Star Trek was at SDCC 2024 with every series from Star Trek Discovery, Strange New Worlds, Section 31 and a new live action comedy show. But every time the panels and trailers opened their mouths, they proved that they knew nothing about Star Trek. Occasionally they can repeat things they've heard about the series, but they do not understand the ideas. Often the statements prove they cannot even comprehend these ideas, it's all about them, and putting themselves in the universe. After Star Trek Discovery I had expected Star Trek to die out as too expensive for a bankrupt Paramount. But the opposite has happened, with multiple spin off movies and series, they're doubling down on Alex Kurtzman and failure. At this point the main question is how long can they continue this path? What do you think? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)
In a society were people are ever more self centered they cannot fathom a world beyond their own limitations ... i would say it can only be worse. I can't wait for when they eventually create a ST spin off without stars and very little trekking beyond one's sofa to get to the remote 😢
Michelle Yeoh didn't even show? WTF!!!! How many showed up in Hall H for this?? All I heard from this even would be a Cross to Dracula for a lifelong Trekkie. Paramount has welcomed leaches into their IP and their so disconnected from those IP's they've been drawn and quartered on their own accord.
7:55: Incidentally, what this person is describing here is called 'social plasticity.' We all present different faces to the world. People don't behave with their lover they way they do their friends, their boss, their parents, their priest. Everyone knows the dirty jokes from the Saturday night out with the gang wouldn't fly over the Sunday dinner table with the folks. This is simply how we navigate the world around us and socially interact with other people. To tell someone that all those selves are a lie and only the person you are when you're by yourself is the 'true' one... is f'king _INSANE_
I think I would be less offended by it all if they acknowledged what they are feeding us. But no. "It's not shit!! Guys... look-- it's really chocolate."
"How has everything become so toxic?" Because the studios decided they hated the customers. "It used to be if you were a fan of Star Trek, you liked Star Trek." This isn't Star Trek. I have a question: How can these people be so out-of-touch?
They were people who hated Star Trek and looked down on the "nerds" who loved it. Now they run it and don't get why people aren't responding well to their disdain of the thing so many loved.
Unfortunately, there's no source higher than the broadcast 480i videos. All the digital effects were done for 480i too. That means every single effect would have to be redone by hand. DS9 (and later TNG episodes, along with Babylon 5) pioneered TV digital effects. Downside is, there were only down for the, then current, resolutions. I should also add that there are a couple really good AI upscaling projects for DS9. The 1080p version came out years ago and looks really good. I think the 4K project is still ongoing.
@@TheSolidSnakeOil That's our fault, apparently. Because TNG didn't sell as well as they thought it would (after redoing all of the special effects for it and bring it to HD whilst still in 4:3 scale), so they scrapped plans for DS9 and Voyager. It is indeed tragic.
@@robl7532yeah DS9 isn’t as great as people remember it to be. The first 4 seasons were very meh, they had to bring in worf remember? It wasn’t until they had large dominion war arcs and tng ending before people began to watch ds9. And Voyager is crap all around.
Kurtzman promised the fans star trek and delivered a parody. McFarland promised the fans a parody and actually delivered Star Trek. The irony is he did such an outstanding job of creating star trek that the orville was canceled after three seasons.
@@darthmeow1370 Wow, I just heard it from you first and immediately had to check to see if it was true - and it is! You just made my night a lot better. Orville is the real Trek now.
That was a really good show. I liked how it wasn't they've already been in space 150yrs or more & it's all been built up _for_ them. Enterprise was all abou the building....from linguistics to technology through formulating and creating the Federation. Nothing was "handed" to them, _they_ built it.
@@michaelminervini1908 Even the Zindi story arc was tightly knit & the idea of 4 distinct variations of the same species was ground breaking, at least to me, and I don't think anyone else has ever done that before or since.
I'm 67. When they canned TOS, my mom sent a letter to them the in letter writing campaign to bring it back. I believe she read an article in the newspaper and it contained an address.
@@guusvansprang5673 Meh, take away the fan service and the story sounded meh. Also, Patrick Steward, Martina Sirtis, Johnathon Frakes, Levar Burton and Will Wheaton have forever destroyed TNG for me with their Pukehard and social media antics. I can't bear to see them in anything. Peak Trek? I think not. Also, that peak Trek helped Kurtzman IMMENSELY in getting more of his sh1t made.
I have been a Star Trek fan since I was a kid in the '70s and I 100% agreed with everything you said about how they're getting Star Trek wrong. They totally missed the point of it.
I started watching the original star trek and I keep marveling at how professional everyone is. In today's shows, everyone is snarky, disrespectful and emotionally incontinent. Love the old stuff.
@@user-kc2fu8iw3v The term "functional adults" might be debatable. It was also a time, were a lot of thing didn't get talked about and people buried their problems inside themself in order to LOOK like "functional adults". One of the reasons why some level of Alcoholism or punching people was so much more acceptable. Now, Some folks have clearly gone overboard in the opposite direction these today, but people were hardly perfect back then.
The old stuff was like watching a military/scientific group exploring the galaxy. Anyone disrespectful of an officer would rightly be seeing the inside of the brig.
They thought DS9 poking holes at the utopian vision of the future was the only thing we wanted. They missed the optimism involved in it and past Trek. DS9 did it right, everything that came after just did a worse job.
I think Voyager was also pretty good and at times even better at doing the good kind of poking - The kind were you find out why something is good & worthwhile, even though it's hard. New Trek is all about "How can I justify being sh*t & dysfunctional?".
"It used to be if you were a fan of Star Trek, then you liked Star Trek." Yeah, well, it used to be that if you were a fan of Star Trek, then Star Trek liked YOU.
"Radical inclusivity," No, Starfleet was logically inclusive. They would judge a civilization's merit and see if they were up to their standards, but they did not exclude based on species. You could be a race of 9ft tall squid monsters but if you had a functional, warp-capable civilization with no infighting or outward aggression, they would figure out somewhere to stick a comm-badge on you.
Nope, they made androids slaves on Mars and had drug addicts running around on Earth. Don't you remember that from your childhood? It was in...I'm done pretending. F**k this shit.
Heck if I recall from one of the books The Trill home world knew of Starfleet well before they joined and actually waited to make sure StarFleet met their standards. I can only imagine how this brave new Radical Starfleet will be seen by other species around the galaxy.
This is why God created classic series DVDs. 😉 Before that, he created Fotonovels (but I wore out my copy of The Trouble With Tribbles until the thumb-damaged edges fell off the binding.)
No, they won't, though they may try. Star Trek cannot be killed. it is an idea, an ideal, and we hold it within us, independent of their commercial crap. Since its inception, Trek has always had an uneasy relationship with the studios, and it always will. Its unreaslistic to expect otherwise. We know what it is, and we'll keep it alive by supporting fan-made stuff like STC and Avalon, and the classics. by holding their feet to the fire every time they try some new twist.
Quite literally the people who used to bully you for liking these things (Games, Tabletop, Trek, Star Wars, Warhammer, etc) are in charge and flaunting. It got old a decade ago.
Well, they can't hope to create anything new of the same grandeur, so they decided to hop on and parasyte those franchises that bullied nerd built from the ground years ago.
Tabletop is so trash now it's upsetting. I'd be ok with it if the "new" guys were atleast creative. You can have new to the hobbies people coke in and be great, but the "new crowd" is cancer.
Making Section 31 members the heroes of your show demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding of what Section 31 is. Nobody doing this should be running the show. It's like making a Lord of the Rings show where the Nazgul are the good guys and hang out in the local bar after each episode for a beer.
@@zqxzqxzqx1 Or do you? Great Britain has MI5. Russia had the KGB. The US has CIA. Israel has their Mossad. "Good people doing very bad things for their country?" There are writers that have given us loads of spy based books and movies. However they haven't been comedies. IF you are going to have a show or movie about Section 31 it most certainly should not be done as "funny".
