Couldn't find wolves.  ;)

That's your take with anyone not agreeing with you.  ;lol


Did you ever wonder why so few (if any) ST sentient races had tails?

No, that's my take on GeoModder - it's possible for reasonable people, however, to be wrong.  Uno is wrong about Dune and he's     a bad example - never mind.


I haven't.  ST aliens tend to suck due to budget constraints and the unavailability on non-human actors who can act.

OLD Trek aliens were actually quite remarkably diverse, given the budgetary constraints.  Can't knock em for not tossing what would have been a nonfunctional tail into a costume. 

Now, TNG's decision to mostly bring on more funny foreheads was unfortunate.

Only in that they went there every single time, but yes, I got sick of stupid-looking foreheads, and agree passionately.

May be a weird forehead xenos, but I'd still reproduce with her.  ;lol

Though in all honestly, if you really want to make something alien you have to avoid the human form or humanoid or even Earthlike characteristics: (Two eyes, one mouth, two arms etc. and just make an entirely different shape.)

With Star Trek aliens, sometimes it got to the point of being the "plastic forehead of the week". Voyager was particularly bad about this.

World War Z Star Trek Into Darkness Double FeatureThe studio plans to squeeze more life out of its undead hit and space sequel. Paramount and a clutch of exhibitors are going back to the future for a week with an old-fashioned double feature of summer tentpoles World War Z and Star Trek Into Darkness starting Friday. The twin bill screens in 3D or 2D through September 5 in select AMC, Regal, Carmike, Marcus and other World War Z Star Trek Into Darkness Double Featuretheaters for the price of a single ticket. It’s the second stunt playdates for Brad Pitt’s zombie flick — third if you count a late-add IMAX run — following its $50 “Mega Ticket” deal that included an advance screening, a home video copy of the film, 3D glasses, a poster and popcorn. With more than $526 million worldwide, WWZ is Pitt’s highest-grossing film ever. J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek Into Darkness has banked $458.7M worldwide and spawned another sequel.


WWZ is panned as equally among zombie buffs.  So, double feature of crappiness foe your enjoyment!

Finally I wonder...
Since you all seem to loathe all the movies, all the series (save 1967) and you even hate the make-up, why spend my time in this?
Haters gonna hate, they say!
