Post official ULTRA nerdy Star Trek discussion/speculation
So we're supposed to believe that the Enterprise was built under gravity, in an atmosphere? WTF?

Which version? I've hardly watched any trek stuff. In the movie it was built in space wasn't it? with everyone teleporting on and off? Sometimes getting all scrambled.

I've only seen one pic of the supposed new enterprise but how do you know it's the real thing and/or built under gravity? What if it's the proto and it fails?

I don't follow star trek..but my buddy is a die hard and so I'm just wondering where you got this conclusion.

For those of you who haven't seen it yet, the teaser for J.J. Abrams' Star Trek is being shown in front of Cloverfield.

And yes, stick welders!

Not joking at all. Maybe the advance screening didn't have it, but when I saw Cloverfield yesterday, the last trailer right before the movie started was the teaser for J.J. Abrams' upcoming Star Trek movie.

Leonard Nimoy did the voice-over for it.

yeah, advance screenings usually have no trailers.

and she didn't know that J.J. Abrams was doing the Star Trek movie. I don't know how she missed that info at Comic-Con. she was too busy standing in the Pushead line I guess.

The metal suit prevents Downey Jr. from putting a spike in his vein.

Inspired casting, to be sure. (I'm actually looking forward to it).

And, as much as I'm not a Star Trek fan (at all) I thought casting the Sylar guy from Heroes as Spock was great. Plus, Simon Pegg as Scotty! That's gotta be a dream come true for him.

YEah the trailer was pretty awesome and I dont even like trek.

But I agree the Ironman trailer looked great and I think Jr. will make a perfect Tony Starks.

Sweet! I can't wait to see it.

Edit: Just saw it. A definite tease, but very cool.

The teaser was pretty spectacular, as teasers go. For me it was a little surreal hearing Nimoy say "Space, the final frontier" instead of Shatner. Allegedly old Bill is royally ticked off at not having anything to do with this movie. I wonder what the story is there?

The Enterprise will encounter an intelligent, giant alien toupee and they felt Shatner might feel conflicted when it came time to open phasers on the sucker.
