BLUMENKOHL 1,068 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 So after ALL the hype about Cumberbatch's acting, it looks like he is pulling the same manner of speech and acting as "Hijacked Julian Bashir" from DS9's season 1 "The Passenger." Also: nice nod to Blade Runner around 20 seconds in. The random shot of lingerie Alice Eve is awkward. I want to bury my hand in my face awkward.

JoeinAR 1,949 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 well there is no emotional attachment to this turkey legged ship.btw remember in ST 2009 how it only took seconds to get to Vulcan but coming back it took a long time, why was that?

Jay 37,370 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 It didn't take seconds to get to Vulcan. It simply didn't show how long it took. Remember, Kirk got knocked out, and we he wakes up it doesn't show how long he was knocked out for. Could have been minutes, or hours, or days.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 True, but the editing suggests it was very fast.It did not feel like Kirk lay in sick bay for 4 days. It actually felt like very little time had passed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 well there is no emotional attachment to this turkey legged ship.I still remember the first time I saw Search For Spock on TV. Even though I had not seen TOS at that time, I did feel the enormity of the Enterprise being destroyed. Ans at the end of The Voyage Home, when they get their new ship, it's a genuine goosebump moment (only the only scene in the film were the score works)Seeing the D crash like that in Generations was like seeing an old friend die....

JoeinAR 1,949 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 agreed.I like the 2009 ship, it's good in it's own way but past creators of the Enterprise purposely chose NOT to do what the 2009 filmmakers did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 That shot does proof that at least J.J. is honouring TOS's traditions of featuring women in sexy clothes and scenario's. Something TNG from the politically correct 80's did far too few times. (Thank God for Troi's tight fitting uniform...)she is pretty there, or pretty sexy there.She could do what she wants with me..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry B 50 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Jason, maybe it's because Alice Eve's poise and expression seem to say literally nothing. It's like Abrams told her, "Your motivation for this scene is that we need to have a piece of meat in the trailer, so just stand there and look pretty for a second. Cut. That's a wrap for today. Tomorrow we'll do the dubbing sessions and get in a line about 'outnumbered, outmanned and outgunned.' "Just a comment on the trailer, of course. I remain hopeful that all this stuff won't seem terrible in the context of the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
