And after seeing how well the franchise is going with SNW and LD, I feel it's even more appropriate.

I’m all for bringing him back if he’s just limited to 10 minutes of an unpowered ship tumbling in free fall towards a planet. Strange New Worlds is much better modern Star Trek, but you can’t say JJ didn’t take advantage of the theatrical scale of things. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [+] Stamets@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago* (last edited 10 months ago) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent [–] dejected_warp_core@startrek.website 2 points 2 years ago I like this take. Use him like you'd use a stunt coordinator, or a pyrotechnics specialist. Have a complex action scene that needs to convey action, chaos, high-stakes, and fireballs, for 12 straight minutes? He's your guy. permalink fedilink source parent [–] porthos@startrek.website 14 points 2 years ago* (1 child) I didn't hate the Kelvin movies, aesthetically though they were trash in that they took a scifi franchise known for inspiring good UI design and expanded upon it with absolutely horrendous UI. Seriously the computers and interiors of those ships are so ugly it hurts. Also, starfleet felt WAYYYYYYY too much like a military for me in those movies, there was no attempt to differentiate starfleet from a direct analog to the U.S. military and that just gives me that "kind of want to throw up" feeling every time I see it in star trek. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] Stamets@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago* (last edited 10 months ago) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent [+] aniki@lemm.ee 8 points 2 years ago [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent
