Yeah. In STID, Kronos is about a minute from Earth, and Starfleet has two ships, one of them a secret one no-one knows about because it was built behind Jupiter. It's ... problematic.
I saw at least one instance.
Pegg updates on script
- Thread starter F. King Daniel
- Start date
He's Superman.
Anything specific that makes you worried?
In my opinion, Lin has a number of strengths to bring to the next film, though I can understand the concerns. However, Lin did not direct all of the F&F movies. He started with Tokyo Drift, then the next, Fast 5 and Furious 6. Just for reference and hopefully to help identify what is concerning
He was hired to direct films about fast cars, not Citizen Kane.
Until he *crunch* wasn't.
Uhm... No. Superman is Superman and Batman is Batman. Even the Hulk is called the Hulk. But in "Die Hard", the former Stasi man Hans Gruber is named "Jack" in the german dubbing. I guess tptb where a little concerned how the german audience would take a movie with german terrorists...
Übermensch would have unpleasant connotations in this country.
Same here- it'd be nice to see a bit of going where no bugger has gone before, etc.
Coy posts like this only mention there is a problem, but don't provide a complete response to substantiate what that problem actually is for people who might like to know - or maybe need to know. So let's see if I get it right:
You are possibly referring to the Nietzsche extension via Hitler and his program to eliminate all but the Nazi "superior race" (an ignorant concept saturated with historical, scientific, and genetic irony with a heavy dose of karma). And so Übermensch, I assume, dredges up painful connotations of the master race and it's policies of extermination. That is obviously going to get a sensitive response in Germany.
But what gives me doubt about opposition to the term, however, is a quote of the definition of 'Übermensch.'
Hitler was the antithesis of someone who would not dogmatically force his perspective on others. He certainly did force his perspective on others, so he and his policies by extension don't really fit the meaning of 'Übermensch.'
I think it depends on who you ask.The term is not immediately negative in all circles, given that Nietzsche conceived of the term in modern usage.
The term certainly is appropriate for the Superman character and is actually apart of the origin of the character.
Pegg seems to be kind of sure Idris Elba is in.

Tell me about it. After watching the Sound of Music, I was afraid that Decker and Ilia were going to break out into a song about young love.
I'd laugh my arse off if he was Harry Mudd. Just for the cross-casting lulz.
Yup.
Definitely hoping they go in a different direction, but will still be there opening night. I'm a sucker for Star Trek.
