http://www.tlhingan.org/- Star Trek XII Viral Marketing?
16 replies, posted
So today I was doing my usual internet rounds and I noticed that TrekMovie had something new up- a rarity in the Star Trek universe. [url=http://trekmovie.com/2009/10/27/new-klingon-propagana-video-follow-up-translation-more/#comment-2277457]Lo and behold, an anime styled "propaganda" video has been uploaded[/url]. Those familiar with the Star Trek universe would understand that these are the looks and words the Klingons, the show's often seen warrior race whom are often belligerent to the show's main faction(the United Federation of Planets), or(more often in the later series), allied with them.
However, with the new movie, the Klingons are still at war with the Federation, and with the info in the videos and on [url]http://www.tlhingan.org/[/url](tlhingan is Klingon for Klingon[in reference to the Species]), one can assume that the goal of this is not aimed at the series' fictional universe, but instead a somewhat more modern day civilization- ours. Hence, the possibility of viral marketing. So, what do you guys think of this? Star Trek 12 viral, or[b](hopefully not)[/b] a Star Trek anime? Regardless, this entire setup is out of line with the culture set up in the show.

Also can you imagine what a Star Trek Anime fan would look like? A weeaboo crossed with a trekkie. They must get all the girls.

That was an amazing series.
I hope they don't take a big wet anime shit on Star Trek, I really hope they don't. :saddowns:
It's for Star Trek Online.
Stop being dumb right now, all of you.

Not so sure about that, the style just doesn't fit. Especially with the new series of STO Klingon trailers.

I said STOP DAMMIT!
The next Star Trek movie will undoubtedly feature the Klingons, but as for this being viral marketing for the next film? No.
