I don't think I can take another Star Trek reboot...

 

[Elixer]

Looks to be about what I expected, and it being pay-2-view, it will fail.

pay2view??

also, guess no Star Trek: Capt Worf series any time soon?

 

[Sonikku]

I wish the models and interiors/uniforms looked more retro ToS rather than Abrams verse. I think they're going to cost themselves a lot of oldschool fans starved for some classic trek in the over saturated sexy action thriller that is about all that exists these days.

They will require you to subscribe to the CBS service, not on network TV.

And mentioned on the thread more than once I'd assume.

No shit! That was painful, it's like the franchise hallmark now and there can't be a scene without it. And lens flare aside, that still looked awful.

Abrams sucks and they decided to copy him? Fail. I'm not even going to bother finding alternative means to watch this crap.

 

[Craig234]

Looks interesting and worth watching but some real crap in it.

 

[Malogeek]

WTF is CBS service. They have their own streaming? What a stupid idea and will kill this very quickly.

Star Trek: The Lense Flare Continues

Sigh. Yep. And they went obscenely overboard with the orange and blue color scheme. Seriously did they have any other colors in that trailer at all?

 

[MaxDepth]

Throw me on the pile too.
I'm glad though to see that no one is complaining about a female Captain and, who I assume to be, a first officer.

And Klingons? Okay, even more devolved than ST:TNG... Makes me wonder how they could even build a interstellar warship, let alone have manufacturing capabilities. Oh, and space is not that orange. And...

So just ignore Roddenberry's Star Trek completely? No, wait! We can always watch those last few episodes that were never shown.

Nope wont do

 

[Malogeek]

So the common person can't watch this on their TV? Doesn't seem to be a premium channel on my Comcast cable and I doubt there's many devices with a "CBS AllAccess" app?

The Kilingons look like lizards. This is going to crash and burn so hard.

In the future the conservatives have died off otherwise there would be no future, everyone knows this.

I am amazed at all the criticism and scrutiny a new show can receive before its even viewed. This thread is just one small example of it, but all across the internet people are expecting it to fail. often for completely opposite reasons.
I've spent a little of the past week reading articles about this show and also previous series. People have been quite cruel to something that is supposed to be fun and adventurous.

(Long read, but very much worth your time, trust me.)

If the new series in anything less than spectacular then people are probably gonna kill themselves. And thats kinda sad when you consider the whole premise of every series in movie is that humanity can move on after failures and learn from mistakes and still enjoy the exploration of new ideas, and possibly challenge old ideas.

On the one hand, I agree that it needs to actually air before we can lob too much criticism at it. Even then, hell, most of S1 of TNG was terrible.

On the other hand, the show's producers aren't doing it any favors. They say it's set in the Prime universe, but everything about it feels like it's meant to be Star Trek 2009: The Series. And Star Trek 2009 is a popcorn film, not an ongoing sci-fi series. It was loud and fun, but ultimately dumb. Star Trek the TV series at its high points is about adventure and fun, but it also had serious sci-fi credentials that it earned by properly utilizing the introspective nature of the genre.

I think people have become a bit jaded with the fact that so many genre shows have been turned into expensive soap operas in the last decade. And after being off the air for 12 years, there's a real fear that the new Star Trek is going to fall into the same pit.

 

[Assimilator1]

Yea let it air before crucifying it! I really hope they do a decent job of it, been waiting 12yrs for a new ST series!

*waves to Virge* psst, we've got a SETI race going on this weekend
