Das hier ist wahrscheinlich die widersprüchlichste Filmreihe der Popkultur. Kein anderes Franchise schwankt so radikal zwischen philosophischer Science-Fiction, politischer Allegorie, Alterswerk, Blockbuster-Spektakel und gelegentlichem völligen Wahnsinn. Die dreizehn Kinofilme erzählen nicht nur von der Zukunft der Menschheit. Sie erzählen von Hollywood, vom Kalten Krieg, vom Ende des Kalten Krieges, vom Aufstieg der Nerdkultur und von einer Filmindustrie, die vergessen hat, warum Menschen wie ich „Star Trek“ ursprünglich so sehr geliebt haben. (NUR im TV auf ZDFneo!)

@kcarr2015 True - but in that case, as in the case of #BrockPeters, the character is intended to be shown as racist - or at the very least, highly prejudiced. Vulcans are often shown as being hypocrites, espousing logic and other philosophies while frequently just as governed by emotions and pettiness as any human. One thing I think Enterprise did very well was flesh out the inconsistencies in Vulcan culture - both demonstrating the tremendous diversity of thought within Vulcan society and the fact that many Vulcans are just total dickheads 😂🖖
