The Official Star Trek Thread

The title sucks imo but the teaser trailer just hit and the actual movie is looking pretty incredible.

Michael Bay will be directing again? Disappointing.

Sheesh, some of you guys are harsh. Action sells, so it's not surprising that the teaser trailer is very action-centric.

The 2009 movie was a lot fun and certainly doesn't deserve to be compared to that brain dead Michael Bay crap.

The 2009 film was the 9th best* of the 11 movies, and an unnecessary slap in the face to the long-time fans.  It could have been just as good without destroying all the continuity.

*- It was still decent nonetheless.

9th best? So what were the only two that you thought were worse?

[Eraserhead]

The villain is named John Harrison. He seems to be an original character (unless that is a bogus identity... which seems very possible).

I'm looking forward to the movie. The trailers for it have just become overkill at this point.

Is it bad that the only reason I'm going to go see this is to gauge how good the next Star Wars movie is going to be?

Yes. Yes, it is.

It's Khan. I will bet a $100 Cumberbatch is Khan.

The character seems absolutely nothing like Khan though. It'd have to be a radically different interpretation of the character. I can't really see it.
