Welcome to the Shrine to Actors

As promised, tonight we have more screencaps from the new Star Trek movie trailer. More of the crew, the ships, Nero, Kirk and Spock for your viewing pleasure. We start off with another shot of Kirk (Chris Pine) in the Captain’s chair, sitting like a guy of course.

An awesome shot of the two ships…

Through the glass at McCoy (Karl Urban) and Kirk.

And now there’s Spock (Zachary Quinto), perhaps showing emotion?

An exchange of glances between Kirk and Spock. So much of this is reverential to the original series, down to the angle of the shots. Just fantastic.

Check out this incredible image of the Enterprise…

Introducing Sulu (John Cho), ready for action.

And Uhura (Zoe Saldana), always ready with a gorgeous smile.

And the impish Scotty (Simon Pegg), ready to dive into mayhem.

Tell me Quinto doesn’t look just like a young Nimoy here…

Another awesome and chilling action scene from Star Trek…

With a chilling battle cry from Nero (Eric Bana)…

And another of those great, Shatner-esque intense glances from Kirk.

Star Trek hits theaters on May 8, 2009.

I got so excited over the new Star Trek movie trailer that I had to do some screencaps of it. In fact, I ended up doing quite a few of them, as usual. There are so many beautiful shots in this, of the cast and of the action sequences. Some of the action moved too fast to capture, unfortunately, but I think you’ll see a good sampling here in this and the follow-up post.

We’ll begin with James T. Kirk (Chris Pine)–a close-up view followed by the spectacular view he’s seeing.

Kirk at Starfleet…

…with Spock (Zachary Quinto).

A great visual effect of Nero’s ship.

And Nero himself, played by the uber talented Eric Bana–a man who can get those dark eyes of his to be incredibly, intensely scary…

A terrifying image of a planet imploding…

Dr. Leonard “Bones” McCoy, played by Karl Urban–who looks vastly different in each of his movie roles (see Bourne Supremacy, Chronicles of Riddick, Lord of the Rings).

One of the great shots of Chris Pine as a roughed-up Kirk…capturing the essence of William Shatner’s incarnation, particularly with his eyes.

Sliding into the Captain’s chair as a stunned crew looks on.

More of the new Star Trek cast and fabulous effects in the next post. The more I see of this film, the more excited about it I get!
