This trailer gives me a bad feeling about this movie. To save time, I will give you all a link to a video somebody made, and he has mostly the same feelings about the video as I do. YouTube - Star Trek Trailer Review
i totally agree with this guy ... i'm seeing the picture, hearing the sound >> no problems what so ever processing the given data but when my brain tries to connect the audio/visual input i received with the name star trek i encouter a "red screen fatal error 0x000052e33f1c" saying to the people at paramount to go f**king rape another genre ...
and i'm not a brainless moron who constantly complains about how trek is being milked out by paramount as i see the difficult implication of a money-obsessed industries that has to keep itself going ... i'm fine with that (!) but spiting in the face of countless millions of trek-fans (and i for my part am sure that most "already-trek" fans will hate this crap) will not get them anywhere near the big PLUS they're trying to cash with it ...
it looks like freakin oc:california in space, only that i'll be expecting johnny cho to get up any moment tell chris pine and the rest of the crew to f**k off and the get some dope from sickbay (which bones of course is keeping only for medical purposes) ... eversince they went with trek for the "new and trendy" mainstream thing, things started to get screwed
i contend that we are both atheists. i just believe in one fewer god than you do. when you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours

I don't think the mechanics behind time travel is the issue with people, but the fact the mechanics are used as a central part of the story. It's something the last few trek series are guilty off, an alternate universe/timeline episode allowed writers to do a lot of off-the-wall stuff such as blowing up the main ship/killing main characters.
I think many people just wanted a canonical story for the movie and are now disappointing to found out it's another "alternative" story rather than actual history of the trek we know.
That said, trekkies are quick to complain. If it's not the nacelles being 5 centimeters too long it's the fact Kirk is not played by "that old guy". Hell, some people are even complaining the new set is not reminiscent enough of the ol embedded crt/peper mache props of old.
No, what is going to kill trek would not be this reimagination but the inability to change with the times. You think the old battlestar galactica would have had a chance? :lol:

Well, its not an alternate universe till like the Kelvin is destroyed(2330's?)...which sets things in motion. Remember what Wolf 359 did for Starfleet? They developed ships that would have been built only during and after the Dominion war and not years before(Intrepid) aswell as some that probably would never exist until the 25th century(Defiant, Sovvie). That is what happens here. All of those Klingon and Federation ships that fall to the Narada causes the Constitution class and therefore the Enterprise to be built years before(2350's) it should have been. Which also explains the TMP improvments that we see. We already know that the original 1701 Enterprise was built on Earth(the plaque says so) but, in this situation it would be Iowa and not San Fran. due to that San Fransisco would be the first target or one of the first. Building it in Iowa only helps the secrecy of the project because then very few would know about it.
This totally screws everything over IMO. If Kirk never served aboard the Lexington, then why does it state such in TOS? I really think sci-fi shows should stay away from time travel if they can't get it right.
