The third installment in the rebooted Star Trek saga is called Star Trek Beyond

http://www.slashfilm.com/star-trek-3-title-star-trek-beyond/

I understand if Abrams wants to move on, but why the **** was a meh to outright shitty director given this.

Nerd raging so hard right now. SO hard.

Justin Lin is pretty good. He's not bad.

Of the six films of his I've seen, only one was decent while the rest were crap (Fast/Furious flicks).

Seems odd that they would pass off one of pop culture's most iconic franchises to a guy whose best known films are the slightly-less-stupid-than-Michael-Bay-level FF flicks.

TBH though, my faith in the "NuTrek trilogy" died with the first film, when it became blatantly apparent that they were more interested in making a standard sci fi popcorn flick than tackling the complex and wondrous themes that TOS and TNG engaged in. So I don't really have any high expectations for this.

i like justin lin but not a fan of the title , if indeed it has been titled this

Probably because Justin Lin is a fan and his vision for the film matched what the producers were looking for.

I read that's not even the final title for the movie, It was only something Simon Pegg let slip.

Star Trek was just Abrams CV to get his job on SW.

And it was a great Cv. Job done!

Hoping for a Klingon war.

i.e. shaky cam, lens flares, and convoluted time travel plots.

Oh calm down people. Sure Abrams is what made this franchise great but I have hope this can be quite good. I just hope this series never goes back to the boring and terrible ways pre reboot. Idris Ilba iirc is in talks to probably be the main baddie. They also stated the villain will most likely be an original character which sounds refreshing.

Hope the Borg are introduced

Plus the first nuTrek movie was basically Star Wars 2.0.

You thought the first film's plot was convoluted?

Originally posted by Firefly218
Hope the Borg are introduced I highly doubt it but I'd like that a lot. If they do go Klingons I would love for them to experiment with their own super soldier based off what Khan did to them on their home world.

I would like to see a Klingon war. They have bend building to that in the films and these films don't have to be a trilogy.

It does seem so.

2267 was the year the Fed-Klingon war started in the original time-lime and ST:ID took place about 2260, so it's possible they could mirror the original.

Star Trek should be about exploration though, not war.

Originally posted by Firefly218

These new Trek films have been portrayed as action films. Exploration would be better done on tv.

Also like it or not we have never got a fleet space battle in any of the trek films. It has always been a small fleet of ships vs one super ship of doom. Not fleet vs fleet.

They should go all out. Would be nice if Elba was playing a Klingon killing machine.

I also want to see more Sulu in action since he was formidable in hand to hand combat.

Not having a villain is an absolutely horrific idea.

These Klingons had 12 years to study the Narada and it's 24th century Borg-hybrid tech.

So that's a story angle they could use.

A film about a arms race would be a good way to show that.

Klingons have natural advantages over humans, at least physically, though they probably would not be on Khan's level mentally.

Avengers actually had them scrap the trekY script. Great news. Screw the old trek and welcome the nu trek.

It's true, most criticism of big summer flicks and superhero stuff is met with "It's just an entertaining popcorn movie get over it."

Not sure when I didn't agree. I'm a longtime Star Trek fan and Star Trek to me is more than just explosions and flash.

You prefer Star Trek to be mindless and simplistic action movies, I need more than that; I need story and substance. Mr. Pegg agrees with me.

I do not consider either of the Nu Treks to be mindless with explosions and flash. If you believe they don't display themes aside from the action in them but hypocritically applaud Mad Max which was simplistic and all action then be a hypocrite.

I believe both of the Nu Treks had an excellent story. You don't. Continue to applaud the real mindless action film, mad max.

Exactly.

Wasn't overly excited over this director taking over the helm, but now with those comments I kind of am.

He has his heart in it, which is always good.

It's possible. At least Abrams said that by the second movie, he'd come around. Though what that means when you look at Into Darkness, I'm not sure.

The studio signed the actors for a fourth Trek provided they decide to do so. What would be great is if this franchise could keep going while Star Wars shows no signs of slowing down at all. More fantasy and Sci fi the better.

So Enterprise gets smashed quickly again only for Kirk or Spock to try and figure out a way to win?

They should have went with a Klingon war with whole fleets fighting each other.

if/when the klingons are in this, they need to be the warrior race that they are.. they need to have a lot of worf in them and not the cannon fodder version from Into Darkness

Indeed, they're usually regulated to fodder with the exception of them fighting alongside the Federation.

Most generic characters are fodder. If Elba is a Klingon you can beat your ass he will be formidable.

Weird. I don't think anyone believes Elba was added to the cast to be used as some disposable character.

Are random star fleet humans badasses ? Nah, so acting like Klingons are treated any differently is just your misconception on how movies work. These Klingons were obviously portrayed as greater than the humans and romulans Kirk and Spock tangled with anyways. They were only fodder to Khan.

Yeah, you don't know what was being discussed and jumped in shouting like a child. Bruce and I were taking on Klingons in the bigger sense of Star Trek, not just Abrams films, which is a very small part of ST as a whole, being only two films. On paper, your average Klingon warrior should Be able to slap-down your average Fed personal. You're completely out of your element again, not having watched all the shows and OT and NG films.

But even in Into Darkness Kirk and Spock were easily taking them out, Uhura a 125lbs woman schooled at least one. You should really know this.

I'm hoping Star Trek Beyond gets back to the real adventure root of the first movie.

I was talking about the race in its entirety using logic and common sense. Work isn't a fodder character because he's a main character just like any other human being who is a main character. Kirk and Spock were above average and were clearly outmatched whereas just Kirk and Spock ran wild on those Romulans from the first film whose speeches is also superior to human beings.

Kirk was defeated. Uhura said they had no chance and only due to Khan did they. That group of Klingons was >Spock, Uhura, Kirk, and the other enterprise humans there. Give a Klingon a major role and we will see far more but as species go they were definitely >humans and the Romulans we have seen from the two films.

No, you were not. You jumped in the convo not knowing what was being discussed, as noted.

Watch the clip, Kirk and crew were killing Klingons just fine, they were at a disadvantage due to the Klingon's superior numbers, ships and reinforcements.

A few Klingons overtook Kirk. Physically they were far greater than Kirk who managed to gun a few down. I've always maintained they were fodder to only Khan. The only reason they survived is because Khan went through them like nothing but he also had the three from the enterprise at his mercy as well. They were simply in awe of Khan.
