If anything you do get the feeling that we're in for yet more action like the first one, which is good to me. I've always been a big fan of the star trek ship to ship battles like in the 2nd and 6th movies with the original crew. The 2009 movie did that good, we'll see what happens in this sequel.

The first one was all character... well, Main character. The villain was there

for fluff. I'm expecting this one to change gears and up the action ante.

But even that being said... it's still going to be character driven, obviously.

Just look at the cast. It's phenomenal.

At IMAX theaters the first 10 min of STID will screen before The Hobbit.

Ahh why would you want to see that? Seeing a trailer is one thing (though I even avoid those) but seeing the first 10 minutes then having to wait months to see the rest would be really annoying.

You think that's bad? I used to know a guy who'd pay full price at the theatre just to see a trailer for a movie he's interested in, then he'd leave. The last time I saw him was at a movie showing the trailer for "Spider-Man" (2002)!

this is really an alternate universe story to the original star trek timeline. right off the bat the owners of star trek are playing it safe. i don't think i want to invest any attachment to something that even the franchise itself has no confidence in, or can easily brush off later.

Where do you get that they have no confidence in it? JJ and his writers are huge Star Trek fans and they know the show and the universe well. Doing the "alternate universe through time travel changing history" bit is just a scifi way to reboot the series. I don't see a problem with it doing so.

Yeah, I agree. I think that would annoy me too. LOL

Will STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS Be The Last Time We See Zachary Quinto As Spock?

?It?s like an era of association with certain roles ? a specific part like Spock, or a kind of part, like Sylar ? is coming to an end,? he says.

If he doesn't play Spock anymore, then they'll have to take the story into a radically different direction. Maybe even one with a new crew and starship.

Why? Just recast it. That or add a few digits to his salary in a multi-film contract renegotiation, which is what this is probably all about.

    • Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
