    Just find this pic of Russian whizz kid and I've noticed that 1st we know he's in red but why the command division symbol .? May be a prop mistake or he's still in command division.?? Hopefully this will be explained in the film why he is in red well I'm hoping so ??? [​IMG]

    That's because your image is photoshoped. In the original he's still wearing the yellow

    What I really want to know is why JJ felt compelled to cast someone with curly hair in the role of a character who obviously has canonically straight hair. Seriously, who does he think he is? That's hair-washing, JJ, and it's NOT acceptable to any true Star Trek fan.

    Because...

    ... Kirk reassigns him as Chief of Engineering after Scotty resigns his post because of a "disagreement."

    Chekov's what, 18 or 19 now? Bit young to be the chief engineer. Hell, half the engineering staff are probably more experienced officers and engineers than he is.

    "We shall now have tea and speak of absurdities" - Love is a Many-Splendored Thing, 1955

    I feel this way in the last movie, and I feel it more from what I have seen and watched for this movie -

    In Star Trek II, Admiral Kirk says,

    I feel that this quote has been taken to an absurd extreme.

    This brings up for me another quote from that classic Trek film, and it is again from the admiral,

    So, what is the reason for having a "boatload of children" in this new film?

    Those "children" were graduates of Starfleet Academy. Men and women in their early to mid-twenties. Chekov is an anomaly. A whiz kid. A prodigy.
