Before the new Star Trek movie, Section 31, comes out – a film that’s already proving quite controversial – it’s worth remembering that Star Trek has always aimed to reflect the issues of its time. However, the meaning of those reflections often becomes clearer with hindsight. This is especially true for Star Trek: Picard Season 1, which dealt with artificial intelligence facing prejudice from both the good guys and the bad. While some viewers saw this as a commentary on the current excitement around AI technology, that wasn’t the intended message.
Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale, set in the dystopian country of Gilead—a reimagining of North America where women are treated as property whose sole purpose is to bear children—was a deeply disturbing read.

The novel’s themes of resistance echoed real-world protests seen on the news, especially at a time when reproductive rights, like those established by Roe v. Wade in 1973, were facing serious challenges.

Having served in the Iraq War and having some familiarity with the Call of Duty games, I worry the upcoming movie will be a typical action film that romanticizes war and heroically portrays its survivors. My experience with the games actually came during my deployment to Iraq – a fellow soldier had an Xbox and TV in our living quarters, and many of us, including those who had seen combat, would unwind by playing. Listening to people play, it became clear that the game’s only real link to actual warfare was the chatter during gameplay.
In a recent, lengthy interview with The Times, McKellen discussed a wide range of topics. The conversation inevitably turned to The Hunt for Gollum, and when it did, McKellen stated firmly, “I won’t let anyone else play Gandalf.” He then went on to share more details about the film.
