Analyzing The First ‘Star Trek 2′ Teaser Trailer - What Can We Expect From J.J. Abrams's Upcoming Ma

Ignoring the three-frame clip J.J. Abrams jokingly brought to Conan, the very first official footage from Star Trek Into Darkness was released by Paramount Pictures this morning in a one-minute teaser trailer.

Even with less than 60 seconds of actual footage, there is a lot to take in and dissect, beyond the special effects heavy visuals. So, let’s analyze what scenes and plot points were showcased in our first look at Star Trek 2.

( Guess which villain Cumberbatch isCollapse )

very informative for a ST n00b like me. I expect CB to reach Loki's level of fame on Tumblr.

DDDD: But I only want Kirk/Spock fanfic. I'm counting on this movie to spawn new fanfic I can read. I love Benny, but I'm pretty sure I won't be shipping him with Kirk....OH WAIT, did you mean RPF fic? NVM. That's okay, then. :D

Alice Eve kinda creeps me out sometimes
like in everything i've seen her in she has this empty glazed look in her eyes like she's not there....
like a stepford wife
nabuch 6th-Dec-2012 05:15 pm (UTC)
I know what you mean. She would be perfect playing android or literally a Stepford wife.

OT but I keep getting ads for Zulily on ONTD and I thought they were just a regular clothing site because the ads I saw just had like, coats or boots. And then I get there and it's all children's clothing. I feel sufficiently dumb.

i'm so excited <33333

but lmao my friend is so bitter about st for some reason. i reblogged a gifset from the teaser, and like two minutes later she made a passive aggressive post under a cut about how much she hates star trek and tagged it with 'cutting it because i'll get yelled at otherwise'

ummmm sis if you really think i or anybody else cares about whether you like st or not, your brain is in the wrong place rn.

tumblr savior.

no one has any reason to whine after it came into existence.
bob_always_wins 6th-Dec-2012 05:19 pm (UTC)
lmaooo the sad thing is i think she uses it already, so idek why she's even complaining. i told her that she likes what she likes and that it's nbd, and she never replied. idk what's up her ass.
wauwy 6th-Dec-2012 05:24 pm (UTC)
tumblr savior doesn't block everything. Hiddleston and Cumberbatch will break through no matter what, for instance. You could be following two cake blogs and it would still happen.

i don't know, the scene with the touching hands is too wrath of Khan, i am not convinced he plays Gary. Plus all those latino actors that auditioned. Tell me they were not looking for this generation's Ricardo Montalbán
jello404 6th-Dec-2012 05:18 pm (UTC)
I dont understand why people keep thinking he khan. They said he wasn't and didn't want the backlash that comes along with it.

As an old school Star Trek fan, I just can not get into these re-boots at all. I kind of pretend the series stopped at First Contact and ignore everything else. Then again, it might be burn out, I have all of Star Trek TNG and TOS memorized, I can tell what episode it is, from 1 screenshot or 1 second of play.
wauwy 6th-Dec-2012 05:22 pm (UTC)
You should pretend it stopped at All Good Things, tbh. First Contact had some okay moments, mainly the zephram cochrane stuff, but they replaced Real Picard with Bizarro Rage Picard and it was overall a lame b-grade action flick with a cast way too old to be playing action hero.

And the Borg jumped the shark with Descent. They ended with I, Borg.
theratwhispers 6th-Dec-2012 05:23 pm (UTC)
I like First Contact as a cheesy popcorn flick. It's a guilty pleasure, so that's why I ended it there.
jordoofus 6th-Dec-2012 06:37 pm (UTC)
I LOVE THIS COMMENT. All Good Things makes me weep, and as much as I love First Contact/have a giant poster in my room etc, I agree with awkward rage Picard- I just love it for muh boi Zephram Cochrane being a badass.
adigallia 6th-Dec-2012 05:47 pm (UTC)
I'm with you. I love TNG and TOS. My sister and I have a game that whenever we flip past TNG on TV, we have a race to see who can identify the episode faster. It usually takes us about 5 seconds.

JJ's first Trek movie was a fun action flick, but it was Star Trek in name only. I hate the whole AU universe since it prevents stories from happening in the actual canon universe. Grumble grumble grumble. I do appreciate that it has restored interest in Star Trek, but now they should take that interest and make real Star Trek again.

This is me.
jello404 6th-Dec-2012 05:15 pm (UTC)
Ugh do we have to wait what...5 months? UGH! Excited for the press your as well. More cumberbatch interviews! And im sure all three leads will be together 24/7. PintoBatch ftw

Last of all, I think BCum is playing an original character. A Starfleet officer (hence "taking down the fleet from within") who is actually secretly genetically engineered (like Khan) with an unknown grudge against Kirk. Obnoxious because they already did the vengeance thing with Nero in the last movie, but whateva.

I'm basing his not being Khan on an angry online exchange I had with Roberto Orci where I challenged him for whitewashing probably THE most iconic non-white sci-fi villain, and he sarcastically replied he and the other writers were inspired by Piss Christ, implying that actually whitewashing Khan would be like shitting all over something important and sacred, which it would be.

Still, I really resent this trolling because whitewashing is real and no joke. Manipulating and not caring about people's justifiable anger just to create buzz and because they're in the minority is pretty fucked up.







and those are my thoughts on yaoi.
jello404 6th-Dec-2012 05:22 pm (UTC)
I refuse to believe JJ would sit his. I'm going to believe when he said Benedict wasn't khan because if he is...good lord. I just fuckig CAN'T. And I don't even understand how studios still get away with white washing. It's fuckig disgusting.

snortingcoke 6th-Dec-2012 07:20 pm (UTC)
perhaps he's a mix of a few original series characters, whipped into something new. idk, i just don't think jj would sign off on whitey mcwhite playing khan. and if he is khan i will pee on everything they love.
