You’ll turn into us… slowly but surely. Sooner than later you’ll think something looks really cool and then look it up on YouTube. You’ll look up a few more clips then go “Eh, why not give this show a try.” From there it’s a slippery slope into bliss, my friend.
Welcome to the subspace fold.
I can already feel myself slipping, all these flashing gifs… there mesmerizing…
I mean doesn’t this shit just look super cool?
The disco-enterprise scenes were so cool
I frequently re-watch that final episode of Season 2. The visuals are fucking INCREDIBLE.
bro now I gotta watch both the captain proton episode and the last few disco episodes I’m never gonna get anything done…
Oh and the last episode Picard Season 3 with the crazy visuals there? Dope!
Really ? that’s so cool. Idk how often i re-watched this episode, From the moment Burnham jumps off that asteroid and glides / maneuvers trough the battlefield always gets me high.
There’s a certain flow in the visuals, combined with the music and ongoing brabble between Michael and Spock that gets me hypnotized instantly.
I also love that last fight between Philippa and Leland, while the corridor keeps centrifuging slowly.
It looks like the spaceship equivalent of otters holding hands so they don’t float away from each other.
Not far off really. They were lining up to deploy evacuation corridors between the two ships to link them and transfer shit faster. Space otters!
I actually was already planning on starting watching lol this sub def contributed to that. Remembered I never finished the Orville so started there, now gotta figure out where to start on Trek.
Thanks to this sub I became a trekkie as well, would say that while I couldn’t get into TOS, these three rocked, Discovery, Strange new Worlds, and lower decks.
Idek what TOS is lol the original series? My dad is an OG trekkie and had us watch some of that as kids but he didn’t try very hard to get us into it and hasn’t been following much of the new stuff either.
The shit in this community is hilarious even tho i havent watched a single star treck episode in my life.
This sub made me start on Star Trek TNG. I’m finishing the show up this week. I don’t regret a single thing. Thank you Lemmy!
Same, never seen anything star trek related but the memes here are pretty good
This is accurate because it’s pretty much canon that Spock never watched a single episode of Star Trek either.
“Crew of Enterprise finds out they’re characters in a TV show” sounds like a genuine concept for an episode.
… That’s kinda upsidedown Galaxy Quest.
Last Action Hero but it’s Star Trek
Ian McClellan is Captain Picard in that universe lol
Wormhole extreme?
“Our reality may be very much like theirs, and all this might just be an elaborate simulation, running inside a little device sitting on someone’s table.”
Sounds like something that cartoon version might very well do.
Check out Redshirts by John Scalzi.
I would think he would be well versed in all historical documents?
So he’s watched Enterprise and that’s it?
That poor bastard.
Posts from this community popping up from time to time was actually what pushed me to start watching a few weeks ago. So, a big thank you to you all!
Fantastic! Welcome to the franchise fandom family - large, argumentative but still fam.
Also, this is one of the nicest, least toxic, places to talk to other fans.
You have SO much amazing and interconnected content ahead of you, always so jealous of newcomers in that regard. No doubt you will enjoy 🖖
Do yourself a favor tho, don’t watch the animated Lower Decks show until you’ve seen a good amount of trek series, the series is FILLED with old and new trek references/themes/stories that while still very enjoyable you won’t get everything. Although perhaps it would work in reverse and as you see in old trek what you saw in LD as a reverse reference haha
I watched all seasons of The Orville. Does that count for anything?
That credit can be transferred as either the first season of Star Trek: Lower Decks or the Strange New Worlds Fantasy/Crossover/Musical episodes.
I’ll take it
Whatever you do, DON’T PROVOKE THE BORG
So many people chiming in that they haven’t watched Star Trek.
You monsters.
Everyone knows Darth Vader is Frodos dad so no need to
No, but he threatened to melt Marty McFly’s dad’s brains, and Marty later went on to show off his Wild Gunman skills to Frodo.
