one thing about me is that whenever a series introduces a species of alien/monster etc and is like "these guys are all evil. every single one. completely irredeemable. they love killing and destruction and they have no function in the narrative outside of being awful and hurting people. they're all the same and none of them have the capacity to be good." i will always turn around and be like "but what if there was a nice and friendly one"

#this post is about the gorn #gorn #star trek #the chestburster thing is a little hard to get past but im sure they can find a way around that #i refuse to believe theyre all just scary monsters who love killing and that's it #those things are WARP CAPABLE!!!! they've gotta have gorn scientists and everything to do that #they have to have more going on #love snw but the decision to make the gorn one dimensional bad guys after their depiction in tos #is like. :/#those lizards can be my friends. i know it #(<- words of a guy minutes before his jugular gets ripped out lol)#(but still. not a big fan of entire races and species being depicted as evil bc That's Just How They Are)#(i think star trek is too much of an optimistic and thoughtful series to have species like that but so far snw is proving me wrong on that)#(gotta just wait for whenever s3 drops ig)
