The First Trailer

What is the deal with the motorcycle? Have they outlawed the wheel in the future? I had the same "what the fuck?" reaction to people criticizing the Argo in Nemesis.

At the time, people criticized the dune buggy chase in Nemesis. I guess if you have young and beautiful people playing Trek dress-up, then it's ok.
You realize, of course, that it's all Star Trek dress-up, right? You are aware that there is no real starship Enterprise or starship crew?

Don't go to reddit.com/r/startrek. It's a hell hole right now with the shittiest comments I have ever seen, and them attacking people who even show the slightest liking of the new trailer.
 
"Star Trek Beyond Ridiculous" would be a better title…Seriously WTF?

This trailer looks like it’s only mission is to make Star Trek look like mindless drivel such as your average Fast and Furious movie.

Mark my words Bob Orci’s film would have been 1000x better and had roles for William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy to celebrate the 50th Anniversary. Instead we are going Star Trek for morons….I’m totally disgusted from looking at this trailer.

PREDICTION: THIS FILM IS GOING TO SWEEP THE RAZZIE AWARDS!!!!

I truly hope this post was suppose to be humorous?

The budget for Leonard Nimoy alone would have been enormous, let alone the rest of the cast and movie.

You laugh now, but you just watch when the movie makes more than half a billion dollars globally, earns critical acclaim, and is still totally not Star Trek and is the worst thing ever! Not one Real True Star Trek Fan will have seen it! :p
 
I do not care that Shatner is nowhere in this production.

Nothing against Shatner, but his non-involvement has been a fact of the Franchise for over a generation. Let it go.

There's nothing "mindless" about the trailer. Pay attention.
 
After years of reading the internet, my biggest take away is that nothing is real Star Trek. It all sucks. It's all made for morons and life is a hollow lie.

...

Is the new movie out yet?
 
Guessing he might not have been able to make it to an escape pod.

I wonder if he hums Amazing Grace on the way down.

:lol:


- I bet you all: The old, relic federation ship the crew tries to salvage will look a lot more like the Enterprise from the 60's!

You bet, like I said some pages back, given that this will be the "Skyfall" for Trek movies, it'll be that Austin Martin moment all over again.

With maybe a little of "Bride of the Doctor" vibe, where they grab pieces of other ships and make the old girl space worthy again or something.

According to my calculations, taking into account Youtube comments, and such, there are approximately 11 Real and For True Star Trek fans in the world, and none of them are going to see the film, unless of course they are dragged there by well-meaning friends who will, of course, pay for the movie so their friend can give <awful latest film incarnation of Trek> a real chance.

They will not be moved, of course, because Real and For True Star Trek fans are well versed in Kolinahr. Now watch as they explain to you why, in precisely 11,247 words, you're a doody head for liking the film.

I'll take a movie directed by the guy who made two of the greatest heist-action films in history over a first-time director with a 9/11 conspiracy fetish, thank you.

And I have some bad news for you about Nimoy.

when the movie makes more than half a billion dollars globally
I'm betting neither of these things shall come to pass. It'll probably land smack dab in the middle of those two extremes. :)

ST09 made about $365 million. STID made about $467 million. I expect this one will do pretty much the same, perhaps a little better, because it has Justin Lin's name on it, and the F&F movies make big money, especially overseas, where the two Trek films have increasingly done better overall.

ST09: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=startrek11.htm
STID: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=startrek12.htm

It's certainly more feasible than "will sweep the razzies!"

There's nothing but wisecracks, FX and 'a' ship crashed in a quarry that is obvious in the trailer. But whilst the portents do not look good, it's a rush to judge the film on this one trailer alone. If you go through it with a fine tooth comb and freeze frame you will discern elements of this film that could very well give this film depth.

It'll win awards, the hollywood top dogs like congratulating themselves and they won't defy JJ nor all the kids who get a high from the FX. Or maybe it'll win awards for good reasons. Third time lucky and all of that.
