THEY USED THE BEASTIE BOYS’ ‘SABOTAGE’ FOR THIS STAR TREK: BEYOND TRAILER.

Good GOD.

…And they f*cking have me now. They hooked me, and they just reeled me in. I mean. Damn. They’re out there without a net, dude, so you might as well crank it up and enjoy the ride.

  2. Coming in 2016…

    (dun dun. dun dun)

    Oooooooh. I can’t stand it. I know you planned it…

    Michael Moore’s “Roger and Me II”

    Moe – “Damn it.”

  5. I have just seen this trailer. Now I hate the world.

    If this is what my most beloved of all franchises has come to, PROUDLY advertising that they hired the director of a mindless action movie to turn them into a mindless action movie, then you know what, I might as well vote for Bernie Sanders. As long as things are going down the tubes anyway, let’s just make sure the flush is good and strong.

    1. You wait until after the first two directed by J.J. “Captain Lens-flare” Abrams to come to that conclusion?

      Come now. The studio abandoned science-fiction for science fantasy somewhere around literally blowing up two galactic civilizations in one movie without batting an eye.

      1. Hey, now. Kinda liked the first one…it wasn’t really Trek, but its plot was set up in a time-travel way that was completely consistent with the Trekverse. (And already on record as loathing the second one, but it didn’t have no gorram Beastie Boys fei hua soundtrack in its trailer, neither.)

        1. Agreed that the Beastie Boys do nothing for me. My general experience is that time travel is the last refuge of the Trek writer out of ideas. The first one made me turn my head so many times because it was exploding handwavium instead of Final Frontier.

          I’m glad they’re upfront what the movie is marketing this time: ‘Splode-ey Action, now with 20% more SpaceOpera!

          1. Time travel has *become* the last refuge of the Trek writer out of ideas. But so many of the best Treks involve time travel or time-warping effects. Star Trek IV, Star Trek: First Contact, TNG’s Yesterday’s Enterprise and Cause and Effect and Time Squared, TOS’s The City on the Edge of Forever and Tomorrow Is Yesterday, DS9’s Children of Time and Trials and Tribble-ations…

            Call me crazy, but having a movie premise where the original universe basically write itself out of existence (or created a parallel universe — same diff) because of Spock and Nero traveling back in time was a lot of fun for a Trekkie like me.
            .
            The second movie, however, blows chunks.

  6. I waited until they were free on Amazon Prime to watch the last 2 ST movies. This one is going to be seen in the theater.

    They had me at Sabotage.
