I will pay all of the latinum for this to happen!
NYCC Season 3 Trailer
- Thread starter Precious Tritium
- Start date
Sounds rather promising.
Agreed!
I done well, people love it or find it easier to roll with the nitpicks (which is still individual upon viewer, inevitably). If overdone and doesn't work, people are understandably more inclined to complain. It's always been that way, even newspaper snippets from the 1960s where viewers wrote in aren't too much different. My favorite is in regards to Doctor Who when a viewer wrote into the BBC and complained that the show, which took itself seriously, is not about "Coco the Clown", even if Troughton's humor is more deft than overt clownishness... but that's another story.
Heck, while season 2 was a remix of some old ideas, it was largely done better than what preceded it (STFC, TVH, et al.) TVH also redid the time travel shtick done twice in TOS too, so there's a definite precedent...

I prefer the revenge trope as it's more personal, instead of "Earth in danger, boom boom splat." It rarely gets old, especially if the setup is right. Shinzon was so convoluted and the story was shoving in too much that audiences were metaphorically puking long before any potential payoff...

Two underrated characters and Moriarty definitely had the most open-ended denouement, and with Daniel Davis at the helm, it's not going to be bad.
I hope Lore is more like season 1 - the malevolence is iconic to the character and for all that story's plot problems, the characters more than kept the story exciting in turn. That's huge, IMHO.

I was also thinking, this could be a case where Data is acting like Lore for some reason.
Where do I send flowers?Also, I don't care what your opinions are about the Odyssey and Luna class designs....
Two different fans designed these for two different competitions and won. One for the novels, one for a game. There are a lot more Trek fans that don't read the books or play STO than those that do. And now, both designs are part of of Star Trek television.
HOW FRIGGIN AWESOME IS THAT FOR THOSE FANS?!?!?!
It shows growth. I like it and I normally don't like Worf.
This is the Prime La Sirena, the Borg Queen took the Confederation La Sirena.
You see him fighting Raffi in the trailer
Laris is in this season, but very briefly.
Oh. Oops. Sorry.
Yeah, IIRC Matalas has said they filmed some scenes for the first episode. IMHO this was absolutely necessary, because even if she's not involved in Season 3 really, they completely invalidate the supposed "lesson" to Picard for Season 2 (that he needs to open himself up to a relationship) if Laris just scuttled off and was never heard from again.
While I do believe that Picard has a son (and Beverly is the mother), I don't think Thomas Dekker is playing the role...I believe Ed Speleers is.
I follow Burnett on YouTube and he really dislikes modern Trek but he claims to have gotten his hands on a bootleg copy of Season 3 and loved it.
To add credence to this he recently had Terry Matalas on his YouTube channel and interviewed him for about a half hour. Terry didn't deny that he saw it and Robert has worked with Paramount a few times in the past. So make of that what you will. He also said the new trailer doesn't give the main story away. Specifically saying he's tired of the Khan trope too and the villain may not be what people think. Also not everything is action in this new season.
Just Breaking:
A leaked glimpse of Amanda Plummer's most important scene in Season 3. This show is going to be LIT.

Why not?
The more I reflect on this trailer, the more it doesn't sit well with me. They have the opportunity to give the TNG cast a more fitting send-off than Nemesis...and the best they can come up with is to pull another Shinzon out of their ass?
Same. It's strangely disquieting.

Just need the "Kill everything" line to have Star Trek Bingo!

I disagree. For one, we know very little of the actual plot. And we know nothing of the villain's backstory or motivations. The plot could very different from Nemesis and the villain motivations could be completely different from Shinzon. Just because the villain also wants revenge does not mean that they just "pulling another Shinzon".
I wonder if Plummer's character, Lore and Moriarty form a villain team up? It would make sense. They have all a grudge against Picard and the Enterprise crew. They might decide to team up since they have common cause. I hope I am right. Having a 3 villains who team up against Picard and TNG company would be cool IMO.
And your point being?
FWIW Robert Meyer Burnett says that the trailer gives little away of the plot for the season and the villain isn't quite what she appears. I like listening to his observations from time to time. He has intimated that he's seen all of S3 and he likes it. While hating the first two seasons. He said he was pre-blocked by the official Paramount+ Twitter feed due to his intense very public dislike of modern trek.

Yeah, I think RMB says that we will understand, even maybe agree with the villain's motivations and that it is more than just wanting revenge for revenge sake. So presumably, the villain has some real motivation that is driving her. If so, I think that is good.
