[Tlhingan-hol] new Klingon [SPOILER]

[Fiat Knox]

majQa'. Thanks for reporting this.


WARNING: possible spoilers
>
>I saw the movie last night, and have a partial transcript taken in the
>theatre of most of the Klingon dialogue, but I will wait 30 days from
>the general US release to discuss the actual words.
>
>However, I have some META-information about the Klingon dialogue in
>the movie, namely, information about the extent of MO's involvement in
>the project, and who else was involved.
>
>So, WARNING again: If you do not want to know anything at all about
>the Klingon spoken in the movie and how it came about, you shouldn't
>be reading this thread.
>
>With that said, if you've watched the promo interviews with Zoe
>Saldana, you'd have known that she was coached by "a linguist from San
>Francisco". And if you've waited until the closing credits of the
>movie, you will see that the language consultant listed was not Marc
>Okrand. It is, however, a linguist based in San Francisco. I contacted
>him, and he confirmed to me that he was involved in the project, but
>noted that he can't say very much as he is under agreement, and also
>he hasn't seen the finished movie and so doesn't actually know what
>the final result is. He was, however, able to confirm the following:
>- he was the one who coached Zoe Saldana and the other Klingon speakers
>- Marc Okrand created every word of the scripted dialogue, but it is
>possible that the dialogue was altered in filming or postproduction
>- if the tlhIngan Hol dialogue is released, it will be through Marc Okrand
>
>So for those of you wondering about the extent of Marc Okrand's
>involvement in this movie, there you go.
