What a mess.
No reason you couldn’t make an awesome Star Trek film for 80 million. It doesn’t need Star Wars like space battles every five minutes.
Write a good story, and make the brand stand out instead of copying what Disney is doing.
The producers should sit down and watch Wrath of Khan

@Kirwan It sounds like the new Picard show will replace Discovery, but it will have the same convoluted licensing agreements dictating content ...
That sounds like wishful thinking on your part. Everything I’ve heard about the Picard show so far doesn’t scream marquee Trek show. They are trying something new there, I’m expecting a small quirky show.

Or even the voyage home. Not effects heavy, simple story, well told.

The new Star Trek has not grabbed me. For now, I will stick with The Orville, while waiting for the new series of Lost In Space for my space-fixes

Have been really enjoying the Orville. Very TNG.

Ok, I’ll take a look.
First Discovery spin off announced, Star Trek Blackops (untitled so far) with Michel Yeoh. Stories about section 31.
I thought she was good, in both parts. Her, and the new Pike, I like as they are mature instead of having kids running around.
That’s the main thing missing from the casting compared to TOS and TNG is actors that look like adults. That look like they could be in charge of starships. Was particularly bad for Kelvin Spock.
