So trekmovie confirms the planet destroyed in this movie. It proves the break they are making from continuity.
The new trailers look like a action movie that hollywood regularly puts out in the summer and completely generic. Generic and expensive.
Star Trek is supposed to be so much more than just a movie of the week or month, or a dumb action flick for guys who like naked chicks and football. I like those things too, but star trek is supposed to make you wonder and be thinking mans science fiction when it is done right.
JJ Abrams promised an updated Trek that was a realised future with plausible science in its science fiction, Instead we get water pipes in engineering straight out of the early 20th century. This is supposed to be the 23rd century. Will they have apple stores and itunes and ipods in the twenty third century, how about bad actors who look like they are from a teen soap drama.
Naval Vessels and submarines in the nineties look far more high tech than what is shown in pictures of this movie.
This is a dumb action flick like Independence Day, Or Starship Troopers. And it does not even have the heart of First Contact that was also an action flick.
Still That would be as laughable as comparing the acting Talents of Patrick Stewart to Chris Pine.
