On Thursday, the Herald Sun announced that the character Hikaru Sulu will be revealed to be gay in Star Trek Beyond, which hits theaters July 22. It was welcome news for many who have criticized the otherwise progressive franchise's lack of LGBT representation since the initial show went on the air in 1966.
But one person disappointed with the news is the person it was perhaps most aimed to please, or at least to honor.
