But I like how show differs from the classic series, at least Expanse has something to challenge with in terms of cosmos sci-fi theme | ||

It would be stupid to cast a female character with Kung Fu skills and knowned for "Chrounching, tiger, hidden dragon" and then make her a non fighting character | ||

Also in regards to Klingons why do they make them "Speak like retards" - thats a quote from one of mine Trekkie friends. They speak so slow and weird that every scene when Kilingons talk automaticaly becomes very static and slow. Also since language influance way we wthink i even wonder if specie talking so slow would be even capable of discovering electricity not to mention warp drive. | ||

It would be stupid to not include efficient martial arts in the training of a starfleet officer to hold your own against e.g. klingon warriors. Why do you depict females who can hold their own against males as 'masculine'?

I think the confusion and awkwardness concerning klingons speaking klingon is, to a huge extent, that we've never really seen this happening before. Not this much at least. | ||

Obviously it's star trek so we can just assume Klingons are surprisingly weak or women of the future are way stronger, I just think it's a bit of a lack of imagination to have the strong female leader also be depicted in a masculine strong way e.g. raw physical strength, rather than have her just be someone with superior intellect and leadership skills. For this reason I think Janeway was a very good character. But again, its fiction so who cares. | ||

I used the same reasoning to justify seeing Kirk use his double-fist hammer punch during every other episode of TOS. The Kirk ax handle was a high risk, high damage move in the old star trek table top RPG. You needed advanced federation martial arts training to even attempt it. I sort of wish the rest of that RPG was better. | ||

I just watched episode one, and I really didn't like it at all. I saw Seth Mc Farlana so I figured I was supposed to be laughing, but I can't recall a single funny moment. Am I just missing a bunch of meta humour because I never watched Star Trek? | ||
