Star Trek XI Preview Clip

His middle name should be Tiberious NOT Siberious. Also, Kirk never served aboard the Enterprise until he was captain so its obvious they aren't following canon.

Do you wear your Spock ears while posting in this thread?

No although I don't dress up in Trek or attend conferences, I do pretty much know all things Trek since I love the storyline so much.

There's your problem right there.

I'm not a Star Trek fan, but this looks like it could be a fun movie.

It looks good to me, i will not compare it to the orignal ST i will ust look at it like a new movie.

100% agree. I think it's an interesting and different take on Star Trek. I like the fact that they're going the route of the Prequel instead of continuing on with overdone sequels. At the very least, the audio and video on BD should be ridiculous!

I just watched it. Looks pretty decent to me.

I think he said, "Tiberious." Cut the kid some slack, Gene...he almost went off a cliff and was probably out of breath.

And he destroyed a 200+ year old antique car

Yes. A true prequel would be just a terrible movie with props predating the original set would be boring today.

spock getting angry?

spock and james t kirk fighting? (wouldn't that be a very short fight?)

Spockwill put the pinch on ya if you piss him off!! Kirk is a bad man though...plus he knows the how to defend against the pinch move


LOL.....just fooling around. I have all intentions on seeing this in the theatre. Looks very interesting to me.

Peace,

It looks like it might be a good movie, but being a Star Trek nerd, I have two main problems with this preview (and two minor ones which have already been mentioned). One of the main problems has already been stated by Gene in his original post, starships would not be built on the ground but in orbit (they would be far too heavy to lift out of the Earth's gravitational field). Second, in the old show episode "A Piece of the Action," Kirk has all sorts of problems trying to drive a car with a manual transmission, yet in the preview, he seems to have no trouble shifting a then 200 year old Corvette. Also, the uniforms that the young Spock and Kirk wear are the ones they had in the old show, yet their Star Fleet days would have to preceed the era of Captain Pike and Spock in the original pilot "The Cage" (which was folded into the two-part "The Managerie" episode) and the second pilot "Where No Man Has Gone Before" which had a different style uniform. Nonetheless, I hope this movie will succeed and I am looking forward to seeing it.

I think they're trying to breath new life into the series kind of how Casino Royale restarted the Bond series and made some changes to established and accepted storylines or how the newer Battlestar Galactica did. I'm ok with a new 'beginning' as long as its entertaining and can stand on its own merits (questionable to me ).

It will be good to see "Star Trek" back on the big screen. Maybe this can be a new beginning for the franchise. The preview looks good, hopefully the film will be as well. LLAP.
