WEAREBORG4102 0 Posted April 23, 2004 Recall the trial in Star Trek VI the Undiscovered Country. Remember the Klingon who was representing Kirk and McCoy? It seemed that he looked lie Worf. In the ending credits I saw the name Michael Dorn next to what I thought was worf could it be WORF??? If that were so it would make him ancient in the TNG movies.

fenriz275 0 Posted April 23, 2004 (edited) I think it's simpler to assume it could have been an ancestor of Worf's, perhaps his grandfather. I was under the impression Worf was about the same age as Riker, maybe a little younger. Edited April 23, 2004 by fenriz275 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I think they said the name of that Klingon that Dorn played. I think it involved the name Mogh or something, putting him in Worf's ancestory. try to find the script for the movie I guess Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeanway 0 Posted April 23, 2004 (edited) UH uuuh,no, it's Worf, I'm watching it right now. B) I'll check the credits too. I don't care how old he is anyway, Love is ageless B) Edited April 23, 2004 by Jeanway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A l t e r E g o 9 Posted April 23, 2004 That was Michael Dorn playing Worf's ancestor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Odie 0 Posted April 24, 2004 He was Worf's grandfather. His grandfather's name was Colonel Worf. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jack_Bauer 1 Posted April 24, 2004 According to Star Trek.com Worf was born on Dec. 9, 2340. This would mean he would have been 39 in Star Trek Nemesis. December 9th is also Michael Dorn's birthday. The rest of the TNG characters have birthdays identical to the actors who played them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Esther 0 Posted April 24, 2004 Worf was raised from human parents, and they didn't look to be over a century old. At most they looked sixty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blitzkrieg1110 0 Posted May 7, 2004 yea i was a little confused too cause i heard them say worf but i knew he couldnt be that old. at least that solves the dilemma!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Korthedaharmaster 0 Posted May 28, 2004 Read the 3rd lost era book althgough not canon gives talks of worfs grandad and what happened at Khitimore with the Rommies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prometheus 0 Posted June 3, 2004 I think it was an early attempt to have a character from one series appear in another series's movie: like Ethan Phillips in First Contact. Im sure Worf was named after his grandfather but! If Worf was found as a baby, how did his human parents know to name him 'Worf'? And if there was a way of scanning then shouldnt there have been a way of returning him to his family ie his brother, nanny, etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adm. stickler 0 Posted June 3, 2004 no it wasnt Worf. In the Star Trek Lost Era, it says that it is worf's grandfather. It looks like Worf because Maichal Dorn played him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt 0 Posted September 13, 2004 We know he couldn't really be any older than Riker or Geordi, remember that he grew up with his human parents and they've been on the show looking non too old. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pathfinder 101 0 Posted October 12, 2004 I have absolutely no idea how old Worf is. He definetly not over 100. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Takara_Soong 4 Posted October 12, 2004 According to startrek.com, the Earth equivalent of Worf's date of birth is December 9, 2340. By comparison, Will Riker and Geordi La Forge have birth years of 2335 and Tash Yar is 2337. Even Deanna Troi's Earth equivalent birth year is 2336. Not including Wesley, Worf is the baby of the group. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KayTroi 0 Posted November 8, 2004 Yes, I agree, Michael Dorn played the character of Col. Worf. He is the grandfather of Worf. Worf is younger than Riker, Troi, Yar and LaForge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was 7 or 8 when they found him. In the TNG episode "Birthright, Part I," an older Klingon who knew Worf's father told Worf about a time that they had taken Worf on a hunt. Worf got overly eager and grabbed the prey with his bare hands and gotten mauled. I know Klingons are tough, but I don't think Klingon babies run around grabbing dangerous animals. Except maybe their pet targs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wacko 0 Posted November 8, 2004 I recall reading that Michael Dorn would play the Klingon attorney that defended Kirk and McCoy, before "The Undiscovered Country" came out, and that he would be an ancestor of Worf's, somehow. I think, that was before it was discerned in TNG whether Worf was a family name or a given name however. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Star Trek Fan 0 Posted November 16, 2004 That would be Colonel Worf, father of Mogh, Grandfather of Worf. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt 0 Posted November 16, 2004 I thought we'd resolved this a long time ago. Michael Dorn played both characters. It was Worfs grandfather not a young Worf. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