I believe when they were introduced in both DS9 and ENT they were classified as both a subgroup of Starfleet Intelligence and operated in the "darkness no one else dared" because as Harris says in Season 4 during the Augment arc; "read the charter again...Section 31, it calls for extraordinary means" while speaking to Archer. Sloane never calls his people the "good guys" but the ones who get thier hands dirty to protect the utopia of the Federation's ideals and refers to their existence as "a necessary evil." The only reason S31 is interesting is because they're the antithesis of what Starfleet and the Federation represent; peace, unity, co-existence, and compassion, but making them the "heroes" would essentially be rewriting Star Trek canon and turning the Borg into the "good guys" while the Federation are made the "bad guys"
It's a dead corpse, but it looks to be moving from a distance , when you get closer you realize the movement is from the thousands of maggots feasting at its decomposing corpse.
Orville was a bit fun at a start. But it somehow turned into really strong messaging really fast. And into the "in your face" one. Black Mirror for example also points out on social problems. But without the the actual messaging. (At least that it was. I'm scared to watch newer series since everything turned woke.)
"We changed the recipe for Coca-cola so that it now includes onion juice. " "How dare you Coca-cola fans dislike it just because it's changed! You're no real fans!"
What hapened? People used to like Star Trek, then Star Trek began to shit on itself and its audience, and suddenly people don't like Star Trek. What a mystery!
Because social media happened. Extreme opinions and pointless contrarianism and outrage is the currency. It used to take effort, talent and expertise to expose one’s opinions to a larger group of people than the two or three bods in the pub. Now any old tosser can fart their opinions into a roiling, vast crowd of morons and bask in the resulting cheers. Hell, if you’re smart and boson-hearted enough, you can even monetise it with a RUclips channel, where you can be a Poundland Charlie Brooker and add so much bum gas to the “debate” that, if you’re lucky, some people may even be able to nasally discern your own particular skunk-scent in the soupy, toxic cloud.
By 2005 everybody was just over with this franchise in general, no wonder it sucked. And most of the attempts to appeal to a new audience were mediocre at best
@reniefuwa Is not fair to call it fanfiction. These people aren't fans. Some are indifferent to Star Trek. The rest of them hate it. No different than what's happened to Star Wars. If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend looking up Prelude to Axanar. That's fanfiction.
Wow! It’s August 7, 2024 and I just came across you. Thank you! I can’t tell you how satisfying it is to hear things that you said. But wait I can. My uncle was Gary Nardino, he was the President of Paramount television from 1976-1984. He was in charge of all things Star Trek from 1977 through the script of The Voyage Home. He never would’ve put up with his stuff, but lucky enough everything he touched, at least most of the things that he touched, pretty much turned to gold. In fact there is a great letter from Roddenberry to him about the script of Star Trek II. It’s hilarious if you ever want to see it let me know, if you haven’t already? Keep doing what you’re doing your analysis of where Star Trek is today is spot on excellent.
It ended with Nemesis for me. I don't know why people liked Enterprise when it had stuff in it like a pregnant male in the first season, that's what lead to what we have now.
@@Eric19877 Enterprise did have a clunky first couple of seasons as it was trying to find its place...but once the Xindi arc kicked off THAT's when it really started to shine.
These adult pretenders are so phony. They, "Can't Wait!" and, "So EXCITED!" for their project to come out? Yeah, sure you are. You cashed the check, that's all you want to know.
They remind me of the director who claimed to have been a fan of He-Man, then killed (and double-killed him for permanence) in the first episode, and then went on to say that he had never liked He-Man in the first place.
@@TheRenofox I think someone also did a timeline of his life versus when the show came out originally and they didn't line up at all. His whole story of what he remembered growing up and so forth was just complete BS.
They didn't cancel it, the head of UPN didn't like "Star Trek" and moved the show around to mess with the show's ratings and left it to die. The constant time-shifting ruined the ratings and forced it's cancellation
@@liamdell6319 I think "Nemesis" was like "Star Trek (2009)," written by someone who had a basic awareness of the franchise and made a story that was meant more as an action-adventure film than a true "Star Trek" film. It was crafted with a level of care by the cast, but the writers and director were more like; "I don't know what this is, but whatever" as I think Stuart Baird said something along those lines that he didn't really know much about Star Trek and directed it more as an action movie
Let's be clear though, as a huge trek fan at the time there was massive oversaturation. Most trek fans had had enough by the time enterprise came out and it also really wasn't very popular. I love it now but at the time it did terrible.
Star trek, like all other creations die with thier creators, in this case Gene Roddenberry. The reason tng , ds9, voyager and even enterprise were good to great is because the people working on those properties respected gene and the source material.
Star Trek been dead since the 1st Kelvin reboot movie, which is one of the most annoying shaky camera induced movies I've ever seen. 🤮🤮🤮What more of the entire trilogy itself. 👎👎👎
Don’t forget Feige. The four horse’s asses of the IP apocalypse are literally in competition with each other to see who can piss off the Fans the most….
56 y/o fan here. As I sat with a Trek fan group at a local con last year, I felt old, and could see the end of Trek coming. Most of the visitors passing by were decades younger than the average age at our table, into some kind of manga, and didn't even look at us, never mind express an interest in joining. There was an irony to me, considering that Trek initiated the whole con thing (so long ago,) and these young, non-Trek fans probably have no idea...
I’m a third-generation Star Trek fan. My great aunt gave me the book renditions of all the original series episodes, plus the book versions of the animated series. I own all the movies and the five different series on DVD. We exist, I promise. We just aren’t plentiful.
Is it just me, or were these properties better when they were made by nerds for nerds? This is the equivalent of the high school jocks and cheerleaders discovering D&D and changing the very core of it so their peers would like it more
I doubt it, Roddenberry was extremely left leaninh and push as far as he could. He would be excited how far left it's gone. I left star trek over a decade ago
@@David-ys4udYou didnt really understood Star Trek or Roddenberry. Roddenberry was an old style liberal but he was a based man. These new "people" are neo-liberals , very very different monster: destroyers of humanity and culture. Roddenberry cherished diversity and aspects of human culture, having high standards of morality, having value on intellect and culture. The neoliberal and woke people are exactly the opposite of this.
Roddenberry spent the 80s addicted to cocaine. If he was alive today, he'd be thrilled to support this stuff, in exchange for a few more grams of nose candy.
@@David-ys4ud I dunno. He was a liberal, but that doesn't mean he was a Leftist. The man did have optimism and cared about humanity (and not just his own portion of it.)
@@normusdoar Leftists. Leftists are so extreme that true liberals are appalled by their behavior. I can respect and talk with liberals and do. Leftists would rather just call me a 'phobic' or 'racist' before I even opened my mouth.
No, just about all Hollywood movies now are propaganda first and foremost, then effects and then characters which now have no depth as the woke!!@mryellow6918
The thing is, Vulcans take a lifetime to master logic over emotions. The non Vulcans would not have the discipline to follow logic. So they'd just be angry all the time, we've seen that before in Enterprise.
Precisely. Vulcans are naturally extremely violent, but they are trained from birth to control their emotions. Kurtzman literally doesn't even understand the basics.
I watched half of season 1, saw they were taking notes from The Orville, but I still had my doubts and said I'll wait for a season or 2. That was 100% the moment I realised these people won't learn. They're trying to take you on a tour of paris and they say bon joe yurrr as your tour starts.
@@katethomas1519 I watched all of S1, it felt more like classic Trek, but Season 2 episode 1 was the end for me. The show was a bait and switch and went back to being Kurtzman Trek. He has no respect for Star Trek, and now it's just a farce, and he's laughing about it. No respect, very sad.
Well, TOS had at least a couple of, what I would classify as, "comedy" episodes. The Trouble with Tribbles and I, Mudd. The former had _more_ comedic elements to it, but I find it hilarious watching and hearing the Enterprise Crew frying the logic circuits of those robots in I, Mudd.
That was just an end to more new Trek. It didn't ruin what came before. Star Trek survived periods without new content before. It died when Jar Jar Abrams made his accursed movies.
Leftists can’t make real Trek because they reject the Humanities, Enlightenment values, and true Liberalism which are everything Star Trek is really about.

