Yes. I say get Akiva Goldsman, add some gay subtext between Kirk and Spock and uniforms that show nipples!

Re: IGN: Star Trek is very good, but the plot is a mess
It's still one of the better TREK movie reviews since 1996 when you really put it into perspective. Most reviewers were unimpressed with INS and NEM if they didn't outright hate them. To see anything stellar(no pun intended)about a TREK movie after all the franchise has been through in this decade says a lot.

If that means Simon Pegg busts through the turbolift doors asking to borrow a shot glass of scotch, I could go for that once or twice.

Personally, I thought this excerpt was very interesting:
I would take that any day.

That movie would have been good if Tim Robbins wasn't in it...
There I said it too.
That scene where the news anchor showed Tom Cruise the video footage was impossible. If there had really been a huge EMP in the area, it would have destroyed all the magnetic bonds between the particles that comprise the tape in VHS/Beta cassettes.
Hey, at least 'Independence Day' was a better modern remake of 'War of the Worlds' than that Spielberg-Cruise abortion from a few years back.

And Kevin Smith said in the recent past it was the best action/fantasy film he'd seen since DARK KNIGHT.

You know, I agree, I thought that movie was great until the tim robbins part...

The fiery runaway train was awesome. That first person to get zapped by the Death Ray was rather shocking too. Spielberg can do good work but, lately, he's been throwing in crap that doesn't need to be there.

OK, I'm late to this thread... but I just had to say that when I read urbandk's review way back on the first page and got to this part:
I read "pathos" as "Porthos."
Which suggested quite a different film than what I'm expecting.

Just came back from the UK gala premiere last night.
Wow, what a movie. It´s hypnotic, fast, visual, very contemporary and the most realistic Trek so far. And it deserves Oscar nominations for editing and photography.
You are not gonna process this movie intellectually because JJ Abrams goes straight for the emotional and unconscious part of the mind. You either gotta be very relaxed and open (or drunk
) when you see this movie. Don´t sit around analysing everything like the haters have done.
And you gotta see it in a movie theatre. Don´t wait for the dvd you will regret it.
And people that have said there isn´t a Star Trek message in it are dead wrong. But it is aimed at people born in the 80s and 90s. People that claim that there isn´t one have no idea what is going on in the world.
I think this movie will either be huge at the box office or fail totally. Because I felt that how this movie is told and presented may be ahead of its time.
