Star Trek: Thor

I wish. That would be a nice change of pace.

I don't know. I really enjoyed BEYOND, but I've seen complaints that it coasted too much on nostalgia and recreating classic TOS tropes. ("Look, Spock and McCoy are humorously bickering again! Kirk tore his shirt.") Which can be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on your perspective, but BEYOND certainly seemed to have at least one eye on us old-school TOS fans.

That may be true, but I like to think of the "shout outs" or "call backs" being inserted, not out of deliberate nostalgia, but because those elements in TOS worked, and improved the quality of the show.

I can see that. I was mostly reporting on comments I've seen elsewhere.
 
I don't know, if I were them I'd be feeling the general audiences have flipped me the bird on Beyond. Fans may be all they have left.
 
I feel like when Meyer took the helm for STII, he didn't give a shit about trying to appease certain segments of the fanbase. He focused on story, and applied his own vision to Trek while still understanding and respecting the franchise.

If the next movie gets made, I think that's what it needs. Someone who respects Star Trek, but isn't concerned with pandering to fans by throwing in easter eggs or rehashed moments. Someone with their own vision who just wants to tell a good story, and not try and impress us with references and spectacle.
 
I'm thinking it will be named similarly to ID and STB, in that the word "Trek" works as a verb with the phrase that follows.

Star Trek Forward
Star Trek Toward the Unknown
Star Trek Through the Looking Glass

...or something. :shrug:

I like Star Trek: Thor :lol:. Paramount must now be negotiating with Disney for the rights.
