New Trek trailer online

[BlackKnight]

I don't have high speed, so I can't watch any of this U-Tube stuff...
However Last night on Fox during the Terminator Sara Conner Cronicles,.. they showed about a 4 minute preview & It was BAD ARSE !!!!

Lots of explosions, quick cuts and CGI, wow, didn’t see that coming. I kid, I kid! Seriously it’s to be expected considering who the director is.

Anyhoo, the bit with rug rat Kirk with the car was pretty darn cringe worthy and having Uhura strip was kinda crass. It’s trying way too hard to be edgy and hip.

But like the new Enterprise itself, I expected worse. Or maybe I just have low expectations after what Sci-Fi did to Flash Gordon. Could have been better and could have been a heck of a lot worse. Still don’t like the bright white plastic looking bridge.

Apple has really high quality versions of the trailer up for those with high spead.

This is no dis to anyone here, but I think a lot of people want Star Trek Classic back so bad, it's blinding them to accept anything they see diguising itself as Classic Trek.

And You may be right Mike. I do want more classic Star Trek stories with Kirk & Spock....BADLY!!!! And if it sucks, I'll be the the first to admit it...but I won't condemn it, without at least watching it first.

I think if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, it's probably gunna be a duck ...

And so far from what i've seen, it's a duck

Teens have a very short attention span.
If they do like it, they'll see it once and that will be the end of it.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I think going after the younger genteration is going to guarantee a great movie. It was this stratagy that gave us the three Star Wars prequels and I can't stand those movies.

I was just trying to explain why I think Abrams has pretty much written off our generation.

And, yeah, I spotted things in the trailer I didn't like.

I don't know if they are officially calling this a re-boot like Batman Begins or Casino Royale, but that's how I'm approaching it.

Both of those re-boots had things I didn't like (Batman - black armor, husky voice; Bond - frantic inchoherant action). But overall, I enjoy them for what they are.

I know this new Trek movie has Nimoy, but the other two re-boots had throw backs to the previous series (Bond - Judi Dench as M, the old Astin Martin DB5; Batman - again, all-black armor, girlfriend who knows Bat's secret i.d.)

For me this could either be a Phantom Menace or a Casino Royale. That's why I said, I just have to wait and see it. Unless I hear overwhelmingly from every one this sucks.

I know this: Abrams has not earned my unquestioning trust they way Chistopher Nolan has. If this sucks, Abrams may get 7 bucks out of me but it'll be the last. You can count on that.

I think the main reason they cast so young is...if J.J. does pull a Rabbit out of His Hat, and the Francise is restarted...the Actors won't get too old on them, to quick.

Which is why I think they didn't cast Matt Damon as Kirk(who was reportedly interested in the Role)...he is already to old for their plan! Which is a cryin' shame...because I thought Matt would have made a GREAT Kirk!

This thread is proving one thing...everyone whether they like it or hate it...is going to see it regardless...lol.

It's a smash hit already.

I saw Quantum of Solace last week end but missed the Star Trek trailer, so I watched it on you-tube then on the star trek site. I have to say I'm super excited to see it. Granted I never really followed the original Trek that much, as I'm 26 so it was a little before my time.

Still don’t like the bright white plastic looking bridge.

You mean like this?



Oh well if this New Trek doesn't do it for some of us at least we can all look forward to Star Trek XII http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UfzuRMthMzk

As a life long Trek fan, I wasn't excited about this flick at all. I've been disappointed, especially after Voyager and Enterprise (and of course the TNG flicks). But I saw the trailer on TV last night in all it's HD glory, and I admit, all of a sudden I got geeked for it. It struck a cord.

We can never have the old cast back, but there is potential here for a good story and a good time. After seeing the new preview, I'm game.
