JJ ABRAMS Enterprise

The new trailer I saw with the new Bond Film was fantastic. It looks great and I can't wait. I was already looking forward to it just as a new Trek film, but seeing this trailer on the big screen was awesome, I really think the movie will be good.(y)thumbsup:thumbsup
 
Yup, that's the new one. I've watched it a couple times now, and the thing I love about QT is that I can slow her down and watch the footage frame by frame. :)
 
I'm not upset by a reboot what so ever. When DS9 was announced, I thought "Hmm, why is it in the TNG time line." (Wound up being my favorite Trek though) When Voyager was announced I thought "Urg, ANOTHER TNG time line." I quit watching it after season two. When Enterprise was announced I though, "Finally, not ANOTHER TNG time line." However, it WAS TNG just a few years earlier! I quit watching that too.
I'm all for a reeboot, Kirk, Spock, Apple-bridge whatever!
And I like the ship, not as much as some of the locals re-inventing it here on the board, but enough to call it a nice ship.
 
I don't have any idea what you guys are talking about " The ship doesn't look right " . It looks just like all the other ones, A pie pan on top a football with two paper towel roles on both sides.

There is a much bigger problem here.

I love Star-Trek. More than I like star wars and over the last 10 years I've just about stopped going to the movies, or even watching on dvd. After Scooby doo, Fat albert, king kong, the dukes of hazard, the monkey seen in the new Indy film, Battle star galactica, Smallville, War of the worlds, lost in space, Godzilla, Herby the love bug, and All the terrible sequels out there.

There is a much bigger problem here.

Very little of what is being done today is new in any way shape or form. Don't give me any of that " Everything has been done " bull. We're letting them get away with this ? Seriously ? , There are so many ships in the federation and so many new stories could be written, but they know people will come out and watch crap like this.

There is a much bigger problem here.

This will probably be a great movie, and it probably wouldn't make any difference if you changed all the names. It's almost like everyone is terrified to do anything new. I heard somewhere this is going to be the biggest budget star trek movie ever, and this is what we get. Some one should have to pay for this. My friends are probably going to drag me to see this and yes it'll be nice to see some big Sci-Fi but so much more could have been done with this money. I don't want to ruin it for anyone but they all live and I don't think they are going to blow up another enterprise on the big screen for a long time.

There is a much bigger problem here.

There are so many wonderful sci-fi book on the shelves, the writers don't have to do anything to them, But when great stories do get made into movies ( A.K.A. My Favorite book ever, I ROBOT ) they turn it into crap. An we let them, worse , we reward them. This makes me sick.
 
Watching the trailer frame by frame, in between the woman screaming and the Kelvan being shot to pieces, there is a scene of Kirk swinging a PHASER around and firing it. Not to clear a shot, but we see it none the less. Also at the end, he's wearing a yellow tunic too.

yeah, I was waiting for the HD trailer to come up to see if we could get a clear grab of that phaser shot, but there seemed to be too much motion blur. =(

And can anyone confirm if the item Spock is holding in his hand in the shot with Wynona Ryder really a communicator? If it is, it doesn't look like it flips open (based on what I can see). :eek
 
Yep, gold tunic is on when he says "buckle up".

I have a feeling that all black blaster he swings around with is a klingon disruptor. Just a hunch.

The grips we see in a few holsters, and in the shot of Spock "bringing down the hammer", behind him there is a man holding a silver blaster, I have a feeling the new phasers are silver.
 
The pistol that Kirk has in that one shot looks Klingon to me, too.

The shot of Spock & Amanda on Vulcan shows him with an Away Team belt with the phaser (silver) on one side and a holster for his communicator on the other.

I also noticed a short sleeved version of the duty uniform on the helmsman (helmswoman?) in one shot on the bridge when Sulu is away.

Oh, and I fully expect the license plates from the Vette to be showing up here soon, too (both front and back).

p.s. Oh, and I'm still having a hard time calling these guys "Kirk" and "Spock", but Quinto sure does channel his inner Nimoy in a few shots...
 
Re: JJ AMBRANS Enterprise

I agree..I dont like it HOWEVER if you look at Jaffries unused designs its doubtful he would poo poo it as it looks like some of his earlier designs.
I thinks its horrid however.

Yes. And there's probably a good reason that those designs went unused.

The thing I just cannot wrap my brain around is how this version could even, in the most remote pocket universe, eventually become anything we've seen in the ensuing series (including the motion pictures all the way up through Voyager). It just doesn't make any sense at all. Aside from the blocky saucer section, this design appears MORE advanced than any of the ships supposedly to follow.

I've said it elsewhere... I think they're pushing around lines that don't need to be pushed around.

And yes... I'm making pre-judgements before I even see it "in action"... I'm fine with that.

That ain't my Trek. So I think I'll pass.

At one time, Trek changed the audience.
It wasn't for everyone, but it grew.
It asked that people think a little more.
So ratings were not great for the original series, it took time for it to find it's audience later in syndication.

Now the audience has changed Trek.
