Star Trek Beyond deserved so much more at the box office

I liked the movie a lot although I don't understand what was SO BAD about the trailer. That trailer actually made want to see it.

I'll give you an example. They're making a Transformers movie. And the trailer is filled with OP, Wheeljack, Bumblebee, Rachet etc. all sitting at a table, drinking tea. And that's all you see. That's basically what they did with Beyonds trailer. They made the trailer as another type of movie. Star Trek is Star Trek. Not Fast Furious. I'm not going to like a Fast trailer. Regardless that I like the FF franchise.

Also, the second film was hated. So that's another reason people wouldn't watch the third one.

Agreed. Into Darkness hurt this film. Into Darkness was more of a Sci Fi Action film than a Trek film. That combined with stupidity of taking elements of Wrath of Khan didn't help. When the Beyond trailer released it looked they were doing another action film, so it turned off a lot of fans. It's ashame because Beyond was a Trek film and a good one at that.
