Star Trek has been one of the most popular sci-fi franchises in the world for decades, and with the success of the 2009 blockbuster reboot, it was only natural that we got a few follow-ups to the Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto-led movies.
Star Trek Beyond, the first movie in the Kelvin timeline, does raise some questions though. Like what happened to Carol Marcus? What happened to the life-saving superblood from Star Trek Into Darkness? What happened to beaming bombs onto people’s ships? Why does Kirk think a desk job will help him in the way of excitement? Did anyone ever care about Spock and Uhura’s relationship? How is Jaylah managing to hide that ship from Krall, who’s literally the one who crashed it there? Why do all these movies have bad guys from a different time?
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to Star Trek Beyond! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

His most popular video on his channel has 3.3 million views at the time of writing this comment (I’m not including the jack black video at 12m because he doesn’t make that sorta content anymore) and his most recent one 700k. The most popular pitch meeting video (that I could find) was at 4.4 million views and the most recent one at around 950k. 2. Even if they were around the same amount of views, not taking care of the Pitch Meeting series would be essentially cutting your salary in half, but in this case where the views outnumber the ones on his main channel he’d be cutting his income by 65%.

[@PrinceAzyreon]

Yeah, this movie had a lot of developments from previous movies that were just forgotten about for the sake of tension

[@ringringbananarchy]

Also for the fact that almost every Star Trek fan hated those things. I don't know what JJ was thinking. The Super Blood, the Transwarp beaming, the beaming through shields. He basically completely destroyed the reason to even have starships. He created literal immortality and the ability to go anywhere at any time without ships. This movie rightly ignored all that stupidity.

[@Mrdardas99]

To be fair, the last movie had Super resurrecting Blood, Transporters that can beam across star systems as normal technology, Transporters that can easily punch through shields to plant bombs inside ships, and more!

[@pvshka]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the torpedoes were beamed FROM Enterprise, whose shields were down, BY the admiral.

[@3faltigeralexandro]

The movie established a lot of stupidity on its own (like the super-effective space bees - I wonder if they are going to use them in the next movie) and the fact that the Founders are no longer anything special - anyone can be a shapechanger, according to Star Trek Beyond. ;)

And then, at the last minute, we revealed that he was actually a different villain called Khan, who had a completely different motivation for being evil, completely invalidating all the build-up we did?" Producer Guy: "Yeah, fans sure hated that reveal." Screenwriter Guy: "...." Screenwriter Guy: "I want to do it again!" Producer Guy: "What?" Screenwriter Guy: "YeahYeahYeah, I want to do exactly the same thing again, except this time its a Starfleet captain that hasn't been mentioned up to this point in the movie, who is cosplaying as an alien for some reason." Producer Guy: "Wow, that *is* exactly like the last movie we did." Screenwriter Guy: "Cool, huh?" Producer Guy: "I don't know...people are still very angry about the last movie.
