If only there were some form of ‘Short’ Trek format where they could do experimental stories and episodes without having to commit to a full 20-60 minute episode

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

Akiva Goldsman: "We really wanted to do a 'TAS' episode, and for a bunch of reasons we couldn't quite get there. We haven't done a straight animated episode, and I don't think we will. Whether it would break the show or not, I don't know. Probably not."

The Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Animated Pitch That Will (Probably) Never Happen - SlashFilm

Strange New Worlds has delved into the world of animation before, but the Star Trek series' creatives have an even more ambitious idea for an animated episode.

It always felt like a missed opportunity that Eaglemoss didn’t make their XL runabout the Rubicon with screen grabs printed on the windows to replicate this

Amazon have removed the guns from their Bond posters, giving the tantalising impression that Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan think you’re a wanker.

As an actor, Tuvix should know that the answer to the question ‘to be or not to be’ is not to be where Tuvix is concerned

*Land in San Francisco*

*Open Bluesky*

*Tuvix discourse*

The more things change…

A shame because if there had been a call I’m sure they would have had plenty of volunteers to record some bits

I did like the use of Armada voice lines though

Very kind words!

I think (or perhaps hope) that our audience will grow now that we're settling into a more regular release cadence for content (with more of that content each time).

James Amey @jamesamey.bsky.social · 23d

Also featuring some website improvements:

- The readability mode button and chapter/article nav have been resized to be more consistent

- A footnotes section has been designed that features in some articles

- A redacted text style has been implemented for one article

‘This isn’t Star Trek it’s clearly just the studio trying to cash in on the popular name’

‘The ships technology is too advanced’

Disco haters get really mad when you point out that 90% of complaints are microwave reheated Enterprise discourse.

Which itself was often microwave reheated TNG discourse.

We’ve just got to move a bit more right bro

This time it’ll work bro we’ll definitely beat the populists by agreeing with everything they say bro

The only way to show we’re the better option is by saying the people they already want to vote for are right bro

It’ll work this time trust me bro

As a PSA to anyone in the 'Star Trek Voyager Fan Group' on Facebook.

That group not only allows AI slop that sexualises actors, but has an admin who (despite the groups supposed support for free speech) has banned any discussion about Tim Russ because...

Well look at their PFP.

The low gravity in holomatch was always great fun. Especially with the Torpedo launcher!

I can’t believe they’re still pushing the narrative that it was AI rather than VFX artists
