Yeah, I saw that. I'm quite intrigued to say the least

Especially, the part where they say:

This could have many meanings:

A poster for Into Darkness http://www.startrekmovie.com/

Could that be London on the background? The 4th building on the right of the character (Cumberbatch?) looks a lot like the Gherkin skyscraper:

EDIT: Did you notice the (not-so-hidden) starfleet insignia???

My guess is that the bad guy is actually...

I don't know

Check the Japanese version of the trailer (it has an extra scene) at around 58 secs:

This extra scene clearly reminds me of

BTW, this is an alternate reality, so

Wow! That trailer really looks intense.

Just watched the Japanese Trailer


They've got to be trying to throw us off.

It just goes to show you really need to keep an eye on those English actors. They are a serious threat.

Hmm another thought

You had to see this coming:

Nah, I seriously doubt it's Gary Mitchell. He only got those superpowers in that episode, which is way into the future from where this movie is standing. It's merely fan speculation (you can read it in the video description )

I am surprised you even talk on that movie, I already hate it by now.
It's funny as we have a similar topic on afc but most only rant on it, I think the others went quiet.

I know what you mean, Vinculum. I mean, why would you destroy Vulcan? What's the idea behind that plot twist? The producers must really dislike Vulcans or something...

what they obviously hate is logic, so it's rather logic they hate vulcans too

I beg to differ. Surely, their planet has been destroyed but this makes for a very dramatic setting. Will they manage to survive as a species, given that they are just ~10000 people? What is the role of Spock in all this? As you can see this makes for an interesting story and if the producers really disliked Vulcans they would just ignore them and not put them on the spotlight

Of course, we all know Vulcans will survive as they have the assistance of the whole Federation but also they are the favorite species of the audience, so in a sense this is like an ancient Greek tragedy. The characters have to suffer greatly before they are "saved" in the end.

Well, Jean-Luc, I meant it rather as a joke. Had they really hated the Vulcans and wished to wipe them out, they would have come up with a biological weapon that would kill all Vulcans. It's just like you said: they are the audience's favourite aliens and they were struck hard to make everything more dramatic. I really liked the planet itself, so maybe that's why it's bugging me that much.

Vulcans: The species recovers slowly because they only breed every 7 years.

Well the 2009 movie and this movie are good movies IMO (better than most crap these days, like transformers, only explosions effects) but it's bad Trek. In my eyes it has lost that feeling that all trek shows and movies had...that special something...but as I said, these days, compared to Transformers, Battleship, Battle LA (or what was it's name) I'm sure it will be a good movie.

I have to agree, but as JJ had said at some point, they had to take a new direction in order to bring the people back to Trek. Also, Trek is always best during a tv series as the nature of the films are different, ie the film has to deal with something "BIG" but in the series they have more flexibility to deal with other issues.

OK Battleship was horrible, but Battle LA wasn't thaaaat bad!

It makes me wonder how they survived as a species in the first place!

I didn't understand at all they felt they had to go "a new direction" when the archer enterprise series didn't work so well as *lots* of people didn't find it fits well to all the shows they made before.
But ok, they thought they attract the younger people by more action and a younger crew as that's what other films are successful with in our time.
I find that tiresome and it's clear death to the trek feeling there once was.
I want old timeline back, Q shall pass by and revert all this mess with the star trek universe.

Imagine how the people who grew up with TOS felt when TNG came. BTW, the big lesson that I got from the TNG season 7 finale was that all good things must come to an end, even Trek. I don't know, we'll have to wait and see

Apparently next Monday a new, slightly longer, trailer will be available. See this for more details and some spoilers:
