    Disappointing this is not on Netflix with Discovery, they must be kicking themselves.

    As emotional as it is to see the cameos, I'm... sceptical. I don't like the "McGuffin girl" trope all the way back to Firefly, and with Troi and Riker confirmed I'd worry this will be a series of high five cameos. 7of9 feels arbitrary.

    I'm excited, don't get me wrong, but ... We'll see.

    I read somewhere, that I can't find at the minute, CBS All Access did this intentionally. Something about not wanting to give one competitor all their catalogue for international streaming.

    About. Fcuking. Time.

    The hell with all the reboots, prequels, alternate timelines - they'we wasted 18 bloody years when all most people wanted to see was "what happens next" - as in, 25th century next, not "who would have thought 60 years of lore would create a dumpster fire for a prequel series, let's randomly skip to the 29th century" next. Only two decades to get the message.

    Holy ****. I cannot wait. Goes to watch it again for a 3rd time....

    I'm betting that's a captured Borg cube!

    Janeway and the Borg hunters been busy!

    And the Romulan Empire symbol looks slightly different and red.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,026 ✭✭✭H3llR4iser


    I thought the same Slydice - a Romulan captured Borg Cube, no less. It also looks like there are splinter factions on Romulans, a bit like in STO - the guy telling Picard to be "the Captain they remember" is a Romulan too...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Just copped Orla Brady on my 15 viewing of it.

    What language is that next to it though? It looks like Romulan.

    So who has the base 4 counting system?

    And in STO it was the remenant of the Tal Shiar which had captured a borg vessel.

    Jonathan Del Arco was also on the SDCC panel, and confirmed to be on the show.

    That's Hugh from I, Borg and Decent :)

    That new ship bridge seems weird. Very long and couple levels? Cargo / smuggler ship?

    Looks very much like it- a working civilian ship of some kind.

    Guard looks human? It's make sense in one respect, the federation would want to restore the assimilated, especially with 7of9 showing it could be done. So am guessing the FX shot is the same location - I did see blue lights rather than the uniform green - so I'm guessing the Fed captured a cube and are perhaps de-borging folk sector by sector?

    Saw it recently somewhere that o brien is literally the only true or positive depiction of Irish people in any form.
    Very true if you think about it.
    Not sure how an o brien series would work though.

    Leave it to Chief O Brien comedy series eh no thanks

    Episode 1. His son starts an interstellar soul band.

    Ep. 2. His daughter gets knocked up by Quark.

    Ep. 3. O’Brien and Basheer buy a chipper.


    Sounds great to me

    Could she be a relative of Tasha or Sela something?

    When I saw Seven I nearly jumped out of my seat!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 5,456 Mod ✭✭✭✭Optimus Prime


    Oh man that looks amazing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    O'Brien could make an appearance the new series they are making Lower Decks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,749 ✭✭✭Smiles35


    Data still calls him Captain. Must have got his memory into B4.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    I wonder is the Data scene in a Holodeck


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,260 ✭✭✭✭AMKC
    Ms


    That looks Awesome.

    I know some here think its a long wait till 2020 but its not really. Just keep yourself busy and time will fly by. I actually think its a good thing as the more people that see this the more people will be interested in it and want to watch the series itself. I think both old and new trekkies will watch this.

    7 of 9 was definitely a surprise I must say. I did believe when someone posted at first that she would be in it and the Borg as well as Data, Riker and Dianna.

    I have watched the trailer 4 times already lol

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    Just saw that trailer pop up on my YouTube feed.

    That looks great. I just hope they don't screw this up because that trailer feels "right".

    Add in the Top Gun 2/Maverick trailer yesterday as well and it's been a very good weekend for unexpected sequels :)
