This is so more apt considering me and Mrs Dym are watching season 1 of Heroes at the moment!

You know, the Zach looks like he could play a VERY pissed off Vulcan quite well!! He has that totally evil look down to an art form!!

I had no idea Harold from Harold and Kumar was in it!

Hopefully the film itself will be good. I really don't like the casting though, would have been so much better if they had gone for less well known actors (especially those who have played quite stereotypical roles).

...oh and one last thing, maybe it's me but Kirk looks like he has an infeasibly large forehead?

As a die-hard Trekkie I hope this film is good, I really do. That aid, Abrams is annoying me lately tbh. His entire TV/film making credo seems to be to throw in as many questions as possible with little to no answers. I got fed up with Lost because of it and, good as it was, Cloverfield was another example of loads of questions with no answers.

If this tendency infests the Trek film I'm going to be annoyed.

The casting is also a recipe for disaster IMO. Quinto as Spock intrigues me a bit but I think Pegg as Scotty is a huge mistake.

So the new Trek film will be 85 minutes of WOW and then 5 minutes of "Seriously? **** off, thats rubbish."

Regarding Lost, I agree that S1-3 put forward a whole load of questions and it was very frustrating at times but S4 answered a whole lot of them and did a very good job IMO.

As a side note I think that Dr Who is a lot more guilty of building up suspense well then solving it badly. Two parters are normally the worst offenders as we're left with a cliffhanger and then the Doctor solves it by opening a door with his sonic screwdriver etc. The only episode that has really solved something to my satisfaction is the statue episode. Still love the show though

Can understand the concerns about Pegg, I've been watching a lot of his stuff recently (Spaced, Shaun of the Dead, Run Fatboy Run) and he always seems to play the same kind of character but then he does write the stuff himself so he is going to write what he knows. Lets hope the writers for the film write a different character for him.
