If you are able to do the Vulcan salute, you are a Star Trek geek!
I'm able to do it...

Have to admit I'm quite intrigued by the direction their taking it in.
I was highly skeptical when I heard they were going to ditch the traditional "reverse spin-off" model and carve out a brand new saga without the backing of a TV series. But I gotta say, the cast is amazing...
Zachary Quinto (Sylar from Heroes) as Spock
John Cho (Harold from Harold & Kumar) as Sulu
Simon Pegg (Shaun from Shaun of the Dead) as Scotty
Karl Urban (LOTR/Bourne Supremacy/many others) as McCoy
Eric Bana (Black Hawk Down/Hulk/Troy) as the villain
Winona Ryder as the love interest for Kirk (at least, that's what I'm assuming)
The huge question mark will be casting a virtual unknown like Chris Pine as Kirk. The movie will succeed or fail on his performance. Its a very similar move to casting Brandon Routh for Superman Returns... he'll either be the young rising star of the franchise's rebirth, or the main reason it crashed and burned.
I think Ryder plays Spock's mom. Why have Chekov in this? He joined the Enterprise crew later. Anyway, it'll be interesting to see how they do this. I already read a bunch of spoilers but I won't list them here.![]()
