Okan170 posted:To be fair, Robert Wise mentions that this is done as part fanservice and part as an attempt to help make V'Ger appear much larger and intimidating when it shows up. After all, we get a good scale for the ship and then seeing that ship dwarfed brings us into the moment of feeling so helpless as the Enterprise is drawn deeper and deeper into its never-ending complexity. I still find it amazing how talented Robert Wise is as a director. The guy could direct any genre.

Mogomra posted:The Hauting from 1963 is still, by far, my favorite horror movie of all time. I'm amazed every time I think that the same director directed TMP, and The Hauting. Lets not forget West Side Story, Sound of Music, Day the Earth Stood Still, and The Andromeda Strain. The dude was a really good director.

thrawn527 posted:Whoa whoa, I have no problem with Mudd being a woman. I have a problem with Mudd showing up at all in the sequel. Granted, I doubt he/she will, but showing up in the comic is a little too close for comfort. Chances are its just an easter egg, and if they ever bring that character into the movie they will ignore it.

Alchenar posted:Yeah but this would be the first time that Kirk and Marcus get together, which makes sense if you're looking for a canonical love interest for Kirk's early career. I really hope that since she is in it people expect it to be a rehash of Khan, but instead Khan is not even in it, and she ends up siding with the villian.

Rocket Ace posted:...and for not bothering to check up on him. Or anyone one else from Starfleet bothering to do check on him. Dumping the entire crew of the Reliant on that desert planet might have been an extra bit of revenge against Starfleet in general. Ya that is exactly what it was. He did have some legitimate grivences, but he went overboard with it. Also when they left him it was not a desert planet, it was just a bit rough.

mr. stefan posted:I'm kind of hoping that at some point in Pines run as Kirk there's a moment where he's getting his as handed to him, he suddenly has an "eureka" moment where he puts his hands together in the classic trek Double Fist Slam, and turns the tide. The movie needs to have the fight music from Amok Time. That music is classic and something that everyone remembers.

Neo Rasa posted:Outside of time travel episodes New York isn't really portrayed at all in Star Trek. There are references to how _____ character's family is from there or whatever but if I remember right, outside of the west coast almost all of North and South America is large scale controlled farmland. Makes me wonder if, since it's kind of a blank slate it just wasn't even considered as a location. They can destroy London as England took over France a while ago and turned it into Dickensian London along with wineyards.

I wonder if Benedict Cumberbatch is a Klingon disguised as human to infultrate Star Fleet. It would make him sort of like an Augment while not rehashing it, and bring the Klingon's back in a big way.

WMain00 posted:Empire Magazine pretty much confirmed this month that the ship in the trailer breaking up in the atmosphere is Enterprise. Whether it's the same ship that crashes into the water though remains to be seen. As Battlestar has shown a ship breaking up in the atmosphere does not mean it will be destroyed.

Blistex posted:To me, a one-dimensional villain is a character who's motivations are either not explained, or make no sense. Both Shinzon and Nero wanted to destroy Earth because...? I can sort of see Nero wanting to destroy Vulcan because it was Spock's home, and Nero saw his destroyed "at the hands of Spock"*, but Earth was just tacked on to keep the stakes high. Shinzon on the other hand makes no loving sense. I thought he wanted to destroy earth because it was also Spock's home. It was also where starfleet was based and they said they would help and failed.
