/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

Batman has had a crossover with Scooby Doo. Star Trek has had a crossover with Frasier.

Why can't we have this?

I mean, those uniforms are unironically amazing.

Because we had this instead. Twice. And no, it was not worth it either time.

It had to be awkward when Starfleet discovered that Picard was moonlighting at a school for mutants.

Know if any of this series is good?

I mean... Define "good." Cuz I love extremely stupid and/or over-the-top fiction that tends to come from crossovers like this. They tend to be on the humorous side; especially when it's a super unlikely if not impossible match up.

Then you will be satisfied, as both of them are stupid and over-the-top.

I just read this about that series. I think that should tell you how silly it is.

In the second issue of the Doctor Who crossover comic Star Trek: The Next Generation - Doctor Who: Assimilation², the Enterprise's holodecks received a systems upgrade and with it, a new Dixon Hill adventure, which Picard saved under "Picard Dixon Hill Seven". The upgrades included new smells. Picard then invites Riker, Data and Dr. Crusher to test-run it for him where once inside, they head for a restaurant when they hear the TARDIS materializing and mistake it for a bug in the upgrade. In the restaurant, they meet the Eleventh Doctor and his companions Amy Pond and Rory Williams, who mistake the program to actually be 1940s San Francisco, while Riker, Data and Dr. Crusher mistake them to be holodeck characters and that the holodeck was malfunctioning again. Riker then ends the program and they're surprised to see the TARDIS and its three occupants are still present.

Just the idea that the holodeck has 'new smells.' What?

Not giving Alfred a monster maroon uniform. :(

"Where was the other ketrecel white going?!"

lol but seriously, how could we tolerate a billionaire in the STU?

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

I feel like Janeway would approve of most of his methods. At least until he bitches out on the murdering.

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Gordon should be blue, Alfred should be light gray.

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

That would be a really cool crossover.

Batman vs the Punisher's one of my faves too.

[–] smuuthbrane@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Batman is given command of DS9. PLEASE

[–] nxdefiant@startrek.website 6 points 2 years ago

FYI, that's a subplot in Mass Effect 2.

[–] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I wonder how a masked vigilante like batman would function in the trek universe.
