That was really cool and a great re-creation of the scene from the movie but it isn't total accurate. During that scene in the movie you see a lot of the battle damage from movie 2 of the battle with Khan. In this re-creation, the ship looks brand new.

How the &@#&%*^@#% did Khan go from Indian to British!? :pinch: If indeed he is an augment, chances are he's just one of Khan's goons. Alternate timeline or not, it still doesn't explain his change of ethnicity. The events of his "demise" in 1996 are still unchanged, since they happened before Nero's arrival.

May be he migrated in the alternate timeline? :p

Yes. People seem to forget this is another timeline, where everything is different.

Actually, it's the same prime universe up until the beginning of Star Trek (2009). The moment the Narada appeared is when the alternate reality was created. Khan was born in the mid-20th century, well before the events of the movie so he was unaffected by the changes.

I highly doubt Benedict's character is Khan. It's more likely that someone else found the superhuman sleeper ship and instead of Kirk waking up Khan in the prime universe, Benedict's character was woken up to possibly work for Starfleet. I think this is where Section 31 comes into play. They probably wanted the ultimate commander and must have trained Benedict's character. And because of his superhuman intellect, he's able to learn faster and retain more information than a normal human. Why else would he be wearing a Starfleet uniform in the trailers?

I'm not sure anyone would cry over Star Trek V. The only thing that would save the movie, though, is a new plot.

I must be one of the few who actually like the 5th movie it seems. I think it went close to the heart of what is trek, going where no one has gone before, first ship to make it through the great barrier and all that. Plus I liked how focused on the characters and their relationships with each other are, plus seeing key moments for each of their pasts that defined them in life. I also really liked Kirks understanding that he'd die alone in the end, I thought it was a very strong message.

On the Klingons.

"We shot some stuff that had klingons in it and then we ended up cutting the scene so it's a deleted scene on the dvd but they are back in this one. Their role in this is definitely adversarial and you'll see how that plays out. But you don't have to know about any preexisting stories to watch this film.

Star Trek Into Darkness is easily this year's most highly anticipated sci-fi movie, and it has today been confirmed that it will be released in the UK one week earlier on May 9th, 2013. It is still set to open in North America on the 17th as of right now, while it becomes yet another blockbuster to come out in the UK on a Thursday instead of Friday (Iron Man 3's release was recently brought forward to April 25th).

After watching the latest trailer again I am really starting to believe that this has something to do with khan. Watch the trailer and begin to really look start at the 1:40 mark. You'll see that (I believe Spock and Kirk) are doing the Vulcan hand sign between glass. This is just like the scene in movie 2 between Spock and Kirk when Spock is dying from radiation after fixing the warp drive.

Here is the one from Fandango

    • Never used the G7 Pro, but I've never had a good experience with that style of d-pad and fighting games.
    • And I just bought a seat cushion for my mesh chair. The chair feels nice but the first time I sat in it with boxers, I realized I don't like the feel of mesh on my legs. 😂
    • "This Dell 27 inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor is really cheap after a very long time" ... Lol.
    • This Dell 27 inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor is really cheap after a very long time by Sayan Sen Recently we covered a really good deal on an AMD RX 9070 three-fan model that's available at slightly above its MSRP. If you are looking for a GPU for 1440p gaming that's around the performance of the Nvidia RTX 5070 you should most definitely check it out. Let's say that you are looking for a monitor to pair that up with too. The Samsung 49" G9 curved QD-OLED superultrawide is a good option that can provide an immersive experience. However despite being a very good deal currently (at $855), it may seem unaffordable to you, or you may simply not want to spend as much on a monitor. In that case Dell's S2725QS can be a very good option as it's on sale at the moment for its lowest price in over six months (purchase link under the specs table down below). The big highlight of the Dell S2725QS is its 27-inch IPS panel with a 3840 x 2160 (4K UHD) resolution, offering a high pixel density that can make text appear sharper while also providing plenty of screen space for productivity and media consumption. The display supports a refresh rate of up to 120Hz through both HDMI and DisplayPort, making it suitable not only for everyday desktop use but also for smoother gaming and scrolling. AMD FreeSync Premium support is included as well, helping reduce screen tearing during gaming sessions. The screen has fairly good brightness and color accuracy so you can use it for general work purpose, though photo/video editing is probably not going to be the best match for this. The technical specs of the Dell S2725QS are given in the table below: Specification Value Viewable Screen Size 27 in (68.58 cm) Screen Mode 4K UHD Maximum Resolution 3840 × 2160 Maximum Preset Resolution 3840 × 2160 @ 120 Hz Standard Refresh Rate 120 Hz Panel Technology In-plane Switching (IPS) Backlight Technology LED Edgelight System Pixel Density 163 PPI Response Time 8 ms GTG, 5 ms GTG, 4 ms GTG Horizontal Viewing Angle 178° Vertical Viewing Angle 178° Brightness 350 cd/m² (nits) Native Contrast Ratio 1500:1 Color Support 1.07 Billion Colors Color Gamut 99% sRGB (CIE 1931) Adaptive Sync AMD FreeSync Premium HDCP Support Yes Mount Type Panel Mount VESA Mount 100 × 100 mm Maximum Height Adjustment 13 cm Tilt -5° to 21° Swivel -30° to 30° Pivot ±90° Stand Adjustments Tilt, Swivel, Height, Pivot Glass Hardness 3H Horizontal Frequency 27–270 kHz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Vertical Frequency 48–120 Hz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Video Inputs 2 × HDMI 2.1 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3), 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3) Operating Temperature 0°C to 40°C Storage Temperature -20°C to 60°C Operating Humidity 10%–80% (Non-condensing) Storage Humidity 5%–95% (Non-condensing) Get it at the link below: Dell S2725QS 27-inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor: $218.49 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $280) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.
