“I can't imagine it would have been good, but boy do I wish I existed in a universe where this movie had been made.” — This is the perfect reaction and I cannot improve on it in any way.
The best way I have to describe this kind of movie is "delightfully terrible."
I have a feeling that there are fans of Star Trek V The Final Frontier here.
The lesson should be that bizarre ideas for 5th movies should never be brought to screen.
This sounds terrible! Thanks for sharing
“It’s revolting!”
“More?”
“Please!”
Something would bring all the great Star Trek villains together
thanks, i hate it
Damn I read the ideas for Star Trek: The Beginning. Besides the stupid name it sounds like an awesome idea to see the first Earth - Romulan war and have something bridge the gap between ENT and TOS
So as everyone else has said ... yuck!
But then I quickly remembered "... All good things". Time travel, big CGI thing in the sky, reuniting with old characters (Tasha, O'Brien) ... and it works very well, especially as a send off.
I'm thinking that there's a kernel in there as a farewell to TNG era trek. Maybe not something where Picard becomes a literal Time Lord, but more where a drastic event has forced time-bending onto everyone at the epi-center of the event and any attempt of take advantage of it also entails some cost and the only way to fix the "breaking of time" is to do something incredibly starfleet.
There's no evil per se just things breaking and people taking advantage of it. And Borg 🤷 .
. He goes back to the moment before Data blows up and takes him back to get Kirk and Spock
This reads more like a treatment for Star Trek Generations. as if they realized how stupid that movie is, and wanted to fix it
Yo this sounds like a phaser beam dodged to me. This just confirms that there is a worse timeline after all
Lol this is such an optimistic perspective. Thank you. :)
Really though, I just would have wanted to see Archer on the big screen, regardless of quality.
Justice league of Star Trek crew ultimate team up….
Where is this movie and how do I pay to see it :/ yes it would likely be terrible but seeing Kirk vs Janeway dynamic or spock vs Kira debates arguments etc
And those are the first two that come to mind
This is something I would have loved to hate.
I think this is a great take.
I get the appeal. Cross overs are enticing. But Zach Snyder's justice League demonstrates a huge challenge that most people don't seem to discuss: the recruitment needs to have a purpose.
Remember when Batman is asking Aquaman to be in his ~~movie~~ team? It's clear that the only reason is that the team is not a means, it's the end. He doesn't need him for any particular reason, he just spends the he could be trying to ~solve~ a mystery building a club from scratch with no clear purpose. I think this set up would have the same problem.
In some contexts this would be called a solution without a problem. I couldn't agree more!
Would Abraham Lincoln and Surak be on team Starfleet, like in TOS' "The Savage Curtain" (s3e22)? Would everyone enter a fight suit that would join together into a giant fighting robot that has a shiny Starfleet insignia on it? Justice League of Starfleet. I just can't.
Star Trek: Voltron does sound kind of dope.
The Generations we should have had.
Not even kidding the premise is goofy but with a visionary director and sincere enough attempt, this could have been amazing.
We should have gotten some DS9 movies before this mess was ever considered.
God, this pitch makes so little sense on so many levels. Star Trek has never been about the villains, so having a batman-style villain team-up makes no sense. Seven samurai in space with time travel is a reasonable pitch, but why would you need to build a team that involves a captain, a captain, a science officer, and a captain?
Star Trek: Gladiator 2.
Taking the time travel from All Good Things and going a little too nuts with it.
boy do I wish I existed in a universe where this movie had been made.
I have the exact opposite opinion lol
Same! I've always considered time travel to be a "plot cheat code" because it allows writers to do whatever they want. This works out ok sometimes but other times it just makes for bizarre stories that defy belief. This would definitely be the latter kind!
I enjoy ST largely because it's believable (in a broad strokes ignore the details kind of way) so far-fetched stories don't do it for me as much. Time travel is firmly in "never gonna happen" territory.
