Swearing In Star Trek XI?

[Broccoli]

They want to swear...they better get Sam Jackson in on this stat!

"You goddamn motherfucking KHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNN!"

Kirk was not making a serious observation about the legitimancy of his alien opponents.

pfft...says you.

MCCOY: Damn it, Spock, why are you such a tightass?

SPOCK: At least, Doctor, I am not a dipshit.

There is no "frat" in Gaelic I know of (but what do I know?). He could have been saying 'bogus crap!' for all we know.

It's also a term I'm oblivious to, though my twelve years of schoolroom Gaelic didn't exactly include a master class on profanities.

MCCOY: Now, listen here, you green blooded, inhuman, pig fucker, I'm a Doctor, not a dipshit!!

Hopefully, there will be a minimum of cursing. I'd prefer none, of course.

Well Geelly Kryllie. (no idea how to spell that, btw).

"Green-blooded pig fucker" has possibilities.

No, no, NO...it's:

"Get these motherfucking Klingons off my motherfucking Starship!"

I expect that it'll have the same amount of swearing as Star Trek/sci-fi in general.

"Damn"'s and "hell"'s will come when appropriate. Occasional "ass", "bitch" or "shit".

Don't expect Kirk to say "You Klingon mother fucking douchebag cocksucker! You... killed my son!"

Oh, and TSFS, not TVH, started the swearing thing, with "You Klingon bastards, you killed my son!"

McCoy says, "Bull!" in ST II and it was edited out for US TV as "too salty".

 

[Jack Bauer]

Kirk to Spock: "Well, fuck me!"
Spock: "In which position do you wish me to fuck you, captain?"

SLASH...........

[Redfern]

Didn't McCoy in TWoK say, "G*d-d*mnit, Jim! Get back your command! Get back your command before you really do grow old!"? Or was it a less shocking, "D*mnit, Jim!"? I honestly can't remember and being at the office, I don't have access to any video.

Yes, I tend to censor myself.

Sincerely,

Bill

Abrams has said he wants this film to be "more real" than the others.
`
Given this aim, I think it would only be appropriate for the script to be littered with obscene language.
`
Is there anyone who does not agree with me?

Yes. I don't agree with you.

The reality is that in 200 years cursing will be largely seen as a feeble attempt to make inane conversation seem more impressive, and it will be a forgotten 'art'.

Clearly an idiosyncratic definition of "reality" not found in any English dictionary.

On the Samuel Jackson front, it's clear that when Kirk calls Khan a "bloodsucker" in ST II he actually has another word in mind.

 

[SeamusShameless]

I'll be happy if they get one "fuck" in there. Billy Bob Thornton said "fuck" in Armageddon and they still got a PG-13.

 

[number6]

It's Nimoy who gets to say "Fuck." Why else would he come out of retirement to do this film??

 

[starburst]

Swearing doesnt make it more realistic, Torchwood swears constantly and it seems more make believe than Doctor Who

Actually, Bones said "Dammit, Jim..." He did say, "It's about you flying a G*d damned computer console when you want to be out there hopping galaxies."

As an aside, in actuality, the only one I'd really want to hear swear would be Troi...
"My fucking boobs... You fucking stallion, SBK1234," You get the idea.

P.S. I do love these deep philosophical discussions.
