The Question
Eternal
Jesus, Paramount, it's just tatters of sinew hanging from desiccated bones, at this point. Bury the fucking thing already and go clean the baseball bats you used on it. I mean, I used to love Star Trek when it was intellectually stimulating escapism. Now it's been turned into an Island Of Doctor Moreau specimen, a miserable fusion of a soapbox and a pulpit. I can't decide whether I was more disgusted by the lens-fare-slathered shakycam-muddled dudebro Trek or the weepy-ass SJWTrek. Either way, just end its suffering, already.

Odd how they’re pumping out entirely new tv shows by the bucketload but can’t organise one movie with an existing setting, characters and actors who were under contract (no idea if that’s still the case by now).

I did like the last one... ummm... whatever it was called.

New Trek is fucked. Erase the alternate timeline and start cranking out TNG-canon shows/movies.

It never ends.
It would be nice to imagine NIcholas Meyer swooping in and saving Star Trek movies again, but he was involved with Discovery and that didn't turn out good (from my point of view.)

Was he, though? I thought most of his ideas just got shitcanned when they had to retool after Bryan Fuller bailed, though he did retain a producer credit.

I have no idea to be honest.

Bryan Singer (of X-Men fame) is the one who was accused of multiple sexual abuse incidents.

Nothing shows confidence in a franchise like waiting 7 years between movies. At this rate they can mimic the latter TOS films by having them all contemplating old age. Oh well, we’ll see what they come up with.

Or they can just start recycling TOS scripts, but in a "what would it be like in the other timeline" context...

Be careful what you wish for. The Kelvin Sulu in "The Naked Time" would probably be wearing a shirt.
