I have it on good authority that, through CGI similar to that used on Armie Hammer in The Social Network, he will be playing both of the whales from ST IV.

That explanation is actually worse than having no explanation at all.

AlternateAccount posted:The first movie is basically inexcusable and incomprehensible. The whole thing clearly came into existence as a bullet point list of scenes they wanted to have. Then they just slapped the poo poo together with the most contrived and nonsensical possible bits of "plot" in between to push from one to the next. It's awful, and for some reason 99% of goons don't give a gently caress. I don't think I dislike the movie quite as much as you do, but I agree about a lot of the plot points being contrived. I remember thinking that the movie was pretty great after seeing it in the theater, but subsequent viewings at home really make all of the warts pop out at you. I'm optimistic that Into Darkness will be a lot less bumbling now that they've established all of the characters and shed the trappings of the old Trek series/films, but we'll see.

Harime Nui posted:I guess it's bad to go to fanfictionville but it would have been a so much better movie if Khan had helped them kill Marcus and then just joined starfleet. Before you know it he'd be running the place! I thought the movie was going in a similar direction right up until the point where they're on Marcus's ship and Kirk tells Scotty to drop him once they get to the bridge. I didn't think Khan would join Starfleet, but maybe help Kirk defeat Marcus then collect his frozen crew and shove off to parts unknown. This route probably wouldn't jive with the fact that he killed Kirk's father figure, but it would've been an interesting inversion of the adversarial relationship between Kirk and Khan and could've been a good chance to show that the series was going to take old characters in new directions. Instead they literally phone a guy from the old movies who tells them that no, Khan is 100% evil and they have to fight him.

piscesbobbie posted:I STILL think we deserve a DS9 movie and a Voyager movie. First Contact could've been a joint TNG/DS9 movie, or even just a DS9 movie on its own. Sisko going apeshit on the Borg would've made more sense than Picard's out-of-nowhere vendetta, at least.