@@mr.sinjin-smyth Very much agreed. Plus the ugliest redesign of the iconic Enterprise that has ever been consigned to screen. I still remember, after all these years, the moment I laid eyes on the Enterprise-D, designed by Andrew Probert. Hard to explain the sensation. "She's so beautiful that it hurts" is the sentence that came to my mind at the time. I tend to be dramatic at times. This... Jar-jar abomination... on the other hand... made me want to puke.
As a huge fan of Section 31 in DS9.. dear lord I hate everything they've done with it. They used to, you know, be really good at being secretive and run by intelligent characters. Now it's ... this. Parading around in uniforms, announcing themselves to everyone, trying to rip off a certain Squad.. why couldn't they have given the franchise to the guy that fixed Picard? He seems to actually like it.
From 1970s to early 2000s, i absolutely loved Star Trek. That bastard creation of Abrams killed ST for me This modern ST isnt ST. Even Picard season 3, is so dark on the sets plus full of swearing. I couldnt give a shit about ST anymore. They have killed it.
They certainly dumbed it down and made it for the lowest common denominator. The word I would use for it nowadays is GHETTO. DEI has ruined EVERYTHING worth a damn. There are A LOT of things we just do A LOT better and trying to put them in everything is the DUMBEST idea ever.
So Abram’s killed ST for u but u watched 3 seasons of a zombified start trek in Picard? At least the Abram’s movies didn’t disrupt canon and balanced out being a good movie with paying homage to the past they’re pretty good
I liked New World's first season at least. I think I liked the second too. That being said, all I can remember about it was that I liked the lower decks crossover a lot. I also liked Picard season 2. Blew my mind. Can't remember a damn thing about season 3. Think just about all of lower decks is good. Don't have good feelings about its future though.
When I was a young adult, it was bad to be a Star Trek nerd. Now the show is mainstream and cool people have stolen our nerd stuff. Now they are bastardizing and politicizing it. I won’t watch.
Agreed - 'Enterprise' was a po-faced, humourless, appalling show. However, The two-episode 'Terran Empire' arc set up Georgiou to be the Empress in 'Discovery'.
@@nexus_of_a_crisis Shran was the only good thing about it. Same actor who played Brunt and Weyoun in DS9. The guy who played the Vulcan was pretty good, but they played havoc with the Vulcan back story in that show. Hated it for that reason alone.

