Principled Man Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 (edited) Paramount Pictures has announced a June 9th, 2023 release date for an untitled Star Trek film, according to Variety. Last month, the studio hired Star Trek: Discovery writer Kalinda Vazquez to pen the script for a movie based on an original idea of hers, but it's unclear if that's the same project.

QT making it R would be a big slap in the face to the Trekkies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not like they’ve been getting Star Trek right recently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current TV series are laughably bad, and the last film was just about the lamest of all the films. Just my opinion, but the saga is done. I was the hugest Star Trek fan, but even I know when to honor and bury the dead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grep Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 You can never have too much Star Trek. May the franchise live for another 50 years. I was looking forward to the Tarantino idea. Say what again Morn! I dare you. I double dare you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenJennings Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 (edited) The pessimism about Star Trek is really unfounded. The Kelvin movies aged pretty well, and knowing they're just a side project for the franchise, I can find them enjoyable. Though Into Darkness was awful, Beyond was a legitimate treat. I'd like to see the new movie put a proper bow on the Kelvin timeline. Discovery started off terrible, but continues to consistently improve. It's become almost watchable with season 3, and only looks to be getting better. Picard was a terrific follow up to Nemesis, and I'm ecstatic to see where they take it with Q in season 2. I love seeing Picard back in action, and I love the new characters. Can't wait for more. Lower Decks is a brilliant love letter to the franchise with a ton of great jokes for die hard fans. Strange New Worlds has a lot of potential and a killer cast lined up. Seriously, Anson Mount is the perfect Captain Pike... And the section 31 show could go a lot of different great directions. I hope to God it's a Romulan war show with some Enterprise callbacks. For its ups and downs, modern Trek has turned out more good than bad, and it's only becoming increasingly good. I'm pumped for more. Edited April 16, 2021 by KenJennings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mosher Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 I've been a huge Trek fan for 45 years, and I loved Discovery from the beginning (despite truly hating the Klingon changes). And yes, Discovery was at its best last season. Picard was terribly underwhelming. I was disappointed. But it was watchable and I expect them to right the ship. There's no need to end Trek. The ideals mattered and still matter. I am ecstatic that Tarantino is out. What a stupid idea. I like his movies, but his vision for Trek would likely be horrible. I don't see him being interested unless he can ruin it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
