Spoilers Spoiler-ish Q&A - Star Trek Beyond

[m.lp.ql.m]

In order to pass the MASH test, a movie must have at least one scene where 2 Koreans are in the scene alone and talk about something other than Korea.

Isn't John Cho Korean? And the guy who plays Sulu's husband too? Does that count?

No, because Sulu is a Japanese character. The characters must be Korean themselves.

 

[Fabien]

can you tell us if the Yorktown Starbase will be destroyed please ?

Spoiler: Swarm

The signal is designed to interfere with the signal used between swarm ships, and so they require something loud and disruptive. Makes sense in the film, but people will inevitably nitpick it on this forum.

And, according to the film, it IS classical music. The music of today will be to the late 22nd century what the music of Mozart is to us.

That is literally the stupidest thing I've read on the net today.

 

[AndyPandy]

Had my second viewing today. They've removed All opening credits, tightened up the closing credits, and made a few small edits during the film. Still awesome, will watch again.

Spoiler: Yorktown

No, not destroyed

Spoiler: Swarm

Makes sense in the context of the film.

 

[MarsWeeps]

Spoiler: Nimoy and Yelchin

Sorry if I missed this but how was Spock Prime's death announced in the movie? Was it just someone making a comment about it? Also what kind of dedication was there for Yelchin? Just something like "In Memory of" during the closing credits?

Spoiler

During the end credits, it goes to black (and silence) before Dedicated to Leonard Nimoy. That fades away and then For Anton comes up. Then the rest of the credits.

Spoiler: Spock Prime

An envoy of Vulcans visits with Spock to pass on the information.

Spoiler

If they're writing Chekov out of the next film, then I'd like to see Jaylah join the crew next time. Plus it'd give Uhura another female character to interact with.

That's not a spoiler. Neither is this.

 

[Dick Whitman]

Any mention of Spock's father Sarek? I was not really a fan of the casting but it would be nice to see the character again. Obviously in the Prime timeline he will be alive for another century. I would be shocked if killed him off for no reason. Considering his mother was already killed off.

No. Not much of a spoiler, but hey.

 

[TheMartian]

What is it that

Spoiler

makes Spock laugh?

Spoiler

Blood loss and pain. Delirium.

 

[TheMartian]

Thanks! Is it true that

Spoiler

Uhura's necklace is a plot point? I saw a reference to a "tracking device"...

Minor plot point, major joke.

Or bring back Carol and introduce Rand.

Spoiler: swarm

It does make sense that the Beastie Boys' music could destroy a fleet of ships. It's still rather dumb writing.

What opening credits?

Spoiler: Spoiler: swarm

If the swarm are connected through telepathy, then an attack using music is not a "dumb idea". Music has been used in psychological warfare for thousands of years. It can be used to disorient an enemy, especially if they are not familiar with the music. In Iraq and Afghanistan, the US Army played heavy metal and/or rock music to confuse and/or scare enemy combatants.
