Day 21 of the government shutdown.
Paramount has shelved, probably permanently, all plans for a fourth Star Trek movie with the AOS cast. On the one hand, I'm bummed because I love the AOS cast, and because this means I will never again see Bones in that skintight wetsuit, dripping wet and chest heaving manfully. On the other, it also means I won't have to suffer through a time-travel storyline in which we are treated to two hours of Jim Kirk's tiresome Daddy issues and/or an encounter with Bones' ex-wife in which they snipe at each other in what is supposed to be biting, comical riposte, nor will I have to endure the horror of that arrogant, skeezy manchild, Quentin Tarantino, turning him into a profanity-spewing space racist just for the giddy shock value. If it has to go out, I'm glad it went out on the grace note and love letter to the original series that was Beyond.
