Okay, A -How would that at all enhance the bit the meme is communicating?

and B - Do you also think that every meme featuring Kirk should have some indication that he’s speaking in Shatner’s distinctive cadence? If it was Sisko, Avery Brooks projecting to the rafters like he’s in a stage play? What about Kate Mulgrew’s mid-Atlantic accent for Janeway?

No, because neither I, nor the person who made it I assume, are trying to appeal specifically to the whiny, shit tier elements of the fanbase.

I think. Kirk certainly seems unfamiliar with the Gorn, but they never really say it’s the first contact

There never say it’s first contact, but Kirk acts like he’s never even heard of the Gorn before.

" I have been somehow whisked off the bridge and placed on the surface of an asteroid, facing the Captain of the alien ship. Weaponless, I face the creature the Metrons called a Gorn. Large, reptilian."

However, that is definitely not the retcon Goldsman was talking about. He specifically says, “t was an opportunity to retcon something into a real monster.”

I bet it’s a Phylosian.

Yes! I was just coming here to say the same thing.

The Gorn aren’t scary because they’re giant Xenomorphs in lizard drag, they’re scary because they’re intelligent, relentless, and remorseless.

All I’m saying is that I have to grow as a person, hopefully there’s enough time in the loop for everyone to call their loved ones.

I assume this is somehow going to tie into the Project Phoenix that was teased in PIC season 3. Can’t say I’m exactly champing at the bit to see Kirk in era of the Burn, but hell, why not.

I do wish the construction of the title wasn’t so goofy though. The La St Arship,

The Kelvin timeline didn’t reboot everything. The Narada traveling back in time and destroying the Kelvin established a new timeline as a separate branch.

I wonder how much of a gateway Lego might be for young potential fans. What eight year old looking through sets of superheroes and video game characters, isn’t going to immediately gravitate to the Enterprise D conference room?

Child: “That’s where Data and Geordi explain things to Captain Picard!”
Me, wiping a tear from my eye: “Yes it is.”
