It’s only a matter of time now before the first teaser trailer for J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek hits the web (it will be playing in front of Cloverfield this weekend) but for now Moviefone has your first look at the new U.S.S. Enterprise. (Check out a larger version here.)

Stay tuned to the movie’s official site more info and (soon) the first trailer!



  • If they break my heart again, at least they’ll do it looking good!

    I posted a comment about this at rowthree.com (I can’t believe they got the Star Trek scoop up before you Sean! What is the deal!?) that I will copy/paste here out of lazyness:

    It’s so hard. This is written by the writers of Transformers. It’s being directed by the guy behind stupid stuff like Alias. It stars some pretty dubious actors, in roles that seems completely strange (specifically Karl Urban as Bones I can’t wrap my head around). But at the same time… It’s Star Trek. I can’t quit it. I can’t help but be extremely excited that Star Trek is going to be back on the big screen. And it looks high-profile, and high-budget.

    I do miss the Enterprise so very much, and so does the world. I definitely think that if Star Trek had still been on the air in one of the Gene Roddenberry-originated incarnations, 9/11 would not have happened, and the middle-east would be close to peace by now.

    As bad as the people behind the camera are, they are better than the Stuart Baird/John Logan team-up they got the last time around. I don’t know… I hope that this will be good. I can’t take anymore heartache.

    Yawn.

  • That’s inappropriate and offensive. Apologize.

  • I second Greg’ notion.

  • Greg

    I apologize. I am looking forward to the new adventures of Colonel Kirk and Dr. McKay.

  • I’m holding out hope this will be good. Anything will be better than the last three sucky next gen films.

    Henrik, that’s some high-falutin’ rhetoric you’re spewing about Star Trek being able to solve the Middle-East problems!

    One criticism of Star Trek is that Star Trek shows this highly enlightened society, but it doesn’t attempt to explain how it got there. I always like to refer back to a Ray Bradbury story (I think it’s The Toynbee Convector; or maybe not) in which a time traveller comes back and tells everyone that everything in the future will be wonderful and like a paradise. Time passes and sure enough, the future is just like the time traveller says it would be. And the twist is that the person wasn’t a time traveller at all. He just gave everyone a vision and people believed in it so much that they made the vision into reality.

    The funny thing is there are many “bad” people who like Star Trek.

    Henrik, you’ll have to excuse Greg’s lack of interest in Star Trek. I can’t think of anything to say at this point.

  • I can understand and forgive somebody not giving a shit about Star Trek. But if I can not go on a message board and give my honest opinion about murdering wrestlers, then they can not come on a board and give their honest opinion about Star Trek, is what I think!

    Well, it looks good to me! I always found something to like in all the Star Trek movies except the next Gen ones which for reasons i cant explain did nothing for me.This looks like it could be very cool, but i really dont think i have enough info on it yet.Whatever, im genuinely excited about the new Trek film and i think its time for something fresh in the Trek-verse!

  • Greg

    Henrik,

    I think the main difference is that I am clearly making a joke about a science fiction television show whereas you stuck your middle finger in the face of a murdered four year old boy.

    I’m not saying that’s what you intended. I’m saying that’s what it appeared to be to me.

    A movie and the death of a real family are two completely different things and I’m going to assume that you were joking.

  • I was most definitely joking.
