That sounded a lot like Patrick Stewart narrating, to me anyways.

Japanese trailer has a significant extra bit at the end if you've seen the original movies. Spoiler alert.

oh god... really? seriously they're going to remake ST:II?
FML.
they have a real chance to reboot and think of a new story... ugh. really... really... sad face.

[DeleriousZ]

Can anyone tell me who the villain is in this one? Looks like he's wearing starfleet garb in a few of the shots?

[Seth1968]

It's going to be tough to top Star Trek 2009.

Kirk: Who was that pointy eared bastard?

Bones: I don't know, but I like him.

Start Trek 2 was probably the best one ever.

In this alternate timeline, this "new" Khan looks a lot darker.

I love all star trek. WHat was good about the first "reboot" was that it stayed true to character. They all pulled off their former traits.

Loved it.

I'm not sure how I like the "apocalyptic" style of these new ones, but meh, It's hollywood.

[Mibz]

I'm fucking stoked for this. 2 was easily one of the best ST movies and I think this will be even better.

EDIT: I think Khan in the original was the stereotypical villain for that era, and we're gonna get something more contemporary. They obviously have to ramp him up to do that. Again, stoked. I might just go watch 2 and 3 again this weekend.

Rumoured to be Khan. as in Star Trek 2, the Wrath of.

This is a alternate timeline, so who knows where he will come from. Not from Ceti Alpha 5 I'm sure lol. Maybe something along the story line of Star Trek the Original Series "Space Seed"??

Would be interesting if they exiled him to Ceti Alpha after this movie.

Well it kinda has to be similar to the movie unless they're recreating the radiation scene for something totally different. Maybe they'll combine the episode and the movie into a giant Khan timeline. I'd never seen the episode before the movie so it sucked feeling like I should know who he is, I can't imagine they'd do the same in this one. Of course remaking Khan kinda forces another movie. Which also makes me excited.

That's what is neat about alternate timelines. You often end up in the same place through weird and alternate means. Like a destiny.

I do feel it's too early for this Spock/Kirk scene, they do not yet share the comradery to make the scene powerful.

Anxious to see what they do!

I'm wondering if the hands don't belong to Spock/Kirk though... just a teaser to get interest, but alternate timeline and all...

What someone from IGN thinks.


There are some key difference that are worth pointing out. Firstly, it looks like Spock or another science officer (Bones?) is the one of the outside of the chamber, making the gesture of solidarity. So is it a simple reversal of Wrath of Khan, with Kirk being placed in the perilous position of facing a no-win scenarios head-on? Maybe. But if I had to guess, I think this might come from early on in the film (Abrams's last Star Trek film, if you remember, opened with a fairly traumatic prologue of its own), and the hand meeting Spock's belongs to Cumberbatch's Gary Mitchell, who doesn't die, of course, but is reborn with psionic abilities and comes back to exact his vengeance on the crew who left him for dead.

[hampstor]

Holy fuck :eek:

I'm hoping it's a reboot with elements from the original and not remaking every movie going forward. Personally, the worst was Star Trek IV: Save the Whales and hope they don't go anywhere near it.

I just saw the first one (first one for me being the one from couple yrs ago lol) and I watched this too.... The last few seconds is different, but doesn't spoil anything for me as I have no idea abt any of the other movies haha

[Vagabond142]

Doesn't matter to me if it's a remake or not. Like a goat beating its head into a wall, this really does look awesome :D

That's just a comedy with original crew.

Before the JJ reboot come along, I think only even # movies are good (except Nemesis).

The teaser looks awesome but I'm not sure if story is solid. That scene is a misdirection I think but not sure that's a good one to make people think this is related to Khan. Or may be just the birth of a super human race.

[Inzane]

I sure hope the Kahn rumors are false.

There's no reason to go back there. Wrath of Kahn was a great film that still stands up today. And Mr. Corinthian Leather has forever left his mark on the title role.

I'd really prefer they explore something else.


