"Things have started to feel a little ... episodic," acknowledges the commander of the USS Enterprise in his famous captain's log, three long years into a five-year 23rd century gig. That line, cheeky and knowing, comes early in "Star Trek Beyond." It's the 13th feature film pulled from the hallowed Gene Roddenberry TV series, the Cold War-era phenomenon that believed in ideas and the democratic ideal, as opposed to its cultural bookend, the vastly more influential "Star Wars" universe, which from its inception was driven by merchandise and nostalgia. I generalize, of course, and millions can dwell in both worlds and live a full, happy life.
