Eight new images from J.J. Abrams’ upcoming “Star Trek” featuring the major characters that we’ve come to know and love, only younger, because the only thing Hollywood loves more than making money and giving themselves awards is de-aging their movies. You get the feeling that Hollywood’s preoccupation with prequels is simply because they hate growing old, and wish they could go back in time and do it all over again. But maybe I’m giving them too much credit. It’s probably just about the cash.

Two More Star Trek 11 TV Spots
Two more spots for J.J. Abrams’ “Star Trek 11″, because you can never have too much of a young Kirk looking and acting all cocky, and Eric Bana as a heavily tattooed Romulan who looks and sounds like Kirk has been eating his lunch since they were in elementary school, and now is his time to strike back. But when he finds out Kirk isn’t that easy, even as a young dude, the Romulan starts to get that shaky feeling in his boots again. Or at least, that’s what comes across from these new two Trek 11 TV spots.
Pictures And Phasers From Star Trek In Berlin
All the cool kids were in Berlin at the Sony Center at the Potsdamer Platz yesterday to unveil a little indy movie called “Star Trek”, soon to invade your city and covert your impressionable local youth to a meaningless life of the deeply nerdy. We have the cool pics, some in black and white and oh, an Abrams signed, fully retro, old is new, Phaser.
Diora Baird Out Of Costume
Diora Baird will be featured in a lovely green hue when she appears as an Orion (probably not a slave) in next months Sci-Fi pilgrimage destination “Star Trek” After the jump we have a few pictures from Zoo, a lovely British magazine that obviously appreciates the finer sights in Science Fiction.
Star Trek TV Spot: Not Your Father’s Trek
According to this new Star Trek spot, J.J. Abrams’ version of Trek should not be mistaken for the one your father used to like when he was a nerd. Of course, if you’ve seen any of the gazillion or so Trek clips that have popped online so far (and posted on this site), you already know that Abrams’ Trek is probably as un-Trek as you can get and still have the name “Star Trek” in the marquee.
Sci-Fi Babe Spotlight: Zoe Saldana
According to actress Zoe Saldana, she’s part Dominican, Lebanese, Indian, Irish, and Jamaican. Or just to make it easier, she says she just tells people she’s from Queens. We don’t really care where she’s from or what her ethnic make-up is, we just care that she’s a damn fine actress, a damn fine looking one at that, and she’s in two of this year’s biggest sci-fi flicks: J.J. Abrams’ Trek reboot and James Cameron’s “Avatar”.
More Star Trek Images
J.J. Abrams’ Trek reboot doesn’t officially open in the States until May 8, but it sure feels like this thing has been opening for the last month or so, going by all the promo stuff that’s beaming online every single day. A ton of clips, a ton of images, and here are some more images from the movie. It still doesn’t look or feel like a Trek movie to me, but then again, I guess that’s the point.
Another Star Trek Clip: Spock Wants Answers, Dammit
I get the feeling this is the part of the movie where Spock (Zachary Quinto) loses his Vulcan cool and tries to choke the crap out of Kirk (Chris Pine) via the trailers. Then again, from what I’ve seen, young Kirk seems to be a bit of a cocky dick, so maybe Spock had no choice but to choke some humble pie into the tool. Anyways, latest clip from Abrams’ totally un-Trek like Trek reboot after the jump.
Karl Urban Gets Dr. Leonard McCoy
This is the first extended peek of Karl Urban’s take on the character of Dr. McCoy and he seems to have really nailed it.
Video Footage From Sneaky Alamo Star Trek Showing
We return again to Austin, Texas. This time we come with mighty footage of the event itself, where a sneaky screening of “Star Trek” was shown at a supposed Wraith of Khan showing. As I mentioned earlier, Spock himself was there to introduce the movie. Grown men were seen to weep. I myself tear up at the very thought of seeing the logical one in person.
Wraith Of Khan Screening In Austin Just A Cloaking Device For The Real Thing
A screening for Star Trek 2: The Wraith Of Khan, in Austin Texas, at the supposedly amazing Alamo Drafthouse, turned out to be a clever ruse to actually present the first public screening of everyone’s favorite pointy earred, brow lifting, full frontal phaser epic “Star Trek”.
Another Trek Trailer Plus Detailed Shots Of The Enterprise Bridge
We have yet another TV spot with new footage from “Star Trek”. In this version, we get a tighter glimpse of the young rebel Kirk and his bar fighting abilities, etc. Along with this trailer we have some shots from the official Trek movie site of the bridge.
New Batch of Star Trek 11 Images
With its May 8 release date coming up fast, you’re starting to see and hear a whole lot about J.J. Abrams’ Trek reboot. Some new batch of images from the movie that I haven’t seen before have also landed online, including the very tantalizing view of Rachel Nichols (or is that Diora Baird?) as a green-skinned Orion. Endymi0n has already posted a couple of the new images here, but here are the rest of them.
Orion Slave Girl Picture Makes Me Green With Envy
Orion girls may or may not be easy. We’ll have to see for ourselves when the new “Star Trek” movie hits on May 8. Orion girls sure are pretty though. MTV scored this picture and a few others, including a Spock to Spock gathering of the minds. Click within to see the good stuff.
