    This is what I got out of the trailor:

    1. The Enterprise is going to take a serious beating.
    2. The cast came back.
    3. The villain appears to be a fairly young human dude.
    4. The villain seems to have a grudge against Earth, Starfleet Academy, or San Francisco (where the academy is located)

    I'm definitely going to watch this.

    I am so excited that there is finally a trailer out for this movie! Love Benedict Cumberbatch and I'm looking forward to whatever villain he's playing. Won't be seeing the Hobbit in IMAX, so I'll just have to hope those 9 minutes show up on youtube or something :C Looking forward to seeing the cast reprise their roles and delve more into the characters.

    EDIT: A friend just sent me this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_fftTenzKQ

    It's longer than the one first posted by only 14 seconds (start at 00:55 to see where they added something) but enough to make my head explode going 'whaaaaaat o_O'

    +1 for Gary Mitchell. Or some new villain that draws from some combo of baddies.

    Now I'm glad I chose to buy tickets for The Hobbit in the IMAX theater rather than in the 48fps. I can't wait to see the 9 minute preview!!!

    Honestly in the voice over I thought he sounded like Picard. That would be a damn *kitten* awesome villain, a Young Mirror Universe Picard.


    I'll be over here writing my fanfic.

    I can't tell if Benedict Cumberbatch is trying to hide his English accent or not, and it's really bugging me!

    Howie, send me that FanFic. I SO can't wait for this movie!! This and Iron Man 3 are what I'm living for this Summer. Minorly bummed they're coming out so close to each other, leaving less excitement for the rest of the Summer, but that's ok. Cumbervillan!! Hooray!
