This is a “B” movie out of the gate. Basic crap. With all the millions, couldn’t even get an A-list star. The Hulk got Edward Norton. Iron Man got Robert Downey, Jr. The acting and the thoughtfulness of the writing make the movie. Star Trek gets who???? Wynona who? Chris who? Damned cheapskate, low-budget, mind-sucking hacks. Yes you Abrams. And why is Batman welding the Enterprise in the teaser trailer? (The guy with the arc welder.) I thought the Enterprise hull was supposed to be made of duranium. Sorry, you’re gonna need a bigger blowtorch! This whole project reeks. I wouldn’t be surprised if it goes straight to video.

533 – Ahh, but as we’ve seen, “asinine” can very much be in the eye of the beholder. :D

Maybe it will be an older Spock remembering what it was like in the good old days back at the Academy. Passing a tall tale on to some young Federation citizens. Just a guess.

#529 – Bad example. Seinfeld plays himself, Shatner does not.

#529—Oh God, No!!!! Not another Shat-head!

What leads you to believe JJ does not wish to “faithfully honor TOS”? Because he does not wish to tell a story about ressurecting a dead man once again in a Star Trek movie?

Jerry’s show was called “Seinfeld”.
Star Trek was never called “Shatner”, nor was it ever all about him. He was not even Star Trek’s first star–Leonard Nimoy was.
James Kirk was captain of the Enterprise–not William Shatner.

Are you a Trek fan, or just a Shatner fan?

[...] Um dos roteiristas do filme de Jornada nas Estrelas, Roberto Orci, voltou a ter um breve bate-papo com os internautas do site The Trek Movie. Orci respondeu questões a respeito da canonicidade da franquia e sua importância para a história do filme, além de dizer se ela se enquadrará ou não nessa nova visão de Jornada por J. J. Abrams.

It just seems that Shatner IS the star of Star Trek. TOS clearly says ’starring William Shatner’. Would you revive Seinfeld & recast Jerry? Shatner is Kirk, why is there even a debate on this subject?

If J.J. Abrams doesn’t wish to faithfully honor TOS, then why go backwards instead of forwards? I think this is very disrespectful to Mr. Shatner, a man who at one point slept in his car because he was so heavily typecasted as Kirk. I think he deserves better in his golden years.
