After three straight days of running around #SDCC, I was able to finally catch my breath and celebrate all the amazing #StarTrek news coming out of Comic-Con on the latest WeeklyTrek podcast w/ @alextperry.bsky.social. Great fun was had by all (then I returned to my "Adventure Hour" spaceship). #SNW

Paramount made such a mistake letting him get away, but their stupidity is the MCU’s gain. Also, Galactus is the Doomsday Machine. If you like #StarTrek but you’ve been iffy on the MCU, give FF a chance. It requires NO knowledge of ANY other movie. As a Trek and MCU fan, I am EATING.

#FantasticFourΒ  is a #StarTrek movie and I LOVED it. The character dynamics sizzle, there’s a lot more outer space than the trailers have shown, the midcentury modern production design and most importantly the hope and optimism for a better future. Shakman did make his Star Trek, just for Marvel.

It’s less about it going only five seasons - I expected that - but that the final season is only 6 episodes.

Yeah it’s certainly not lost on me that 2027 lines everything up with what we understand is the current Secret Hideout contract end date.

This is a clear sign that there must be some very serious financial challenges at Paramount+ when #StarTrekStrangeNewWorlds - a verifiably popular show according to industry data - can't make it to 50 episodes. Very disappointing, and creates a big question mark about the future of #StarTrek.

Beyond his impressive run in the #StarTrek comics world, Peter David authored of some of the most memorable #StarTrek tie-in novels β€” the legendary IMZADI, the extraordinary Q-SQUARED, plus VENDETTA, Q-IN-LAW, and the entire NEW FRONTIER series.

A great loss - RIP indeed.

Go see #Thunderbolts! It’s fun, funny, thoughtful, and emotional. It has something to say, and it’s either a nice sequel to Black Widow and Falcon & Winter Soldier OR an introduction to some of your new favorite MCU characters - you choose. I’m very happy with it!

#StarTrek First Contact does a great job of making you wait to see the Borg invading the Enterprise. There are 3-4 scenes on the ship about the Borg before you even see them - when Picard mounts his first counteroffensive. Ratchets the tension and has a big payoff.

It could always be a sequel to "The Squire of Gothos" from Trelane's point of view.
