One of the things I don't get is that you look at the first promo posters and compare them to what we're seeing with the movie shots. It's like they massively photoshopped the first posters to make the look more like the original characters. I didn't recognize John Cho from the poster, and the guy playing Scotty looks drastically different from the promo shot, but granted it could just be the angle. And then there's Spock, who doesn't look as polished, baby doll-ish in all images as he does in the poster. Meh, not a big deal really.

doesn't that look like she's wearing an actual com badge or does it just have a weird shadow.

and why is it silver?

Just a shadow, I think. Although the badge may stick out a little.

Starfleet insignia have always been gold or silver, looks like they picked silver this time...

Paramount was supposedly howing off the new trailer for JJ Abrams? Star Trek on a 15 minute loop on the lot on Friday. Here is a brief decryption of what you will see:

* A 60?s style corvette convertible tears down the road, a policeman in hot pursuit.

* The driver, a 13-year-old boy, leaps from the car right as it goes off a cliff.

* Reveal: the policeman has a hover bike

* The Policeman asks ?Who are you? What?s Your Name?? The boy answers ?James Tiberius Kirk!?

* Kirk years later, a young man (Chris Pine) is riding a hover bike

* Voice Over: ?You never found yourself here, you never really fit in. What you choose to do with you?re life is up to you.

* Young kirk stares at a huge futuristic structure, possibly Star Fleet headquarters or the factory where the Enterprise is being constructed

* Maybe you were meant for something different, something? bigger.?

* Shots of Spock as a baby, toddler, and then a 20-something-year-old Spock yelling at Kirk

* Quick cuts of spaceships and lots of other fun stuff

You can read the full description over at AICN. It doesn?t sound exactly what I was expecting, especially the beginning sequence. The trailer will likely be attached to Quantum of Solace when it hits American theaters on November 14th 2008.

      Remarkably based article from Garter - apparently there IS someone working there that actually understands mainframe systems.
