This is the problem with you not watching thus interpreting things out of context. Like pointing out that a Klingon in the one pic has horns... they’re not horns.

Did you see all that weird leathery skin draping off of them in grotesque folds and layers, too? So disgusting. It makes them look bizarre and bulky and flabby...

Oh, no, wait, that's clothing.

It looks like a less velvety muppet. A scared muppet. Those prosthetics are way too smooth.

My problem with the new Klingons has always been that the amount of putty on their faces has made it impossible for them emote.

This made it necessary for them to emote like big brute apes that constantly shout and gesture instead of smirk, laugh and glare. Hair or not, they won't be interesting as long as they're not able to portray actual characters because of their prosthetics.

The best example of this is this screaming klingon, nice big open mouths, dead faces.

I think this one's fairly Klingon: https://media.discordapp.net/attachment ... nknown.png

That whole scene felt like it was actually written for Klingons, too.
