Star Trek: Discovery (2017–2024)
10/10
This is not like the Star Trek we all know and love, which is a good thing....

So Im reading a lot of reviews of how unlike Start Trek this is... well.. if you want to see the last several decades of Star Trek we been getting again....go watch the last several decades again. For those who are saying Gene Roddenberry has been betrayed...news flash...the mans been dead for over 25 years now. If Star Trek is supposed to stay the same for ever, why bother making any more Star Trek movies or TV series?? Hey, I love the original series and Star Trek Generations and many of the Star Trek movies, but I don't expect it to stay the same for ever and ever. Are we expecting Batman movies not to change or evolve?

This is a new Star Trek, for a new audience and a new generation, if you are a purist, this might not be for you if you want the last several decades regurgitated. So far we're only 2 episodes in and I like where its going. It's definitely darker in terms of the Star Trek franchise, the same can be said if you compare Adam West as Batman on TV to Christian Bale going up against Heath Ledger's Joker.

This Star Trek looks like it has an intensity none of the other Star Treks could pull off, it's gritty and harsh and war is starting. Its not supposed to be campy and humorous, and I really don't think a lot of purist and Trekkies will be able to handle whats to come and might want to tune into the Orvile to get their regurgitated Star Trek fix.

It's a bit early to see a lot of character development with Star Trek Discovery, but I'm looking forward to see whats in store.
