They've said all 25 houses will dress differently, instead of every single Klingon on the face of Qo'nos being Kruge cosplayers.
That brownish costume looks really good. I really don't like the pallid skin or lack o hair though. Makes them look like Remans.
I kinda had a 'WTF' moment when I first saw the redesign for the Klingons, but like "Discovery" as a whole, they've grown on me. I realized that the writers and producers choosing to update the Klingons was no different then the decision to more radically change them for their appearance in "The Motion Picture". The Klingons aren't the only ones to have their appearance 'changed', albeit they were probably the most drastic, throughout the 50 years of Trek. All the major races, (Vulcans, Andorians, Romulans, Tellarites) have changed significantly, due to a mixture of both creative decisions and advancing make-up prosthetics. Admittedly, the fact that "Discovery" is changing the expected look while it's set in a gap of continuity is a bold move. It makes you wonder how much other races might change.
Languages are often named geographically, though. I think it's feasible that if an entire planet was unified, there would be some kind of constructed common language (along the lines of Esperanto), and it could be named after the whole planet. But the Klingon language has the same name as the Klingon people, rather than being named after the planet Kronos/Qo'noS I can't see your image. Kor
count yourself lucky. jk. kinda. ummm it works for me... it's not like those gifs i posted yesterday...
TV/movie alien makeups always look a little weird under natural daytime lighting. These Klingons were designed to be seen on the dark Klingon sets.
yeah and star trek discovery would have to import their furs from europe and delay production 9 months, rather than buy them from IKEA.
