Comment on Alex Kurtzman Gives Live-Action Comedy Update, Says Star Trek Can “Broaden”
Dagwood222@lemm.ee 3 days agoI been saying this for a while.
Drop all the ‘canon’ lore. No more Klingons, Romulans, Vulcans, or Borg. In fact, no six foot tall, five fingered aliens. Aliens will look completely unlike humans.
Wipe all memory and start 100% fresh.

If it was written fiction then I would agree, but for the screen I still prefer human actors in makeup over full CGI.

Don’t discount practical effects. Watch “The Thing” or “American Werewolf in London” if you don’t believe me.

You forget the option of puppetry! The best aliens have always been puppets.

If you are unfamiliar with him, look up a writer named Poul Anderson. He specialized in creating ‘strange new worlds’ and populated them with all sorts of great characters. “War Of The Wingmen” is a good novel to start with.
