I could be 100% off on the reboot idea. I have wasted pretty much no time at all reading about this movie. I thought I had heard that it would be a reboot, and it would make sense for it to be a reboot. I mean, we have Simon Pegg playing the role of Montgomery Scott, not sure how compatible that is with the original series. But I probably was mistaken about the reboot thing. I guess it is a straight up prequel.

EDIT:

Just looked it up and it seems Abrams, Lindeloff and co. prefer the term "re-vitalization", which sound suspiciously like a politically correct way of saying "reboot" so as to not stir up the droves of dedicated Trekkies out there.