@@0oo00 Every series after had a rough start sure and some bad episodes. Absolutely. Still some damn fine TV. Enterprise included. I like all the films too. Even JJ Abrams first 2
What Star Trek will save in hiring low-rate B-list actors with no genuine talent, they will more than lose in actual fans who respect the history and lore of the series.
I highly doubt it will be the actors they're going to save on. It will be the sets and action, leaving well-paid woke celebrities talking to each other over a green screen.
Section 31 should be a TV series with titles such as: "Moral Ambiguity" "The End Justifies The Means" "Friendly Fire" "False Flag" And yes, it should have a bit of Mission Impossible in some of the episodes.
These aren't the people to pull that off. Also, all Trek under Kurtzman has taken on a nasty, toxic, dystopian tone. In Picard season 1 his old first officer is an alcoholic and drug addict in a world that supposedly solved those issues. Kurtzman-trek shows a civilization in decline, and if you want that, look to literally any other scifi or even the news. The optimism is what made Star Trek unique but these people are too stupid to realize that.
Trek died with Roddenberry. they've been puppeteering the corpse since then. at first, it was ok. they added just a little more human drama. it started to rot and stink with the tng movies; it turned into action schlock with a sci-fi setting.
Umm. I haven't seen that episode of Strange New Worlds where the rest of the bridge crew becom Vulcans, but as a fan of Star Trek I can already see an absolutely critical flaw in the writing. If you transformed a human into a full Vulcan, they'd instantly become a huge mess of massively overwhelming emotions, lacking any Vulcan logical conditioning. The logical element of Vulcans is trained - it's artificial - their natural state underneath all that repressive indoctrination is to be extremely passionate and emotional. It takes decades for them to think or act like Spock or Sarek. The writers are total idiots.
Original Spock always considered being called Human an insult. He even went through a rìtual to purge all emotion. He responded with positivity when compared to a machine. Nu Spock is Spock in name only
Yes he has and this insane Section 31 thing is going to do far more damage than we ever thought. A literal Black Ops group who makes bioweapons to kill off entire speices is represented by some stupid Zoomer music now.
@@kirgan1000 You can make a Section 31 story good, it would have to be the type of show or movie that highlights how very blissfully ignorant the citizens of the Federation are to existential threats. Think of an Orion Syndicate attempt to take over the Federation through implanting a Slave Girl near key Starfleet personnel and them slowly moving towards the President of the Federation. And have Section 31 need to be brutal to the whole group trying this, it could be female focused as men are easily taken over by the Slave Girls, it would have a "whamen powaa!!" message and have the jokes of men going stupid for a beautiful woman. While keeping to the theme of the group in having to do brutal things to keep the Paradise of the Federation safe and have the characters struggle with the morality of it until coming to the sort of Sisko conclusion at the end of In the Pale Moonlight. But they don't have the capability to have moral ambiguity and present people doing horrible things to safeguard people from other horrible people, the characters HAVE to be seen as good otherwise their self-inserts aren't the "good guys".
@@UncensoredScion First I like the Psi Corps story, and think Bester is a very interesting antagonist, in Babylon 5. But I totally reject your idea, in DS9 Section 31 was a Cancer on the federation, that need to be removed. What you describe is that Section 31is a vital organ for the Federation. Hence make the Federation to its core dark, that is not that Star Trek is about.
Star Trek died in 2005. Then in 2009 they reanimated it as a shambling undead corpse. God, i can't believe that this awful JJ and Kurtzman Trek has lasted for 15 years, which is almost as long as Rick Berman and his run of good Star Trek.
I have been saying this for a while now. Fanfiction is written by people who love the source material. This crap is created by people who hate the source material.
I believe the woman after the match said she was on board with the man being there, even though she did a "No Mas! No Mas!!" Carini's coach Emanuel Rezini had hoped for his fighter to make it out of the first round so they could evaluate the situation. But Carini could not overcome the pain caused by punches to her nose. "She's too strong," Renzini recalled Carini telling him. Used "She's". Carini had no issue with the Delicate Flower Of Algeria competing. Just that she couldn't compete with Delicate Flower Of Algeria. I haven't watched the Summer Olympics probably 20 years. The Winter, maybe 10. No one forces anyone to compete. The Olympics are entertainment wrapped in the flag of where you are from. It's a business. Only way to get a business to change is hurt their bottom line. That's not happening.
It's such a worthless cause to try and advance these people. They do all they can to gaslight the rest of the population by stating we're all equal and some aren't MUCH, MUCH, MUCH better than others. They are RUINING our civilization.
Maybe a Section 31 for Western Civilization is needed. I mean, DS9 Section 31, not whatever this "Mission Impossible In Space" thing written by smooth-brains for twitter kids is. Doing the ugly to remove the ugly.
Star Trek ended at "Nemesis". I've been a fan since 1978, watching reruns when I was 4. And introduced my four children to it. We haven't consumed the a minute of "The Message" Trek. Thank for putting this out there.
Section 31 is SUPPOSED to be about "the ends justifying the means", about killing to prevent killing, about the few being willing abandon their ability to live in their society so that the many safely can. It's not about good defeating evil, it's about accepting that sometimes only evil can defeat evil in an imperfect world/universe where everyone doesn't think like you. It's SUPPOSED to make you THINK, not LAUGH.
Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges Literally means “in times of war, the law falls silent” and Sloan’s actions are extremely abhorrent, but effective, and likely saved the post dominion Alpha Quadrant from more war.
That was one of my favorite episodes. And there are times when I say that to some people, after I translate it for them. They get so angry but I tell them. Sometimes you can't Beat evil with good. Sometimes The only way to deal with evil is with evil. Darkness against darkness. The woke and the left have destroyed everything. Look at the opening ceremony of the Olympics. I am disgusted. I have love Star Trek for yeand I vowed that if ever, I encountered aliens and it was taken out into space, I would do something to build a starship enterprise and come back to Earth.
@@animejanai4657more like Federation Black ops, easily disavowed, and lets the rest of the Federation keep their “hands clean” in ignorance. They’re supposed to be secret, unlike the black ops of other races. The discussion and morality of them when you take into account their methods and results is some of the best writing in the show IMO. Easily on par with the best Picard speeches.
