Corporations are, have always been, and always will be, most loyal to the almighty dollar. They exist to make money full stop. The U.A.E. threw a boatload of money at Disney to build a park and follow their rules, and Disney gladly accepted the money because that is what it is all about at the end o...

Star Trek should have more uniforms with pockets. People of the future will carry things and need need pockets for them.

Jones from Trouble with Tribbles is specifically described as having a "one-man spaceship." So, owning a private ship goes all the way back to TOS. Though, at the time, the Federation had "credits" and Starfleet personnel were paid. Let's just accept the fact there is a form of currency in the Feder...

I actually had an idea to go the Voyager route only one step further. A Federation Starship is sent to investigate raids on shipping in a remote area of the galaxy. They discover the raider is a ship of unknown design. They give chase and pass through a portal to end up in the Larger Magellanic Clou...

No Way Home basically says that MCU is creatively bankrupt and would rather destroy Peter's life, friends, and support structure to chase the nonexistent nostalgia for a Peter that is a loner loser with no real people who care for him than give him any taste of success. I actually hate it more than...

The big problem is Hollywood doesn't respect animation and especially 2D animation. They see it as a lesser form of entertainment (you just have to watch the Oscars and how they treat the best animated category). So, tying up theaters to show a bunch of "dated" films from an "inferior" medium was no...

There's also that moment of character development. "Huh. This is a new feeling: pride in someone else." And character consistency. "Unfortunately, this is overshadowed by all this UNYIELDING RAGE!!!" And how can I forget. "Jesus, I overslept. It's already night…for the first time since I got here…on...

Vegeta was a goldmine of comedy throughout. "Where's the moon? WHERE'S THE DAMN MOON?!" "MOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!" "We've learned to create artificial moons that provide the necessary—" "Question." "What?" "Are they made of green cheese?" "I'm going to enjoy this far more than I should." "At least, things ...

They're just throwing things against the wall to see what sticks. Frankly, I think all Viacom sees Star Trek as is something to push Paramount Plus. Maybe Skydance will sit these people down and make them actually define their vision for Trek beyond whatever idea pops in their heads, but I'll believ...

The thing is, doing something new with Trek is stupid easy. You create a ship, you create a crew who represent different aspects of the human condition, and you send them out into the Galaxy to explore. That is what Star Trek is. Add in a little gimmick and you're go to go. That's what Lower Decks a...
