Stop remaking things. It's to go boldly for fucks sake.
To safely go where others have gone before us!
Star Trek’s problems started when they started doing prequels.
Enterprise is actually good, and I’m glad they made it but at the same time it killed the franchise’s golden age.
“To go boldly” is a remake of “to boldly go”
Well.. Shit.
Up and at them.
lol got them
For any Trek fans I can suggest some science fiction writers who strongly influenced the original series.
Poul Anderson's 'The War Of The Wingmen' features a smarter version of Harry Mudd; a space trader trapped on a planet ruled by intelligent, winged tigers.
Roger Zelazny's 'Lord Of Light' has a long lost Earth colony ruled by the original starship's crew. They've used their advanced tech to turn themselves into the Hindu pantheon [except for a renegade Christian with an army of zombies]. One rebel used Buddhism to start a war...
Lord of Light is pretty neat. He wrote it so it could be read as either a scifi story or a fantasy story.
“The fit hit the Shan” was one of the few times I laughed out loud reading a book.