@@Samuel034 One of my fav scenes of all time. I regret I didn't write the quote myself lol. The debate of whether you maintain your principles but allow the entire Alpha Quadrant to be destroyed or literally commit a genocide of the race that thinks nothing of killing or enslaving you all. There is no right answer, no perfect solutions in an imperfect world/universe. To paraphrase Sisko, "It's easy to be an angel in paradise, but the world/universe is not paradise". There are only imperfect solutions you can learn to live with and someone has to be willing to get their hands dirty for them, so "I can live with it...I CAN live with it...computer, delete that entire personal log".
It's like they've taken Star Trek which is a show for intelligent people and watered it down to appeal to people who watch Transformers and Godzilla movies.
"What I love most about modernity, is trying to get indoctrinated by my lessers" - absolutely nailed it! Cinema, television, what these "creators" lack in intelligence, they make up for in arrogance
Star Trek died years ago. It randomly came back for a quick finale with season 3 of Picard, but that corpse was quickly beaten back down and burned by what has been released since
I have been watching Star Trek since the original was aired on tv in the 1960s. Creators today have lost the idea of Star Trek. They have made it worse. There was a reason why people loved the old Star Treks. Now they have come to dislike Star Trek very much. They should try to find out why. It's sad. Give me the OLD Star Treks back! My all time favorite was Next Generation. They have twisted Star Trek into something that is almost not recognizable. It clearly is nowhere near the level of the old Star Treks.
It is truly fascinating to see so many new Star Trek shows that no one will ever, ever watch. It's truly mind-blowing and I don't think there is anything comparable. They're literally making these shows for no-one.
Star Wars has been desecrated. Star Trek has been desecrated. Doctor Who has been desecrated. Superman (and worse, Supergirl) has been desecrated. All of these classic franchises are being sacrificed on the wokeness altar. And they're dead, all of them. They were great shows that used to sometimes have a message, but that have turned into a message that has a show... and the message is as banal and indelicately delivered as a gorilla hitting you on the head with an uprooted sapling.
I think the upper tier left is setting a honey pot to make the left wing ideas so unpalatable that we just agree to wipe them out: LGBTQ - back to the loony bin, Blacks - back to Africa, Mexicans - back to Mexico, women - lose the right to vote and own property. These left wing ideas are so openly hateful of anyone who isn't them you naturally have to be against them. You rarely find any lefty who can support all of them.
The best thing of all is that Star Trek is alive and well, mainly because it ended all production 20ish years ago. What this is is Kutrzman Trek, the downward pinnacle of a sham show based on a valid IP. Star Trek encourages us to try harder, to want to be better and dream of a better world that we can create and contribute to. Kurtzman Trek encourages us to be dumber, more self-absorbed and self-involved, and more angry without reason.
I would fire every quantum torpedo I had at Hollywood then every photon torpedo then drain every phaser bank into it and then remotely fly every shuttle craft into it
They seem to be going out of their way to make every kind of “Star Trek” show except anything with the tone of 80s/90s Star Trek that so many of us fell in love with.
I’d rather you identify as something rather than say, you don’t identify as either since it’s so trendy to decide you don’t wanna choose. Refusal to choose a gross sign of your immaturity. And that bleeds into other facets of life too, if you’re not emotionally mature enough to identify as either male or female, you’re not emotionally mature enough for anything PERIOD
It's funny because it's born out of a fad and a changing of definitions. There's nothing wrong with being a woman who just so happens to like mostly male things. We used to call that a Tomboy. Now it's "Gender non-conforming female-presenting." The same people that said "Don't label us" and "Labels are harmful" created a million labels to substitute for a lack of personality and growth.
@@Unethical.FandubsGames The part that annoys me most is how they pretend that social conventions built around guiding people who can benefit from a clear path when life is complicated (gender roles) are somehow inescapable shackles of a rigid and moralizing society, all because they got teased for not doing the expected thing as a kid, or their parents would like to have grandchildren someday. We're supposed to pretend that people have not always been able to do pretty much as they please, and that women never wore pants, or something.
@@yurikendal4868 Copyright protection means that creators who COULD build and expand on the IP are prevented from doing so, even if they don't monetize it. The holders of the copyright monopolize it. While that makes perfect sense for INDIVIDUAL CREATORS, corporations have exploited and abused that monopoly for the financial benefit not of the original creator but their own plundering selves.
@@davidford3115 and unironically you are just spouting the same talking points Socialists/Communists believe with their Shrinking Market Theory. What about all the other IPs that did enter the Public Domain like Robin Hood or The Dhadow. How come there isn't this revitalization in its expansion by creatives that now can use them? Call me Elitist, but I've found the unwashed masses (you know the same ones that vote for these awful policies, including that copyright extension) don't bring any longevity to an IP. Infact the opposite has been true, like who really cares about the 2000th reinterpretation of The Wizard Oz. Corporations holding onto an IP are just a window into that very outcome on a smaller scale. Even if say Star Wars dropped into the Public Domain, there's still so much garbage Disney added that "fans" already accepted such as all the awful stuff around Hyperspace that both JJ and Rian brought in with their films that run completely counter to George's original films. And you thought Disney's oversaturation was bad, the public will make Disney's look like a trickle from the faucet by comparison. Many fans have their vision of what Star Wars should be, and they all vary from each individual; but most have the same thread of NOT caring about Lucas' vision. So you're really just replacing the Corpo hires that don't care for canon to the masses that don't care about canon.
Star Trek died when Paramount chose to "reboot" the "franchise" rather than building new and aspirational characters and stories. When truly fans saw where the JJ Abraams directing was trying to do and criticized Paramount, they decided to ban every single one project that would will stay true to the storyline of Gene Roddenberry's initial creation. Galaxy Quest, Star Trek Continues and The Orville have more relevance to the ST universe than Paramount's latest movies
to be fair,the first one was not bad i saw alot potential in there... there was alittle (strange in it) the second also wasnt bad (but the strangeness increased) well and then it went only down from there :)) these guys in hollywood dont get how to put the good old stuff into the future like for example top gun did

