FUCKING FAGGOTS
WOW! by ewokstew	Nov 12th, 2007 06:58:43 PM
That is scarily Nimoy-esque. Despite the other cast choices I'm not too thrilled about, Abrams did good on this one.
I WON! by irrelevntelefant	Nov 12th, 2007 07:02:05 PM

IESB has some good spy at Paramount by SpencerTrilby	Nov 12th, 2007 07:03:13 PM
Earlier this year they dominated pretty much all things Iron Man, now Trek... And I'm pretty sure they put some juicy shit out of the Indy set as well. Coïncidence? Oh, and Quinto looks "pointy" enough, indeed. I'm not a Trekkie by any means, and I don't really care for this flick one way or the other, but it looks like Spock. Nice work.
Not bad. He does look quite a bit like Nimoy by moondoggy2u	Nov 12th, 2007 07:03:34 PM
Still not jazzed. How jaded is that?
Excellent by Heckles	Nov 12th, 2007 07:04:25 PM
Now that is a good spy photo. Looks good from a distance.
Gay Gay Abrams by Gil Brooks	Nov 12th, 2007 07:05:07 PM
The sideburns shouldn't be that thick, and the ears should be more pointed. This movie is going to SUCK!

gay spock out for an early evening stroll. Tell me- do you like my pointy ears, boy?
I'm sorry, but all I see is Sylar... by www.revyou.tv	Nov 12th, 2007 07:08:01 PM
With all due respect to TV actors, it's hard to make the move to film. Karl Urban (Pathfinder, Bourne 2) would have been a cooler Spock. Here it's kinda like your buddy from school is playing the role, giving it a bit of a B-level vibe. TV actors + a TV director might = wait for the DVD...

Why are you apologizing, revyou.tv? by slone13	Nov 12th, 2007 07:22:41 PM
Incidentally, he looks exactly like Nimoy to me. Also, I concur with PickedUp wholeheartedly. The multiple daily Trek posts have already become rather annoying.

revyou...this isn't a real movie... by Bronx Cheer	Nov 12th, 2007 07:32:19 PM
It's Star Trek. TV on a bigger screen is still TV. Of all the films, only two got even close to being "cinematic." I'm surprised they didn't cast Zach Braff as McCoy.
Looks Spocktacular by odysseus	Nov 12th, 2007 07:35:19 PM
Ear-ily Spock-like.
'He's sure got the look.' by MeshGearFoxx	Nov 12th, 2007 07:38:37 PM
of course he has the look. It's called makeup. I have a feeling the makeup department kinda knew what spock's look was before starting this film.
www.revyou.tv by zooch	Nov 12th, 2007 07:44:09 PM

Spock was a renegade from another Galaxy! by Orionsangels	Nov 12th, 2007 08:37:26 PM

If Quinto can pull off some of Nimoy's mannerisims as Spock (an I bet he can) it will be surreal.

so is vulcan really hot? by Staldo	Nov 12th, 2007 11:00:51 PM
Is the joke here that Vulcan is a hot planet, so that Spock needs to wear two layers of wool when at academy on Earth? Wow. Full-blooded vulcans must need parkas.
Actually, Spock is dressed like Rattigan by moondoggy2u	Nov 12th, 2007 11:11:30 PM

I just noticed that Spock's ears have a 20 degree upturn on the tips! In the original series they had a 22 degree upturn and nothing less. SCREW YOU ABRAMS!!!! See how you all sound? Pointy-eared douche bags.
Looking good! by TattooedBillionaire	Nov 13th, 2007 12:38:02 AM
I'm not sold that this is going to be a great Trek film, but I can be happy that they did some mighty fine casting for young Spock. Quinto's looking good!

Both by how much like Nimoy this Sylar guy looks and at the fact that these pics have been up for almost 4 hours without a 'cease and desist'. I guess Paramount is considering these low priority or they're slipping.
Looks good to me by The Founder	Nov 13th, 2007 01:42:33 AM
So what if Abrams is doing a refreashing or changing something cause if not anything else the Star Trek universe needs some new life breathed into it.

What causes Vulcans' pointy ears? by Boris Baddenov	Nov 13th, 2007 03:39:53 AM
Is it the diet of Plomeek soup, or that maddening mating ritual Pon Farr? Or is Spock just pissed because Captain Kirk, with his warp-drive libido, has attempted to shag nearly anything female (except maybe T'Pau and that cavern-burrowing Horta)?
Redfive! by messi	Nov 13th, 2007 05:14:02 AM
I care. I'm not a big star trek fan, i think i have seen 4 episodes of the entire franchise and never seen the movies. but this is looking good, has me interested and for sure it will own the prequels.