Frodo from Planet Vulcan?
I was kidding!? The fuck, it exists?
Do you really need to tell everybody?? They’ll never give me the ring now…
I have so many star shows to watch.
Like I have seen Stargate SG-1 but nothing for the rest of related tv shows.
I have Star Wars stuff pending I have seen the two initials trilogies tough.
0 from Star Trek except part of Picard.
I also haven’t seen Battlestar Galactica
What about starship troopers? Are you doing your part?
Would you like to know more?
And the honorable mention Space Balls!
Don’t forget Galaxy Quest
That I have not seen but… the cast ??? Alan Rickman , Sigourney Weave, Tim Allen!?, Sam Rockwell, Justin Long, Rain Wilson… Even if it is the worst thing ever just for the cast it must be watched.
Dude, get on and watch it! Because you’ll be watching it again later, it’s a great film to go back and just enjoy.
For note, some Star Trek fans consider it the best Star Trek film, despite obviously not being Star Trek. Whether that’s true is up for debate, but it helps demonstrate the movie’s quality.
That I have to watch I am not 100% ,that I have seen it fully, parts yes… but fully not so sure.
That one I saw, I never remember anything except the memes and something about a tattoo… I never remember shit about it for some reason.
Would you like to know more?
Can totally relate, I have a NAS media server and I am addicted to archiving media to the point where I have seen maybe a drop in the bucket of what I have stored to watch haha
Just do yourself a favor and like those other series, keep Trek on a list. If you enjoy Stargate I think you will enjoy Star Trek too, Picard is not exactly standard Trek if you will and doesn’t represent the older series exactly as they have more structure and more seasons
You will likely be alive for awhile (hopefully!) so you’ll get to trek sooner or later :)
Star wars is better
They both had great first series/trilogies, kinda shitty follow-ups more than a decade later, and J. J. Abrams then hammered the final nails into both franchises in the 21st century.
Although both have done okay as TV shows lately.
Seven of Nine: Skintight leotards.
Deanna Troy: Also skintight leotards, but less often.
It is because of this shit that I’m now finished with Discovery, Lower Decks, 5 episodes into SNW, 20 Episodes into ENT, and 1.75 seasons through TOS.
What an Inspiring place 🖖
We need a deacrynim bot in here.
TOS: The Original Series
TNG: The Next Generation
DS9: Deep Space 9
VOY: Voyager
ENT: Enterprise
DIS: Discovery
PIC: Picard
LD: Lower Decks
SNW: Strange New WorldThanks! I had no idea there were so many!
It is still missing some.
Like Star Trek The Animated Series, Star Trek Prodigy, Star Trek Short Treks and Star Trek Very Short Treks
Zinda, his face black, his eyes red
Wow there are more if us than I thought
The best captain was of course Cpt Janeway. Fight me
The fight is on.
Senator Kinsey, you rat bast-
Oh, excuse me Admiral, I thought you were someone else
Gr8 b8 m8
I think we all know the best captain is SNW Christopher Pike.
I think we all know who the best captain is:
I already voted Jellico, but here’s my second vote:
“Call me ‘sir’, goddamn it!”
Man, I like Alan Ruck, whish he’d been in more Trek.
I feel like this is an easily solved problem 😹
Seriously, how do you have access to the internet and never see a single movie/episode?
I’ve also never seen Star Wars, GOT, or any Marvel/DC movies. I kinda just exist inside my own little bubble. Honestly I don’t even know what’s popular anymore lol
Don’t worry, plenty of Trekkies don’t know/care about what’s popular either. That’s why we’re still making memes about a sixty year old series 🥲
Comic book movies are trash. You know whats timeless? A Voyage Home
Is that the one with the whales? Computer turn on
deleted by creator
I don’t know about anymore. Star Trek has been popular since the mid-1960s.
Honestly, all the memes is what got me to start watching Next Gen, and I’m so glad I did.
