BONUS
Cumberbatch’s villain being the one touching hands with Spock through the glass (while in the brig, apparently) makes even less sense when you think about the voiceover going over that scene in the trailer:

“Is there anything you would not do... for your family?”

And makes even less sense when you take this into account too You can look it up on Google Translate: I did, totally matches.


Thanks for reading!

I've been looking at these and they're kind of awesome in their fanishness. Just one though: people to think that was Cumberbatch's hand can't be Sherlock fans. I took one look at the trailer and knew it was Kirk and Spock without even knowing the reference.

I'm not entirely certain Benedict Cumberbatch's hands could look any less like the ones in the image... people are strange, sometimes

I've read-kinda through all these and all I have to say is wow damn dedication...also why are people so uppity about a hand??? I mean-I'm not in the fandom-though I know a little about it(very very very little) but...I've gotta be missing something...cause if it were me I'd just be like 'damn who is that?!Damn I have to wait for the stinking movie'

But seriously, nice work on...the hand thing

Atsadifish In reply to LotteBubbles [2012-12-21 11:31:06 +0000 UTC]

Lol, I understand your confusion The reason the hand is a big deal is because that shot is meant to echo a scene from the original Star Trek II, the one where Spock dies saving the Enterprise. It's an important, iconic scene -- and a load of people are trying to tear it apart. That's why a lot of the Star Trek fans are freaking out. I personally just wanted to prove whose hand it was because I have an obsessive need to be right

Okay so I was right in my basic understanding-even I know who Spock is and that he's wonderfully important.

And your need to be right-hehe-I think that you solidly proved it-8 'pages' and I'd hope people would stop arguing-at least if they've seen this-if it's any help I believe you

The best part is, people still don't believe it's Chris Pine's hand That is so amusing to me

Was I the only one who choked up a little when you scrolled down and say Shatner and Nimoy... I know he makes it but still... My heart can only handle so much feels...
Ugh, I JUST LOVE THIS. Either way, can't wait for the movie.

Have you seen the new image they are showing? Kirk and Spock at one side of the glass and Cumberbatch in the other?

Atsadifish In reply to MerielTLA [2012-12-11 16:17:01 +0000 UTC]

I have indeed. That's part of my inspiration in doing another part of this examination Have no fear; the trailer hand is definitely Kirk's.