Why are they Re-imagining OST again? by DarfurOnTheRocks	Nov 13th, 2007 08:19:57 AM
I am just wondering because there is very little wrong with Classic Trek. If they jettison established canon and make Spock a full Vulcan then this is not Trek for me.

He just looks like another young Vulcan, to me. I don't see the resemblance to Nimoy, at all. If anything,Sylar more resembles Eli Roth. Oh, a quick comment about the plotline ovat at IESB. If that's what the film is about, it sounds interesting. However, i fail to see how this would revive TREK. Are we talking about going on with this cast? If that's the case, then that's just plain nuts. As a one off, this could be quite interesting. I'm just having trouble seeing how it's going to breathe any new life.
Generations Collide by cowboyone	Nov 13th, 2007 08:50:58 AM
This will be very interesting. I'm old ... and was never a huge Trek fan, but I'm stoked to see what Abrams does with it. But the questions is, will "the kids" want to see it ... because the "Heroes" cast members are in it?! Or because the "Lost Guy" is writing/directing? The post about "seeing nothing but Sylar" cracked me up. Abrams is a genius.

Those of you bagging on the new Trek by queerfilmjunkie	Nov 13th, 2007 01:21:08 PM
Don't you realize that only about 25% of the Trek movies and TV episodes are any good? To expect this to be some knock your socks off great film is a bit of a reach. Which of the Star Trek movies are great films? Seriously? Even the most died in the wool Trekkie must admit that alot of the Trek stuff is absolute shit. TOS, TNG, Voyager and DSN all had their good episodes and their bad and Enterprise sucked donkey balls. Some of the movies were good, others mediocre and others awful. Star Trek has always been a mixed bag, so why are you suddenly demanding perfection. Just be happy that they are trying to reboot the franchise. It might actually be good.
The best bit of casting thus far by Reel American Hero	Nov 13th, 2007 01:25:36 PM
So it seems they've got Spock down perfectly in this new one at least. I'm kind of iffy about the rest of the cast, but I'm still waiting to see a trailer of any sort once it's ready before I'll say this movie will suck or rock.

The Trek property is alot like Star Wars... by conspiracy	Nov 13th, 2007 01:43:48 PM
Both had the potential for greatness. They could have had deep involving plot lines and emotion laden scripts that were relatively well acted ...and we saw hints of this Empire and Kahn. Unfortunately we got pure crap in the end....manic toy selling CGI in place of plot...and 2 hour long TV shows on the big screen with all the depth of a dried lake and acting best suited to a typical Sci-Fi channel produced feature. It is simply God Damned Sad....and I just don't see how this new Trek will change all of that..especially given that this is the director that brought us those shining examples of directoral and writing prowess; Gone Fishin' and Armageddon.

Though I'm hyped by the casting of Spock I'm a little less enamored by the rest of the cast. After all, who can replace Shatner or Jefferey Hunter? It appears even Abrams hasn't found the answer to that question judging by his other choices.
Wow! It looks like Spock by kirttrik	Nov 13th, 2007 02:33:50 PM

When I want to really relax, I slot that one into the DVD player and skip to the extended scene where the Enterprise flies through the V'ger cloud... and flies through the V'ger cloud... and flies through the V'ger cloud... and we see close-up reaction shots of the entire 500+ crew members... and the Enterprise flies through the V'ger cloud... and ... I have a nice looong nap! Or what about Star Trek 5: Shatner's Folly? 'Nuff said, there. Or Generations with Kirk's epic death scene, "It's... been... fun!... Oh! Shakespearean in depth, that one. Or the one where they were fighting aliens who go to the same plastic surgeon as Cher and Goldie Hawn... or, err... something. I won't even mention Nemesis because that just wouldn't be a fair fight. No kiddies, there's been a LOT of really, really BAD Trek films, wake the f**k up!

