First Look At Alien From New Trek Film - Serious

Oh COME ON people - isn't anyone disappointed and giving uptheir last shred of hope for this movie because they don't like that alien?

Hasn't anyone's worst fears been confirmed?

Hasn't someone here been saying since Day One that this movie will suck and these pix prove it?

Yes.

But I'm tired.

So very tired.

Coming down off the meth, Sam?

SMARTIES candy, mostly.

Same thing.
 
The most annoying thing is the pic showing the Enterprise-delta banners on the academy grounds - it seems to confirm that the use of the delta has been retconned to become the symbol of Starfleet in general, as it was in TNG onward, and not just an individual ships moniker as it was in TOS..
 
Eh, I can't bring myself to care about that. The delta symbol has become such an ubiquitous part of the Star Trek, it would feel odd NOT to see it with Starfleet uniforms. Only a small minority of hardcore Star Trek fans are really going notice the retconn and even a smaller amount are going to care about it. Heck, even in TOS they couldn't keep it straight with wardrobe and we'd see the symbol on people who weren't on Enterprise. Also it didn't start with TNG, it started with TMP if I recall right.

I disagree. The most annoying thing in the pic is the license plate on the futuristic car. Looks like we'll have to pay license and registration on our hover cars in the future!
 
Another thing about the delta symbol, is it possible that only certain ships were allowed to have a custom symbol and others like the Enterprise used the standard symbol? Maybe the option to have a custom symbol was left up to the desecration of the captain or some other authority?
 
I´ve never seen this specie of alien in the photos.

Is he an alien? Does anybody know this symbol?

I believe that's the same alien, coming and going. Don't know about the symbol in the third shot.

That is a disgrace!




No not really. Just upholding the tradition! ;)
 
Hmm...I was thinking there was a vague resemblance to the alien in "Enemy Mine", but after looking up the pic, I guess they're not really that similar after all.

I noticed those right off. But could it be that they are just decorations celebrating the dedication of the Enterprise. After all we don't really know the reason for all the "cadets" being gathered together do we. Maybe it was a pep rally.

Why so surprised about a remake changing things?
Isn't that what they do?
Changing things around because certain people think they know they can do better then the originators of the material they are fucking up?

Anyone?

They must be putting something new in the water...

Apathy. It's delicious and safer than flouride.

Chill bro.. I'm looking forward to the new movie as much as anyone else here. Things like this are slightly annoying to us obsessive compulsive types, but it isn't a deal-breaker..

Man, what's not to like? He's blue, he's got some kind of horizontal striping, he's got an enormous appendage jutting out of the back of his head...

Everything and Anything is fair game for a change, when it comes to remakes.
Just look at the new BSG.
