Looks totally new and original  i.e. not a remake/rehash of previous movies/shows.

This will be the first movie with Star Trek in the title that I will never see.  :(

Yeah, that trailer was complete rubbish.  Not even remotely interested.

Doesn't look that bad. Are those Space Elves or Albino Vulcans?  :idiot2:

Killing the Enterprise in the third movie, are we? Stranding the crew on a cheap looking junk heap of a planet?

YEAH, ROCK OUT Y'ALL, THIS IS SOME REAL-ASS STAR TRAK NOWWWWwwww!

I will however grant that being stranded on a cheap looking cargo cult of a planet with secret high-tech mystery-threats, is quite classic Trek.

Had they thought of something else other than killing the Enterprise to generate plot tension, and found almost anything other than grunge scatter-rock for the trailer, I might be in. As many problems as the first two movies had (and my God did they have problems), they felt properly epic (to me) and looked and sounded good with plenty of characterization touches. They were combat Star Trek instead of Star Trekking Star Trek, and I agree it's time to get past that, but this... man... this is some Trek 5 levels of dubiousness, except more trivial.  :crazy2: So much more trivial they have to amp the stakes and get rid of the home team advantage by killing off the Enterprise.

So, opinions: Guardians of the Galaxy stab attempt? I say yes, with a wild miss.

If the planet they're stranded on is full of walking trees and raccoons that build phasers, then I think you have a point.

I was thinking more about the attempt at a tone.

That already happened back in the 2009 film when Vulcan was destroyed by excessive lense flare.

Seems like it might be good to me.  At least one of those guys is a Cardassian which means this is a link to Star Trek Deep Space 9 series.  Most probably it has bad guys coming through that wormhole thing the DS9 space station was supposed to be close to.  Or Enterprise goes through the wormhole and runs into something it can't handle.

Wait, so handing directorial duties off to the Fast and the Furious guy wasn't a good idea?  ::)

Just ignore them. They bring too much baggage to each movie they see.  ;)
I think it looks interesting as well, and am looking forward to seeing it.
