In my wildest dreams the latest Justice League film involves an alternate universe Wally West played by Jeff Goldblum. Him explaining speed force like chaos theory in JP to not Jesus Superman or brooding batfleck, would be amazing.

I have some bad news for you, folks: 20 years of nostalgia are only serving to hide that the first movie was poo poo. The sequel isn't going to be better.

It would be cooler if they ditched the straight to DVD-esque movie title and called it Memorial Day and then released it on Memorial Day.

Independence Day had one of the most effective teasers in the history of the film industry. This one is mediocre and lazy. New big ship is bigger looks neat I guess.

I can sum up why Independence Day is a bad movie with three words that have nothing to do with race: that loving speech. The rest of the movie could have rivaled The Godfather Part II and that loving speech would still have dragged it down to crap, but in a movie with little else to offer beyond admittedly excellent special effects? Westboro Baptist Church are going to picket Emmerich's funeral with a sign saying "GOD HATES ID4", that's how bad it is.

Since when is WBC picketing something a sign that that thing is *bad*? WBC pickets funerals of soldiers and have signs that read "GOD HATES GAYS", does that mean soldiers and gay people are bad? Or is this some kind of "ironic" trolling that's gone over my head?

I read somewhere that the only reason the speech is in the movie is because the studio didn't want to call the movie "Independence Day" as there was some issue with the rights to that name. So Emmerich went and filmed that scene and showed it to the execs as a way to pump them up about the title and get them to pony up the cash.

The speech was silly, but it was this scene that was most ridiculous to non-Americans. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haIMvy_Iv3E If the American president wants to be all gently caress YEAH AMERICA! that's cool, but it's the idea that everyone is just sitting on their hands waiting around for the US to come up with a solution that is the most eye-rolling. That said, ID4 is awesome.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRVD32rnzOw Official trailer release I'm... really not feeling this. What the hell did they do this franchise? Trek 09 was really fun and actually felt like Star Trek in some ways. After Into Darkness attempted to channel Wrath of Khan and failed miserably, this looks like it's just a generic adventure that has nothing to do with what Trek is and I don't appreciate the musical call back to the first movie at all. e;fb

It's a weird direction for the trailer, but the team dynamic is already popping a lot more than it ever did for Into Darkness. Justin Lin looking like a good call so far.

I dunno, the crew getting lost and having to deal with it seems more interesting than yet another Khan rip-off.

Deakul posted:this looks like it's just a generic adventure that has nothing to do with what Trek is To be fair, the title states that they're moving beyond Star Trek. Doesn't seem like they're using Sofia Boutella as well as Kingsman did. Is the alien at 1:03 Idris Elba? Doesn't look much like him to me, but if not interesting we only hear him in the trailer, not see him.

Deakul posted:this looks like it's just a generic adventure that has nothing to do with what Trek is Funny you should mentionthat ... quote:On the original draft by Orci, Pegg commented that Paramount "had a script for Star Trek that wasn't really working for them. I think the studio was worried that it might have been a little bit too Star Trek-y." For his role as the primary screenwriter, Pegg had been asked to make this new film "more inclusive", stating that the solution was to "make a western or a thriller or a heist movie, then populate that with Star Trek characters so it's more inclusive to an audience that might be a little bit reticent." Pegg and Jung's screenplay is officially co-credited with Orci, McKay and Payne. Mission accomplished! On the other hand "The crew gets snatched out of the Enterprise and stranded on a remote planet with a whole bunch of other alien crews by some unknown power for some unknown reason" sounds like a plot straight out of a classic Trek episode

^^^Well there you go. But if anyone can get away with making it less "Trek-y," it's Pegg -- a talented writer in his own right who's also a giant nerd. I mean we're on the five year mission now, so you're likely introducing new races, new planets, building up the sort of mythology that made the latter end of pre-Abrams Trek feel like such a chore for people who aren't hardcore sci-fi nerds. So as off as it might feel, an action-heavy trailer cut to SABOTAGE that emphasizes the team dynamic and gives viewers the quick gist of what's going on (the Enterprise is hosed, a frontier planet is violently resisting contact with Starfleet, Kirk's gonna bang a snow-skinned alien chick) is probably the way to go.

The same goes for the rest of the movie. ya if there is ever a time for cheesy patriotism then it's certainly when aliens are destroying humanity. So in that context the speech works even if it's as american as it could possibly be (though ironic considering who the director was). e: That Star Trek trailer is "meh" and it worries me that I'm probably more interested in ID2 than a new Star Trek (which seems to be less Star Trek with every movie).
