Spock's only disadvantage is his human emotion. It is kind of ironic that his emotion is seen as such a weakness.

Kirk is the complete opposite of Spock, he seems gung-ho and lacks thinking logically. He has no control over his emotions. Is this a weakness or what makes him so successful?

Looking for the 'creature' reminds me of Blade Runner, trying to find out who is not human, and only being given subtle clues.

" I don't want the game to end"

Agriculture technology- drones

City life- metropolis

Replicator menus- food is 3D printed

Holograms all over the place

3D printing cells, heals wounds immediately

San Francisco- only recognizable thing is the Golden Gate Bridge, Paris- the Eiffel Tower

Most of the technology seems to be the same in all of these Star Trek versions, just better graphics

Violence brought respect, respect brought peace. This is a pretty ironic statement

Constant knowledge of vitals helps determine emotion- high blood pressure, perspiration, etc. It is no longer 'reading the room'
