Re: Star Trek: Discovery - Season 4 (With Spoilers)
Not that hard of a concept to say: 'Kelpians evolved on their planet due to the high abundance of the E' verplen'ti and E'verla'st plants that grow fast on their world and is a super dense form of nutrition to the species'. There you go. Where is the energy that makes these plants physically possib...

Re: Star Trek: Strange new worlds
Anyone really convinced nuSpock feels like Spock? Quinto Spock is different enough to Nimoy Spock but does feel familiar. QuintoSpock is the best Leonard Nimoy-as-Spock impression in human history. Which is why when he's given a bad script and Nimoy is given exposition Nimoy blows him out of the wa...

Re: Star Trek: Discovery - Season 4 (With Spoilers)
Isn't saying that the Ba'Ul (the species the Kelpians preyed upon) must be vegetarian kind of an assumption that's not necessarily true? Like if you had a food chain like this: Plants < Insects < Ba'ul < Kelpians The Ba'ul could plausibly have the high food input and other things necessary to devel...

Re: Star Trek: Discovery - Season 4 (With Spoilers)
No, I'm saying that it's much harder to sustain a brain capable of intelligence on plant matter, ESPECIALLY at a preindustrial level. Sheesh, people have managed vegetarian diets since years with "BC" in them, especially in areas where religions like Buddhism are widespread. Is that pre-industrial ...

Re: Star Trek: Discovery - Season 4 (With Spoilers)
It's sooo stupid though. Human level intelligence nearly REQUIRES carnivory for lifeforms that are anything like vertebrates Wait, are you saying that vegetarians aren't really human? :lol: No, I'm saying that it's much harder to sustain a brain capable of intelligence on plant matter, ESPECIALLY a...

Re: Halo: The Series thoughts
Yeah literally everything except the stuff involving the Covenant chick is great. Her story is rote. Her and Chief is just completely unnecessary and frustrating. Then Chief and Cortana vs. Chief's buddies and Chief and Cortana have ALL the chemistry, so it's entirely unnecessary to give Chief a mea...

Re: Star Trek: Discovery - Season 4 (With Spoilers)
It's not that hard to make a convincing case for Saru's species. It's Star Trek. Even now, they are not going to go into meaningless detail how and why Saru's species became what they are. No more than Vulcan or Klingon or Cardassian or Trill or Bajoran or Andorian Are you going to tell me any of t...

Re: Star Trek: Discovery - Season 4 (With Spoilers)
He isn't doing anything remotely trollish. You two just have conflicting opinions which happens on forums. Surprise! I've had him on ignore for months to years, haven't replied to his crap even after I returned from the vacation he drove me to last time, and yet he keeps replying to my posts and bl...

Re: Star Trek: Discovery - Season 4 (With Spoilers)
Basically, McAvoy, you and I are disagreeing. I don't have a single emotional issue with this. My reaction to your posts is a big fat shrug. My reaction to the troll is very much not. So it's definitely NOT just having different opinions that's the issue.
