Nicholas Meyer blocked out memos he received from Gene Roddenberry during filming of Star Trek II

In the Star Trek series, Nicholas Meyer was selected as director for the second film, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. Despite the movie’s ultimate success, it wasn’t without its challenges. Although it’s now widely recognized as one of the best films in the franchise, Star Trek II encountered obstacles. One such obstacle was Gene Roddenberry, who wasn’t fond of the film’s storyline. In fact, he is said to have intentionally tried to sabotage the movie’s plot, particularly stirring up fans about the death of Spock. [Adapted from Slashfilm]

John Billingsley shares a different viewpoint on Star Trek: Enterprise’s series finale

The final episode of Star Trek: Enterprise titled “These Are the Voyages…” is generally considered the least favored among all deliberate Star Trek finales. I refer to it as deliberate because Star Trek: The Original Series concluded with an episode called “Turnabout Intruder,” which wasn’t originally intended as a series finale. Since Enterprise ended in 2005, this finale has been criticized heavily, and many Star Trek enthusiasts choose not to watch it. This response is understandable; if you don’t enjoy the episode, then you won’t enjoy it. However, what puzzles many viewers is why the producers decided to end the series on such a note.
