Shore Leave influenced by Solaris?

Couldn't help but wonder if the writers for this episode got the idea from the novel Solaris . The idea of things materializing from your thoughts is the crux of that story albeit with a much darker tone that the ST episode. Got a lot of heavy Westworld vibe from it too. Especially when you saw Kirk looking dreamily at the artificial creation of his high school sweetheart. You know he musta busted that thang out 7 ways to Sunday. He definitely looked "well rested" at the end of the episode. 🤪

@movie_nazi : When I renewed my Paramount Plus account, I was able to get both Paramount Plus and Showtime for only $11.99 a month with no commercials. And I wanted to see the live action version of Mulan so badly that I signed up for Disney Plus a couple of days ago! I got the no commercials option, which is only $11.99 a month. I just finished watching Eternals on Disney Plus. It's a good film and I'm hoping that there's going to be a sequel.

Note to all: I cancelled my Disney Plus account after I watched Eternals.
