The fact that we’re stuck in prequel territory still, while now also being stuck a crazy amount of time in the future, except still stuck with legacy characters. I just want some completely fresh trek. Give me a season of a random crew in 2689 or something.
I don’t know if it would be possible but I’d love to see like a live action lower decks movie. I love what that show matured into
Nah, I reject the notion that all animation must mature into live action. Animation is the best artform for action scenes and showcasing the impossible. That's why every Marvel movie goes from live action in the beginning and middle, to an expensive CGI fight at the end. Marvel movies are evolving into animation. But they're taking a really bad route to get there, in that they start with live action and thus feel beholden to photorealism. If they would have just gone with animation from the beginning, then they could save money and dodge the uncanny valley by going with a stylised artstyle.
I want more animated cartoon Star Trek with an unrealistic artstyle and 22 minute episodes. And I want 50 episode seasons of cartoon trek!
Yeah the spider verse movies were pretty fucking awesome, it'd be great to see like a punisher movie in that vein, or maybe the suicide squad movies would have been less terrible like that. Honestly I can see a lot of mid superhero movies being made wayyy better just by animating then instead.
The Suicide Squad movie with Peacemaker was actually really good
I’m also fine with that. My matured comment mostly reflects season one feeling a bit too “edgy” or family guy humor. It found its footing and comedic balance quickly.
