Film Star Trek 2

[MYstIC G]

Haven't been paying attention to what's going into the sequel but this popped up on my browse of the interwebs and peaked my interest: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/movies/news/a379377/benedict-cumberbatchs-star-trek-2-role-revealed-spoilers.html

Spoiler

Sherlock KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Any opinions from the Trek/Sherlock fans?

 

[BloodOmen]

Can't wait tbh, really enjoyed the first (of the modern ones) - can't really comment on Benedict tho, never really watched Sherlock.. maybe I should tho?

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

He's good in Sherlock. I saw him pop up on the credits on IMDb a little while back. Looking forward to ST2, I think there were a lot of delays while JJ Abrahms waited until he was happy with the story.

Well it obviously won't be the same plot even if it features the same characters, as WoK needs the original "Space Seed" episode to work (and a gap of about 15 years).

Spoiler

Will Cumberbatch do it in a Ricardo Montalban Mexican accent? That would be brilliant.

They could just base it on Balance of Terror instead then. Same shit

 

[Raven]

I thought the first (2nd) one was shit...so was the original Star Trek, imo it only got good with the next generation.

I liked the new 1st film, looking forward to the next one. It would be nice if we had a new TV series too, not like the facepalm that was Enterprise though.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Thing is though, seriously speaking, this is a reboot in a different universe altogether. So Khan might be part of the enterprise crew, then sell them out, or whatever floats the JJ boat

Raven; i liked enterprise fine enough. More so then voyager atleast.

 

[Wij]

What? Wrath of Khan is better than anything star trek related that came after it. TV or film.

 

[old.Tohtori]

I wasn't talking about wrath of khan at all

I said that we have no idea of Khans role, if he even appears, in this remade universe and that i enjoyed enterprise more then voyager.

Then I was replying to Raven

Well we know a bit. [nerd alert] The point of divergence for the new Trek Universe is around the time of Kirk's birth, Kahn and his people are from the Eugenics wars long before this, so even in the new Universe he'd still be on the Botany Bay, lost in interstellar space somewhere, at least at the point of departure (Nero's arrival) in the last movie [/nerd alert].

Awww....now i feel like you don't wub me anymore

True, was just throwing it out there that Khan could very well be some nerdy computergeek who gets supermutant powers as he works with brainworms onboard the enterprise, Kirk getting all uppity about his human experiments and things going tits up due to that. Hey, it's JJ abrams afterall, anything is possible

 

[MYstIC G]

Well, not really. As DaGaffer says only from the point at which Nero appeared.

 

[Zede]

And it looks like Nimoy is going to be in it too. Which is ridiculous, a few paragraphs of future spoliers from him, 3/4 of all shennanigans can be avoided. No Khan, no other ripped storylines plze.

Ye Khannae be serious captain!

 

[Tom]

The Wrath of Khan is a fantastic film and anyone who says otherwise should have things placed in their ears.

I'm looking forward to this new film. The 2009 film is fantastic (the only bit I don't like is the "punch it, now now now" bit at the end). I really want to see more of McCoy, the bloke who plays him has him down perfectly.

 

[cHodAX]

The first JJ Abrams one was a clusterfuck, I won't be paying to see the second.

 

[Shagrat]

I dunno I quite like the first one as a kind of alternate world spinoff

That is the only way it can be looked at and even then...

The red orb thing, just killed it for me, he took the nonsensical ending for Alias and just reused it in a different manner. Horrible story only held together by some good actors.

[JBP|]

I would have liked a redo of Star trek the movie, think it could be quite awesome with modern sfx and linking in Vger with the Borg as in Star Trek The Return

But no - it's not the same universe. It's not the same at all, so other than a few spoilers he can give re technology (for instance, the trans warp beaming in the first)
Looking forward to 2. Thoroughly enjoyed the first and the majority of the actors really caught the mannerisms and attitudes of the original actors well, so it was instantly believable.

 

[Edmond]

I loved the first one, it was the first film i actually brought on Blu-Ray, rather than just downloading it (saw it at the pics too). Tom is right too, Karl Urban was great as Bones

 

[Scouse]

I enjoyed the movie. As a Star Trek film it's a total clusterfuck however. It's blatantly not Star Trek.

I'm with you - I wouldn't pay to see it at the cinema but my missus, being a girl, has no standards when it comes to films that completely betray their roots (i.e. Rodenberry). So I'm going to go along and then I'll be there when her euphoria makes her horny shortly afterward
