I know the bridge looks awful, the christmas lights are none too appealing to me.
All the actors look like they belong on some teen show like smallville and not star trek, especially Pine.
The overly bright and rediculous design is actually reminding me of sci fi's flash gordon from 2007, with a little bit of the phantom menace and the apple ipod store for good measure,lol.
We have not even seen the cgi enterprise yet wait for the trailer and cringe since the Kelvin Looked like a ship designed for a ps2 game.
Zoe Zaldana looks hot as Uhura, still i am not sold on this reboot.
Heroes fans will show up because Sylar is in it.
The one major concession they made to tos fans was having leonard nimoy come onboard to play spock. Reportedly he is only in twenty minutes of the movie. He makes a good spokesman for jj though.
To be fair to JJ i liked Lost and Alias. But MI 3 sucked. This guy just does not have the directing chops to pull off this movie. He is in the same territory of a first time director as Whedon who made Serenity. I'm probably alone in this but i think they are tv guys and not movie directors.
As first time trek Directors go we have the good Star trek II, Meyer, III nimoy, the not so good V shatner.
Why JJ was n. meyer unavailable, why not Nimoy for such a spock centric movie.
Seems to me with the young cast, the fake and expensive cgi and the JJ connection they are going for the same youth market later teens they marketed Cloverfield to, i'm fealing a pg-13 rating.
I mean he did Lost so why not a X-files movie, he made alias why no bond movie, but he is directing Trek something he has no experience with whatsoever.
The screenwriters wrote the horrible script for transformers it's not like we are getting a brilliant script Like Nick Meyers for star trek II.
I fear this movie will be the last nail in the coffin, i mean the screenshots alone vitually make it an accidental parody of tos just like the star wars prequels were of the oot.
Remember Optimus Primes Dialogue in Transformers "my Bad" classic lines like that are up their with Indy 4's "space between the spaces".
