      What are you talking about?

      Elves are my incredibly emotional, just read up on Legolas reacting to seagulls.

    Mr. Spock is Aeldari, that’s why he can do the Vulcan mind meld, he’s warp sensitive.

    Had a friend who was in denial that Vulcans were basically space elves, Klingon space orcs and ferengi basically space goblins.

    Ah, I was under another impression since it seemed like the 70s were all the rage for LotR. I blame D&D gaining popularity, my college even named a dorm for Middle Earth in the 70s lol

    This raises a question in my mind. Didn’t Star Trek predate the Tolken definition of elf? Was there a fantasy setting definition prior to both that wasn’t like … Santa elves or some shit?

      The Hobbit was released in 1937, and The Lord of The Rings in 1954 Star Trek was released in 1966, and the original pitch was written in 1964.

      LotR was released a decade before Roddenberry even put pen to paper the first time regarding Trek.
