never boring. Although I doubt they expected me to laugh at some of the ridiculous action sequences.

Yeah they do go overboard sometimes with that, great to watch though

***Chris*** · 03-02-2021, 08:39 PM

So overboard it's pretty unbelievable, but as you say, fun to watch.

Nice set! He doesn't look very confident in most of those.

**crazy_diamond** · 11-05-2021, 01:33 PM

No he doesn't

**Meliana** · 11-06-2021, 11:22 PM

He does great reaction shots, too.

**crazy_diamond** · 11-07-2021, 03:40 AM

he does

***Chris*** · 11-07-2021, 02:08 PM

he has a very expressive face.

**crazy_diamond** · 11-08-2021, 03:37 AM

he has, still think it was wrong casting though

***Chris*** · 11-08-2021, 09:55 AM

I've come to accept him in the role, but agree with you the casting wasn't very true to the original.

I didn't like it at first, but I got used to it. Simon bringing his writing into Star Trek, was also a great addition.

he's obviously a fan, and acting in it gave him additional incentive to do a good job.

A nice shout out to his Star Trek fans

Quote:

Simon Pegg has become a franchise master in recent years, having appeared in the likes of “Star Trek,” “Star Wars,” “Mission: Impossible” and “Doctor Who.” During a recent appearance on SiriusXM’s “Jim and Sam” radio show (via Mediaite), Pegg was asked what franchise has “the hardest fans to please.” It didn’t take long for the actor to deliver his answer: “Star Wars.”

Quote:

For Pegg, “Star Trek” fandom is the exact opposite of “Star Wars” fandom. “I find the ‘Star Trek’ fans have always been very, very inclusive, you know, ‘Star Trek’s’ about diversity. It has been since 1966, it always was,” the actor said.

“There’s no sort of like, ‘Oh, you’re suddenly being woke,’” Pegg added. “No ‘Star Trek’ was woke from the beginning, you know? … This is massively progressive. ‘Star Wars’ suddenly there’s, there’s a little bit more diversity and everyone’s kicking off about it. And it’s, it’s really sad.'”