Star Trek was at SDCC 2024 with every series from Star Trek Discovery, Strange New Worlds, Section 31 and a new live action comedy show. But every time the panels and trailers opened their mouths, they proved that they knew nothing about Star Trek. Occasionally they can repeat things they've heard about the series, but they do not understand the ideas. Often the statements prove they cannot even comprehend these ideas, it's all about them, and putting themselves in the universe. After Star Trek Discovery I had expected Star Trek to die out as too expensive for a bankrupt Paramount. But the opposite has happened, with multiple spin off movies and series, they're doubling down on Alex Kurtzman and failure. At this point the main question is how long can they continue this path? What do you think? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)
In a society were people are ever more self centered they cannot fathom a world beyond their own limitations ... i would say it can only be worse.
I can't wait for when they eventually create a ST spin off without stars and very little trekking beyond one's sofa to get to the remote 😢
Michelle Yeoh didn't even show? WTF!!!! How many showed up in Hall H for this?? All I heard from this even would be a Cross to Dracula for a lifelong Trekkie. Paramount has welcomed leaches into their IP and their so disconnected from those IP's they've been drawn and quartered on their own accord.
The fact that Fanguard, BlackRot & ShitStreak are the 3 largest institutional investors in Paramount Global should tell us everything.

You know what the real tragedy is? Deep Space Nine not having a blu-ray release why Discovery is a waste of blu-ray discs.
Unfortunately, there's no source higher than the broadcast 480i videos. All the digital effects were done for 480i too. That means every single effect would have to be redone by hand. DS9 (and later TNG episodes, along with Babylon 5) pioneered TV digital effects. Downside is, there were only down for the, then current, resolutions.
I should also add that there are a couple really good AI upscaling projects for DS9. The 1080p version came out years ago and looks really good. I think the 4K project is still ongoing.
@@TheSolidSnakeOil Guaranteed if they did an official GoFundMe or Kickstart to cover the cost of redoing DS9 it would be 100% in less than 24 hours.
@@TheSolidSnakeOil That's our fault, apparently. Because TNG didn't sell as well as they thought it would (after redoing all of the special effects for it and bring it to HD whilst still in 4:3 scale), so they scrapped plans for DS9 and Voyager. It is indeed tragic.

