“The way they defeated the aliens in Star Trek Beyond is unrealistic!”
For your convenience, here is a list of some other ways Star Trek villains have been defeated:
- By Kirk reciting the Declaration of Independence really passionately
- Kirk literally fighting himself
- Kirk fighting himself again (this time while Spock watched)
- Fat tribbles eating the problem away
- Dr. McCoy applying mortar to an acidic rock creature
- Spock mind-melding with a probe
- Literal whales
- The power of love defeating V’ger
- Spock killing Kirk instead of having sex (Kirk got better)
- An omnipotent being got his ass grounded by his parents
- By doing literally nothing and history happened the way it would have anyway (plus there was a cat who turned into a hot lady)
- The crew dressed up in suits and threatened to shoot gangsters
- Kirk explaining birth control to an overpopulated planet
- By making children cry
So you see, Beyond is actually well within the Star Trek tradition of ridiculousness.
tag yourself im “by making children cry”
I like how without being obsessive about it or anything (and I’m sure many, many others) have low key over decades acquired enough trek experience to immediately recognize every one of these references. Also, to be able to extend the list to several times its current length, easily.
