What Do You Want To See? Star Trek Beyond

I want to see some aliens from the Animated Series. If TPTB want Star Trek Beyond to be more like Guardians of the Galaxy, give me billion-strong armies of Skorr birdman soldiers, have the Enterprise sent to the Verdala asteroid to learn some ancient space knowledge from some magical bipedal cats, and if you want super-cool alien crewmen, look no further than Mr Arex.

The stuff they need is already there.

Yes. This would be cool!
Also, I think it would be interesting to feature more with the android (I'm guessing it was an android) that was on the bridge in STID. (The bald android with the modulated voice.)

Oh,,.....and more of the cute blonde officer that was seen briefly during Kirk's plea with Adm. Marcus. She is frakking hawt! :)
 
I'm clearly in the minority... I want to see something NEW. If there wasn't a single bit of fan service or references to things happening outside the immediate story, I'd be happy with that. Boldly go to some strange new world for Christ's sake, and stop looking backwards and/or sideways.

Yes, please.
 
I definitely want to see the Giacchino score back. I love it; it's energetic, dynamic, and powerful.

I second this, the Giacchino score has become one of those key elements of the new Trek series. I can't imagine a better theme for the Enterprise rising out of somewhere than that one.

Thirded, I hope he returns too, I've enjoyed his scores for these movies, the main theme somehow manages to evoke the 60's show somehow, it's very well done. I hope they retain the same pre-title sequence too. I hate it when they change the credits on a big franchise - Die Hard 4 is a perfect example of this.

Yeah, It's pretty great. Introduction, some buildup, then BOOM, Star Trek title card and Giacchino's epic theme.

I was unpleasantly surprised with what Christopher Nolan did with Interstellar. His Batman movies, and Inception, all had the same type of title card at the end of the film - black background, white text, same font, same letter spacing, all caps.

But then again, he also had a different director of photography, so Interstellar differed from his previous works in more ways than one.

I hated how they handled the opening of Nemesis too. They threw out the credits entirely, just kept the Title card and threw in a rushed piece of music that was just beginning to get good when it abruptly ended. It just felt so sloppy (like everything else in that movie, TBH).

I, too, would've loved to have heard a full on version of the opening track to Nemesis. For me, it was a toe tapper! :)

I never really noticed that too much I was't looking for it I guess but it's different franchises - so it gets a pass.

If JJ bins the traditional SW credits with the 3D yellow text I'll kill myself.
 
Not a fan of Giacchino. What I really don't want to hear is that repetitive, hyped-up version of the TOS theme yet again. It was fun once, but why did they repeat it in STID?

Because it's a part of the end credits sequence, which makes sense, really. I hope it's in the third film as well as part of the end credits.
 
Yeah it definitely would be out of place anywhere else in the film, but the credits make perfect sense. A little more variation a la Goldsmith might be neat but I'm sure for some people it's the only thing recognizably TOS in the movie. :devil:
