Tarantino Star Trek?

[Fuddlemiff]

I don’t really see what it could add to things, aside from Kirk bidding farewell to the villain with “fuck you, cuntface” before mowing him down with a phaser machine gun.

While the idea of human Trek characters being perfect is silly and impossible to write for, they should still be professional scientists or military personnel who don’t give into petty anger and name calling a enough to call for the rating.

It would be like a universe full of Barclays who decided to turn their anger and frustration outward instead of inward.

Which isn't Trek.

Patrick Stewart's said he'd be willing to return as Picard for Tarantino, so there's that.

 

[The Question]

Like I said, it's already fucked. Might as well let everybody have a turn at pissing on the corpse.

So Tarantino's Trek only has a 33% chance of being made.

 

[The Question]

Thank dog for small fuckin' favors.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

I never thought it would be made -- no Trek project was ever greenlit this quickly -- usually there's years of hand-wringing involved.

 

[CaptainWacky]

I still don't get why they announced "Chris Hemsworth's in the next one!" five minutes after Beyond flopped when they surely didn't know what the movie would even be about.

 

[Fuddlemiff]

Yeah. I’d love to see him back but they just got people’s hopes up for nothing.

 

[Starship Coyote]

Personally, I wish they'd just pull the plug on the whole franchise and let it go gracefully.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Or reboot it as a LEGO video game franchise.

 

[The Question]

Or just reboot the people who keep rebooting it. As in, boot 'em in the nuts. Then reboot 'em. Again and again.

I have no idea what's going on with Star Trek movies anymore : http://variety.com/2018/film/news/s...cial_bar&utm_content=bottom&utm_id=1202787592

They should clarify that she’s only the first female director of a Trek film, not of the whole franchise.

Meanwhile, I’ve never heard of her and the shows they mentioned are usually capably directed but not anything extraordinary, but I guess we’ll see. Glad to see Chris Hemsworth is still named, though a lot of it seems subject to change.

 

[The Question]

It's going to be SJW garbage. And I mean that as compared to Discovery. Don't think it can get worse? You just wait, kids.

Simon Pegg says Trantino Trek is up to six years away. He might as well have said "it's not happening lol." https://www.slashfilm.com/star-trek-4-update/

 

[CaptainWacky]

Tarantino doesn't give a fuck about your "timelines" or "canon."

I'm SURE The Nerds will respond to this news in a reasonable, measured manner!

The guy who made death proof has no business telling other people their films make no sense.

 

[The Question]

Tarantino doesn't give a fuck about your "timelines" or "canon."

"Hey, customer! I don't give a fuck about giving you what you want!"
"Great! Then I don't give a fuck about giving you the money YOU want!"

Of course, it doesn't seem like Tarantino is so much saying "I don't give a fuck" as he's actually asking, "What the fuck?" He doesn't seem to get that the films split the continuity.

 

[Fuddlemiff]

Since the timeline divergence doesn’t need to be referenced anymore they could just have the Abrams cast and keep it ambiguous which universe it takes place in (though stylistically it’ll be a giveaway of course).
