You should pimp it a little more, get a logo on there or something!

Yeah, but I'm too tired for the extra effort this evening. Just wanted to get the ball rolling.

 

[redwax]

Didn't know Michelle Yeoh was going to part of this; now I know I'll be watching.

 

[Lucas]

When is this even coming out? I'm getting so confused.

 

[Alex Vojacek]

Yet another one?. I didn't knew ! Discovery is called?, I hope it does not involve yet another villain to defeat.. it is getting repetitive now, they need to come up with a new danger, maybe a global cataclismic event, a new quadrant..

Just a couple of teaser trailers so far...

 

[Doctor Omega]

The Klingons have been redesigned. This is set ten years before Kirk.

TOS

And here's how they look, ten years earlier, in Discovery...

Canon screwed up already.

Ah, the perils of prequels!

 

[Alex Vojacek]

LOL, that's not slightly different, that's a whole new species !

Michael Ansara looked great in any kind of role:)

And what a voice... :)

Anyone know the basic premise?

I know it's set ten years before Kirk's five year mission and I've read somewhere that it involves an event mentioned in the original series.

Doug Jones is apparently playing a new alien.

I also gather that the ship has a captain (Yeoh) but they're like a background character or something (like Bartlet was supposed to be in The West Wing before they abandoned that idea).

 

[Doctor Omega]

Those New Look KLINGONS!


Well, they are certainly different....






So, what does everyone think?

Rubbish?

Or brilliant?

And what about the continuity?

I mean, in ten years time, during Kirk's era, they somehow metamorphose into this...



Do you care about the contradiction?

Does continuity matter?

 

[Doctor Omega]

I just wish it wasn't a prequel, full stop.

Then we could have just called them a new race encountered in the 25th century, long after Picard's era.

Instead of yet another version of the ever-changing Klingons.

 

[Doctor Omega]

Or just okay?

 

[Hux]

I'm not too fussed. As long as they're Klingon in nature and maintain that two dimensional warrior culture, it doesn't matter too much if they have five head ridges or twelve.

Even in the TNG era, some Klingons had wavy horizontal lines while others had vertical bumps.

As long as they growl, drink blood wine and constantly bang on about honour... I'm happy.

 

[Hux]

I like the general look (has an appropriate retro feel) but does anyone else think the special effects in the video are a bit... meh.

 

[Doctor Omega]

The DISCOVERY Characters!


Thoughts on the casting of Doug Jones as Lt. Saru?
