          Deleting STD won't fix the franchise because all the people who made STD and thought Spock's moronic sister Burnham was a good idea are still in place and still making decisions. Most of the people who agreed to Beastie Boys Trek are still there.

            I loathe Kurtzman, but to be fair, he was not involved in the first 2-3 seasons of STD. His trek is even worse in its own dishonest way.

            Control was Section 31's threat assessment system. It relied on artificial intelligence and was located in a data center at Section 31 Headquarters.
            When exposed to the mystical ancient sphere data, control became self aware and assessed all organic life as an eventual threat, so basically, SKYNET from the Terminator franchise, but somehow more capeshit.

The point is you're acting like this does not fit in with his character when its literally how EVERY member of his family has been revealed since day one. Anyone that says she does not fit with the rest is talking out of their ass.

I really hated it when one of the features (STAR TREK V) came up with a half brother for Spock when I had always insisted he had no other siblings. But I guess it isn’t "canon" if I wrote it.

      This depends if we're talking theory or practice. It's not like it's impossible to tell cool stories in the SW universe. KOTOR or TFU were cool stories that were complete enough for everyone to enjoy: action, romance, humor. So theoretically possible.

      In practice this won't happen of course, because you're asking elementary softball players to play MLB. Modern writers simply aren't capable of it. Worse, they can't help themselves by messing with proven stories. So whatever they'd come up with would be a complete and utter failed abortion of a movie or show.

      But this could also be said of Star Trek. Unless STD and lower decks is somehow inspiring your confidence. The only reason Star Trek edges out Star Wars is because the two "new" movies weren't completely incoherent nonsense unlike the new trilogy.

    Star Wars can always shift thousands of years forward or backward and start over. That's what Kotor 1 was. Plus it's action pulp so it can survive being awful and bloated. Star Trek is confined to a few hundred years in the future and needs some semblance of respectability for its formula of diplomacy + exploration to work. A lot of people now don't even know what made Star Trek good in the first place.

      you say that, but they'd been doing nothing but dwell on the era between the prequels and the OT ever since Disney bought it, and even before that. A span of what, 30 years between the start and fall of the empire? Hell, Clone Wars ran for so long, they must have covered every week in between the 3 years between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith.

        There were 133 episodes across the 7 seasons, so on average an episode of the clones wars happens about every 8 days in the Star Wars universe. I never thought about that, but it’s a ridiculous level of activity for a few people over 3 years. Their bodies literally couldn’t keep up

          It checks out that a war between two equally matched polities battling for control of an entire galaxy would be a very active thing with little downtime. Still I'd argue that some unconnected arcs may take place at the same time so there might be a bit more downtime than that.

          Some episodes are two parters, a couple of arcs are completely unrelated and have few if any main characters in them and the last couple of episodes take place at the same time as revenge of the sith. It still a shit lot of events happening in a couple of years but it fits with the narrative that the clone wars were kind of brutal. Besides they are space samurais/wizards, they have a little more stamina and endurance than regular people.

    The Disney Star Wars sequels were utter shit but aside from those the other Disney Wars productions have been at worst mediocre and occasionally actually good.

    In contrast Star Trek has been getting routinely shit on with the sole exception of Picard season 3 which was the only good Trek of the last decade and arguably Lower Decks and Prodigy which were at least not complete abominations.

    Star Trek. Star Wars is pretty much the same its always been as just a dumb silly adventure for kids. Star Trek on the other hand shits all over the fundamental philosophies of the franchise and it's never going to get better because they want to reach a completely different audience and fans are so starved and abused for decent Star Trek content they're okay with that too.

    Star wars.
    Treck has been around for longer, and it's current projects ranges from shit to decent. The crappy shows are also easily retconnable out from the Canon, most of them living inside their own vacuum while the series can easily be resurrected with some good writers.
    Meanwhile SW is set on a dead end thanks to the whole sequel trilogy, which has been released as a movie (so Canon for most of the people around the world) and disney seems adamant about not erasing it... On the contrary, they've set most of their post-OT shows into following said Canon... So retconning it out would mean retconning also a lot of interconnected and bad shows too.... Which would be a complete financial failure for Lucasfilm and disney... So it's never happening unless by some unexpected miracle

        true.

        Andor has like a handful of kino moments that are spread among hours and hours of fast food like crap.

        It's crazy, because at it's core we're looking at a heist movie, a spy thriller and a prison break. How did they manage to make it so tedious at times?
        Even so it's better than anything else star wars has done in the past decade aside from Rogue one and mandalorian (the first half of season 1).

