16. Star Trek is not understood well by studio executives and they need to hire people who know, love, and want to play in a universe that builds a hopeful vision of our future. Embrace the show's ability to comment on today's society through scifi & focus on what unites us.
17. Hire Gillian Anderson to play an Admiral, you cowards!!!!
I love this!!!!
Look, I'm not sure most Trekkies with a pulse would be emotionally prepared to deal with Admiral Scully. I don't have problems with high blood pressure but I *would*.
18. The fact that Disco did not do the musical episode makes me mad. You had Anthony Rapp just STANDING THERE NOT SINGING, people! And Mary Wiseman, and Sonequa --- !!! SNW cast did great but I think they would agree about the Anthony Rapp of it all.
I will be annoyed about this forever. Especially knowing that fans and actors were asking for it.
19. More Jason Isaacs was warranted. I want them to chase Prime Lorca arcross space and time and find out what he was up to.
There's never too much Jason Isaacs in anything.
20. More Tig Notaro was also warranted. See what I mean about character building in episodes? She is phenomenal, needed more to do.
21. Ethan Peck is a MUCH better Spock than Zachary Quinto.
*hand waggle* I liked them both for different reasons. Very different takes on the character, but then Kelvin!Spock *is* a different character, which is something I think a lot of fans too easily forget about the Kelvinverse crew as a whole. I do agree that Peck excels as a truer-to-TOS Spock.
I am going to sleep and will continue tomorrow 🫶🏻
Woke up to a lot more likes! We will see if I want to go up to 55 lol This is a series of OPINIONS. I don't need to be corrected. Hold it in, men. I know you can do it 😂
22. I don't like when Star Trek (or any show) has something major occur and then time snaps back (Year of Hell is best example) and everything we saw & everything they went through never happened. The same with "it was all a dream". Cop out! No like!
Yeah, the 90s shows did this kind of thing a lot. I appreciate episodes like "Yesterday's Enterprise" for the Elseworlds plots that they were but the franchise at the time was allergic to long-term consequences for plot decisions.
23. The JJ Abrams movies are fine, but they aren't Star Trek. That dude was auditioning for Star Wars and he has even said it in the press. He isn't a Trekkie, he didn't grasp the fundamentals of what Trek is about. They are average scifi movies but they are Star Trek in name only.
Sister!
24. Wesley is great. Leave him alone. Loved him as a kid, love seeing him now. He gets very unfairly ripped on.
Two of their cold opens were the kind of thing I *wanted* in Trek...and then the rest of the movie happened. I want the movies that led to those cold opens!
Zachary Quinto is a more *human* Spock. Ethan Peck is the prime *Vulcan* Spock. Kelvin Spock very much went more towards his human/emotional side than Prime Spock.
I don't agree with you here, but since these are my opinions, I don't need to get into it.
I can envision Ethan Peck's Spock growing into Nimoy's Spock. One of the very few "build up to an established character" castings (and writing) I can say that for.
