    Im honestly really excited for this, it would really show a side of Trek we haven't seen before. Besides, Tarantino is an excellent director, so it's pretty much quaranteed to be good.

    I disagree, initially. I'm willing to give him a shot. I appreciate his work for the most part, yet I don't accept that Star Trek is in his wheelhouse.

    He seems more like he would fit in better with the Star Wars universe. Still, I am willing to give the guy the benefit of the doubt.

    Took the words out of my mouth. I think a lot of us like the increase in the action from recent films, keeps stuff exciting, but don't want it to become nothing but hardcore action sequences.

    I don't mind if it's R-rated, and that doesn't mean it devolves into an action fest. There have been a few times Trek would have benefited from an R-rating, and some were plenty disturbing on their own so this R-rating could just be for safety. But this is Tarantino, so, I'm just curious about what kind of movie we're going to see in general.

    Not a fan of most of the things he's directed, and not sure what to think of him directing a Star Trek film, honestly. There's been several great directors for Star Trek films, and a few not so great ones. I'm leaning that he may end in the latter of those, but if the rumor is true then I guess only time will tell. Not going to hold my breath. I suppose as long as he sticks to what Trek is and not something closer to his other films, it may be okay.

    I can honestly say I loathe all of his films so I dread to think what he will do to my beloved Trek. If he leaves the core of what Trek is alone then it might be OK, but it definitely should not be r-rated.

    I was hesitant when I heard that Quentin Tarantino would be directing the new Star Trek but I recalled when he directed a CSI triple episode (might have been a double) and he pulled it off very well so I say let him have a shot.

    Well, it would be quite interesting if there was a "stand-alone" movie (like in ENT Season 4) set entirely in the Mirror Universe. That would be a good justification for the R-Rated thing.

    If Patrick Stewart is interested in reprising Jean-Luc Picard in an R-rated Star Trek, I'll definitely be interested in the new movie!