    DS9 brought in Star Wars fans and hence, plebs into the fandom. I'm not saying DS9 is bad. I'm saying it attracted the pew pew spesh lazers crowd. With it, came women who saw the relatively progressive Trek universe and thought they belong. This combination first led to the Enterprise series and nu-movies where Trek turned into a country western pastiche (to please the SW crowd) and then the Discovery series which pandered to the tumblr crowd. From then on it went downhill fast.

    Trek had it worse, but Trek also has more of a possible future if they clean house, stop being edgelords, and recenter on being a thoughtful sci fi series. All the crappy Trek content they've made is easily ignorable. Just make The Next Generation 2.0 with a new cast in a new part of space encountering new things and (provided it's actually good) you're golden.

    Star Wars kind of fricked itself by having everything in the entire universe culminate with Rey turning into the Jedi Avatar and asploding Palpatine, who had already absorbed all the Sith and became the Dark Avatar. It's the biggest thing to ever happen in that universe and reframed all content as leading to that ultimate confrontation. Luke, Leia and Han were also all killed off at their lowest moments and having made everything worse specifically so this new character could redeem their (contrived) failures in an ebin lightshow battle with Some Guy she doesn't even have any real connection to who's only there because we, the audience, recognize who he is. Disney Star Wars is basically Brian Herbert Dune. There's little hope without just nuking the new canon they've created and starting over.

    multiverse was always a thing in trek, so literally everything can be cut off at the point where star trek 2009 splits the old canon into the new canon, while leaving the nu-trek technically in-canon. everything one likes can be basically head-canoned into being legitimate given the infinite multiverses
    lower decks and season 3 of picard are okay despite being nu-canon (though LD seems to do most of the heavy lifting in terms of actually interacting with old canon)

    for star wars, the idea that it was like real history, a "saga" that went in one direction based on "destiny", works in the opposite direction to the capeshit "multiverse" idea where bad business decision and hubraic hebris can be negated retroactively by retcon
    so they got off to a bad start by completely disowning the old canon while making an inferior version
    tentative steps were taken in side media to make a multiverse or time travel possible, but for all intensive porpoises, Israel wants the funkopop-buying audience to care as much about three and a half tv shows as the old fans did about 30 years of novels and comics and video games, as if that's "all there is to it", or that they care as much about the previous multi-billion dollar movie's continuity as much as the old lucasfilm crowd cared about the continuity of unpopular novels 30 years apart from each other

    Both of these have been throughly desecrated. Its hard to say. Star Wars however has had its rape more publically displayed than Star Trek. When you ask random people about Star Trek, they think of the original series or maybe Next Generation. No one really watched the putrid shit that has been produced recently. But with Star Wars, way more people were witness to it. The reputation of Star Wars is more associated with the shit in the general population. Its more visibly stained, even if both are stained to the core.

    Star Trek was dealing in weird timelines and over the top twilight zone style crazy shit like that from the beginning they can always just reset everything at some point and say “uhh yeah ..that other garbage happened in another universe” in Star Wars this is much more difficult. It was more like a carefully constructed gem a sci-fi world with defined boundaries and an internal story about the Skywalker family and the battle between Sith and Jedi, it’s more of a fragile series that really deserved much more careful planning and handling than it received. Star Wars doesn’t have any path to bouncing back. The only hope I guess would be if they sell it to some other company and that company publicly apologizes to the fans for all this garbage that has been produced and simply declares it not canon. Everything made after 1990 should be considered non-canon and sort of EU expansionist stuff. Then..perhaps, hire someone artistic and with a high degree of skill, like a young George Lucas type a film maker in art school, and maybe let them have a crack at making a trilogy set in that same universe but about a different family and different Jedi and Sith, maybe hundreds of years later or hundreds of years before the original trilogy. No woke shit, no “poetry”, no CGI everywhere, just good real cinematography, an excellent original and compelling story with a heroes arc, good morals, etc. it would have to 100% stand on its own without leaning in the OT. that 100% will never happen though, so I think trek is in a better place because they could do that instantly and there would be no issues, with Star Wars it’s just not going to happen.

          Yes, I know. And today the best selling titles in American comics do less business than most big city food trucks. If you tell such shitty stories for such a long time that people stop watching, it doesn't help you to reset things, because have people have stopped watching. To continue the comparison, Marvel and DC could start printing the best stories ever told in human history, and it wouldn't matter now because who would even know?

