Appreciate you posting the picture, since I couldn't get the video to play either, but that looks more like a "Predator" than a Gorn.

Watching that tool "punch-in" the eyebrow hairs made me cringe and wince, then I realized it was un-installed prosthetic and I still winced.
As for the Gorn? Yeah, it looked lame, but as I understand it it is not "a Gorn", so, phew.

In the spirit of Arthur Dent's response to Vogon poetry, I've seen the Gorn, and I've decided I quite liked it. 
I feel a new shape coming on...
This had better not be the Gorn design, cause if it is, I hope JJ knows he is screwing with the wrong reptile obsessed, Gorn-loving crowd here.
Why not? They're using the old TV show as their inspiration for this movie.
Why use the show for inspiration when you can just....use what it used?
Because its from the 1960s. Nothing in the movie is the same as was seen on the TV show, but many are clearly inspired by it.
I like the Gorn.... :s
Both look pretty cool. The Gorn-like creature is obviously intended to get away from the human-sized tyrannosaurus look.
Why would anyone, other than in a fan production?
Even Enterprise improved upon the Tholians.

Thats true (I just got done watching Arena on Youtube)
The over sized T-Rex look did kinda annoy me.

The Castellan does not like humanised-looking reptiles. The Castellan wants to see some really alien-looking aliens.
Even though you knoe it a prostectic (sp) that still looks like it might hurt if they stabbed to far with the needle.
Oh, they weren't punching in the hairs while it was being worn.
Looks more like a cross-breed between a J'em-Hadar and a Gorn if you ask me. *is sickened by mental image of this cross-breeding encounter*
Similar to a Gorn, but are you sure that's supposed to BE a Gorn?
I wouldn't say that the Gorn is horrible, or I should say the creature inspired by Gorn.
The majority of Star Trek aliens are humanoid, but putting a raptor like head on a humanoid body is a little silly.
I like the short horns on it's head, just wish that the jaw was a little further out and had compound eyes... that is, if it were a Gorn, which it isn't.
