Oh great, another recast of the TOS crew, but they’re all preteens hijacking a spaceship and fighting preteen Romulans together? Also, they form this deep and meaningful bond that has to be reset/memory wiped by the end of the movie yet somehow steer them onto a shared future?

That’s…a lot of assumptions not in any way supported by the linked article.

Not assumption, just worst fears when they give us so little to go on after two or three aborted or stalled movies 🙂

To be fair, it’s also not supported by any other articles.

If it’s dystopian and not utopic, they can keep it and hopefully lose money. Star Trek isn’t Star Wars.

Alex Kurtzman ran for mayor of my town just to make it illegal for me to watch TNG :(

Just rewatched Into Darkness. It still holds up, if the whitewashing doesn’t bother you.

Recasting one actor for a character that race isn’t an important characteristic isn’t white washing.

The problem with Into Darkness is how bad the writing and acting are. They took one of the most popular Star Trek movies and remade it badly.

To be fair, I wouldn’t exactly call original Khan good representation either, in the sense that he draws on some negative ethnic stereotypes.

Still a fun villain, though.

Tbh I’d rather just more content from the modern age of Star Trek.

There’s no evidence it’s not! First Contact was a TNG movie after all.
