Eric Bana as baddie Nero

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."