I started watching the original star trek and I keep marveling at how professional everyone is. In today's shows, everyone is snarky, disrespectful and emotionally incontinent. Love the old stuff.
It mirrors liberal hollywood types. That nasty snarky know it all attitude is what they consider “strang wahmen”.

They thought DS9 poking holes at the utopian vision of the future was the only thing we wanted. They missed the optimism involved in it and past Trek.
DS9 did it right, everything that came after just did a worse job.
I think Voyager was also pretty good and at times even better at doing the good kind of poking
- The kind were you find out why something is good & worthwhile, even though it's hard.
New Trek is all about "How can I justify being sh*t & dysfunctional?".
DS9 didn't really poke a hole in the utopia though, they just showed that it was actually difficult and needed work to strive for high ideals.
"It used to be if you were a fan of Star Trek, then you liked Star Trek."
Yeah, well, it used to be that if you were a fan of Star Trek, then Star Trek liked YOU.
Says the man whose own magnum opus televised version was wrecked by showrunners who no longer cared enough to stick the landing.
That was when star trek gave a particular type of entertainment and story telling.

It used to be that if you were a fan of Star Trek it was because Star Trek was good.

Yeah, well, it USED to BE Star Trek. Kurtzman Trek is NOT Star Trek.
"Radical inclusivity," No, Starfleet was logically inclusive. They would judge a civilization's merit and see if they were up to their standards, but they did not exclude based on species. You could be a race of 9ft tall squid monsters but if you had a functional, warp-capable civilization with no infighting or outward aggression, they would figure out somewhere to stick a comm-badge on you.
Nope, they made androids slaves on Mars and had drug addicts running around on Earth. Don't you remember that from your childhood? It was in...I'm done pretending. F**k this shit.
Well-said! I wanted to make this point, but you say this so beautifully, I will just give you an “amen!”
Something like... if you were LGBT, fine. But if you groomed children over mass media and beloved franchises, then no.
I kind of what to see a full episode of the engineers trying to stick a comm-badge on such a being.

Star Trek isn't dead, its undead. And they'll beat its zombiefied remains until there's nothing left but mush.
Is going to arrive a point that not even an elder lich, or even an arch necromancer willbe able to keep it rise
given the nature of the sort of people who wrote this, I think they are doing way worse than just beating these dead franchises.
PERFECT COMMENT
The undead's cries of, "Brains!" rang in my ears after I read your comment. And there was only silence in reply...
No, they won't, though they may try. Star Trek cannot be killed. it is an idea, an ideal, and we hold it within us, independent of their commercial crap. Since its inception, Trek has always had an uneasy relationship with the studios, and it always will. Its unreaslistic to expect otherwise.
We know what it is, and we'll keep it alive by supporting fan-made stuff like STC and Avalon, and the classics. by holding their feet to the fire every time they try some new twist.
Quite literally the people who used to bully you for liking these things (Games, Tabletop, Trek, Star Wars, Warhammer, etc) are in charge and flaunting.
It got old a decade ago.
Well, they can't hope to create anything new of the same grandeur, so they decided to hop on and parasyte those franchises that bullied nerd built from the ground years ago.
@TsunTzu well said
Tabletop is so trash now it's upsetting. I'd be ok with it if the "new" guys were atleast creative. You can have new to the hobbies people coke in and be great, but the "new crowd" is cancer.
Making Section 31 members the heroes of your show demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding of what Section 31 is. Nobody doing this should be running the show. It's like making a Lord of the Rings show where the Nazgul are the good guys and hang out in the local bar after each episode for a beer.
Exactly! You don't get much more anti-Trek than Section 31.
@@zqxzqxzqx1 Or do you? Great Britain has MI5. Russia had the KGB. The US has CIA. Israel has their Mossad. "Good people doing very bad things for their country?" There are writers that have given us loads of spy based books and movies. However they haven't been comedies. IF you are going to have a show or movie about Section 31 it most certainly should not be done as "funny".
I believe when they were introduced in both DS9 and ENT they were classified as both a subgroup of Starfleet Intelligence and operated in the "darkness no one else dared" because as Harris says in Season 4 during the Augment arc; "read the charter again...Section 31, it calls for extraordinary means" while speaking to Archer. Sloane never calls his people the "good guys" but the ones who get thier hands dirty to protect the utopia of the Federation's ideals and refers to their existence as "a necessary evil."
The only reason S31 is interesting is because they're the antithesis of what Starfleet and the Federation represent; peace, unity, co-existence, and compassion, but making them the "heroes" would essentially be rewriting Star Trek canon and turning the Borg into the "good guys" while the Federation are made the "bad guys"

The thing is, Vulcans take a lifetime to master logic over emotions. The non Vulcans would not have the discipline to follow logic. So they'd just be angry all the time, we've seen that before in Enterprise.

