    It’s worth noting that the last time I heard Ben Stiller talking Trek - five years ago on the official podcast - he made it pretty clear that he was a TOS fan, and hadn’t really seen anything else.

    Nothing wrong with that at all, but relevant IMO.

    Also, he definitely doesn’t actually have a pitch.

    …they asked him “Do you have any Star Trek pitches?” He promptly replied, “Yeah, let’s do it.”

      Christ… TOS is the worst of them for like the first 6 shows or something. Uncultured swine.

        What’s wrong with it? It’s very much a product of its time, but it’s still serviceable.

          Just the acting, the writing, and the effects mostly. Otherwise, not so bad.
