The Romulans are on the cube, no doubt salvaging and studying the technology, so its probably both a Romulan and Borg story.

The countdown comics said the Romulans used Borg technology to refit the Narada into what we saw, so that cube could be the source for that tech.

Holy shit.

I'm sorry but a gold, non electronic, C, released first, is such a shill item. Totally ridiculous.... They know some people will buy it just to get their hands on a C.

Very happy someone built me an awesome one so I dont have to wait!

Saw this in stock at CultTVman Hobbyshop and I decided to order it. Im thinking about trying to build her with more standard Starfleet coloring, but well see. My big concern is the Aztec decals.

If Disney had actually planned out the trilogy, or let JJ do all three instead of giving Rian Episode 8, we may have a more cohesive story. 

 

Rian didn't want to follow the outline JJ set up for 8, and just did his own thing. Now JJ is trying to salvage his vision for the last part. 

 

Why Disney mismanaged one of the biggest movie franchises that exists is beyond me, all while also having the MCU being so cohesive and planned out. Its crazy how opposite these franchises have been handled by the same company. 

Why?

Its no more ridiculous than sling shotting around a star to time travel. Seemed easy enough to do, yet never happens outside of TOS or Star Trek IV.

Not to mention there is some real world basis for them

Season 1 also had one in the Mudd episode.

Im sure theyll be out for Christmas one of these years.  

Id love a Pike series on the Enterprise.

They cast all these characters, why not use them?

Great episode, entirely predictable, but still very enjoyable. 

 

Guess what just got renewed for a third season.

But the idiotic YouTube channels said itd be cancelled for sure? How could their inside sources claiming Discovery was a failure keep being wrong?

We've learned some small bits of backstory about Detmer (helm) and Owosekun last episode, not much, but I don't expect full backstories to be laid out for these characters at once. We even got some good Pike backstory. 

 

This episode also didn't seem to focus on Michael, it was more of a mix of her and Pike. Even Owosekun had a good amount of screen time on the away mission, especially compared to last season. It wasn't all Michael solving all the problems this time either. 

 

We don't know much about Ariam (Cyborg lady), Bryce (Communications/Operations), or Rhys (Tactical) yet, but hopefully that'll change as the season/series goes on. 

Its certainly a good, fun show, but I don't feel as invested in it this season as I did last season. 

 

Discovery this time has gotten me far more invested, and if something terrible happened and one of these shows got cancelled, i'd be more upset if it were Discovery than it being The Orville. 

 

I feel there is more potential with Discovery.

That was a hell of a premiere, what a solid start and awesome episode.

Im very intrigued by this new storyline, and cant wait to see where it goes.

Also gotta say that every character seemed more like able and better to me, including Michael.

Pike is great, and I gotta say I think Mount is nailing it.

They could make it that Section 31 is not as black and white evil like we've seen in the past, and expand on the organization and how they operate. Make them more morally grey. 

 

If that's the case, and we see Georgiou develop in both season 2 of Discovery and this into adopting more Starfleet ideals, that could be interesting. 

The Oberth will probably never be a ship I like, but this kit turned out really nice. Great work!
