    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    Enterprise canonized it, but it was an established bit of fanon dating back to the 60s. As far as I can tell it was James Blish's idea, and Roddenberry himself supported it.

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    Vulcan's primary is specifically 40 Eridani A (as opposed to 40 Eridani B and C). So Kirkov seems to be around Eridani B, making it fairly close to Vulcan but still remote enough that nobody bothers going there.

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    We see in Lower Decks that the Vulcan High Command has its own ships even in the 24th Century. That's where T'Lyn comes from.

    Happy 26th birthday to Skynet.

    Babylon 5 to be Rebooted on the CW

    Finally got a chance to watch this. Zathras got all the best lines. "Is why we call it 'the Great Machine,' not 'the So-So Machine.'" My only complaint was .

    Ahsoka - streaming on Disney+

    Baylan and his apprentice (and his allies) are exactly what the old pre-Prequels EU called "Dark Jedi" (back before the Prequels established the modern Sith and they kinda took over the whole ecosystem). They definitely use the Dark Side, but other than Silent-Marrok (who, as an Inquisitor was...

    The Robotics Thread

    So, uh, they're building a transformable mecha in Japan. Granted, the "transformation" isn't much, but gotta start somewhere. (I'd recommend watching this one sped up; it's real slow.) Despite being from a different company, there's a clear heritage from Suidobashi's Kuratas, which fought...

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    Also note that Starfleet ships are equipped with state-of-the-art sensors and data processors (because those might be life-or-death factors in the field). It's possible Enterprise can detect things at a level of detail that most Vulcan ships can't, so the Vulcan Science Directorate submitted a...

    I'm just thrilled that . He gets the best lines too. I'm also guessing that

    Christian Evangelicals - not all are made equal

    So he both was and wasn't. Typical.

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    There was literally a big sign visible onscreen saying "Toronto Eaton Centre." (And the news screen above it was talking about Lake Ontario.)

    Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    Rise of the Beasts just became the #1 movie in (Peruvian) history.

    How Old Were You When Trans Formers G I Started On TV?

    I was four when it premiered, but only a couple of weeks shy of my fifth birthday. I have literally been a fan for as long as I can (reliably) remember.

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

    I think it's more flexible than that; Star Trek has long relied on the idea that parallel timelines are actually parallel, meaning that choices are not completely random, but are guided by probability --some events are more likely than others, all else being equal. Something that happens in one...

    Star Trek General Discussion

    Indeed, that's the only reason they could write "The Good That Men Do." Part of why I love tie-in novels (not just Star Trek, but generally) is that there's a level of artistry necessary in taking the exact words of canon and finding spaces to tell new stories without contradicting anything...