PS - How much longer is this 3D BS fad going to go on? Does EVERYTHING need to be made in 3D??? :dunno:

[Mibz]

3D is a lot less gimmicky than it used to be. I'm not saying everything needs to be 3D, but I definitely don't see a reason to complain about it.

[Bladeh]

Benedict Cumberbatch is an awesome actor, I'm sure he will pull off Khan no doubt.

Damn, with that name, how could someone NOT be awesome at everything?

[in*10*se]

i don't know if any of the other trekkies realize...

the rebooted star trek is kirks first time in command w/ the enterprise.
So lets say year 0....

the original star trek series... with william shatner is year 0...

Star trek II: wrath of khan is set 15 years after kirk abandons him in the original series... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khan_Noonien_Singh



so what you're trying to tell me is.... the rebooted star trek just jumped fucking from year 0.... to year 15? really... really now... :dunno: :thumbsdow

i'm sure the movie will be good... but lets have some semblance of continuity in the star trek world if you're just making khan appear out of no where with no back ground story for the rebooted fans...

[Xtrema]

reboot = anything goes from here forward with no continuity of past series needed.

Background can be given in 1st 15mins of movie if needed. Just like the last movie.

[Markll7]

Hmm Karl Urban said Cumberbatch is Gary Mitchell during the press releases for Dredd. If you look closely during the trailers he's wearing a Starfleet uniform so it does match the history of Gary Mitchell. I highly doubt the studio would put Kahn out so fast given how young the franchise is.

[Tik-Tok]

I know who it is... Harry Mudd :rofl:

Being left on a planet with thousands of robots that acted like his wife drove him insane.

looking forward to it

[jampack]

First 9 minutes of the movie will be shown prior to The Hobbit movie in IMAX only. I wonder how much it would tell people about the villain. I will watch the Hobbit next week so we'll see. :D

Not only that, the blond chick in the trailer looks an awful lot like the blond psychiatrist from that Gary Mitchell episode. The one he referred to as the "walking freezer unit".

I was the first to post about the new Trek movie, and then Rage fucked it all up with some special effects comment.lol

[DRKM]

I could not stand the first star trek (2009). I found it incredably difficult to watch, every second there was some obscene action happening. Seriously, its ok to have scences without something exploding.

I hope they figure it out in this one.

For a movie about Star Trek, where it's an entire universe to explore, why does it look like so much of it takes place on Earth? :(

The villain was very well played.

You can pre purchase IMAX tickets through the cineplex site for any day of the week, pre assigned seats and all.

You can also pre purchase avx, or dbox seats too but you ll have to show up early for good seats.

IMAX is recommended for this one.

[HHURICANE1]

Already got my ticket for Tuesday. Hopefully they toned down the lens flare this time. It was so damn annoying last movie.

[JAYMEZ]

Saw it last night in the Imax , good watch! I liked it! Ordered online , no line or wait. :thumbsup:

[Markll7]

Awesome awesome movie. I have high hopes for Star Wars given how well JJ has done with Star Trek.

I'm surprised that they pulled the khan card out so fast

[JAYMEZ]

^^ Ya me to! But it was well done!

[Vagabond142]

Online ordered for IMAX at 2220 hours tonight :D Granted, it's a close-to-the-side seat, but with IMAX it doesn't really matter as the screen is so damned big anywhere you sit XD

One of the most painless transactions I've done, tbh. Click, click, type in account info, click, select seat, click, done. :dunno:

[89coupe]

Just finished seeing it, excellent movie, surpassed the first one. My daughter said it was better then Ironman 3.

[JRSC00LUDE]

^ Then Ironman 3 what?

Seriously though, it is really better than the first one? I actually really enjoyed the first one but in my opinion, all the trailers for this one just make it look like an overdone mess.

I hope you're right!

[Boat]

Saw it last night, excellent movie. I think it was better than the first - You are more connected with the characters. I may be a little biased as I re-watched the first one last week however.

