and i'm not a brainless moron who constantly complains about how trek is being milked out by paramount as i see the difficult implication of a money-obsessed industries that has to keep itself going ... i'm fine with that (!) but spiting in the face of countless millions of trek-fans (and i for my part am sure that most "already-trek" fans will hate this crap) will not get them anywhere near the big PLUS they're trying to cash with it ... it looks like freakin oc:california in space, only that i'll be expecting johnny cho to get up any moment tell chris pine and the rest of the crew to f**k off and the get some dope from sickbay (which bones of course is keeping only for medical purposes) ... eversince they went with trek for the "new and trendy" mainstream thing, things started to get screwed |
Re: Star Trek XI - Official Trailer 2 release! Um...Medhiv, you do know that most of this movie takes place in an alternate timeline right? |

Re: Star Trek XI - Official Trailer 2 release! There's no way in hell I'll pay money to see this movie. Ugly ship, dumb 'prequel' plot, teen angst meets Star Trek... I'm not interested. |

Re: Star Trek XI - Official Trailer 2 release! I don't think the mechanics behind time travel is the issue with people, but the fact the mechanics are used as a central part of the story. It's something the last few trek series are guilty off, an alternate universe/timeline episode allowed writers to do a lot of off-the-wall stuff such as blowing up the main ship/killing main characters. I think many people just wanted a canonical story for the movie and are now disappointing to found out it's another "alternative" story rather than actual history of the trek we know. That said, trekkies are quick to complain. If it's not the nacelles being 5 centimeters too long it's the fact Kirk is not played by "that old guy". Hell, some people are even complaining the new set is not reminiscent enough of the ol embedded crt/peper mache props of old. No, what is going to kill trek would not be this reimagination but the inability to change with the times. You think the old battlestar galactica would have had a chance? :lol: |

Re: Star Trek XI - Official Trailer 2 release! Well, its not an alternate universe till like the Kelvin is destroyed(2330's?)...which sets things in motion. Remember what Wolf 359 did for Starfleet? They developed ships that would have been built only during and after the Dominion war and not years before(Intrepid) aswell as some that probably would never exist until the 25th century(Defiant, Sovvie). That is what happens here. All of those Klingon and Federation ships that fall to the Narada causes the Constitution class and therefore the Enterprise to be built years before(2350's) it should have been. Which also explains the TMP improvments that we see. We already know that the original 1701 Enterprise was built on Earth(the plaque says so) but, in this situation it would be Iowa and not San Fran. due to that San Fransisco would be the first target or one of the first. Building it in Iowa only helps the secrecy of the project because then very few would know about it. Makes since to me. |
Re: Star Trek XI - Official Trailer 2 release! This totally screws everything over IMO. If Kirk never served aboard the Lexington, then why does it state such in TOS? I really think sci-fi shows should stay away from time travel if they can't get it right. |
