Quick thoughts:

*

Note the background colors, red, gold, blue correspond to the original uniform colors for Uhura, Kirk and Spock

*

Nice touch with the reflection of the delta shield logo in the eyes for Kirk, Spock and Uhura. It looks like there is one there for Nero too, but hard to tell.

*

Spock?s shirt looks very close to original TOS

*

As we knew it would, Quinto looks perfect as Spock

*

Pine has the right look of a young, serious, cocky Kirk

*

Hard to tell for sure, but it looks like Starfleet pointy sideburns are still in style

*

Zoe?s Uhura = HOT

*

Nero looks badass, but what is is going on with his ear? He is reportedly a Romulan, did someone chew the tip off?

*

And as TrekMovie.com reported before, no TNG era bumpy headed action on the Romulans?with the new twist of tattoos!?Fascinating

I have to say I am pretty excited for this movie. I don't mind if it deals with time travel again (I love mobius type plot lines). All I'm worried about is whether it'll make sense with the rest of the movies/shows. JJ Abrams doesn't seem like the usual scrub hollywood writer, and I bet he is taking this script very seriously. So, I think it's a good bet he will stay faithful to the ST canon.

May 2009 can't get here fast enough!

The first cut of JJ Abrams? Star Trek has screened to studio boss Brad Grey and executives on the Paramount lot. One source tells TrekMovie that the cut was ?very impressive?, while another said that the reaction in the screening room was ?far beyond expectations?. We?re still nine months away from release, and only a few of the 1300+ effects shots are remotely finished.

Apparently a theatrical trailer is already cut and edited, but the effects in the trailer have to be completed before it can be attached to a movie. Some people are buzzing that the studio hopes to release the trailer on September 26th with DJ Caruso?s Eagle Eye (Star Trek writers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci produced the film). But we?ve already heard that Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is eyeing that release. So who knows.

Four new character posters from JJ Abrams? Star Trek have been revealed at VegasCon 08. TrekMovie was able to take a photo of the four posters, which like the Comic Con posters, combine to form the Star Trek delta emblem. Clockwise we have John Cho as Sulu, Simon Pegg as Scotty, Karl Urban as McCoy and Anton Yelchin as Chekov. I spent a few minutes in photoshop adjusting the colors and re-framing the image.

Clifton Collins Jr. said that's exactly what he and Eric Bana had to do for J.J. Abrams' much-anticipated Star Trek movie.

?Me and Eric are the new Romulans,? Collins said of their space alien characters in the flick. "They had a linguist come in and invent Romulan!?

We caught up with Collins last night in downtown L.A. at a party for the limited-edition movie posters celebrity tattoo artist Mr. Cartoon has designed for the upcoming Robert De Niro and Al Pacino flick, Righteous Kill.

Collins said his and Bana's Romulan look could have been somewhat inspired by Pirates of the Caribbean. ?We?re space pirates,? Collins explained. ?Think of Johnny Depp as a Romulan.?

And get ready for some surprise appearances in the movie. "There is, but I better not say," Collins said of possible big-star cameos. "There are certain things that as kids growing up, whether it's Star Trek or other shows at the time, all you got to do is really just hear their voice and your heart warms."

Asked if he was referring to characters and actors from the original television series, Collins simply smiled and said, "Maybe."

    • Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe PC gamers have two more games they can add to their library without needing to open their wallets, as the Epic Games Store's freebie offer has just refreshed. That means last week's Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King offer has been replaced by two new games, which happen to be Robobeat and Citizen Sleeper copies. From the duo, Robobeat lands from developer Simon Fredholm, offering a rhythm-based action game. Released only last year, the title puts you into the shoes of Ace, a bounty hunter that's targeting the robot showman Frazzer. The fast-paced title offers movement techniques like wall-running, sliding, and bunny hopping to zoom around while shooting enemies, but the requirement is doing everything to the beat. Outside of built-in tracks, the title also lets players upload their own music to populate its levels too. Next, Citizen Sleeper lands from Jump Over The Age, a sci-fi RPG adventure taking place in a ruined space station where thousands of people are trying to survive. The tabletop RPG-inspired title uses things like dice and clocks to change how the player approaches situations and survives their day-to-day lives. There is a large range of characters to meet with in the station, each with their own storylines and alliances. "You are a sleeper, a digitised human consciousness in an artificial body, owned by a corporation that wants you back," says the developer about the setting. "Thrust amongst the unfamiliar and colourful inhabitants of the Eye, you need to build friendships, earn your keep, and navigate the factions of this strange metropolis, if you hope to survive to see the next cycle." The Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat giveaways are set to run until June 25 on the Epic Games Store, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, new freebies will take its place on the same day. They are supposed to be copies of RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and Voidwrought. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.

    • The Online part hasn't even been announced and probably won't be included on day one. This is a massive singleplayer game.
    • While I agree with all that, it just proves there's an a** built for every seat.
