@Trekkie Not to be annoying about it, but that’s not exactly what the tricorder does. The thing McCoy uses to scan patients is usually not a tricorder. The tricorder is the thing that Spock carries around when he goes exploring – it’s kind of an all-purpose scanner. He usually uses it to find life forms, radiation spikes, or really anything unusual that he’s tracking.
Also, the new Star Trek movies will never be one tenth as good as the old ones. JJ Abrams literally blew up canon to create his own alternate universe to have fun in which is so lame.
@anon Heard it on Reddit before I heard it on Bwog.
Come on now…
@Anonymous does anyone really expect bwog, a student news blog made up of i’m assuming like 25 people, to be more prompt in delivering breaking news than reddit, an internet source visited and moderated by i’m assuming like a billion people? no. stop hating.
@Hang onto your panties because the next Star Trek movie will feature Benedict Cumberbatch in a leading role.
