Spock: Are You Familiar With Text Sun Tzu: The Art of War? Star Trek Strange New Worlds S02E08

[@matiasrocha317]

I love the chemistry between the dinner scene . Strange new worlds have the spirit of TOS in my opinion . + Anson Mount continues to shine in this season 🖖🖖🖖 .

[@DaveSomething]

when Spock offered to shut the guy up, I hoped he would *zap* him on the neck...

[@drmayeda1930]

It didn't work very long a debate means he would still need to talk but I'm sure Spock knows how to stretch a point.

[@CaptApril123]

Excellent writing. This is what made TOS great. I do enjoy the up to date SFX but I'm really glad they focused on story and writing.

[@jamiefoyers2800]

If you're going to talk war and the Art of War...then a logical Vulcan and a Klingon warrior are the best two teachers that you could hope for...I love the way the scene played out as an opportunity for one but as a cover to relieve tension for the others...it was a good episode this one.

[@brandenhellman4381]

I could not get into this series although I LOVE the ST universe. But this actor, the Doctor, he was sooooo great in Dune and I really like him here,….. I’ll give it another try because of his acting and character immersion.

Ethan Peck is way better than Zachary Quinto!

Having these actors is better than nothing

[@uncletaylorify]

@@kimpoy434 Quinto did a good job and wasn't bad....but Peck just does it better.

[@Matty272]

@@uncletaylorifyMy main issue with Quinto is he’s too soft spoken. But definitely had the looks right.

[@59seank]

I wish I could make out the dialogue.

[@Patricia599]

nice how he's "available" to Chapel but couldn't ever be bothered to be "available" for his fiancé T'Pring. What a guy they made him into in SNW. -_-

[@malcolmr3]

There’s a slight timeline problem. When Spock was this age the Federation was still very much at war with the Klingon Empire. Spock (and Kirk) were well into the Middle Ages when the peace talks first began.

[@uncletaylorify]

There were several wars and skirmishes between the Federation and the Klingons during this timeframe. This might be a peaceful time between those wars.

[@Patricia599]

this is Kurtzman et al. They have messed with a lot of canon, characters and timeline etc in SNW. It's likely an alternate timeline.

This star t?? .sounds like batman slipped on in

[@maxpower2511]

lol did they get Marques Brownley to act here?

A brief look into he combat veteran and the non-combat veteran, two different animals 🤨 never thought about Star Fleet personal have PTSD, I believe that Captain Liam Shaw of Star Trek: Picard is the only one that I can recall having/showing a lil (well a lot of) PTSD. he had a bad case of "Survivor's Guilt" Captain Shaw and the Battle of Wolf 359 - Star Trek Picard - 3x04 - No Win Scenario kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHqaiGZ3nqaJqdE

[@thefurrybastard1964]

@@jamesgoines7663It needs a bloody crew!

[@poiujnbvcxdswq]

Because they realized the Enterprise has roughly the same internal volume as the USS Gerald Ford carrier and 1/8th of the crew complement? Add to that the ship running either 3 or 4 shifts and you suddenly realize outside the communal areas and certain nexus such as main engineering and the bridge..you wouldn`t see anyone.

[@thefurrybastard1964]

@@poiujnbvcxdswq Nope, you would still see people in the corridors, work details moving about the ship. In TOS, the ship was made to look busy. And you have to remember that TOS was designed and written by people who had been to war, served on Naval vessels, some even designing such craft. The Enterprise would not appear deserted at all.

[@slingshotjohnny1]

This is such good writing, such good acting! If I ever get over my wrenching anti-capitalist ways, I will pay for pair-a-mount-of-$$-on-my-ass just for this character- M'Benga is THE most compelling PERSON in a 'verse of rewrites, ret-cons, and pre-verts. I don't need to engage in ANY "- Wars" vs "- Trek" arguments, having already worked that shite all out by myself once I realized that one had the money to make a pretty show of his space fairy tale and the other used stage makeup and props as guide-marks painted on the highways and byways leading us down the path of our current story, each another of human scifi's many wondrous explorations, suppositions, theories, and stories, NOW given space on the screen once lifted from the page...

[@JounLord1]

So why does this Klingon now look like a TNG era Klingon again?

[@jarvy251]

Because they realized the change was a mistake

[@Kielimies]

Emotionalists often a have hard time deciding. :D

[@ronaldlebeck9577]

In ST:TMP, the Klingons looked as they do in ST:TNG, ST:DS9, etc. The reason why the Klingons in ST:TOS supposedly look the way they do is due to some genetic abnormality that hit some colony worlds, if I remember correctly. It's in one (or more?) of the books.

[@JounLord1]

@@ronaldlebeck9577 I'm aware of the changes to the Klingons between TOS and TNG/TMP being explained as the result of a Klingon Augment virus that came about as the result of them using human Augment DNA to try to improve themselves thus causing them to look more human. Just wondering why after STD's Klingons looking like neither TOS or TNG Klingons, more like Orcs, SNW went back to a TNG style with seemingly no in universe explanation (at least none that I'm aware of).

[@stevetheduck1425]

Budget.

[@jayhopkins6990]

How long before this show goes back to the proper universe? And captain pike is in a wheelchair?😂🍁 😁

[@CaptApril123]

Well, I think it's a 5 year run and we're going into year 3 so shouldn't be too long now.

According to the show Pike has 10 years before the incident that puts him in that chair.

Bout the dumbest star trek I've seen yet. But im sure it won't be long before it's surpassed.

Why don`t you go back to something more your speed, I`m sure we can find you a channel running Sesame Street or Barney.

Yes…give it time. I’m sure we’ll get some fanTAStic examples of inclusion or diversity in some upcoming episodes. 🙄

@@Kilovotis Simple, the entire premise of New Words, Picard, and STD INVALIDATES ALL VERSIONS OF REAL STAR TREK because of JJ Fake Trek blowing up Vulcan because Spock failed to stop the lamest plot device EVER.
