The new trailer looks and sounds great; it actually gives me chills. Also starting from really the very start allows better, fresh character development (like the new batman series). will be interesting to see if this movie is a start to a new series of star trek movies that dont include the original cast members
Ed, this is how I'm seeing it too.... I think a lot of people were pretty sick and tired of Batman but look what happened when Nolan took that tired act and re-imagined it... he hit paydirt. (What is paydirt exactly anyway? haha)
Also I might add, that I am a HUGE fan of TOS but I am not so blindly loyal that I could not be open to a new way of telling the story. Story is king, so as long as they are staying true to the premise of what Trek was about - the original Trek, not the later stuff - and as long as they capture some the essense of the mantra "To seek out new life and new civilizations - then I'm fine with it.
I know at least a couple people that have never been interested in Star Trek that are pumped for this movie.
