I'm probably going to watch it to see for myself.

Well, there's really no "if" about it. It's on the board and in pre-production. It's now a question of "when." I think they're shooting for a 2008 release, but I could be misinformed. I actually think it's going to do quite well. Definately better than Nemesis did at the box-office. 2008 is what I heard as well, and I hope you're right, hope it does do well or it could be the final nail in the coffin.

I agree with you 100% Speed about new people playing the parts of the characters in original Star Trek. There is a debate whethere it was the actors who made the show a success or the stories.

The writers of the movie have released a few new notes;
Apparently, while this will be a prequel movie, it will not take place in Starfleet Academy. While there may be an academy scene, they say 'how can you have a Star Trek movie w/out a starship? This will be a starship movie'.
They also didn't confirm, or deny that Matt Damon was going to star.
There's also rumors out there now that Gary Sinese may play Dr Bones McCoy.

I really do think the world will end if this movie comes out. Seriously, do they think there are no more GOOD ideas left?
And yes I will go see it. I feel obligated to as a Trek fan.

I still severel dislike the idea of rehashing old characters with new actors but I will go see this too as a Star Trek fan, I just have to hope it doesn't suck as bad as it sounds like it could. Maybe I will end up pleaasantly surprised but I doubt it.

I am absolutely disappointed by the entire idea, They already knew that a prequel was the worst possible way to go with Star Trek, and they want to make a movie about it

Well, since the last post to this topic was in 2007, let's freshen things up a bit.
Given everything we now know about the new film, plus the awesome trailer, and the fact Nimoy and Heroes' Zach Quinto are both playing Spock, what are your thoughts?
I think it's going to be INCREDIBLE.

How much do we know about the film, though? Besides the basics, that it's a prequel to TOS, with the characters from there back in their Academy days, the NCC-1701-Enterprise about to be launched, and the cast, what else is known?

Apperantly the villan's name is Nero, whom is played by Eric Bana. Leonard Nimoy will also star as Spock. That could mean a few things, he could travel to the past, or the movie could be him telling a story, ot us sharing his memory. Other than that, I really don't know much more else, the exact plot seems to be a secret. BTW, here's the trailer:

I like the sound of the transporter mixed in with the music at the end of that trailer.
