I saw this pointed out in an episode reaction thread, but I’m pretty sure “Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow” marks the first time the Federation has been explicitly, on-screen referred to as “socialist”. Fans, of course, have been calling the Federation socialist/communist for a long time. I think it started kind of crystalizing in 90’s Trek, particularly on DS9 and with Picard’s little speech about not using money in First Contact.

It’s kind of a throwaway moment in the episode, but it feels big to actually use the word? I suppose modern audiences are much more comfortable with the word than they would have been in the 90’s.

This isn’t exactly a canon reference, but the “Noonien-Singh Center” was clearly filmed at the Royal Ontario Museum - both the interior and exterior. It’s such a distinct building that it really stood out.

It’s such a minor thing in the film and probably not actually my favorite part, but honestly I was super hyped for “Tabaxi mom”. I’ve got a couple Tabaxi boys so it was exciting to see representation of a less mainstream race. I spotted Tabaxi mom in the cast list on IMDB before I went to see it and was unreasonably excited to see her.

Yeah, that was definitely actually Toronto. The big area they’re wandering around in at the start is Yonge-Dundas Square, and I’m pretty sure this is the clothing store they stole from. The “Noonien-Singh Center” at the end was actually the Royal Ontario Museum - both the interior and exterior.

Kinda weird seeing Star Trek characters actually wandering around in an area I know decently well.

You don’t calculate the price of something by totalling up the cost to produce it and then adding a bit for profit - you calculate it based on what people are willing to pay. That doesn’t really change if it’s digital or physical. Some people might be willing to pay a bit more for a physical copy, but probably not many and you’d turn off more people by having the higher price.
