Michael Dorn: I'm developing a Worf TV series

[Dr Dave]

With of course.

 

[Cassie]

The nostrils must flare.

 

[headvoid]

The hands must be held together at the fingertips.

The Emissary is wise. BUT WILL HE GET WISE TO THE SURPRISE BIRTHDAY PARTY THAT WORF IS THROWING HIM? On a new CAPTAIN WORF!

 

[CaptainWacky]

Captain Worf should turn out to be a holodeck adventure because that's the only way Worf can be captain and every episode ends with him saving the universe then sadly saying "computer, end simulation" and going to bed.

Oooo...very Quantum Leap!

 

[Filthy Whore]

So did all the bridge crew from the original show end up being captains? That seems highly unlikely.

 

[Dr Dave]

I know Spock, Scotty, and Sulu obtained the rank of Captain at one point or another.

 

[Cassie]

I think Uhura only made commander.

 

[whisky]

She should have opened her hailing frequencies more.

 

[CaptainWacky]

What about Chekov? He went from being first officer on the USS Reliant to...whatever on the Enteprise again.

 

[Fuddlemiff]

In Star Trek III Uhura was working in the equivalent of a subway station (the transporter room with "Mr Adventure" was on Earth, rather than Spacedock as I'd always assumed), and that was before helping Kirk to steal the Enterprise and then fleeing to Vulcan.

 

[whisky]

The novel says she only requested that assignment so she could help with the rescue of McCoy and the theft of the enterprise.

Of course then it also says she beams directly to vulcan from there, which kind of flies in the face of everything we have seen about transporters by that point.

 

[Fuddlemiff]

I liked those novels a lot, except for all the scene with Scotty where he came off as an arsehole.

 

[CaptainWacky]

(the transporter room with "Mr Adventure" was on Earth, rather than Spacedock as I'd always assumed)

What!

 

[Fuddlemiff]

And not just any subway station, but one that was practically unused. Saying it like that I totally get why she picked that one now, but they didn't make this very clear onscreen. 'Mr. Adventure' calls it the "hind end of space" or something and Uhura pulls a face, which I'd always taken as "dude, this is my fucking job. It's a shitty job, working here in Spacedock rather than on a starship that actually goes somewhere, but stfu about my dead end old person's job".

It's funny how you can still pick up new things about films that were made before you were born.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Before YOU were born, yeah...

Next you'll be telling me there was a deleted scene where Kirk killed that Klingon later.

So where is "Old City"? Somewhere smelly?

 

[whisky]

Actually in the novelization of STIV it says the klingon committed suicide after it because apparent Kirk wasn't going to kill him.

 

[CaptainWacky]

NOT IN MY CANON.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

IS IT A PHOTONIC CANNON?
