The F**k word in Star Trek

Oh righty then.
I like some of his films, pulp fiction being his best imo. Not sure it be something that would have worked or not. I remember a rumour years ago reading he wanted to remake a piece of the action from TOS with the kelvin cast but didn't pay it much attention. Is he a fan of the show?

As I read, he was a fan of William Shatner and TOS. What that means we'll probably never know since he has decided a Trek film won't be his last film.
 
Trekkists, obviously.
And then there were 3 choices:
- Trekkies
- Trekkers
- Trekkists

Anybody else want to add to the list self appointed fan names to call ourselves as a collective?
Honestly, I've never heard of Trekkists until you brought it up!
Was that a old idea, or new idea from you?
Or did you get it from somwhere else?
 
Feet. Women's feet.
The long awaited "Way to Eden" remake.

How about I add in a 4th option:
- Trekkies
- Trekkers
- Trekkists
- Treksters

Then you can have something else to argue about.
You do realise Futurama predicted this Star Trek Wars? The Church of Star Trek will take over and fail. Any remaining fans will thrown into an active volcano the manner most befitting virgins :eek:
And the tapes will be banished.

I didn't see that episode of Futurama.

Trek fans.

My favorite neutral option.
Here are the 5 Options:
- Trek Fans
- Trekkies
- Trekkers
- Trekkists
- Treksters
 
It is a 24th century navy. How sailors in the navies of 2025 speak is rather irrelevant.
Everything about 2025 is irrelevant to the 24th century. Trousers and shirts and guns and doctors and coffee and people getting married is irrelevant to the 24th century. Schools are irrelevant to the 24th century, as are cemetaries and retail stores and New Orleans cooking.

We don't watch TV shows about the 24th century. We watch fantasies in which the supposed future world and the people in it are recognizably like us, living in a slight variation of our current culture, doing things pretty much as we do today although the narrative claims they do them faster or more efficiently or by using gadgets which inexplicably emit blue light to operate.

The 24th or 23rd or 22nd or 31st centuries have nothing at all to do with the style or content of Star Trek, because no one knows anything about them.
