    The next Star Trek movie will involve Tarantino

    Quentin Tarantino’s ‘Star Trek’ Will Be R-Rated: ‘The Revenant’s Mark L. Smith Frontrunner Scribe:

    After Deadline this week revealed that Quentin Tarantino pitched a Star Trek film to JJ Abrams and Paramount, the whole thing is moving at warp speed. Tarantino met for hours in a writers room with Mark L. Smith, Lindsey Beer, and Drew Pearce. They kicked around ideas and one of them will get the job. I’m hearing the frontrunner is Smith, who wrote The Revenant. The film will most certainly go where no Star Trek has gone before: Tarantino has required it to be R rated, and Paramount and Abrams agreed to that condition.

    Interesting. Sounds like Star Trek with gore. Eh. But, if Selma Hayek is in it than I might buy a ticket.

    I heard Tarantino say in an interview that he had always wanted to do Star Trek, but he understood he wouldn't be able to. He's a super fan.

    And if you're not a QT fan, remember: the franchise survived director William Shatner.

    I don’t have a big dog in this but I’d like Tarantino’s version to be non-canon. Do it Quentin. Make the best Star Trek film ever. But make it a standalone. I just don’t see his film ever fitting in the series.

    There's no such thing as a non-canon Star Trek project. It's the best thing about the Star Trek universe. It's canonical that there are an infinite number of dimensions.

    JJ Abrams' trek is in a separate universe from TNG etc.

    Not even Star Trek can do that.

    No, but the Reds signed Ohtani.

    Not a Tarantino fan. Never have been. He can't make a film without excessive gore IMO. But to each his own.

    Will the third act aka the last 2 hours of the movie be the crew slowly shooting each other to death?

    Pulp Fiction had just the right amount of gore

    What's the right amount? When only half the cast is left lying dismembered and bloodied? LOL
