William Shatner Confirms Talks for Star Trek Return at 93 Years Old
Sounds like the original James T. Kirk could bodly go once again in a new Trek project.
You're viewing a single thread.
If Kirk is going to come back, it has to mean something. It has to be the show. But I was so impressed by this writer, so I said let's talk after I'm done in Vancouver.
He had me in the first half, but thankfully this doesn't sound like another vanity project ala Picard S1/S2 🤞
“It has to mean something” to him, he means
Knowing Shatner’s ego, this project will never see the light of day unless it’s a vanity project.
I don't see Picard as a vanity project. It did try to resolve some of the the next gen story lines that was left open.
This?!? What story lines would this resolve?
Even though some don’t like the Kelvin timeline, Spock giving his last goodbye there was poignant and fitting to the story. I think Kirk said goodbye when he handed things over to Picard
Very fair point
It’s a matter of opinion of course, but to me Picard 1/2 suffers the same malady as S31: “all we need is a big star to sell our franchise”
Season 3 felt to me like the owners of the franchise desperately trying to salvage the final season from Patrick Stewart’s meddling.
As for Kirk’s stories you’re right he’s done if not already overdone, at least as a main character. Who knows how he may work as a supporting character 🤷♀️
