/c/TenForward: 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.

You have blown my mind for today.

Goddamn. Genetics did Eddington dirty. No wonder he turned terrorist.

[–] angrystego@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

Let's also remember him playing Marco Polo - here in a scene with Leonard Nimoy!

The glave? Man going bald sucks

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I'm guessing it was a toupee in Krull.

He did an anti-Shatner.

[–] SidewaysHighways@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

What? Nooooo please say he was just young enough to still rock the 'do back then!

And really though I've always been so disappointed in the glave. Fire hand was OP though, why didn't the princess just have a barbecue ready by the time they got there?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

You're trying to apply logic to Krull. I just thought I should point that out.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well now I'm kind of scared of Eddington.

Nah, you make 1 little planet hostile to humanoid life and he'll fold like a shirt.

I can live with it.

Honestly? No, he always just felt like a nuisance.

Give me a scene where he's holding a fucking glave to Sisko's neck and now we're having a party!

[–] gregorum@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Wasn’t that the whole episode Blaze of Glory? It even ended with a bang!

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Awesome scene from an awesome episode, but that was Sisko threatening Eddington.

(In the voice of Nathan Fillion's The Hammer: "The Defiant is the glave.")

[–] sagrotan@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'd go krulling with him any day

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

No Krull for you today, Javert.

I thought that was the coolest thing as a kid .... we even tried to make one, which led to a curious discovery ..... how the hell are you supposed to throw this thing without slicing open your wrist or losing a finger.

For the record, the one we made was out of wood and it never cut us .... bruised us and worked like crap and injured the user more than the target.

Also, the fact that's the same actor .... AMAZING! .. thanks for this bit of info, always love finding out about who these actors are and where they've been.

The same way you pull it out of a pool of lava with your bare hand, I guess.

He ain't gonna betray me and join a group of terrorists is he?

[–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

They were selling those in the mall near where I grew up.