I would also say it was better than iron man 3

[RickDaTuner]

Definitely better than iron man 3

[benyl]

Pretty good movie, although predictable.

As one of Beyond's most unabashed geeks, I have the following review of Star Trek Into Darkness:

Stark Trek is Iron Man 3. Star Trek is the Star Trek Into Darkness movie.

He did seem to over enunciate at times, but I think it was meant more for dramatic effect than anything. Specific lines where he did this:

"Now... shall. we. BEGIN..."

"No ship... should go down.. without.. her.. CAPTAIN!"

etc etc

Plus, I really enjoyed the role reversal that was played upon at the end of reactor scene.

Haha! Probably uses that line on the chicks.

'Now shall we BEGIN!"

Really enjoyed it too.

Mind blown. What a great movie. Now gonna go watch the first one. Had no idea Star Trek was so good haha

[jampack]

A+++ Movie. Absolutely great! :thumbsup:

[HHURICANE1]

Way better than I thought it would be, better than the first one IMHO. They toned down the lens flare and it was way better to watch than the first one. Could still do without the 3D though. I don't think it really adds to the story.

It was a pretty good action movie.... but as a Star Trek movie, it sucked pretty bad. I grew up watching TNG and Voyager, and it simply doesn't compare. There's SO MUCH in the Star Trek universe to use and they just don't.

As a Trekkie, I was let down.

Enterprise never even fired a shot the whole movie...

JJ's take on the 2009 reboot is pretty much the same. I knew that is the case during his interview on Daily Show by basically slipping up and saying it's not for Trekkies but normal people before he knew he fucked up and trying to take it all back.

Regarding your spoiler tag, isn't that what the Enterprise has always favoured? If you watched TNG you know that Piccard was never the instigator...

I agree with your sentiments, however. It was a great movie in basically every respect. The visuals were fantastic, acting was great, the plotline was easy to follow and felt like it carried purpose. Awesome movie.

Awesome STAR TREK movie? Maybe not. Not nearly enough philosophy. A welcome addition to the universe, but for real Star Trek I'd sooner load up TNG than Into Darkness.

[Vagabond142]

For real Star Trek, the last 3 seasons of DS9 > all :)

That said, I've seen Into Darkness twice now and it's been spectacular both times. First time was a "holy FUCK what a movie!!!" and second was "Damn! Awesome movie and I also was able to see the little easter eggs people were talking about!"

Overall, after much thought, as a MOVIE, I would give Into Darkness :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: / 5

As a Star Trek movie, and understanding that it is a rebooted, alternate universe, I would give it :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:.5 /5

[Inzane]

I FINALLY got to see this movie last night. *Spoilers* (sorta) below.

Overall i loved it. But I have a few complaints.

While I mentioned in an earlier post I would be disappointed if the villain rumors were true, my feeling was still with a rebooted timeline there is no reason to revisit all the same prior events and characters. But anyway, they did so that leads me to...

Why the fuck is the villain suddenly British? He was a Sikh. The changed timeline AFTER the events at the beginning of the last film could explain a different scenario for this villain being discovered, but not a change in his heritage.

Along similar lines, why does Carol Marcus now speak with a british accent?

How did the ships suddenly end up in our solar system at the end of the movie, and falling into earth orbit? The enterprise was at the edge of federation space on the edge of the neutral zone. When it fled into warp it was overtaken within 30-60 seconds and dropped out of warp. (I don't recall any sequence of the ships getting back into warp again after that before the final showdown) So we're supposed to believe their ships can go between Earth and the edge of their territory in a matter of a minute or two??? (major plot hole here, unless I'm forgetting something)

I could list some other minor quibbles but those were the major ones that stood out.

All I have is that they got knock out of warp heading toward earth. So there's some leeway that they can reached earth at knock out point. And really, this movie ain't for Trekkies so these technical points will be overlooked/underexplained.

British as villain plays better on the international market. The fact that you get better actors pool is just a bonus.
