I really like this idea. basically getting the "nods" to tos out of the way in the beginning scene, then on to something new. and seriously, something new.
Something original we haven't seen before would be nice, maybe a bit more focus on characterization so we can elevate the reboot beyond a teenage novel.
I had a dream last night were, instead of the Borg, it was the "Conspiracy" aliens. The dream was really about the release of the teaser. Remmick is played by Ralph Fiennes. He's been put on trail by the Klingons. The court is much more grandiose than it was in TUC--more like stadium sized. Remmick is standing at the center and the Klingon prosecutor is yelling at him. Remmick acts basically like Fiennes's character in In Bruges. Klingon guy gets pissed and whips out his bat'leth and puts it to Remmick's throat. He doesn't like that, so one of his hands transforms into a giant pincer and crushes the Klingon's head.
