Awesome Star Trek Trailer Guarantess Geekasm

Star Trek is great, because it’s a reason why many of us got so into gadgets and technology in the first place. Now that J.J. Abrams & Co. have finally decided to release a full-blown trailer, because it makes May ‘09 seem so far far away.
Too bad no one’s ripped the file and put it up on YouTube. Right now you can only rely on bootlegs, or the real deal over at Apple.com.
Let’s be a little Mac snobbish, shall we? All those who think the new Star Trek will suck, screw you. Let’s give the new makers the benefit of the doubt! Go for a reboot and wipe clean all that established (if slightly contradictory) mythos? Are you mad?
We were discussing this at the office the other day. My feelings are so divided on this.
1. These characters are WAY passed their due date.
2. It looks like the story follows a comic book movie origin plot sort of pattern, and that’s soooo played.
3. Zachary Quinto sends chills up my spine done up as Spock.
4. The trailer rocks!
I’m hoping Abrams manages to accomplish something enduring with this franchise reboot, but I remain skeptical. Regardless, I’ll be near the front of the line when the sci-fi franchise I grew up on returns to theatres.