        I get your point but I still think that if they reset the product and then put it back on course in a good direction I do think that could be a way of making a truce with a lot of the fans who may be willing to give it one last chance or at least making new fans. If this were done in Star Wars, they sold the company they apologized for the trash made post 1990 and de-canonized all of that trash, then made actual decent films with creative and talented film makers just solid entertaining films or tv shows I could absolutely see myself watching these again. But it’s just not going to happen so this discussion is mostly meaningless. I do think trek is in a better place though. I watched the black mirror episode “space fleet” which was a fake version of star trek and I was literally blown away. I was like holy shut, THAT is more Star Trek than anything I’ve seen since TNG. If they just released a show like that with cute girls, retro effects and designs and a strong male lead with charisma going on adventures I would absolutely watch that show. Instead, they make these weird constipated sexless shows with women completely covered up with hamfisted morals about social justice, uncharismatic female captains, everything seems stiff and uptight, regurgitated plots, it’s not fun, it’s not interesting, it’s like SJW propaganda in Star Trek clothing, it’s just crap. People want to see adventure, interesting stories, cute girls, charismatic men, cool effects and real science fiction. Fans could return to both franchises if they course correct, but they absolutely will not.

                There have absolutely always been incel types, these are men who would be too weak to hunt so they would stay behind to try and get crumbs of pussy (often through nonviolent rape, like the modern predditor or discord groomer). This was a viable survivor strategy, because there will always be crumbs of pussy, and as a whole it's good for a village to have men staying behind and improving the village or providing services to try and attract a mate.
                At some point the incel types kind of took over, but not quite, because guys like Isaac Newton died without ever seeing a titty.
                The problem is the sexual revolution dried up all the pussy crumbs finally until women reach a certain age, unless if you want to argue sexual dynamics are the exact same as they were before the revolution. Now we all get to feel the impotent frick rage of a million soibois.

                The problem is the public school system separates parents from their kids 5/7 days of the week and can show kids an environment where you will get constant praise and attention for coming out as trans even if you're not yet capable of understanding what a boy or girl really is. I can try to teach my kids right and wrong, but I can't teach a 5 year old how to mentally prepare for constant a constant psychological barrage of ideology outside of their understanding.

Some things you don't really know until you experience them, that's the problem. I don't have any problems if trannies identify the flags for PERSISTENT gender euphoria, but most of the discussion I see is just shutting down questions, especially from non-consenting parents, so it doesn't give me confidence. In my country there's a guy who the courts keep putting in prison for so much as talking to his daughter the wrong way, this is a girl who had mental problems long before gender dysphoria, he should at least be allowed to ask if this is real and get informed.

                Except it’s not that simple. There is a trans pipeline people like Jessie Gender utilize ruthlessly to induct more people into their sexual cult.
                1. Gender dysphoria can occur during adolescence. It passes with time.
                2. However, if the kid stumbles upon a YouTube video telling them that they’re actually trans, they’ll go down that rabbit hole.
                3. They’ll join Discord servers and private communities where everyone is affirming their transness, while parents are oblivious to what is happening.
                4. Next thing you know, the kid is requesting gender affirmative care. By that point, it’s too late to object, and the doctor takes over.
                5. The doctor will usually make a nice buck off of enabling the kid’s transition.
                Do you see how fricked up this is? I say kid because it happened to my girlfriend’s cousin, but it can happen to anyone regardless of age. It’s a dangerous movement, and Jessie Gender is part of it.

      THIS

      they permanently f'd-up Trek by going to the future with Discovery, where space crybaby blew up all ships everywhere, and the Federation disolved, and Earth went back to literal build-a-wall-around-it xenophobes. Earth was even mad about helping mysterious masked people who turned out to be -other Humans- from Jupiter Moon (or somethng I don't remember)

      So much for "evolved humans" and a better tomorrow. Nope. We all turn out to be "regular people" afterall.

      They basically "jobbed" THE WHOLE POINT of Star Trek to make Michael Burnham and the Discovery ship look like they were the best thing ever, when they save the ideals of the Federation. (and for a brief moment of "WHOA! What is going on!" shock and surprise.)

