    Not that far away to be honest. I thought it would have been a 2014 release.


    *wonders why it looks like a City17 Poster from Half Life?*

    Looking forward to this, loved the 'first' film! My wife liked it as well so I might actually get to see it in the local cinema (Imax, yay!).

    I reckon the car in the last one was the best yet. I know it will about the oldies but I much prefer them

    Agreed, but I'm good with more trek as long as it doesn't totally stink.

    Poster makes me think of the dark knight.

    I reckon bad guys are something like Secion 31, they all wore black uniforms and this bad guy has been seen in a back outfit with star fleet badge

    Am excited but after watching all of TNG recently I miss Picard

    I just finished watching DS9 - TNG was my favourite but now I've seen every episode, DS9 just tops it for me. Looking forward to the film although I still preferred the likes of First Contact.

    first contact was awesome but the whole time travel mechanic has been done to death, whats wrong with something simple like a coup within the federation, an internal struggle for power or something.

    First contact was the only decent ST film the rest range from meh to "ok, if there really isn't anything else apart from top gear on Dave"....

    I think that most Star Trek stories after TOS were unimaginative. Ironically the Motion Picture had the best storyline of all the films even if pacing was a bit ponderous. TNG had a few good episodes ("Loud as a Whisper", "Yesterday's Enterprise"). But most good plots were ground up and turned into cliché-by-committee sausage (the powerful plot of "But do I have a Soul?" turned into the execrable "Silicon Avatar", and... a Borg queen? Really?!?).

    DS9 worked better because there was more room for friction in a world where people didn't get along all the time. The Enterprise series started out OK but soon turned into a post-9/11 jingo-ist "War on Terror in Space" fest. It could have done something better here, something meaningful that explored the world's reaction to terrorism after 9/11 and explored the origins, values and relationships on both sides by allegory. It could have been more mind-expanding than TOS. Instead it turned into drivel.

    That film poster image is how I imagine a womans nether regions after Kirk has had his way with them.

    I am looking forward to the new movie. Loved Star Trek seeing at at the IMAX was epic.
