It has a name: Star Trek: Into Darkness.

That's fine. As long as we don't have magic beings who summon up goats and belly dancers by shaking their noses or blinking their eyes, I'm cool with it.

but what if the klingons are dressed as elves and fairy princesses?

Then you're probably at the wrong theater watching Hobbit.

And I wonder if fans will freak out if the nu-Trek Klingons have head ridges, as that was sort of a canon thing in the TV shows.

It wasn't really canon. They used Enterprise to make it canon with that whole genetic bullshit episode instead of just saying "ok, it was the 60s and our effects weren't that good so let's just pretend".

It'll be interesting, since the ToS Klingons pretty much looked human, except for the predisposition for Stalinistic stances. It wasn't until TNG that Klingons with their own personal mountain ranges on their heads came into fashion.

Didn't we see the first Klingon with ridges in ST: The Motion Picture?

We can't really say the human Klingons are canon because Khalis, who is a long dead ancestor, had ridges.

I think the first one was in Star Trek III - the one with Jim from Taxi playing the bad guy.

No, it was The Motion Picture. If you recall, they were the first to encounter V-ger and were destroyed.

I recall nodding off a few times during that movie so could be.

You are right, and I'm wrong.

I do recall the consternation of fans who were bothered that Klingons now had mobile versions of the Alps on their heads.

i'd rather see cardassians. just as vicious and physically adept as klingons but with more cunning and a better sense of humor






("spell check" suggests i spelled "cardamons" wrong when i spelled cardassians)

It's going to be funny during the next few months, as people try to dissect what they've seen in trailers and picked up from rumor. It's like a variation on the game of Telephone. LOL

Maybe this is the episode they're going to use as the basis for the movie: "The Trouble With Tribbles"

here is IO9's take on the trailer (shhh, they think the bad guy is Khan):

Tribbles with their own galaxy crushing starship!

 

[heisenberg]

Avengers was a fail?

I hope you're referring to the Ralph Fiennes/Uma Thurman movie, The Avengers, as Avengers/Avengers Assemble was really quite the box office draw.

(I liked it, too.)

Let me rephrase that

What I meant was the movie although racked in a lot of money, it felt rushed. Compared to what I was expecting it was a tad bit disappointing but it was better than the 90s version for sure. You can't deny that the movie felt a little rushed.

Another site/forum who believe that we will see Khan and the death of Spock:

Oh God, please no.

 

[Joelist]

No, we won't. The Khan thing was debunked a while ago.

no reason to kill the messenger my man..just passing some "news"
