Sad news.  http://www.ew.com/article/2016/06/19/anton-yelchin-dead-dies

 

Anton Yelchin- who played Chekov in the Star Trek trilogy; died in a freak accident.  :(

 

 

TMZ reported he got pinned by his own car, while getting his mail.

What CBS's is going to try with this new TV show; you are going to need the really die hard Trekkers to make it successful. There's a big portion of those Trekkers who despise the Abbrams movies.

....

No it is the die hard Next Generation fans that despise the Abrams movies but they're not real Trekkers anyway.

Or there are some of us who are big fans of the original series and see how unfaithful JJ Trek is to the characters and the overall essence of star trek.

Exactly. There are fans from all series and movies that dislike the JJ films. Hell, many people and critics dislike his movies for what they are - spectacle and style with no substance or intelligence.

Well, they came up with a name for the JJ-verse.

 

"The Kelvin Timeline".

CBS/Paramount came up with guidelines for those fans films. IF you don't want to be sued; then follow them:

A Gay or Lesbian Captian would be groundbreaking.  Having a Muslim and Hispanic would also be interesting.

Saudi Prince Bandar was speaking with George W Bush one day, and mentioned howuch his son loves Star Trek. "There's just one thing he doesn't understand...why are there never any Arabs on the show?"

GWB smiled. "That's because it takes place in the future."

They had a gay Captain....Captain Sulu.

As for religion, they touched on that one too in Undiscovered Country. Other then that religion has been completely left out. I'd rather they just get back to the science of star trek
