#star trek the original series

[trekkie-polls]

For bonus points share one thing you wish would have happened in that extra season

Edit: So many comments about Prodigy not being on here! Well, I am a Prodigy fan too. But I left it off because last I heard Netflix picked it up. Now I don’t have faith it will happen, but nonetheless there is at least one more season planned and maybe more.

On the other hand, even though the last seasons of discovery & lower decks haven’t finished airing, they both have planned end dates.

One of my friends suggested they go to Barbie’s dream house. Hope this is satisfactory.

Day 2 - touch starved

[daezedglownut]

Something I love about TOS is the audio mixing. It’s something common in media that existed before the millennium - I can hear every single word. No mumbling. No jarring extremes between quiet and loud scenes where I’m forever having to adjust the tv volume.

As someone with auditory processing disorder, it’s just such a relief not to have to rewind dialogue or rely on subtitles ;_;

The current trend of mumbling dialogue with zero intonation, and piss-poor mixing means I literally can’t watch movies in the theatre. The bass is so high it creates distortion - and we’re all just meant to put up with this???

Screenshot redraw? reimagining?

Fantasy big three st

Spocks royalty from the kingdom of vulcan and kirk is a soldier sent to escort him on a political trip to the Terran empire. Mccoys a medicine man chaperoning him on his journey (let's be real he needs to be watched at all times).

Very bad poetry captain <3

For fun, here are examples photos! Except transporter psychosis because they never actually show it. It’s just like in-world urban legend.

1. Transporter doubling - technically the same but one ineffably evil (shown: LD, kayshon, his eyes open)

2. Transporter doubling - one evil one good (shown: TOS, the enemy within)

3. Transporter splicing (shown: voy, Tuvix)

4. Stuck phasing (shown: LD, "Much Ado About Boimler")

5. Reverse aging (shown: tng, rascals)

6. Pattern lost (shown: first star trek movie)

7. Time travel (shown: ds9, past tense part 2)

8. Mirror universe (shown: tos, mirror mirror)

9. Incorrect coordinates (shown: tas, bem)

10. Bodies sent to holodeck, brains sent to station computer (shown: ds9, our man bashir)

Season 3! Episode 1! (Spock’s Brain)! Time to watch a guy lose his mind. Literally:

- Scotty’s got a new hair cut.

- I like her purple outfit (10/10 would wear myself, that and those boots)

- Nap time on the bridge, turn off the lights

- He’s eepy (don’t take his brain!)

- sleepy

- Diagnoses you with “brain is gone”

- The camp of this episode is camping

- “Then we’ll have to take him with us.” “Take- take him where?” “In search of his brain, Doctor.” Do they realize how bizarre this is?

- I’d say there should be a game where you take a shot every time they say ‘Spock’s brain’ in this episode but that would be irresponsible

- Kirk is having a lot of interaction with the bridge crew this episode

- Uhura asking the right questions

- “If I guess wrong Mr Spock is dead. Spock will die.” He cares and is scared

- “Life form readings, Mr Spock- Mr Scott.” Damn

- “The givers of pain… and delight.” Cool song title

- This is unsettling. Like worse than most horror movies. Imagine controlling your friends body with a remote because they don’t have any brain

- They didn’t give McCoy any warning about the trap activating

- Heating up rocks with phasers

- I love how Spock is still saying fascinating even just as a brain

- When Kirk can hear Spock’s voice again he goes up to his body so he can pretend to talk to him normally

- “Captain, there is a definite pleasurable experience connected with the hearing of your voice.”

- Sleep

- Sleepy

- Once again they gave Kirk period pain

- Sulu on the bridge

- “I think science provides us with an answer.” “It does, captain.” “Agreed, Doctor.” *all three proceed to kick the shit out of you.*

- They’re all violent and feral in this episode

- McCoy’s boots fly up

- Those buttons to control Spock are so specific, I can barely turn on a light switch if there’s more than three buttons

- McCoy is so ready to potentially die to save Spock

- Massive Migraine McCoy

- James “I’d die before I break the prime directive” Kirk breaking the prime directive

- THE OVERLAYING OF FACES AND MCCOY SWEATING WHILE KIRK NARRATES. IM DEAD. WHO DID THIS.

- This is fucked up. What the fuck is happening

- *wakes up from brain surgery and starts info dumping*

- “I should have never reconnected his mouth.” You love him and you missed him. Admit it. Awww the laugh he lets out as Spock just continues

This was… an experience…

I need to express my love for Scotty, specifically in the TOS episode "Spectre of the Gun", which is another favourite of mine, because, he's so fucking beautiful in that episode. Him and Bones...ugh I CANT!

Scotty also is funny as fuck in that episode, just necks back the whiskey saying "it's to kill the pain" then Spock looking at him like "😕" saying "but this is painless" then Scotty holding a face back because of the alcohol saying "you should have warned me sooner Mr spock"

THE AMOUNT OF TIMES IVE WATCHED THIS EPISODE JUST FOR MCCOY AND SCOTTY...it's an embarrassingly large amount I have to say