      And even if they re-time-travel to fix the crybaby event that caused the Federation to disband, the point is that it DID. And humanity went back to the old ways. So the bright future is pointed out as a complete crock of shit illusion that goes away when we run out of gas and have not yet invented electric cars (was that the metaphor they were going with? IDK)

      I'm not saying that Trek can't fix it, they need to basically admit Discovery did not travel into the future, but also a different dimension, as well. But that might also be too late since Guardian of Forever told Mirror Universe Michelle Yeoh that SHE was, and did not mention the rest of Discovery. He might have been coy, let's hope so.

          Same reason they pay for literally hundreds of shows that people don't watch. It's like you people are stuck in that childlike state where you think all the adults are infallible. The netflix strategy has been "pay for ANYTHING" for most of your life.

        All they had to do was hire fanboys on the level of Matt Stone and Trey Parker to run wild within some established rules. But instead they did the opposite. Brought on people who either hated or didn't understand Star Trek to make shows for other people who either hate or don't understand Star Trek. And now they wonder why they can't find an audience.

        Then why did Netflix buy it?

        > *screams*

        Netflix has the international rights to Star Trek. They're probably testing the waters to see if they can buy the franchise outright. Now Paramount can be The Yellowstone Network.

          Paramount is giving Netflix a run for their money when it comes to gayness. I’m not sure if I can take another lesbian season of Lesbian Decks written by Jessie Gender.

      Yes, but people who have no job have seen that they didn't lock the doors to corporate with a chain so that means there's no trouble at all, because zoomers can only understand extremes. You're either the most successful company EVAR or the company closed last week, and if it's not one it must be the other.

        The tech in Star Wars is several orders of magnitude better than anything in Star Trek, despite the later having a shinier appearance. The whole idea of Voyager was that it would take one of the fastest ships ever built seventy years to make a trip a rusty drug smuggler could make in two weeks.

    They are both fricked. Star Wars is ruined while the central complaints of the ST are unresolved. Vader didn't kill the Emperor. That said, I feel like Star Wars as a setting is more workable. Star Trek is very vulnerable to political trends because it takes place in the real world so their history is us, while Star Wars doesn't even take place in the same galaxy and is more of a fable.

    Because Vulcans are so much stronger than humans despite not being visibly larger, we can conclude that Vulcan muscles are much stronger than the equivalent amount of human muscle. Therefore a Vulcan's veganal grip would be inhumanely strong, and may actually pull it off

    Zoomer take; I grew up with Star Wars and after the Disney films I pretty much accepted that it was over, for me at least. I've talked to younger zoomers that have only seen the sequels, so the current state of wars it pretty bad. I'm new to Trek but for me it feels like since it has a smaller audience, fewer people have seen the bad stuff and accepted it as canon. Were they to revive the franchise properly, I think it would be an easier time to gloss over Discovery etc than for Wars to forget the sequels.

    The only way for a franchise to survive decades is to remain creator owned and to pass to children that try to protect it. But eventually even that fails, Chris Tolkien died and here comes Rings of Power. We need new things to fill the Star Wars and Star Trek archetypes. But the idea of creator ownership is long gone too, someone like Lucas negotiating with Fox and getting to keep the rights will never happen again.

      Gene Roddenberry passed Star Trek to Rick Berman who would protect it.
      He did mean well, it's just some decisions made were... poor. Many other things that went wrong were out of his hands, though.
      After that is when israeliteisraelite Abrahams grabbed it, then Alex Kurtzman.

    Star Trek has shitty fans that can't get along with each other.
    For fans of shows about cooperation and compromise, Mallrats and TNGeezers do not walk the walk.
    You don't even have to like the new shows, they frick with Enterprise, Voyager, and TOS fans. I am guessing that Star Wars fans have a similar type that grumbles angrily about anything made after Return of the Jedi. I haven't ever seen a Star Wars fan dance a jig every time Disney stock prices drop 12 cents. /trek/ has an assclown that does that shit for 20 hours a day.

    Voyager killed Trek a long time ago, and Enterprise sealed the casket in six feet of concrete with that ridiculous intro. In hindsight that was the origin of Beastie Boys Trek, the canary in the coal mine on just how out of touch the decision makers were.

      Beastie boys trek did well enough. You’re the one who’s out of touch moron that’s why you don’t feel like it’s made for you. It isn’t made for you in the same way a racist was not meant to enjoy TOS. You’re not supposed to like it. It’s supposed to start a conversation among the people who relate on how to most humanly remove you from a society of whom you refuse to respect others rights to live. Ideally you would change your mind and actually join the conversation instead of copy pasting rhetoric like a drooling troll. There is a killing setting for a reason though. If you keep threatening people you will most surely die yourself
