I honestly have not watched most of them and probably would not if I had the opportunity.
Why? I’m a normie who liked #STTOS, #STTNG, #STDS9, but never learned Klingon or wore fake Vulcan ears. The original movies were garbage (ST:Generations was okay), but the first of the JJ Abrams was good. I know Trekkies hated it, but normies liked it. I have not seen any of the newer series or movies.
In some respect, it is like seeing someone you knew in high school at the mall. It’s okay to say “I really liked the old days” and ask how they are doing and what their life has been like since you knew each other. But it is not okay to decide at 40 or even 80 years old that you and your old school buddy are going to try to relive those years. You’re not the same people and you’ve evolved your lives independently.
So I see no reason (other than “hey, we can make more money”) for Paramount to re-launch Star Trek every five or ten years. Instead, create a new story or set of stories, set in a new universe, with new plots, new characters, and a new objective. -

I watched reruns of ST:TOS (the original series) for many years. I enjoyed it immensely. I will never be a Trekkie. I just like the show.
I saw an occasional ST:TNG or ST:DS9 episode if I lingered while dropping off #sonOne after a visit, but by that time, I had no TV, so other than probably 5 the next generation and probably 2 deep space nine episodes, I never saw them.
I have never seen any episodes of any other ST series.
The original ST movies were awful garbage. I enjoyed ST:Generations (the movie in which Capt Kirk dies), but the ones that preceded it were not good. The movie with the whale was so fake that it felt like "hey, we're running out of money, let's pump the franchise again to refill our accounts".
I saw the first JJ Abrams Star Trek movie. I actually enjoyed it. I can see why Trekkies hated it, but the earlier movies were chasing off normies. This movie made it possible for regular people to enjoy Star Trek again. That said, I have not seen any later ST movies.
I like ST, but I'm not ever going to be obsessed with it. -

Ricardus (ricardus)'s status on Monday, 22-Jul-2019 01:25:51 UTC Ricardus Brent Spiner confirmed that he IS playing Data. (not B-4)

Ricardus (ricardus)'s status on Monday, 22-Jul-2019 01:19:17 UTC Ricardus I think the only question that matters is, why in the new Picard trailer was Picard hanging around the Anaheim Convention Center? Was he going to NAMM?

Ricardus (ricardus)'s status on Sunday, 21-Jul-2019 16:16:45 UTC Ricardus I'm totally OK with the Picard series as long as Moriarty comes back and kicks his ass.
-
Ricardus (ricardus)'s status on Saturday, 20-Jul-2019 21:06:51 UTC Ricardus So... like HOLY SHIT. The Picard series will bring back Data (in the form of B-4 seemingly). 7 of 9, and Hugh (the self aware Borg).
I wanna say I hate this because it's fan service, but I love all of those characters, so I can't wait to see what they do with it.

Ricardus (ricardus)'s status on Monday, 27-May-2019 02:57:55 UTC Ricardus The Enterprise D had more than one Dr. So why does DS9, which is many times bigger than a Galaxy class starship, only have one?

Ricardus (ricardus)'s status on Wednesday, 10-Apr-2019 20:05:12 UTC Ricardus The DS9 Doc comes out on May 13th in select theaters. Hopefully they do a streaming release too.

Ricardus (ricardus)'s status on Monday, 08-Apr-2019 00:05:32 UTC Ricardus I've said this before, I'll say it again. I really wish the Gary Seven potential Star Trek spinoff actually happened. That's a show I would have liked to have seen.

Ricardus (ricardus)'s status on Saturday, 30-Mar-2019 22:55:41 UTC Ricardus I really need to see Jason Statham in the Star Trek universe. Maybe Section 31? Or maybe just a real badass good guy. MAKE IT HAPPEN.

Ricardus (ricardus)'s status on Sunday, 24-Feb-2019 16:50:50 UTC Ricardus So I was going through my DVD and CD boxes that I pulled out of storage some months ago, and I found this. I didn't really remember buying it, then I remembered that Mike Okuda (Star Trek graphic designer, I follow him on FB) mentioned a few years ago that Amazon or something had a sale on these for like $20. I guess I pulled the trigger. 1-6. All of the Kirk/Spock films.
Time for a marathon!!
