/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Have you not seen all of tos as the series or movies or both? The movies may be worth a detour in your watching, they don't give much if anything away of the series and at least half are good, well 2 and 4 for me, I haven't watched the rest in ages except 1, that one is hit or miss for people but good sci fi. 4 may be odd to get into if you didn't see 3 is all, I don't recall the rest as much, haven't seen them since the 90s.
I have seen maybe 5 episodes of tos and I don't care for Shatner's acting at all and I just can't get into it. I've seen one of the movies but I can't remember what one. I know it was a newer one cuz it had data in it.
Well, you happened upon "Generations" the first TNG era film. Arguably the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th worst depending on who you talk to (I hold "Insurrection" above both "Generations" and "Nemesis," so my opinion is expectedly skewed). "First Contact" will always reign supreme. As for Shatner, well, his approach and the time in which he performed are part of a niche unto itself. If it helps, view their stories as poorly transcribed accounts reenacted by a local troupe of actors. Add booze as necessary,
