He's currently dueling Jeffrey Combs for who gets to go firstWhat I want to know is, when will Vaughn Armstrong appear in DSC? Because we all know he will.

Of course you're entitled to this opinion but I really don't see it. They look very much like Klingons to me. All the same basic design cues, ridges, skin colour, armour. They're certainly no greater changed than the Klingons were in TMP (or indeed after that movie).

The cheesy fairground ride music will start playing, the lid of that sarcophagus will open up, and Armstrong will sit up in full Dracula mode shouting "Perhaps today was not a good day to die!"
You know it's gonna happen.
Agreed. I feel weird for saying this, but the Klingons in the trailer look like they're like, really dark African black guys in Klingon makeup instead of white guys in brown Klingon makeup.
It looks beautiful and i simply can't wait. Anyone expecting this to look like prime universe effects is out to lunch and if it copied TOS people would complain even more about a "modern ripoff"
I have no problem with SMG's acting either, and frankly, acting is the last thing i worry about from anything.. unless its so bad its noticeable and to me, its not. We saw two mins of the tralier, clips from probably 3 episodes... there's plenty of room for this show to grow and have potential. that's all i ask.

If so, awesome. Klingon makeup came pretty close to blackface more than once.
I think the only Klingon that these Klingons might be similar to is General Chang from TUC. They don't look like any other Klingon I've seen.
I think the klingons look absolutely stunning. They're menacing for real this time. There's an air of Jeepers Creepers over them maybe. I love that. I'm probably alone in this, but I genuinely couldn't stand how they were depicted on TNG and DS9: an advanced race of supposedly deadly warriors that moved around like fat cosplayers and talked like Donald Trump. Good riddance.
I don't know why some people are displeased with the trailer. I love everything about it. Just look at Michelle Yeoh! What a queen she is. I can't believe we're fortunate enough to have her on the show. She's the biggest name to ever be cast in Star Trek, and we have people in here questioning whether she even knows how to act. I mean jesus christ.

Here's the thing:
ST:TMP: First time the Klingons looked different from the Star Trek TV series Klingons, and the first time we heard the Klingon language spoken.
STIII:TSFS: Second time we see Klingons AND these Klingons look very different from how they looked in ST:TMP
ST:TNG TV Series: Third time we really see Klingons - and they do look similar to STIII:TSFS Klingons. Klingon look becomes in general more consistent (some minor changes season to season with Worf. We also see Klingon blood is in fact red in TNG: "Redemption II" - when Worf cerimoniously cuts ghimself as his family honor is restored
STVI:TUC: Here we have Klingons again, but they do look (again) quite different from pervious Klingon versions - and here their blood is pink.
ENT: Klingons here look like TNG style Klingons again.
My point? Even in the so called 'Prime' Universe sorry, but the 'Klingon look' from ST:TMP on has never been consistent.
Please tell me I'm not the only one who thought of Sarah Michelle Gellar when reading this
That begs the question, why is it that the Klingons seem to be the only alien race in Star Trek that have changed a lot over time. I don't think any other race has changed as much as the Klingons have. Take for instance the Vulcans. What if the Vulcan look had changed in this series, what would the reaction be?
My reaction. Maybe minus 50 pounds.
It looks beautiful (Klingons included) and that's it, that trailer was AWFUL...
It felt poorly edited, didn't introduce us in any meaningful way to the characters, ship, setting or story. It struck me as here are the only clips we have ready so let's slap them together and call it a trailer.

Maybe it's because I like guns (aesthetic appearance and the discipline of shooting them, no violent things whatsoever), but I thought of this ...
Well, they gave the Romulan's head ridges for no reason... I wasn't really a fan of that. Then they made the head ridges more pronounced over time. Then JJ took them away. *shrugs*
If suddenly Vulcan's started sporting a new haircut I think many fans would have a problem with that. Or if they gave them like...elbow talons or something.
At least I wasn't the only one going in the wrong direction
It's a bit rough, but that's to be expected. They probably rushed this out.
First impression: looks good. I like it. The ship looks a bit too much like the NX-01 inside. I like the uniforms. CGI is a bit rough but that's probably because they rushed it.
I won't be a Debbie downer here. This looks good. Glad we finally have a trailer.
