Strange New Worlds Season 2 Trailer

[HotRod]

Roots, it's a Canadian clothing store.

Even Captain Kirk needs a pair of overpriced sweatpants.

 

[Tuskin38]

Oh God, MORE time travel? Le sigh...

You didn't realize that before I said it?

It was quite obviously earth IMO.

 

[Mudd]

People continue to behave as if time travel is some kind of aberration in Star Trek. On the contrary, it was not part of the initial concept of the show but by the end of the first season of TOS was ensconced as part of the mythology to be returned to again, and again, for the very good reason that a significant percentage of Trek's best remembered and most successful episodes have been time travel stories.

 

[DaveyNY]

This guy lived over 200 years ago. Who was he?

My great grandma's kissing cousin on my fathers side.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

You didn't realize that before I said it?

It was quite obviously earth IMO.

Yeah, but I hoped against hope that there had to have been some other explanation.

One of the knee jerk reactions that plague fans.

 

[cooleddie74]

TOS had no fewer than three separate and distinct time travel stories in the first season alone. Time travel was almost baked into the show from the dawn of the series.

 

[fireproof78]

It's not an aberration. It's a well traveled road in Trek that I wish to avoid in the future.

Yes, it's rather unavoidable. I believe the turn of phrase is "I'm not mad; just disappointed."

 

[Noname Given]

Who is this Infamous figure from World War II?

 

[Nerys Myk]

Yeah, but I hoped against hope that there had to have been some other explanation.

I kind of hoping for that other knee jerker, Parallel World.

 

[fireproof78]

Who is this Infamous figure from World War II?

Deputy Führer Melakon

Some people don't want sci-fi in their sci-fi

 

[Mudd]

Exactly. Implicit in Roddenberry's idea of an "anthology with continuing characters" was doing a wide variety of types of stories, as the highly-regarded Twilight Zone had. It wasn't just about a ship exploring space.

 

[fireproof78]

Not all flavors appeal to all comers.

 

[cooleddie74]

Who is this Infamous figure from World War II?

Mengele? But I'm a history nerd so...

 

[Mad_Jasper]

Not a fan of Kirk or the anachronistic dialog of the secondary characters. And what the hell was this "It's making me sweat"!?! Maybe just misdirection due to the nature of the trailer?

I was disappointed by the lack of moments between Pike, Spock, and Number One, in S1 of SNW. S1 was quite forgettable. I was optimistic about better character development in S2 but this trailer does not offer encouragement.

 

[Nerys Myk]

Mengele? But I'm a history nerd so...

So, not Dave Foley?

 

[Nerys Myk]

the anachronistic dialog of the secondary characters.

It's the made up future. How can anything be "anachronistic"?

 

[cooleddie74]

So, not Dave Foley?

He played Mengele in Brain Candy. Easy mistake.

 

[fireproof78]

Not a fan of Kirk or the anachronistic dialog of the secondary characters.

"in a pig's eye!"
