Final Trailer!

It feels a bit like a Casual Audience Easter Egg, or for fans of 12 Monkeys to give a Trek show a try as many folks won't know Matalas' deep involvement with Trek in his early career but will know him as the 12 monkeys dude.
Yeah, Picard season 2 actually has several 12 Monkeys Easter eggs. It also shows that Vadic's group is part of a much larger intricate conspiracy, and she's likely the "first boss", not the "final boss".

If it's one of the same Cinematographers he used in 12 Monkeys we're still seeing a very muted lighting pallette, which certainly seems to be the case in the "non action" pieces we've seen so far as well. Even Picard's study in the chateau seems weirdly muted when he's trying to read.
Hopefully the trailers don't reflect the show itself in that regard. The trailers aren't in high dynamic range color, have likely have been digitally manipulated to punch up certain aspects to sell the show, and even the version on Paramount+ isn't given the bandwidth to breathe.
 
Honestly, I hope not. And it's not that I don't love Data, but, season one made this whole big thing about letting go of him and to just undo that would be a very bad choice, in my opinion.
We did go though that with Spock, and everyone was happy afterwards.
*Initially the plan was for Data's "katra" to emerge through B4 in a new TNG movie after Nemesis, and it may be that Terry Matalas is going to rectify that.
 
I think DSC, PIC, and ENT all suck. Whatcha gonna do with that?
Mind if I ask a good faith question? Briefly, what did you think of ENT seasons 3 and 4? Did serialization and then tying it more into Star Trek history do anything to improve your impression of the series?

Picard is having a change of showrunners, is promised to tie much more into the greater Star Trek universe, and fit in more with the TNG era. Are you interested in maybe checking out the season premiere?

Most of their guesses seem accurate, but they’re way off with the Babylon 5 ship. They’re looking at it from the wrong angle.

Spock didn't ask to please be killed. Picard did him a favor.
 
The trailer's dropped on Amazon Prime UK's channel (as again, Amazon hold distribution rights to Picard and Lower Decks outside the US) and seems to be waaaaaay better lit. I can actually see whats going on now and a lot of the "what the hell is going on in this shot?" bits from the trailer are now actually visible.

Looks like Matals was right, it's lit better than the trailer suggested.

There is what appears to be a data transfer cable attach to Lore in the trailer, which could be from B4. And in the previous trailer trailer when Geordi says "Lore" it could that for awhile they had Data back, but then Lore reemerged later in the series. That's why I think there might be a merging of the three conciseness' into someone new.

I've often echoed my feelings on how I wasn't the biggest fan of Star Trek IV essentially undoing everything from the previous films. So, even if that had been the original plan with Data, that doesn't mean it's still something I agree with.

Doesn't seem region locked, at least to the US.

Did I just see what I thought I saw? A Refit-Constitution Class in the corner? That made my day.

I hope that's the Enterprise-A. It might not be the original Enterprise, but at least it's one that Kirk was still Captain of. So it would be nice if that ship is in the museum.

Shhhh.... don't tell that to the people who want to stay up in arms. ;)