Dud what you talking bout bro. Thats how I became black
The stupidest thing about them becoming Vulcan is Vulcans aren’t born with logic, they have to learn it and train constantly.
My thoughts exactly.
Precisely. Vulcans are naturally extremely violent, but they are trained from birth to control their emotions. Kurtzman literally doesn't even understand the basics.
I watched half of season 1, saw they were taking notes from The Orville, but I still had my doubts and said I'll wait for a season or 2. That was 100% the moment I realised these people won't learn. They're trying to take you on a tour of paris and they say bon joe yurrr as your tour starts.
@@katethomas1519 I watched all of S1, it felt more like classic Trek, but Season 2 episode 1 was the end for me. The show was a bait and switch and went back to being Kurtzman Trek. He has no respect for Star Trek, and now it's just a farce, and he's laughing about it. No respect, very sad.
Yeah, and it’s said that emotions run deeper in Vulcans than in humans so they should’ve been raging

"The End Justifies The Means"
"Friendly Fire"
"False Flag"

These aren't the people to pull that off. Also, all Trek under Kurtzman has taken on a nasty, toxic, dystopian tone. In Picard season 1 his old first officer is an alcoholic and drug addict in a world that supposedly solved those issues. Kurtzman-trek shows a civilization in decline, and if you want that, look to literally any other scifi or even the news. The optimism is what made Star Trek unique but these people are too stupid to realize that.
"It's dead Jim."
😂 well said!
But not as we know it!
Star treks been dead since nemesis. They have been puppeting the corpse like its weekend at Bernie's since then.
The next gen films were mostly terrible themselves (though first contact has it's moments) but yeah, since then it hasn't been star trek at all.
Trek died with Roddenberry.
they've been puppeteering the corpse since then. at first, it was ok. they added just a little more human drama. it started to rot and stink with the tng movies; it turned into action schlock with a sci-fi setting.
Umm. I haven't seen that episode of Strange New Worlds where the rest of the bridge crew becom Vulcans, but as a fan of Star Trek I can already see an absolutely critical flaw in the writing.
If you transformed a human into a full Vulcan, they'd instantly become a huge mess of massively overwhelming emotions, lacking any Vulcan logical conditioning. The logical element of Vulcans is trained - it's artificial - their natural state underneath all that repressive indoctrination is to be extremely passionate and emotional. It takes decades for them to think or act like Spock or Sarek. The writers are total idiots.
Original Spock always considered being called Human an insult. He even went through a rìtual to purge all emotion. He responded with positivity when compared to a machine.
Nu Spock is Spock in name only
Closed captioning had his name coming up as Spark.

@@kirgan1000 You can make a Section 31 story good, it would have to be the type of show or movie that highlights how very blissfully ignorant the citizens of the Federation are to existential threats.
Think of an Orion Syndicate attempt to take over the Federation through implanting a Slave Girl near key Starfleet personnel and them slowly moving towards the President of the Federation.
And have Section 31 need to be brutal to the whole group trying this, it could be female focused as men are easily taken over by the Slave Girls, it would have a "whamen powaa!!" message and have the jokes of men going stupid for a beautiful woman.
While keeping to the theme of the group in having to do brutal things to keep the Paradise of the Federation safe and have the characters struggle with the morality of it until coming to the sort of Sisko conclusion at the end of In the Pale Moonlight.
But they don't have the capability to have moral ambiguity and present people doing horrible things to safeguard people from other horrible people, the characters HAVE to be seen as good otherwise their self-inserts aren't the "good guys".

Section 31 is SUPPOSED to be about "the ends justifying the means", about killing to prevent killing, about the few being willing abandon their ability to live in their society so that the many safely can.

Star Trek died years ago. It randomly came back for a quick finale with season 3 of Picard, but that corpse was quickly beaten back down and burned by what has been released since
I have been watching Star Trek since the original was aired on tv in the 1960s. Creators today have lost the idea of Star Trek. They have made it worse. There was a reason why people loved the old Star Treks. Now they have come to dislike Star Trek very much. They should try to find out why. It's sad. Give me the OLD Star Treks back!

Call me Elitist, but I've found the unwashed masses (you know the same ones that vote for these awful policies, including that copyright extension) don't bring any longevity to an IP. Infact the opposite has been true, like who really cares about the 2000th reinterpretation of The Wizard Oz. Corporations holding onto an IP are just a window into that very outcome on a smaller scale.
Even if say Star Wars dropped into the Public Domain, there's still so much garbage Disney added that "fans" already accepted such as all the awful stuff around Hyperspace that both JJ and Rian brought in with their films that run completely counter to George's original films.
And you thought Disney's oversaturation was bad, the public will make Disney's look like a trickle from the faucet by comparison.
Many fans have their vision of what Star Wars should be, and they all vary from each individual; but most have the same thread of NOT caring about Lucas' vision. So you're really just replacing the Corpo hires that don't care for canon to the masses that don't care about canon.
