Actually "Wheaton is a massive asshole to people and the Star Trek actors generally considered to be massive assholes are actually much nicer than him" is a recurring theme in this thread.

I saw this douche at Gencon a few years ago, probably the same year as the woman. Passed right by him in the vendor hall. I think I mentioned to my buddy, "Huh, I think that was that Wil Wheaton guy back there." He just shrugged. Nothing further was said. That's how little it meant.
Keep in mind this was before he really started sperging out, when his stock would have been its highest.
I'm going straight to Airplane II if I ever meet him.

I don't know, but if there's one thing I know for sure, it's that I believe Tim Bogart and that Wil Wheaton is a rapist.

That's pretty much what you'd expect a rapist like Wil to say.

the guy who played the worst character in Star Trek said:

Wil needs the money and doesn't have other things to do. also the guy who played Worf has been pitching a Worf-centric show to anyone who will listen for years, but at least he played Worf. and got invited to dinner:

A Worf-centric show would be terrible, he was always best as the straight man when everything around him went to shit or got silly. Star Trek in that 80s-90s sense we had wouldn't work today anymore, because the current Fad in SciFi is to be Grimdark and have a whole bunch of random action, and CG thrown in while also being somewhat more Sci-centric. If you haven't seen TNG and DS9 in a while, revisit it, especially if you are used to more modern SciFi. A lot of these episodes is actually standing around and doing a lot of talking and there's a lot of positive ideals without getting too political, which I think was a big part of their charm and success. I don't think modern tv-people get that.

That sperging out aside, nobody wants to see Ensign Soyboy again. I like the running gag that his departure from the show was basically him being kidnapped by a trans-dimensional child molestor and nobody, even his own mother, really caring about it much.

TNG had a tendency to get very lecture-y, with a sense that the writers were using the characters to stop just barely shy of staring straight into the camera and lecture the audience. (And they didn't always stop shy of it.) DS9 did manage to be more nuanced and subtle overall, tackling moral questions TNG would have warped away from at maximum speed. And I think a Worf-centric series could kinda work? But the whole problem with modern Trek is that they've tried to make it "centric" instead of an ensemble cast, with Discovery being shit in large part due to being the Mary Sue's vehicle and everyone else is just along for the ride. Rather what would work is a series with Worf more prominent, in a First Officer situation or something.
Actually tying this back to Wee Willy Wheaton, there's a joke in The Purple Rose of Cairo that highlights a certain truth of acting, that every actor either secretly (or not-so-secretly) thinks the entire production is about their character. One of the biggest examples is one of the actresses from Gilligan's Island who said she was pitched and accepted the show (because she actually bought this and continued to think it through a fair bit of production) that the show was about her character, even though it was named Gilligan's Island. Obviously Michael Dorn has a little of this going on, but at least in his case it's understandable... Worf was the only character to be regular main cast on two different series and has stayed one of the most popular Star Trek characters in the ongoing stuff. But I have the feeling that for all his skin-deep hatred of the Wesley character, Wee Willy still thinks TNG was about him, especially in those early seasons, and that it's just those damn nerds that he hates so much that couldn't see his greatness. He's got a swelled head after years of building his brand with those nerds he despises, and now thinks that if he could just claw his way back onto Star Trek he'd finally be acknowledged as the main character.

He should. I wouldn't want a selfie with him, but if I ever ran into him, I would TOTALLY film myself (or get someone else to film me) telling him to "Shut up Wesley."

Oh, they could bring back the character. They just need to replace the actor. Imagine Wesley Crusher, now played by the biggest Chad in Hollywood. A 7 foot tall muscle man with a hairy chest who looks like 1980s Arnold Schwarzenegger with a 5 o'clock shadow and has a voice like Barry white. Every time he appears on screen he always a cigar in his mouth and a hot alien babe on each arm.
