Chronocidal Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Maybe it's time for Trek to move into full-blown comedy territory... It seemed to work pretty well for ST:IV. Quote
Duke Togo Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 At least Pegg's a dyed-in-the-wool Star Trek fan. That doesn't mean it'll be good, mind you, but at least he'll TRY. I'm pretty sure he has always been a hardcore Star Wars fan. Quote
Mommar Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 I'm pretty sure he has always been a hardcore Star Wars fan. It's possible to be both. Quote
Knight26 Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 Simon Pegg as co-writer is the first good news I have heard about this film. While he is a hardcore SW fan, he respects the source material, so hopefully we'll get an actual Star Trek film this time. maybe he'll even find a way to close some of the plot holes and stuff some of the demons back into Pandora's box from the last ones.

Hikuro Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Not exactly on topic with the film, but I just met Karl Urban today. This guy was amazingly nice! I didn't expect that, I've met some celebrities but I never encountered one who really went above and beyond for a fan. Great to meet him wished him luck on this film. Quote

I'd rather see him in Dredd 2 than whatever the hell is going on with Reboot 3. Quote
Hikuro Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 I'd rather see him in Dredd 2 than whatever the hell is going on with Reboot 3. True true, he said he would love to go back to Almost Human or Dredd. He got on the phone talking to a friend of mine who couldn't come to the con after I told him she's a big dredd fan. What's even funnier is she was watching Dredd that exact moment cause I told her I was gonna get his autograph soon. Next thing she sees is my number answering the phone: Her: What? I'm watching Dredd right now. Me: Sorry, but I'm kind of in a bit of trouble.... Her: Oh god what did you do?! Did you embarrass yourself infront of Urban? Me: Sigh.....here I'll let the Judge explain. Her: Wait what? Urban: This is Judge Dredd. I am the Law. Her: ................... wait.............. OMIGOD! Urban: Sorry you couldn't make it to the con. But thanks for being a fan. James seems like a great guy. I'll let him off with a warning. *hands back the phone laughing* For 4 hours she was either screaming, crying, or hyperventilating. That movie holds more ground for her then ever before. Quote
Dobber Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 That is really a great story. I really want a Dredd 2 also. Chris Quote

Agent ONE Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 Maybe it's time for Trek to move into full-blown comedy territory... I thought the Next Generation was a comedy show. It was like, lets make a space show with zero action and then laugh at the fans... HAHAHAHA. Quote

Mommar Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 It's a long interview but at the end Simon Pegg talks about writing for Star Trek and it sounds like he at least understands the direction it should go, though the bits about having to ham-fist in the wishes of the F&F director may or may not help the writing. http://www.denofgeek.us/movies/simon-pegg/244941/simon-pegg-interview-star-trek-3-mission-impossible-kill-me-three-times Quote

Duke Togo Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 WTF is that? Who does that appeal to? I'm not even a Trek fan, but just no. That is so wrong. Quote
Knight26 Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 It's a strange world when the trailer for the ID4 sequel feels more like a Star Trek movie then the actual Star Trek Trailer. Quote
electric indigo Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Where's the un-see button...? Quote
hal9000 Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 And yet more action than last time, Sigh... Quote
Thom Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 (edited) Well, I'm pretty sure the whole movie won't be a Beastie Boys video. And that actually hearkens back to the first JJ film, when young Kirk was driving the classic Corvette. I actually liked it. It rocked, which I think after the last movie, the series needed. I'm sure the next trailer will probably be more in depth. As for the movie, it would appear that yet another Enterprise has given it's swan song. Which raises hopes for the next Enterprise! Hopefully it will be Excelsior-esq, as was originally intended for the end of ST III. And yeah, more action. If we want something more cerebral, I think we'll have to wait for the next ST series next year. Or is it after next year..? For the movies, expect action, though I do hope we have some moments of plot building fed in there. Edited December 14, 2015 by Thom Quote
Dynaman Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 WTF is that? Who does that appeal to? I'm not even a Trek fan, but just no. That is so wrong. I like it. Granted they might be showing ALL the action scenes in that one clip and I have never been in the "JJ ruined Star Trek" camp, Gene Roddenberry nearly did though. Quote
derex3592 Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 ..... that's really all i have to say about that... Quote
Chewie Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 I meant it ruined the trailer. Sorry. It looked interesting, curious to know who they're fighting and surprised they already killed the Enterprise(3 movies in) from the look of it. Quote
Mommar Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 I don't know what you call it. The lighting, or cinematography, or whatever. But EVERYTHING looked terrible. Killing the Enterprise in the third movie is what they do. They killed the original one in the third movie as well. Hopefully to make way for a ship that looks better. I was hoping this movie would be better given Simon Pegg's involvement in the script, despite the fact the studio pushed back and didn't want as much Science Fiction as he was going for, but this trailer was completely unappealing to me as a Star Trek fan. And I'm not sure who it would appeal to, really. Independence Day 2 and TMNT were more appealing trailers to me. Quote

mechaninac Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 JJ-Prise trashed = refit.... ...there's hope. ... and there's also the possibility that any refit will be even more of an eyesore than the current JJ-Prise. Quote
TangledThorns Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 It's a strange world when the trailer for the ID4 sequel feels more like a Star Trek movie then the actual Star Trek Trailer. THIS! I don't expect much from the ID4 sequel but I just know it'll be fun, worth my money, and won't get me into a nerd rage. Quote
CoreyD Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 ... and there's also the possibility that any refit will be even more of an eyesore than the current JJ-Prise. Holy cow, look at this leaked refit concept art! http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/s--a8XQhw7q--/18lsjl7zu3nqljpg.jpg jk Quote
Primus1X Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Beastie Boys throughout the whole thing ruined it for me. That uniform Kirk and some of the crew are wearing looks strangely familiar. Quote
