Ever since the third season of Picard made fans warm and nostalgic for the glory days of the franchise, fans … Continue reading "Star Trek: Legacy Dead, We Mourn Series That Felt So Right"
Really too bad. I was hopeful, but it sounds like it’s not happening.
Well, the death of Phase II gave us the movie series and The Next Generation. Short term loss translated into long-term gain, which led to the golden era of Star Trek.
It remains to be seen if this door closing opens other, better doors.
Paramount had previously announced setting a trend with 1 Trek movie per year. Beyond Section 31, I know of no others specifically mentioned. Keep hope alive that the concept gets retooled. And perhaps… some holo logs of Captain Shaw.
I only clarified because there are still plenty of Mark I’s out there scrubbing plasma conduits. Only 1 sang opera and daydreamed about being a captain.
I really want an update on that story, like did it spark something in the Mark I’s, did they form a union? Overthrow their owners? We’re there poets or philosophers because of what they learnt from The Doctors holonovel?
Seriously though, that fourth Kelvin movie is actually still alive and Chris Pine is still signed to it.

Starship Command Tips with Captain Shaw.
Right along side Healthcare Tips with the EMH Mark I.
So long as it’s THE Doctor.
That’s why I specified Mark I. It has to be Picardo or no dice.

Fair point, it has to be Voyager’s EMH.
‘There’s a Mark II on the Prometheus, but he has no sense of humor.’

Yes, but what if it doesn’t make all the money?
Then it would be a complete failure and Paramount would have to layoff 8,000 single parents to make up for it.
