The only thing I am greatly concerned about is Abram’s design for the Enterprise and the way he follows Star Trek history. I hope his design for the USS Enterprise doesn’t deviate from Gene Roddenberry’s Enterprise that was in the original pilot, “The Cage.” We must remember that we are going back in time- not forward. If I am familiar with Enterprise 1701 Captain’s, Capt. April was the first and he was followed by Capt. Pike.
In this modern age of high tech and better special effects, it wouldn’t do Star Trek any justice for J.J. Abrams to redo the starship Enterprise. The best thing he could do is give it a brand new shiney look.

# 204 to answer your question; The spoiler in Star Trek III was actually seeing the Enterprise blow up in the movie trailer, so no one was surprised going into the theater that it would to be the last voyage of the NCC-1701.

Really?

All I can say is “glorious” (to coin a phrase)…

:-)

Thanks, I couldn’t remember. And I agree with you, I don’t mind a teensy, weensy spoiler but even though I beg and plead to know what’s going to happen I really don’t want to know.

So, keep on “decrying”, J. J. and thanks for having our best in mind.

Unless it was something that exposed that Spock was going to “return”…

I didn’t want to say in case someone out there somehow hadn’t already seen the film, but it was the destruction of the Enterprise. The producers had kept it a secret, but then a separate team made the trailer and gave it away without them approving to do so, if I remember correctly.

I can’t remember – - what was the spoiler that spoiled the surprise in ST:III?

Oh, and I’d like to add that I -would- like a peek at the new Enterprise before seeing the movie, but as far as story details go, I say keep hiding those spoilers!

Anyone remember when Star Trek III came out, and the trailer gave away one of the biggest spoilers in the movie?

Sometimes I don’t mind spoilers, but I’d rather be surprised if I can help it. It’s bad enough how a lot of TV shows are really predictable these days anyway.

“My uncle Baldrick was in a play once.”
“Really?”
“Yeah, it was called Macbeth.”
“And what did he play?”
“Second Codpiece. Macbeth wore him in the fight scenes.”
“So he was a stunt codpiece. Did he have a large part?”
“Depends who’s playin’ Macbeth…”
