The first scene with Kirk in the car looks cool.

Guys, one thing I love more than Van Halen is Star Trek. I can't wait. -
Looks cool a sci fi from Abrams will be excellent .
I haven't seen one in many years that was worth watching except the Star Wars latest and Iron Man.
Perhaps us scifi nuts can find a home again....Comment

Probably no different from other Abrams offerings: lots of over-dramatic scenes, nonsensical dialogue and cheesy CGI. At least this is not a Bruckheimer film in which case the horribly scripted dialogue would be replaced with scene after bombastic scene as a tool hoping it'll form some sort of a plot line for the audience to adhere to.
I still go see it knowing this summer has more to offer then another lame pirate show.Comment

to the first part of the statement.
Yes!!! that is what I am talking about a top notch scifi. Perhaps also some hot alien babes bent on destruction and can only be tamed by love..
to the second part
My dear..... perhaps the finest statement about what some call movies...I have ever seen

Time will tell with what Abrams does with Star Trek although I didn't care much for Cloverfield. What interests me is that this doesn't appear to be another cliche in the whole Trek series with new faces and revamping of the Roddenbery cookie-cutter crap that has been rehashed to death.
Most likely Terminator will be shit. Although you have to appreciate an actor with the name 'Moon Bloodgood'

Do We Not Have An Official Star Trek Thread Yet?
OK...so I went to go see it last night...WOW...J.J. did the unthinkable and made a Star Trek that successfully A) Keeps with the continuity of the original Star Trek; B) Finds a perfect way to scrap the entire continuity, and in doing so, create a completely new franchise out of it which C) should appeal to just about everybody under the sun, Star Trek fan or not (and I've never really been all that big on Star Trek myself).
Hands down, it's compelling, visually stunning, and cast EXCEPTIONALLY well. Just a wonderful achievement on all fronts and the singularly best Star Trek movie since The Wrath of Khan, easily; in some regards, I'd venture to say it's even better.
I'm already counting down to the sequel...
The only real problem I had with it was Scotty's munchkin thing companion (which I didn't really find necessary). At the start, I had a hard time seeing Zachary Quinto as anybody other than Sylar, but that vanished about halfway through the film and I suddenly started seeing him as Spock, not Sylar trying to be Spock.
And that "relationship" (and I'm not saying who it was between, since there may yet be folks in this thread who haven't seen it) between two of the main characters...well...it'll take a sequel for me to really get into it or see it actually happening, but I have little doubt that it can be fleshed out a bit more.
All in all, on a scale of 1-10, I'd give it a solid 9. One of the very, very few movies I wouldn't mind seeing in a theater twice.Twistin' by the pool.Comment

Fuck, I thought I was going to love it, but it was just....meh. I despise the new Spock, and walked away wanting to watch Wrath of Khan....Comment
