Star Trek is nearly 50 years old now and it’s been around for so long because I think it offers hope for us as a species. The thing people have always been attracted to (with Star Trek) is the idea that we might live beyond this age of conflict and uncertainty. And it’s not only that, but it’s also the ability to work together and live in a world where everyone is accepted no matter who you are.
The original series with Gene Roddenberry was incredibly progressive. It started barely 20 years after the end of World War II, with a Japanese officer aboard the Enterprise, a black woman in charge of an entire division, and a Russian on board—albeit in subordinate roles, but it was an incredibly progressive move. It offered this utopian idea of cooperation and that’s always going to be something to strive toward until we actually achieve it. In that respect, Star Trek will never go out of fashion.

For Eleanor!
That Spock one is damn nice, I must say. I love the Sulu, of course, although he looks like someone interrupted him in the middle of something intense and he’s confused.
Final trailer
LOTS of new footage!
OMG! ”I believe in you, Jim.”
Break my heart to shreds. Because I swear to god they’re going to kill Pike, dammit.
I won’t lie, this is the first of the trailers to actually instill a real reaction in me of any kind. I’m a little scared. A little excited. I. Fuck.
Dear diary, one day I will hold a print sale when I am not in dire financial crisis. I’m still paying off one million medical bills, and it makes every month a struggle, so today is not that day. Le sigh.
