To number 4:

IMO Chris Pine is not the type of actor who is going to harp on endlessly about the roles he plays…this puts him in a different category then the rest of the cast and past actors that have play Star Trek characters
This doesn’t mean he’s not going to make a good or even great Kirk, it just means he’s going to make sure he’s not typed cast into this role or roles like it.
Career wise, this is a wise move.
Even when promoting his other films, he doesn’t seem to give a lot of interviews.
He may not be a chatty actor off screen.

#39… I stand by my post… based on what I’ve seen of both of them when interviewed.

can’t help but see such a resemblance to Quinto and Jack Klugman…

so much so that i will share the lyrics I have wrote to tha’ original CSI show: Quincy

Oh crap, here comes Quincy
He is gunna get me
Cuz I left a dead body where he can plainly see

Now he’ll make his science work
To see just how I killed that jerk
I knew I shouldn’t have commited murder!

Oh, no here comes Quinto
He is gunna pinch me…. (I passes out) *

After seeing quinto in heroes, now he comes across as an evil crazy guy….

I cant imagine him as spock… in fact my stomach squirms when I think of it…

Its gonna be hard for the actor to change that around.

Also I think it was the strangeness and angled face of nimoy that gave that extra alien touch to the role… He was skinny and taller than kirk…

Gosh.. I think basically they should clone Nimoy and put the fetus in a fast growing chamber, then somehow (perhaps with a technological mind meld) transfer Nimoys brain into the new body.

THATS THE SPOCK I WOULD LOVE!! HA

PS, while we are at it, lets body clone the whole old cast back.
I think that would be canon! LOL

#38–The reason we heard from Quinto is that he was interviewed at Starfest, where he appeared with Nimoy. If/when Chris Pine is out promoting another project, he will undoubtedly be asked about Star Trek. Otherwise, we may have to wait until STXI is “officially” being promoted.

Hold your Targs…

I think the reason we are seeing more from Quinto than we are Pine is that Quinto is much more informed and articulate about the show and his character than Pine. Pine comes off a lot like Shatner does in his interviews… kind of clueless about ST. But, we still loved Kirk, so it might work out okay after all.

#20 – I think it’s just a matter of Quinto already being popular with sci-fi fans for his work on Heroes.

#25 – Best. Book. Title. EVAR.

#30 – Pine by Design is the new furniture line from Broyhill, isn’t it? ;-)
