Should Paramount just give up on Star Trek?
>>
>>217406761
Yes, because they have destroyed it beyond recognition and nothing can fix it. It's deader than Star Wars.
>>
>>217406761
yes. there are only 5 star trek stories anyway. do we really need 5000 episodes?

Is this a hard question?

The discrepancy is actually even worse now lol
>>
>>217406834
You can easily fix it. The good thing is literally no one is actually watching nu-trek, despite astroturfing channels like /trek/. No one will remember these shows, when people think of Star Trek they will always think of the 90s shows and TOS. All it would take is a short break and proper re-launch, but the odds of that happening aren't good.

Do people seriously think anything other than the original series and next gen are good?
After next gen, it just became le ebin space battles aimed at the lowest common denominator.

Star Wars is dead
Star Trek is dead
Indiana Jones is dead
Mad Max lives

I viewed their handling of Star Trek similar to the way Sony handled Ghostbusters.
Not in the quality of the output of the rebooted material, which was a bad, but in how they market the franchise.
Sony pretended that Ghostbusters was this massive phenomenon that has massive reverence with the general public and it wasn't just a franchise from the 80s with 1 good movie, 1 bad movie, and a cartoon. They even try to do a fucking Ghostbusters convention.
Paramount did something similar, they clearly tried to FORCE Star Trek into this hierarchy equal to of Star Wars in the minds of the general public. They had all these conventions, the merch, the forced flood of TV shows for kids and adults. They wanted to gaslight the general public into caring about Star Trek and to make them believe that it's not just a thing that they know about through cultural osmosis and isn't mostly for nerds.
The problem is that the general public doesn't give a shit about Star Trek like they also don't give that much of a shit about Ghostbusters. It's a thing they know and it's a thing they've heard of, but they aren't going to watch or get deeply invested in and it doesn't matter how much Paramount tries to pretend, it won't change
Star Trek is niche, it always has been and always will be and that's FINE. The more Paramount tries to appeal to the general public, the worse the franchise gets
