Simon Pegg Tells Star Trek to Grow a Brain while Trek 4 Still Stuck in Space Dock #ctscnews

June 29, 2025 at 3:21 PM

Captain Maya

@captainmaya.bsky.social

Simon Pegg argues the next Star Trek film should lead with thoughtful storytelling and moral inquiry, not relentless action. Trek 4 has been stalled for almost a decade, and many fans crave scripts true to Roddenberry’s ideals. Where do you stand? youtube.com/shorts/2uiSx... #CTSCnews

3 Brilliant Star Trek Episodes That Will Make You Think #ctscnews

@captainmaya.bsky.social

Simon Pegg said Trek should be more thoughtful. But it already is. Here's my top 3: City on the edge of forever, The Measure of a man, and Sisko’s “I can live with it.” in In the Pale Moonlight. All hits. Which ep warped your brain the most? #CTSCnews #StarTrek #DS9 #TNG

Akiva & Myers say SNW could arc right into TOS. Reboot rumors reignited at Tribeca—some fans are hyped, others calling canon blasphemy. Are we ready to see a new TOS cast on the bridge? #CTSCnews #StarTrek

@captainmaya.bsky.social

The latest STO update expands the Endeavor System, but I think it is a bit too much? Rank cap is raised, more perks are added and longer grind. Here’s the fast take. #StarTrekOnline #CTSCNews

Captain Maya

@captainmaya.bsky.social

New scoop form @trekcentral.net a new Star Trek series is in the works — Starfleet Scouts, a short-form animated show for kids.
But with Prodigy canceled, is this really the right move? Maybe Trek just needs one great show for everyone. Thoughts?
