    Sounds sort of like the opening of a Bond movie.

    I started reading it and I had to stop because it sounded just too awesome and I have yet to decide how much I want to know.

    One preview said that Cumberbatch's mystery villain approached the family at the hospital offering "healing abilities" to help with their daughter. Which character, if they are, from the series had those kind of powers or access to them?

    EDIT: Admittedly, it did remind me of this, but that doesn't really rule out any other kind of healing powers that could be found in the Trek universe.

    Comingsoon.net just released a rundown of what we see in the upcoming 9 minute preview.

    I tried not to read, but it sounds great. Starting off that way should really give us the idea that the crew has come together to form the family unit we saw on the show. Interesting bit about Cumberbatch's character at the beginning, too.

    That just further heightens my feeling that it is indeed Garth.

    I'm pretty sure that's not how genetic engineering works...

    Then why is he shown using weapons in the teaser? Mitchell wouldn't need guns.

    My money is still on Garth.

    According to Mr. Beaks over at Ain't It Cool News, Giacchino's score quote's the Khan theme at one point in the preview... the one that we all know and love, with an ominous declamatory horn stinger announcing the arrival of the Reliant... wonder if it its just something similar, or a direct quote... interesting... and... DISCUSS :D

    Wait. 'Healing Abilities'...............Well, didn't Deltans have healing abilities? Ilia used her healing abilities on Chekov in 'The Motion Picture' after he was zapped through the console by VGer. Maybe the Deltan males are not bald. Maybe Cumberbatch's character is a enhanced Deltan.

    And Spock apparently says the "the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few" line. Not sure how I feel about that...kind of eye-roll inducing.

    Is it true that we have to wait until "The Hobbit, Part 2" (next Christmas) to see the next nine minutes of "Into Darkness"?

    According to the script and novelization of ST II, Jedda was a Deltan. The actor was allowed to keep his hair when ST II tried to distance itself from TMP, and it wasn't essential that he use his Deltan charms in the storyline.
