I just saw a trailer for the new J.J. Abrams Star Trek movie for the first time last night. I really hope work does a screening of this movie, because there is no way I’m going to pay money to go see something that looks like it will suck as hard as this movie does. The trailer didn’t convey any sense of a plot from what I saw. I got the impression that the movie would be “How can we use X as an excuse to blow something up? Sweet! Let’s do that!”
On a somewhat related note: IMDB lists Simon Pegg, and John Cho as Scotty, and Sulu, which I just can’t picture. I just keep thinking of Shaun of the Dead, and Harold & Kumar go to White Castle, which is not what I really what I associate with Star Trek.
