No, it was Leonard H. "Bones" McCoy. Deal with it.That wasn't McCoy. It was someone else.
Trailer #2 - Consolidated Discussion
- Thread starter { Emilia }
- Start date
Everything we've seen until now has been a heavily stylized Klingon TV adaptation, like a cross between ancient Egyptian hierogliphs and Powerpuff Girls. Now we're seeing the "real" Trek world.
This is a fandom which was upset that Tom Hardy was bald...
Agreed, I don't really see the fuss. They basically look like Klingons and the changes aren't any greater than the TOS/TMP/TSFS/TNG/TFF/TUC variations we've seen already.
The substantive changes can be put down to fashion and cultural differences. But the Klingons already had totally different costumes in TOS and the later films. The Klingon warriors we see from TMP onwards all have basically the same costumes, presumably because it's a KDF uniform of sorts.
These guys are likely a different group of Klingons with a different allegiance and agenda.
What's the song in this trailer? It sounds so familiar.
I'd Love to Change the World by Jetta. Previously used in trailers for Terminator: Genisys and Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.
This is my feelings as well, but you put it nice and succinctly. The complaints about "Why the changes to Klingons" really don't bother me, simply because there is no way that we have seen every Klingon ever shown. Why? Because Earth is still discovering tribes and understanding traditions.
If DSC is breaking away from the typical Star Trek monolithic culture trope, then I'm all for it.
They could've had somebody re-record All Along The Watchtower....no wait, that's been done.
I saw the first 2 trailers.
Good production values. Cinematic dark lighting and lots of action in the trailer.
I think I may be unique in that I limited my spoilers by choosing to view them without audio at all.
I did not get to hear any music or computer narration (if any). Has anyone watched the trailers after their first time without audio to see if they see things differently?
Also I would love to see people start recutting the 2 trailers with different music to turn them into a different genre trailer for fun.

Yeah, seems like for ages Trek fans have complained about aliens in the show always being shallow monocultures - Ferengi are greedy, Romulans are sneaky, Bajorans are pious, Vulcans are logical, Klingons are warriors.
But as soon as we get any variety people complain everything should be exactly the same as it always has been. Must be frustrating for the writers sometimes. Let's give it a go and see what these Klingons are like.
Well Kahless has already been mentioned in the descriptions of their uniforms.
Yes, the billions of people who inhabit a planet must all have the exact same cuisine, pets, and religious beliefs.
Kor
I stand corrected.
Sorry, but I do not agree with that. They may know who Spock is and "Live Long and Prosper," but when it comes to integral plots that would no doubt tie into the older shows if set post-Voyager, they'd have no idea. It would be set there for a reason -- because it wants to acknowledge what's come before it. If they chose to ignore it entirely, why set it there to begin with other than to just please us?
I was thinking Beatles for some reason.
