718
Oh neat I just checked IMDb and apparently Ronny Cox is in a fair number of episodes. Fun. I still rate the show as meh but it's cool seeing old characters again.

Remember when the Dykeheads flipped out and trashed the place because Prodigy had a decent mid-season finale that /trek/ thought was okay?

>>214392286
So many goddamn drummers onboard, the Enterprise needs a handicapped sticker.

>>214391303
Avery Brooks should do one where it's just an hour of schizo ramblings tangentially related to the subject at hand.

>>214391193

I think they announced they lost money on the TNG remaster, and that was all shot in 35mm, from the sets to the miniatures. "All" they had to do was a clean digital transfer of the old film, then redo the old video VFX which is pretty easy with modern computers then cut it all together to the same time code

You could understand why they'd be unenthusiastic about a project that would also require not only the same amount of work as TNG for all the 35mm footage and video FX, but also then paying to recreate all of the pure-CG scenes from the later seasons, from scratch, to the exact split second without any of the assets or programming, for a ratings disappointment spinoff, when they lost money on a much easier transfer for what was the #1 show when it was on the air

You could probably sell them on an AI upscale, and within a year or so that might actually be pretty good if you had high-def photos of the actors and ships and etc to train the models on, and then just have them upscale the old video

>>214393748
I 'member

>>214393748
Prodigy was turning into a decent Star Trek toon at the same time Lezzie Dykes was busy with its lesbian plots.

>>214393748
imagine a show for manchildren getting mogged by a show for children

Lower Decks is excellent trek. Fuck OP he's a faggot don't forget.

They snubbed him when he was playing one of Kramer's friends. They did something similar with a fat dude who was in another episode, so I can believe it.

>>214393856
>he invites actors who played minor or background characters and just makes them progressively more uncomfortable for an hour
