Or was it the fantastic marketing campaign, the epic promotion during the Olympics and the Adele song that hyped people? The 50th Anniversary war a part of the fantastic marketing campaign.

Sam Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 I agree with Chewy. I loved the Beastie Boys trailer, that's the one that got me interested in seeing Beyond. It offered something different, a unique look while at the same time, make it feel more Trek than the boring generic action fare that was STID.

Because STID didn't felt like Trek. That is why it did so well. The marketing of that one was terrific. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when you have a franchise which clearly needs OS growth to work, selling something completely different doesn't work. Especially since it was received so badly by Trekkies in the US. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
