"Star Trek Beyond" - in which 'Enterprise' is destroyed and the crew are captured (again)
The Guardian ^ | 12/15

Posted on 12/15/2015 12:10:45 PM PST by pabianice

The trailer looks like a mish-mash of outtakes. Looks like a remake of ST3, with different aliens substituting for Klingons.

I wonder if Abrams is going to remake all 10 pre-Abrams movies. How challenging. And that horrible soundtrack!

A standard Trek trope, and not just TOS.

Why not? After all the last one was a shameless ripoff of Star Trek II. I love space shows generally but the Abrams STs suck.

I miss the old days when the Enterprise kicked butt.

As I have watched the occasional Star Trek episode and movie over the years I’ve often wondered when the hell are they going to finally fix the damned shields?

It’s amazing they can still get insurance on the Enterprise.

I guess they don’t believe in guns or shields anymore.

That’s why they have to keep changing ships. Scotty wouldn’t put up with that crap and would have that those shields fixed if he had to trade a 400 year old bottle of schottish liquor to make it happen.

Worse is the director from Fast and Furious is.

So a director who specializes in car chase movies is making Star Trek. Gee what could go wrong?

Bleh, it will be another forgettable CGI crap fest.

I thought Voyager’s (future) anti-Borg armor was pretty cool....

At any rate, my recollection is that forty years ago it was the damned transporter, and then twenty years later it was the damned holodeck that caused all the problems.

Wasn't a young James T. Kirk driving a '65 Corvette?

That was sweet.
I’ve always loved Tony Todd’s work.

Don’t blame Abrams for this one, his name is still attached as producer, but they got the guy who did those inane “Fast & Furious” remakes to direct this.
