Star Trek theater kid:
Honestly, that outfit is amazing and I’d wear it.
Trek: Magic School Bus wasn’t the best trek but the costume dept did some work
Dude’s skirt game was fierce.
Skants on point frfr
Never underestimate how well-fitting a good skant can be
I was going to say.
I’ve been under a rock with new Trek since s1 of Disco, when did Klingons get hot? Asking for an actual friend
Worf.
Woof
That character is from Academy, but HerbalGamer@sh.itjust.works is still right.
Ok fair. Hotter.
That show was fine and all, but whoever named him klingon spelled Jaden should be slapped with 3 chickens
This is weird to me because the “read him in the original Klingon” implies Shakespeare was first written in Klingon, and then translated into Eng….
Oh, now it makes sense. 9th grade me can rest easier now.
I believe the “in-universe” understanding is that “original Klingon” is referring to an archaic form of the language. But then, ol’ Bill did have quite the forehead on him…
I always liked to think that some klingons truly do believe that some tales could only have come from a klingon mind, and that the work must have originally been a klingon work that was lost and then stolen by other species.
Really, would that be the most ridiculous thing klingons believe?
Yeah, I always interpreted it as jingoist propaganda. They poked fun at Chekhov a couple of times in TOS for similar Soviet propaganda like “it was a Russian inwention!”
Basically, a culture so sure of their own superiority that they assume any great cultural accomplishments must be their own.
I think it’s poking fun at the controversy surrounding the authorship of Shakespeare’s plays. There’s a whole bunch of theories about who actually wrote them/who Shakespeare actually was.
I mean, it’s completely possible in the Star Trek timeline that Shakespeare actually was a Klingon altered to look human and then sent back in time for some reason. The doctors make people look like other species fairly regularly, and time travel is a regular plot point. There’s no canonical reason why Shakespeare couldn’t have literally been a Klingon.
So Klingon Lincoln was a theater kid.
Imagine Klingon honor and discipline being channeled into slam poetry and rap battles.
Yeah, sounds awesome.
Yeah, sounds awesome.
It is. Just ask the vikings.
You gotta see the K-pop!
I mean, we did kinda get Klingon Dubstep in the SNW musical episode…
Wouldn’t be funny if that incident is what causes Klingon opera to become so centralized culturally? Like, Klingons all have a shameful love of dubstep but the embarrassment that came from this being exposed to Starfleet drives them to go hard on something really “serious” in order to save face.
Klingon Musical Theatre.
Honestly, Gowron has HUGE theater-kid energy.
His eyes were factory-made to show expression in the nosebleed section.
the classic afterparty where they go to a diner and torture the other patrons by singing but instead of a diner it’s a seedy bar and instead of the musical torture they pull dishonorable customers limb from limb
klingon marching band was a thing but once the practice of stabbing anyone who missed their dot came into vogue there weren’t any klongon band kids left
Just because I love it:
https://youtu.be/CayMeza487MEither they are so dramatic they rarely live to see adulthood or it turns out EVERY klingon is a theater kid and thats why they’re all so dramatic.
