Oh no, not the gorn. Slow and tanky as an adult captain. Fast and deadly like a raptor as a kid and basically a xenomorph as a teenager. Gotta love the writers of the gorn 😂
I get why they changed them. You have an iconic bad guy, in a great episode but the speed and scariness doesn't hold up after 50+ years. I still love them though.
People don't get that the makers of Trek, when planning for its return, made decisions like - how can we do adult content (more violent) like Game of Thrones? So Section 32 was one way. And Girn like Xenomorph waa another.
There are so many problems with the Gorn in SNW. The first one is that no one should even know about them at this point in time. The second and most important point is that they were not the villains in the TOS Arena episode. It was revealed that if was in fact the Federation that was the villain since they encroached in their territory. They were just defending themselves. The first season was bad but halfway through the second season I stopped watching it. This new iteration of Star Trek that started with JJ Trek does not understand Star Trek. The Vulcans are a joke. STD was a incredibly bad and I had high hopes with for SNW but I am not sure anymore which is the worst. Star Trek died in 2005 when Enterprise was cancelled.
I disagree but everyone is entitled to their opinion. TOS at this point is barely canon. Which started way before Newer Star Trek. The show just hasn't aged super well. I do agree that the Gorn aren't just monsters and should be treated as a unique culture. Discovery is the most Trek of the New Treks. It started a bit rough but by the end embodied the values and virtues of IDIC and exploration.
I love this❤

@@TrekTrav when I was a kid, I was like, how did they catch the colonists? Oh yea, Arial bombardment and artillery. Yep that'll do it 😂 nice vid
@@TrekCannon I avoided TOS until I was in my 20s. I watched the TOS movies but the show took me a bit.
Thanks. Hopefully it does well.
I’d like to think that there’s different races of the Gorn and that’s why they look different through the episodes.
@@wyze513 Definately, like they did with the Romulans in Picard. Thanks for commenting!

Id say that. Probably not the level of Game of thrones though
The Gorn infants remind me of Gremlins.
Actually yea, kind of.

@@Trygvar13 I don't m8nd canon being broken if the stories are good and the SNW Gorn episodes have been excellent.
Another basic B trashing Star Trek because they can't view it in context.
Are you talking about me? Because I always discuss the context.
