    Was an ok first episode but didn't really add anything unless this is gonna be part of the second season - this is a totally new concept (at least never remember this brought up before) so could be an interesting storyline
    But not complaining as it's still a bit of Trek to see us thru.

    I thought it could not be viewed here. Have looked on sites myself and no luck yet in finding somewhere to view it. Did you use a streaming site or is there somewhere that has it where we can view it this site of the Atlantic?

    Also maybe we could have a separate thread for these if we do have somewhere to view them.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    Season 2 trailer:



    Wooo!
    Klingon hair! Proper Klingon battle cruiser!!! Presumably Pike's "Number One"! Spock!!

    Looks pretty good :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,281 ✭✭✭✭fritzelly


    Hell yeah, cant wait!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 35,941 CMod ✭✭✭✭pixelburp


    Well that looks pretty good I must say, and the retconning seems in full swing. Klingons hairy once more n all.

    "The red angel" though, that's a bit Mystery Box. Everything else has me enthusiastic though. Captain Pike could be a classic captain yet.

    I'll use spoiler tags even though it's public info for some time.
    Yup, that's explicitly Pike's Number One, from way back in the days of the original pilot.


    I think I'd have preferred if they'd held back more stuff from the trailer such as
    the Empress
    . Unless we're in for a major bait and switch like the first season.

    What was the deal with
    Georgiou, before she took down the hood or should we know?

    Section 31 seem to use holographic disguises or similar, or at least they did in the post season/credits clip at the end of season 1.

    Old style Klingons, brilliant!



    Trailer is really good.

    Fcuk Putin. Glory to Ukraine!

    My theorise (also from others)

    Prime Universe Lorca

    Iconians

    Something trying to escape the mycelial network

    that looks bloody good, can see how they want to get to classic trek look, i am in


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,702 ✭✭✭BrookieD


    Beardy Spock, Mirror Spock?


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,228 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    They absolutely fcuking nailed the casting of
    number one


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 35,941 CMod ✭✭✭✭pixelburp


    Do we need spoiler tags? I think a public trailers contents are fair game for mentioning and talking about. Not like it's some sneaky set photo. ..


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,501 ✭✭✭✭Slydice


    Riker is in the trailer?

    Agreed.


    Kilngons look awesome.

    Red angel is interesting

    Pike seems a good fit

    Spock is a Hippy

    Fcuk Putin. Glory to Ukraine!

    Yeah, Pike is the big, happy surprise for me: I wasn't sure what to make of that announcement (beyond cynicism over the Enterprise link), and had doubts about Anson Mount for casting, but from what I've seen from the trailer he looks to be a 'true' Starfleet Captain - and if Discovery somehow manages to pad out Pike's backstory to make him into a bit of a hero or greater character than it'll be a happy case of a prequel doing good to the backstory for once.

    I’ll call it now.

    I would be stunned if thought hasn’t been given to a new show showing the Pike Enterprise years.

    We have a ship and three of its crew on discovery. I would dearly love to see it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,980 ✭✭✭TheIrishGrover


    Is Pike going to be a regular now? I thought he was only supposed to be in a few episodes (I may have just misread that somewhere). 'Cos I certanly like the vibe he gives off in the trailers.

    I really liked the looks of that trailer.

    Series regular for S2 from what I have read.

    Ah, OK. Cool. I'm assuming they'll say something like: "But what about your ship?" "Ah, I handed it over to some other fellah" Huh? Huh? Nudge nudge...


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 35,941 CMod ✭✭✭✭pixelburp


    I suspect while Pike's away, 'Number 1' will be in charge; there's a brief clip of her, complete with TOS style uniform. I'm betting we'll get a 2-parter at the start, ending with Pike & Number 1 parting ways while the former takes temp. command of the Discovery. (Side bar, didn't realise Rebecca Romijn was playing Number 1).

    Out of curiousity: wondering what Season 1 haters thought of that trailer? Seemed like there was enough division over that first season, but has this trailer done anything to tempt folks back?

    I was going to watch season two anyway but I think the changes seen in the trailer are for the better. I'm not so sure about another season of guest captain instead of just promoting Saru. Promoting Saru and replacing Pike with a commodore would serve the same story purpose and if they absolutely must tie it to an existing character there's a few admirals from TOS they could have used Robert April might have been a good pick since he was already mentioned in STD.
