I hope it has engineering troubles and events we know fro m other Trek shows however I have a feeling there will be a lot of action sequences.

Jonathan Frakes has also confirmed a detail about the episode he directs.

A new behind the scenes featurette, it is well worth the watch and has made me feel a lot happier about the series.

With it airing in the USA very shortly the titles are online.

Not sure what to make, I actually think I prefer the Enterprise theme and titles. This looks and feels a bit James Bond with West World and Game of Thrones.

Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
 

I completely agree, it is really annoying me. I don't know how to explain it but I agree with your Westworld analogy and it is completely inappropriate for the tone and context of the series. I was expecting them to show off some amazing visual display like TNG/DS9/Voyager of planets, space particles and ships to prove a point as we are 15+ years on since the last Star Trek series and look what we can do now!

Hopefully it will get changed in season 2.

Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
 

Well I have watched the 2 episodes and I am still trying to fully understand why they set it 10 years before ToS. They could easily have set it after Voyager and it would have played out better, especially with the tech. All they had to do was leave out the Sarek parts.

It was good that it had a lot of the ToS sounds on the bridge and the door sounds torpedo sounds, but some of the tech just shouldn't exist. Main point being the Star Wars style holograms for communications?!? What were they thinking. Trek has always used video calling and for this to exist in the prime timeline just doesn't fit.Even when ships drop out of warp its clearly from the JJ-verse. There was even lens flare and the phasers on ship and handheld are like bullets rather than the beams they should be. Hopefully things they can resolve over the course of the series.

That being said I did enjoy the main story, even if Starfleet seemed fine to start a war, and as the ensign stated 'we are explorers'



The new trailer for the rest of the season almost makes the first 2 episodes a prequel to the actual show with episode 3 feeling like the actual pilot as it introduces the ship and all the other main characters.

Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
 

What is the length of the episodes, are they really only 10 mins long as that is what everyone was saying months ago?

Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
 

No they are usual length about 40 to 45 mins each.

Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
 

Awesome, will watch it on Kodi.

Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
 

Yes l will catch them later on as well.:)

Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
 

I think you are getting confused with the new Stargate series, they are 10 mins each. :)

Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
 

Watched Episodes 1 & 2 tonight, quite impressed so far, looking forward to Episode 3.

Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)

Re: Star Trek: Discovery (2017)
