Remans weren't mentioned but then neither the Romulan or Klingon empires were really explained. Presumably there were some other conquered races that made up these "empires" but we never heard too much about them if anything

It's just so insanely on the nose. "We all know the story of Romulus and Remus. But what if... Star Trek?"

I like how Star Trek Online had the Gorn and the Nausicaans as conscripted members of the Klingon Empire. It makes sense to me that the Romulans and Klingons would make use of a conquered planet’s population for cannon fodder.

Lloyd Kaufman's Star Trek He's the best in the business at making absolutely no money off lovely, low-budget crap. It might be exactly what the franchise needs, because when you know you won't turn a profit you can just go for broke and make exactly what you want. No compromise, no giving in. Just the story you want to tell. Also, I want to see the Kabukiman car flip wedged inexplicably into Trek.

Tarantino met for hours in a writers room with Mark L. Smith, Lindsey Beer, Drew Pearce and Megan Amram. They kicked around ideas and one of them will get the job. I’m hearing the frontrunner is Smith, who wrote The Revenant. The film will most certainly go where no Star Trek has gone before: Tarantino has required it to be R rated, and Paramount and Abrams agreed to that condition. Most mega budget tent poles restrict the film to a PG-13 rating in an effort to maximize the audience. That was the reason that Guillermo Del Toro’s $150 million At The Mountains of Madness didn’t go forward at Universal, even though Tom Cruise was ready to star. The exception to this rule was Fox’s Deadpool, but that film started out with modest ambitions before it caught on and became the biggest R rated film ever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkBMAHUkibY

Marshal Radisic posted:As for why the crew never seem to use EVA suits in situations where hazard protection and a portable air supply would actually be useful, I suppose it's a combination of the main actors not wanting to wear uncomfortable, bulky suits for a long shoot and a desire to see the actors on the screen without their faces and silhouettes being masked by a suit. It's probably less "actors not wanting [anything]" (unless the actor's name is Patrick Stewart) and way more "if we keep them in the same costume all day we don't have to lose any shooting time waiting for the actors to get dressed". Grand Fromage posted:Yeah. I don't see why it'd have to be a crime movie but you could easily do a Tarantino criminal Star Trek movie if you just put it outside the Federation. We already saw the edges of that world in DS9. If it's just bump-heads in space doing crimes I'm not sure why making it a Star Trek would be more compelling than nearly any other setting.

I don’t think this is gonna be space gangsters, Tarantino may have pigeonholed himself a bit but if he is making this movie for Paramount under auspices of Abrams he is surely going to focus on the same characters as the last three movies. All the more so if it’s R-rated, that’s a big risk to take. Maybe he’ll finally get a decent performance out of Quinto.

Repetition posted:There was a tension between Picard and this admiral? Is she the one who tried to drumhead him? No, Nechayev was the one who was pissy about Picard not using Hugh to cyberattack the Borg.
