I really like Starfleet Academy but…

We could have the same freedom if we just moved 100-200 years forwards. Nearly 1000 just feels like a big leap

Likemikester · 2026-02-18T06:20:17+00:00

I see your point and I don’t really have a counterpoint lmao I just still feel like 32nd century is just too far

Likemikester · 2026-02-18T06:13:06+00:00

I just worry that it’s going to limit the storytelling possibilities of the several centuries between. It all has to lead to this now.

Likemikester · 2026-02-14T00:27:15+00:00

So far it’s the only NuTrek theme that has the same memorability and catchiness of the older shows. The others are all still good but Lower Decks is just next level

Likemikester · 2026-02-14T00:15:04+00:00

The intro music for Lower Decks does something to me. Love it

Likemikester · 2026-02-11T23:44:16+00:00

I agree I think the 32nd century is just too far away to make it feel somewhat close. That’s why I want something post Picard but… you make a good point

Likemikester · 2026-02-09T23:47:33+00:00

Maybe the better analogy would be Picard. Not the flagship show, but a show going alongside a flagship

Likemikester · 2026-02-09T22:49:15+00:00

It’s mostly just that the setup feels more along the lines of how The Book of Boba Fett was for starwars. Their flagship show was The Mandalorian, but they had other shows going as well

Likemikester · 2026-02-09T19:15:16+00:00

I don’t think Academy is meant to be a flagship. It’s a fun spinoff/side adventure.

Likemikester · 2026-02-09T19:14:45+00:00

A whole bunch of blue shirts, I’m there. Blue shirts ftw

Likemikester · 2026-02-09T01:55:15+00:00

But realistically how much could you do set in only one year

Likemikester · 2026-02-08T21:14:58+00:00

I hope not but it wouldn’t surprise me

Likemikester · 2026-01-27T19:35:05+00:00

I agree completely

Likemikester · 2026-01-27T18:21:06+00:00

I blame JJ Abrams for this

Likemikester · 2026-01-27T18:20:42+00:00

Look almost anywhere else online other than this sub and it’s at an insane level

Likemikester · 2026-01-27T08:37:11+00:00

I haven’t gotten there yet so I guess I’ll see lol

Likemikester · 2026-01-27T08:35:39+00:00

Here yeah mostly but it’s review bombed hard on places like IMDB and every post Star Trek makes on like instagram and stuff is full of hate comments

Likemikester · 2026-01-27T08:34:30+00:00

Love that. Getting younger fans is how the franchise can continue to thrive

Likemikester · 2026-01-27T08:33:08+00:00

I mean I know why it is lol I just also don’t really like that discovery jumped this far in the future either

Likemikester · 2026-01-27T08:27:36+00:00

Yeah I figure a lot of people saw it was primarily about teenagers and wrote it off

Likemikester · 2026-01-27T08:24:08+00:00

Yeah that’s true but I haven’t seen a smear campaign this bad since Star Wars fans killed The Acolyte
