Whatever, as long as he doesn't touch the script. I've had enough of cool guy, talky guy, violent guy etc.
So half the movie will be one of those shuttle Bottle episodes?
Just Picard and Wesley chilling in a shuttle ride somewhere chatting about stuff.

.....bah.
I get that directors have their own style and I get that, but I would really like to see Tarantini truly branch out.
This is why I disliked Inglorious Basterds the first time I saw it, I was expecting him to do something different considering it was a WW2 movie. Seeing the 70s style film making, references to movies, and general tone was kind of annoying.
That's not to say it isn't good, cuz it always is, but I also find it a bit stale.

Pulp Fiction in space? I'll take it.
I'll take that too.
Basically, I'll take anything other than what they're doing and I'll take anything QT wants to do with it.

I never saw a Tarantino movie I didn't love.
I'd happily watch him doing an R-rated Friendship is Magic movie, to be honest. Bring it on.

Do they speak English in "what"?
Agreed. Arguably the reasons we even have Trek back on tv today
Klingon and Vulcan get into a fight that leads them into a Ferengi pawnshop. We know what happens next. Once the Klingon and the Vulcan are free, Klingon advises the Vulcan that they're "cool" but his DS9 rights have been revoked. The Vulcan showing curiosity for the fate of the Ferengi butt raper got in response from the Klingon, "I'm going to send a commincae to a team of tlhIngan and they will do their best to facilitate a most painful death with a pair of bat'leth and a mek'leth. 'Are you able to comprehend what I am saying, Ferengi? Our business has not nearly come to a conclusion! I'm going to take it back to the days of Kahless on your ass.'"
hey dad, i'm in jail. i like it here. i'm in jail.

"ah no I just shot Alexander in the face."
"Good thing you had that phaser on kill. Total disentergration."
*Shuttle flight continues with a more upbeat tone since Alexander is dead [accidentally]*
Nah, it needs to be a racial slur or Tarantino won't be happy with it.
Example: Does this look like a dead spoonhead storage?

Subtlety isn't a thing Tarantino is good for. Nor is interactions between good, rounded characters. It all becomes a frat level conversation
The card scene in Basterds was poetry.
Star Trek has been stale for awhile. I say let Tarantino go to town.
I could see him taking on the seedy nature of this universe in direct contrast to the glossy outwards facade of the Federation.
It's be great to let him go to town but pulp fiction ain't the town I'd want him to go.
My name is Lt. Aldo Raine and I'm putting together a special team, and I need me eight soldiers. Eight Federation soldiers. Now, y'all might've heard rumors about the armada happening soon. Well, we'll be leaving a little earlier. We're gonna be dropped into Ferenginar, dressed as civilians. And once we're in enemy territory, as a bushwhackin' guerrilla army, we're gonna be doin' one thing and one thing only... killin' Ferengi.
Now, I don't know about y'all, but I sure as hell didn't come down from the goddamn Starfleet Academy, cross five thousand light years of space, fight my way through half of the Neutral Zone and jump out of a fuckin' transport shuttle to teach the Ferengi lessons in humanity. Ferengi ain't got no humanity. They're the foot soldiers of a Federation-hatin', mass murderin' maniac and they need to be dee-stroyed. That's why any and every son of a bitch we find sportin' those big ass Ferengi ears is gonna die.
Now, I'm the direct descendant of the mountain man Jim Bridger. That means I got a little Injun in me. And our battle plan will be that of an Apache resistance. We will be cruel to the Ferengi and through our cruelty they will know who we are. And they will find the evidence of our cruelty in the disemboweled, dismembered, and disfigured bodies of their brothers we leave behind us. And the Ferengi won't not be able to help themselves but to imagine the cruelty their brothers endured at our hands, and our boot heels, and the edge of our knives. And the Ferengi will be sickened by us, and the Ferengi will talk about us, and the Ferengi will fear us. And when the Ferengi closes their eyes at night and they're tortured by their subconscious for the evil they have done, it will be with thoughts of us they are tortured with. Sound good?
That's what I like to hear. But I got a word of warning for all you would-be warriors. When you join my command, you take on debit. A debit you owe me personally. Each and every man under my command owes me one hundred Ferengi scalps. And I want my scalps. And all y'all will git me one hundred Ferengi scalps, taken from the heads of one hundred dead Ferengi. Or you will die tryin'.
