Upon watching the new and probably final Star Trek trailer, I sat there stunned and then said to no one:
Holy Expletive! That was Bad Expletive!
JJ Abrams, who I have enormous respect for as a director and writer of high intensity / high emotional movies, has hit a chord inside of of me with this new trailer. I knew this movie would be good, and I still have no idea how closely these new actors will be able to pull off these established and well loved characters, but after viewing the trailer below I have more confidence! Surely more confidence than I did walking into Watchmen.
May is looking like a very good month, indeed! May 1st we get Wolverine, then on May 8th we get to go trekking!
So what do you think? Great trailer? Could the movie be equally great? Does the Eric Bana nemesis come from the future, since he mentions James T. Kirk “was a great man, but that was another life?” Great stuff, can’t wait!
I saw the trailer on IMDB today and loved seeing it here too.:)
I am a rabid trekker. I have all 9 episodes of the other movies and can quote you lines from the originals. The actor who is playing Spock looks almost like a young Leonard Nimoy and I like that Karl Urban is playing McCoy. But...Kirk had green eyes not blue. I hope that actor plays Kirk well since the role is iconic. As is Scotty and the rest. Typical Kirk still gets the girl :).
I am in the process of brow-beating my parent to take us to the movies. I don't care if I see another movie in theaters all year, but I gotta see this one. Of course, I use to have a Starfleet Academy pin from Paramount Amusement Park.
God the summer looks great already.
