Star Trek is one of the last franchises I think would benefit from an R-rating. Just... why?

The rating system is largely irrelevant.

Take TNG Season 1 for example, the final episode contains a scene that would get it rated R, or at least TV-MA

Well it wasn't rated R or TV-MA, so you're wrong there

Itll probably be the best Star Trek movie yet.

Also I dont expect it to be over the top R. Hes not directing it, from what I hear. Hes only writing / producing it at most. And I dont think another director would cross the boundaries that Tarantino usually does in his own directing. So I wouldnt worry

No, that proves my point - that the rating is meaningless.

I'd only be wrong if it WAS rated TV-MA/R

If you're talking about the monster inside the dude in the episode "Conspiracy", first of all, that episode wasn't the last episode of season 1, it was the second last, and second of all, if you think that scene should merit a TV-MA rating, you're a bit delusional.

I don't doubt Quentin Tarantino COULD write a decent Star Trek movie, but the fact that this is being touted as R-rated is concerning. I don't see Star Trek as something like Deadpool, where an R-rating could make it better. Plus I'm not sure Tarantino's style would work for a Star Trek movie.

Trek doesn't need more action, it needs better writing and more discovery and NO not that abomination show Discovery. Hopefully the Picard show can salvage this resurgence. My favorite by far was DS9 followed by TNG. Its not all lens flares, crap writing, and pew pew pew, that's the problem.

So just like the J.J. Abrams directed 'reboot' trilogy I can forget all about this one too? Good to know.

I don't care if it's R or not. It's thankfully not Abrams. And Quentin and Star Trek may be a beautiful pairing.

I think he means the exploding admiral head at the end of Conspiracy. That was actually pretty risky for the time it aired, though you also had Friday the 13th the Series going on a year or two later and that was full of stuff I was shocked got on the air back then.

That's what happens when you let filthy amoral Canadians make your TV shows. It didn't even have anything to DO with Friday the 13th!

I did like it at the time.

It hasn't aged particularly well, though.

No, that's true. Especially the 2nd episode's flying guillotine lol.

I can still watch it for the main cast's chemistry though, that's worth it. Then you have those really great episodes like the killer radio at the asylum or the compact that makes people fall under your mind control shenaneghans (trash compactor!)

QT is terrible. Any who is asking for this much Trek? I liked TOS, TNG, and DNS, but do we really need three new series and movies every other year?

Mickey died, that was messed up. That coin was in a later episode with Johnny too I believe. I like the times they didn't end up getting the artifact, makes it a bit more realistic.
