CloseFriend posted:I really think they'll go in a whole new direction as they did with Nero and his crew. I'd laugh my rear end off if they went in the other direction and decided to make the Klingons "super-ridged," like War from the TMNT Adventures comics. I can understand why they'd want to go in a different direction with Klingons, assuming they're in the movie. Problem is, though, they've already established that Enterprise is the only series that still holds true (in this alternate timeline, anyway). So, unless the Klingons quickly figured some cure for the modified augment virus, they should still be flat-headed. The thing with the Nero and the other Romulans, is that they really weren't all that different than the standard. Sure, they had shaved heads and tattoos, but there's a reason for that. Romulans shave their heads and and cranial tattoos as a sign of mourning. Something they sometimes choose to do after a severe personal tragedy.

Barometer posted:Hell, I'd rather they were using Colonel Green to be honest, he'd serve the fans and he's also got so little backstory (hitler-esque dude) that you could go anywhere with him. Green has potential. Unfortunately, he lived in the 21st century, not the 23rd.

WebDog posted:It's somewhat telling of how narrow minded the Trek execs have been since Wrath of Khan as they're always trying to find some clunky way to reference the Kahn/Kirk dynamic be it Gorkon eating the scenery or Shinzon trying to outdo Picard. I realize we're all talking about on-screen stuff, but The Eugenics Wars do get a decent explanation in book form. A two book series, "The Eugenics Wars Vol. 1 & 2: The Rise And Fall Of Kahn Noonien Singh." Provides a lot of backstory for Kahn, and the wars. As a bonus, you get a lot of stuff with Gary Seven.

davidspackage posted:I watched Abrams' Star Trek again last week, and goddamn is it a fun, good movie. Music, casting, humor, it just hits all the right notes. It's pretty impressive when you listen to the commentary and watch the deleted scenes, and see how much it was cut up from its original version. I have to agree, especially on Bones. Dr. McCoy posted:Don't pander to me, kid. One tiny crack in the hull and our blood boils in thirteen seconds. Solar flare might crop up, cook us in our seats. And wait'll you're sitting pretty with a case of Andorian shingles, see if you're still so relaxed when your eyeballs are bleeding. Space is disease and danger wrapped in darkness and silence.

If Q ever shows up again, it has to be Gary Oldman.
