Why does the USS Discovery look more like a TOS Klingon ship than a Federation one?

My thought? It's in the future of the last TV series, which is when the Klingons and Romulans join the Federation in some of the MANY timelines. This would be SEVERAL hundred years away... like 27-28th century. The timeline is currently around the 25th. It would certainly explain the Romulan/Klingon design crossover.

Would it, though?

I mean that aft section is straight off a D7 or K'tinga class battlecruiser, which is from the 23rd century (V'Ger destroys three of them in the opening of Star Trek: The Motion Picture) and stayed in service through the Dominion War in the late 24th century. And this is supposed to be 300 years later?

I mean the Romulans at least had the decency to go from this:


to this:
in the same time span.

From here:

First off, Fuller answered the question of whether the Discovery, just revealed, was based on Ralph McQuarrie’s ‘70s designs for the Enterprise. Fuller said it was, but “to a point that we can’t legally comment on it until [our legal team] figures out some things.”

There is a reason they only used him once in "The Looney Tunes Show" and not at all in "Wabbit"(there was seriously an ep with a skunk) and that is because no-one feels comfortable writing him in this day and age.

You know, the way Marv talks about Goldie is pretty Pepe-ish, now that I think about it.

Not really? Pepe talks rhapsodically about the ardent romance he will show an utterly disinterested and frankly terrified female as he pursues her.

Goldie picked Marv and gave him sex and affection in exchange for protection, and yes, he may have embellished what he meant to her, since she was killed after their first night together, but it was his first real experience of love.

It seemed pretty overbearing in the way he thought of her, but maybe I'm remembering it wrong.

"The night's as hot as hell. It's a lousy room in a lousy part of a lousy town - I'm staring at a goddess. She's telling me she wants me. I'm not going to waste one more minute wondering how I've gotten this lucky. She smells like angels ought to smell, the perfect woman... the Goddess. Goldie. She says her name is Goldie. "

"I don't know why you died, Goldie. I don't know why and I don't know how, I never even met you before tonight. But you were a friend and more when I needed one. And when I find out who did it, it won't be quick and quiet like it was with you. It'll be loud and nasty. My kind of kill. And when his eyes go dead the hell I send him to will seem like heaven after what I've done to him. I love you, Goldie. "

Those are really the only 2 major quotes about her from him.
