Everyone talks about Star Trek again. Unfortunately, they talk about it in the context of the death of the franchise.
If you are looking to blame his death on someone, you should probably put him on Alex Kurtzman. He has been in charge of franchise since 2009 Star Trek. He is also the producer of the new publication of Paramount + Star Trek: Section 31A film directly at the exit so bad that 58% of Star Trek fans who responded to our survey voted to demand that Paramount remove the internet film.
So what happened? What has Alex Kurtzman has to say by himself? His answer, in a word, is as follows: Star Trek is a safe space, so it is normal to make a terrible film.
Is my summary an exaggeration? Here is the exact quotation of his interview with Trekmovie, in which they asked him what he would say to fans worrying about section 31.
“I think you tend to find Star Trek because you somehow feel as if you are not living, right?” And Star Trek becomes a safe place that tells you that it is normal to be different. It’s normal to be unsuitable. And it’s a film about unsuitable, right?
After this horrible quote, he embarked on a dismissed word salad on “Protecting Our Freedom”, then he sank even lower. He tried to argue that the best way to protect the dream of Gene Roddenberry from a brilliant future is to make films on horrible people who make horrible things.
Here is Kurtzman:
“So, in the end, I have the impression that what we say is that for Starfleet and this beautiful vision that Roddenberry had of this optimistic utopia, so that this vision exists, so that light exists, you need people who operate in the shadows. And it’s a yin and a yang. You cannot have one without the other.
In the head of Alex Kurtzman, there is nothing like a brilliant and happy future for humanity, because you can only have one if it is balanced by something horrible. In Star Trek by Alex Kurtzman, Gene Roddenberry’s dream cannot exist.
He then tried paper on his failures by wrapping in the LGBTQ +iconography, saying of his terrible film, “And in this way, I think it’s just another color of the Arc-en- Star Trek sky. “
In my review 0 star of Star Trek: Section 31, I asked if it was possible that a film was fundamentally bad. Now Star Trek fans have an answer. If you are looking for evil, look no further than Alex Kurtzman.
