It was supposed to be out this week, you know. In front of Indiana Jones IV. But, with Paramount moving the date, it's up in the air just when we'll catch a glimpse of the new movie.

In my mind, the second teaser could only have gone like -this-:

Paramount logo

and

Bad Robot logo

We see the WELDERS from the previous teaser, now almost done working on the exterior of the ENTERPRISE. One of the men pulls off his mask, gazing directly forward. Extreme close-up on his careworn face. His eyes glitter.

WELDER: o/` "It's been a long road...

Getting from there to here

It's been a long time

Well, my time is finally near!

And I can feel the change in the world right now

Nothing's in my way

And they're not gonna hold me down no more

No they're not gonna hold me down!"

*Choking with emotion, all other WELDERS drop their tools and gather around the first, beaming as they join and lift their hands, singing in unison now*

ALL: o/` "Cause I've got FAITH of the HEART

I'm going where my heart will take me

I've got FAITH to BELIEVE

I can do anything

I've got STRENGTH of the SOUL

And no one's gonna bend or break me

I can reach any star

I've got FAITH

I've got FAITH

FAITH OF THE HEART!"

*They embrace as one, weeping without shame*

Cut to FILM LOGO

then show OLD SPOCK, reading a scroll or something in his study. Suddenly, a GENERIC YOUNG ENSIGN bursts into the room

GENERIC YOUNG ENSIGN: "Sir, SIR!"

SPOCK: *slowly looks up from scroll* "Yes?"

GYE: "They're trying to change history, sir! Using the...uhm....the...you know..."

SPOCK: *stony-faced silence*

GYE: "Ah, heck. The...rhymes with 'Maurdian of Morever'."

Just then, HARLAN ELLISON leaps out from behind Spock's couch

HARLAN: "Ah-HA!!!"

Cut to RELEASE DATE

*********

It'd work like a charm, trust me.

Judging by the dark tone of the previews, I think it'd go more like:

Camera pans down from a starfield to a group of welders working on the Enterprise, one welder stands up to take off his mask and starts to sing.

WELDER: It's been a long-

All the other welders pull out phasers and incinerate him.

Then lots of things explode.
