Well.....it looks like a fun movie....it does not look like Star Trek. I'm going to say it's going to be like a BSG reboot and I will reserve judgment to see how well they pull it off. I like some of what I saw, I think some other parts were too mainstream movie cliche for me.
JJ ABRAMS Enterprise
- Thread starter Jet Beetle
- Start date
After it comes out on video, I'll edit in a scene at the end where we pull back and find the real Captain Kirk (William Shatner) telling a story to cadets at the Academy. That will account for the over the top character changes and story embelishments.
Then it might actually fit.

I think we're WAY beyond that sort of continuity. :lol
Which again goes to the BSG analogy... it's a reboot not a redo of the TOS... Hehehe the hardcore Trek following should be happy they didn't turn Kirk into a girl!!!
Oh... so the ship does turn out to have one familiar angle, after all. :unsure

I liked the trailer, and will definitely catch it.

OK, so between the first and second trailers we're supposed to swallow that the Enterprise was built in an atmosphere with gravity hence the struts holding the sections up etc... :confused
And...were supposed to buy that a young JTK gets his jollies driving Classic Corvettes off of cliffs and diving out of them at the last second. A classic Corvette which in JTK's youth would be well over 200 years old. That would be the equivalent to today's youth getting their Jollies off driving a Conestoga wagon off a cliff, provided you could find one that hadn't disintegrated.
And boy....those glossy ship corridors sure don't help to undo the Galaxy Quest comparisons.
It's looking worse and worse for this one...

Quick shot of Kirk in his Captain's tunic (with a blurry shot of some braid on his sleeve) when he says "Buckle up!" at 1:30.
Probably one of the last shots in the film, I'm guessing...

OK, where to begin, it all looks so delicious... :lol
James, if you're getting a droid find out if it speaks bocce.
I see they're building the new Las Vegas Star Trek Experience.
Where are we going? PLANET TEN! When do we leave? REAL SOON!
Captain the Helm console... it's ridiculously wide.
The space station looks vaguely like Fleet Headquarters from the Franz Joseph Technical Manual...
What's up with the floor lighting, is Kirk hoping to get upskirt shots? What!
Also: in the middle thre, it looks like a roll of duct tape. TELL me it's not a roll of duct tape.
I'm guessing the box in Spock's hand is a Communicator. Nice to see he finally caught up with Nancy Hedford from "Metamorphosis".
Dut dah DAA DAA DAAH DAAAAA dut dah DAAAAA DAAAA...
Hey the pudgy goatee guy in the background has a phaser.
They seem to be watching some bad space movie from the 1980s.
DAMN that's a wide helm console.
They seem to have wandered onto the set of The Andromeda Strain.
Capt.Pike! Maybe he can bring some dignity to these proceedings.
OK where are they now, Starship Troopers?
Give me five, Bones.
Note Kirk's captain rank.
Dut dah DAAAAAH and so on. So how come they're flipped? Are they in the Mirror Universe now?
Uhura finds a use for those edgelit plexi panels.
And, there goes the USS Kelvin to her doom. Goodnight everybody!