"Good" vs. "Bad" Trek Movies by bswise	Nov 13th, 2007 03:41:41 PM
The way I see it, there have been exactly three "good" (as in, decently entertaining) Trek movies: II, III, and IV. Everyone gives VI a pass, because it was the swan swong of the old farts--and it was fun--but a Klingon Christopher Plumber spewing Cliff's Notes Shakespeare quotes doth not a good screenplay make. Everyone also gives First Contact a pass, becuase it had some serious Data and Picard on Borg action, but it was also two completely ridiculous and absoloutely imlausible movies for the price of one. (Hey, Borg go back in time? Hey, how bout next time, Borg blow up whole planet.) As much a hack methinks "Jar-Jar" McAbrams to be, there really is nowhere for this franchise to go but up.
About Kirstie...isn't it somewhat Ironic by conspiracy	Nov 13th, 2007 03:59:45 PM
that she didn't do Star Trek III because she didn't want to be seen as a Sci-Fi actress/involved with yet another Sci-Fi endevour, yet she is all to happy to live her every day life by following the Sci-Fi ramblings of a 3rd rate Sci-Fi novelist? All Hail Lord Xenu!
Worst Trek ever... by DocPazuzu	Nov 13th, 2007 04:01:58 PM
...is Insurrection. Yes, even worse than Nemesis - by far.
Screw you guys. The Voyage Home was the best one. by 3 Bag Enema	Nov 13th, 2007 04:35:37 PM
It was most like the series, and light comedy is the Shat's forte. Montalban with a plastic chest is entertaining and all, but it's too unRoddenberry. I'm going to go kill myself now.
The Voyage Home was goofy by I Dunno	Nov 13th, 2007 05:32:44 PM
and "un-Roddenberry" can be good. The first season of TNG was Roddenberry with total control and it was fucking gay.
Nice to see Billy Zane's acting again by seppukudkurosawa	Nov 13th, 2007 05:59:09 PM

Paramount should release a press statement by Wonderboys	Nov 13th, 2007 06:08:43 PM
with pictures of the entire cast, before some bad quality leaked pictures like that begin spreading over the internet and giving a poor first impression of the movie.
Quinto looks allright by Wonderboys	Nov 13th, 2007 06:10:17 PM
I hope he get the character personality as well as the looks.
Make sure Winona doesn't get the ears... by Monkey_King	Nov 13th, 2007 06:49:54 PM
fucking Variety screwed up and called Spock's human mother Amanda a Vulcan. WTF?!?!
wasn't kim cattrall a vulcan too? by ironic_name	Nov 13th, 2007 08:29:36 PM
shes even more load-worthy now.

Justin Chatwin is GOKU. by HueyFreeman	Nov 13th, 2007 10:42:47 PM
And James Marsters is Piccolo. For you Dragonball Z fans out there.
Why is he puckering his lips? by J-Dizzle	Nov 13th, 2007 11:28:32 PM
Give me a Vulcan kiss!
Quinto seems like a good choice. by kabong	Nov 14th, 2007 12:29:56 AM
But the lip pucker and the swishy cape don't belong on a starship. Maybe part of Starfleet Academy hazing ritual, the Epsilon Eridani frat. Will the crew be wearing boots made for walking on the ship? That always seemed strange.
Kim Cattrall WAS a Vulcan... by Kid Z	Nov 14th, 2007 08:23:07 AM
... an evil blonde Vulcan with a 1992-era-Hillary headband and shaved-off sideburns.
why is he wearing a grandma sweater by aicndoesntwantmorecowbell	Nov 14th, 2007 08:42:14 AM
i dont watch star trek but is he supposed to be wearing that?
I Don't Think that JJA can top TOS version of Trek. by DarfurOnTheRocks	Nov 14th, 2007 12:07:45 PM
Sorry, people are getting hyped up for no absolute reason. JJ will NEVER capture the chemistry of Kirk-Spock-McCoy. I suspect that he wants to tap into the preexisting characterizations of Trek, but then go along and call it a reboot. Abrams, your reimagining mean nothing to me.
You know actually they weren't miniskirts... by Kid Z	Nov 14th, 2007 03:18:44 PM
... they were those culotte things... sort of a skirt/shorts chimera (look it up). Basically shorts with flaps on top to make 'em resemble a skirt. My guess is they were meant to prevent Pipple's "panty shot, panty shots." And besides, they all wore those thick-ass black pantyhose under them anyway. It was the 60s and people were real prudes back then.

This just has "All Wrong" written all over it. Nuf said.
Quinto is the only good casting by JoeSixPack	Nov 14th, 2007 10:13:14 PM
As for the rest... puke
Especially good when compared to Spock from "The Cage" pilot. by Bob Loblaw Law Blog	Nov 27th, 2007 02:17:15 AM
Considering that Spock in The Cage is supposed to be about 13 years in the past. http://tinyurl.com/2p84dh
that's not THE CAGE by m2298	Nov 28th, 2007 04:06:35 PM
it's from the second pilot "Where No Man Has Gone Before". This is what you want: http://memory-alpha.org/en/wik i/Image:Spock2254.jpg
