I don't know what to say about that trailer. Very little of any real interest in there, but it wasn't offensive or anything.

Meaning it could be literally anything - though I'm pretty sure it's not great Star Trek.

I really dont get the design choices. I mean they could have at least used the JJTrek uniforms, if they wanted a more modern design. If this is set 10 years before Kirk and Spock, it means the Enterprise is already in service for 10 years, so why do they need a totally different uniform design?


I'm willing to give this a try, but it seems to me that we're in for a third Trek timeline.

Seems to be what I expected. Not Star Trek... don't really care for what the captain has between his, her or its legs though. It just looks too flashy/plastic for my idea of Star Trek.

They can't even be arsed to make the timeline somewhat plausible. Shame really, I would have liked a decent Star Trek instead of re-watching the same material.

The moment you realize that Seth McFarlane's The Orville, looks more Star Trek than this. Laughing

What's going around is that they are not the Klingons we know, these are ancient ones woken up from cryo and see the Federation as an invasion force. But yeah, design could have been better.

The male actors all seem fine. The female actors ... dear fucking lord. It's one thing to want female characters at the front but at least pick ones that don't sound more wooden than Pinokkio's dick!

Other than that, the Klingons do look better than the ridiculous pictures we saw before but they really did dial them up to 11, didn't they? They clearly wanted them to be a real menace but in doing so, they also utterly destroyed what the Klingon's were about - there lore shows they were far more than just warriors but the warriors basically killed off the other castes including the artists, doctors, scientists, etc.

TOS was pretty fucking PC for its time.

This pic is the only thing I've seen so far that I like.

Also, the season will be split in two, TWD-style:

I wish it was more about exploring space and unknown and less about personal fucking drama. That shlock Orvill had me more interested because of it than this with pewpew explosions and OMG so much feels.

I could be wrong but I don't think this will have individual episodes/storylines when the crew visit planets etc. Which is what I'd prefer Sad

Although it is called Discovery so it's still possible.

It's a trailer and the trend is to show action in trailers. It doesn't mean it'll be constant action.

I quite like that uniform - first positive thing I get to say about this monstrosity.

And I'm sure they'll go the Battlestar Galactica route with semi-continuous story lines - you know, the style that killed off Star Gate?
