I'm pretty trekkie but it doesn't look that interesting.

Ok it isn't Star Trek The Motion Picture by any stretch of the imagination, but I'll go see it anyways.

Looks an awful lot like any of these TV-series they have these days filled with beautiful featureless young faces, plot tailored for juveniles and teenagers. Don't like what I see in that trailer. Looks like "Melrose Place" in space. Und überall diese Milchgesichter... Is the movie about babysitting in space?

I was thinking on opening a new thread about the movie since images and the TV spot were release a few days and bookworm_020 did the job .

After a saw the trailer, that confirms several things, I and . And so after I saw the image of kirk and the enterprise !

For a interesting comment on the movie and ship:

http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/mi...xi_comment.htm

http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/ar...se_comment.htm

This movie will be the XXI century vision of Star Trek. So one must began to separate the "old trek universe" (with may have or not the Enterprise series) from the "new trek universe". And the movie can be good also...

Ah... the last rattling gasp of a dying franchise... And, because they ran out of original plots, the writers fell back on the "Sex Device". I'm a lifelong fan of StarTrek and to a lesser extent, the spin-offs. But I may just "walk on by" the theatres and wait for the DVD on this one...

Looking forward to it. Change is not a bad thing. It worked with Batman, it worked with James Bond, maybe it will here as well.

Oh! I'm really looking forward to this one. They won't ever replace the verve and sex appeal of a young Shatner, but knowing Abrams, the film will be quality entertainment.

Live long and prosper!

ya know, maybe you've got something there AVG... Perhaps a spin-off series after the movie to hook the "youngsters" and bring back the franchise...

It worked for Superman in "Smallville."

Well, yesterday I read about this and there is sex and Capt Kirk checking out Lt Auhura while she is undressing. My first thought was this is 90210 meets Ster Trek. It seemed to be getting silly. I stopped reading.
