Spoilers STAR TREK BEYOND
- Thread starter Khan 2.0

Yeah I watched it last night on my gaming laptop but I meant I had to do it to see how awesome it looked on 4k tv. Then I watched it another five-ten times. Looked amazing.
I'm still waiting for his piece on how all Trek fans hate it. Then again, that might not happen since Abrams didn't direct. NVM.The greatest irony:
After he and his cronies tell us for months the movie wouldn't be made, and they shut down the sets.

I think Faraci is happy to see how this Trek film being promoted unabashedly as a Trek film, whereas the last one had posters with 9/11 imagery that felt very off-putting. Just that new poster alone for BEYOND with all the colors makes me giddy. I've been very disappointed with nuTrek these years, and I'm just so truly happy to feel some kind of excitement for a Trek film finally. I really hope they get this right. 
It's an extremely well educated and evidenced guess about the plot structure of the film, but it's still just a guess based on information available to anyone willing to do the legwork, so it doesn't constitute a spoiler. If it were we'd have to shut down any kind of speculation and posting of screencaps around here.
I wonder if that means they could have fit an altered version of TOS into the time skip seeing as the show was only 3 seasons long.
So the posters warning made it sound more spoilery than it really is. Gotcha. Thank you, LOB.
No worries. You're welcome.
Fair enough. I do want to know more as well. I'm just less interested in the villains than I was before.
I don't know why, but to see Star Trek, Star Wars, and Pornhub all trending at the same time made me chuckle.
About 80% of digital film files are projected at 2k from a 2k master taken from cameras with 4K resolution or higher (like The Martian). A good portion of 4K UHD Blu-ray Discs are uprezzed from a 2k digital intermediate (DI). Short answer: no better than 50/50 chance it's screened in 4K.
If I'm not mistaken Beyond is being released in Barco Escape venues, which features a 4K laser projector at its center.
Let me preface this by saying I'm not a fan of the JJ Trek movies at all. I also hated the first STB trailer. That said, I liked this new trailer. There's hope!
There were some subtle elements of it that I liked. With the ships, it looks like they're going for that nautical vibe again. Which is great. I hated how the ships moved in the Abrams movies. Very cartoony. I also think the space station shots looked cool.
The music was also a nice change of pace. Space is big, dark, & mysterious; it's weird. The music had this eery synth stuff going on that really works well with a space movie IMO.
All the new aliens look interesting. Krall looks like a cool villain. Genuinely menacing. Much better than the generic villians of the last two films.

I like this trailer better than the first, I wish they had shown this one INSTEAD of that one. But the Star Trek reboot just is missing something. It will never be as good as the original series/movies. Shatner and Nimoy's Kirk and Spock, well you just can't replace.
The best time I had going to see a Star Trek movie was the "Wrath of Khan." I was with my friends, the movie theater was packed, and we scrambled to get good seats. When the theater went dark and the opening credits ran across the screen the place erupted into applause. I have NEVER seen that in any other movie since. It was electrifying, you just knew you were going to see something special. Just buckle up cause it was going to be a wild ride, and it was. I loved Star Trek 3 and 4. Even 6 had the elements in it that made it special.
I think, sometimes they are overthinking the reboot. Scotty said in ST 3 The more they overthink the plumbing, the easier it is to stop up the drain.
I will see this movie, of course. I'm a Trekkie, but I think there are just so many holes in the stories so far. IMHO
(I'll just say that I think Spock is too emotional, Kirk was too free wheeling, and I don't like the romance between Spock and Uhura (again this is just my opinion)

Well, the trailer did it's job then-got people interested.
I'll still take the first one though.

What is this guy's problem with Star Trek? Everytime he pops up, it is usually him being a cunt. Latest was him insulting AVGN for saying he won't see the Ghostbusters movie.
