It really feels like they watched Star Trek Renegades and were like "YES".

I echo what you said elsewhere, if I get a goofy action movie (or better) then I won't be disappointed and it will be nice to see the Discovery-era one last time.

the Discovery-era

Well, this seems poised to be set sometime after "The Undiscovered Country," which is actually one of the more interesting aspects for me.

I would love that! Give the lost part of the Monster Maroon era (mid 2290s-2340s) some love.

The weird thing is April from SNW should canonically still be alive due to TAS:”Counter-clockwise Incident”.

[–] ValueSubtracted@startrek.website 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The presence of a young Rachel Garrett seems to suggest it (she was likely born around 2300, so the movie could take place around 2330).

I don't know if we'll see any actual maroons, though - I think they're operating outside of the Federation.

I just realized another thing about April - assuming humans live 120 years on average in the Trek universe and April got turned roughly 20 in Counter/Clock, an elderly April could still be alive in the 2360s or 70s.

I hope we get a de-aged Shatner appearance (I don't actually hope that... I think)

quick get Sam Witwer on the phone

What's this, what's this? There's Trek alum everywhere!

A much hyped fanfilm from the post Enterprise/pre-Disco days where fan films were all we had to keep us going. "Renegades" had a good amount of hype around it because it had a real budget and the cast they managed to get. Unfortunately money can't buy taste and the actual script is pretty bad.

Hey thanks, it's all new to me. I know what I'm watching this weekend.
