Star Trek Beyond - Part 3

[roach]

Sometimes. You'll either see someone announce it on twitter or Paramount puts out an updated slate and people notice there's no Star Trek movie on it.
If they are sitting down to write the next movie it means they have signed a contract and someone has paid them.

 

[MadVillainy]

But there is no confirmation that that was what they were writing was there? Also plenty of writers get hired to write movies that don't happen

And before anyone starts whining and calling me a hater, naysayer or something else stupid: I want there to be another film. I'll just be surprised if it happens especially if Hemsworth involved which can't be cheap if it's a major role

 

[Iceman]

The cast remains as great as ever across all of these films. They need to work on better/more impacting stories and villains though. I feel the last film was a bit of a backward step when this was the time to really get ambitious and get more people on board with the foundations all set.

 

[ehh]

The cast is absolutely fine. I think Star Trek needs a Kevin Feige type figure to oversee the franchise, but that won't be happening.

 

[Iceman]

If it's just going to be one main franchise without spinoff series then a Feige figure coordinating the ideas and events of multiple franchises is probably not as needed but they do need someone overseeing long term direction here.

 

[roach]

That would be the job of the producer. What prevents there being an overall person to coordinate movies and tv is that the rights are shared between Paramount and CBS

Yeah I was about to say that I don't think they need a Feige type person. The quality of the movies are fine for the most part
I mean it wouldn't hurt but this isn't some cinematic universe where that would help a lot. At least not yet....

 

[Schlosser85]

The cast isn't the problem, although some of them could use more/better material.

They need better villains, but Trek has always had more than its share of lame villains.

 

[psylockolussus]

I want to see a female lead villain or a group of individuals as villains. That would be very interesting to me.

 

[ehh]

That would be the job of the producer. What prevents there being an overall person to coordinate movies and tv is that the rights are shared between Paramount and CBS

It's beyond just an ordinary producer role. Feige has extensive comic book knowledge and helps map out the entire MCU.

Yes, the Star Trek films and TV shows are separate, but they can have a "Feige" like person in charge of the movies. Perhaps the same for the TV shows. Or it can be the same guy acting as a bridge between CBS and Paramount.

 

[roach]

There still doesn't need to be a Feige type person over Star Trek. There's no need to have an extensive knowledge of Trek if the new movies pretty much throw all that out of the window.

 

[ehh]

What a poorly written article. It only regurgitates the speculation that's been reported before and says that Star Trek 4 will depend on the performance of Star Trek Beyond, which has already come and gone from theaters.

Here's my problem. There's nothing new in that article. All it does is link and regurgitate the same news from two separate stories of which there is little. That news? Simon Pegg posted a picture of him and Doug Jung on Twitter. All it says is "Today." The assumption is they are writing the start of the fourth movie. It actually links two separate stories that both say the same thing.

There is so little news about this movie that everyone is just repeating the same things from each website or blog over there.

 

[ehh]

We are all just desperate for some kind of news.

 

[TheVileOne]

I can understand that, but there's literally nothing in there we haven't seen shared already for the last couple pages.

 

[ehh]

So how about those current events?

 

[Mysteryman]

So how about those current events?

Which current events are those?

 

[ehh]

Which current events are those?

Ehh, I don't know. But none of them are Star Trek related.

 

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

I think Abrams would now be this franchises Fiege if anyone. Though I am hoping if a 4th movie happens he will come back to direct it. He seems to be getting better as a director and for me The Force Awakens was his best movie yet.

 

[ehh]

If he doesn't direct, he should at least come back and try to have some sort of active role in the franchise's direction.

[Rowsdower!]

Although I enjoyed this film and felt like it was a more appropriate sequel to Star Trek '09 than Into Darkness was, I still feel like this series has a third act problem in which the crew is always racing to keep the bad guys from destroying Earth or something acting as an Earth stand in (in this case, Yorktowne, I think it was called?). That's a common trope in superhero movies, but I think it works better there than it does in something like Star Trek. Additionally, we've now had three straight films where the villain's whole motivation is revenge on Starfleet. I mean seriously, how many people is Starfleet going to piss off? I hope that next time, they get involved in a conflict rather than find out they are the source of one.

The New Power of "Yes": Who Actually Has Greenlight Authority at the Movie Studios
Paramount re-evaluates Brad Grey's influence as industry upheavals alter internal politics all over town and committees become the norm. Gripes one producer, "You used to know whom to appeal to — and now you're not sure."

BRAD GREY’S EXIT AT PARAMOUNT IS IMMINENT (EXCLUSIVE)
Grey’s departure from his post as Chairman and CEO of the studio is imminent — as in, no longer a matter of “if,” but a matter of “when,”

While Paramount has numerous Oscar nominations this year thanks to Fences and Arrival, the studio’s box office fortunes have been decidedly mixed, with Monster Trucks, Silence, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot and Rings among its recent flops. The studio also took a hefty write-down on Star Trek Beyond, and saw both Ben-Hur and Zoolander 2 underperform.

The Wrap May 15, 2013:
How the Battle Over 'Star Trek' Rights Killed J.J. Abrams' Grand Ambitions
The franchise's licensing and merchandising rights are split between CBS and Paramount which created headaches for the multihyphenate's production company Bad Robot

 

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

Wonder how that effects chances of a sequel then?

 

[Kathemy]

I very much doubt we'll see another Trek movie in this decade.
