But isn't it about time the Next Gen crew went off into quiet retirement and someone else got a shot at a Trek movie? At least this one looks darker and more interesting than some of the recent output...

It answers this in the header: "News for nerds." Last I heard, the jocks were still leaving most of the seats in any given theatre showing a Star Trek movie empty, thoughtfully leaving them for the nerds.

It's a Star Trek movie. Of course it's going to be mindless action and sci-fi. Duh. Doesn't mean it's not worth seeing (though it may well not be

Sure, ST will get its traditional crowd to the theaters, but to get the mainstream to watch, it needs to contend with the aforementioned which are well hyped up. If people decide to go to one movie this Christmas period, it would probably be a toss up between LotR (great movie last time round) and Harry Potter (for both kids and adults). It looks like ST will lose out big time...

Agreed. When I came back to the US, after living in South Korea with no American radio or television, I went with my friends to a movie they wanted to see. The only thing I knew was it was called "Ghost and the Darkness [imdb.com]". I bought my ticket and watched the flick with the rest of them. When the realization of what was happening and why was revealed, I was just engrossed. 'Wow!' 'How wild is that?' 'Imagine!'
My friends were very ho hum, and when we walked out at the end, said they didn't care for the movie, and that was it. To me, walking in totally blind to everything but the movie name, it was a great flick. They already knew what was going to happen because of the previews.
Even better was when I happened upon "Horror Planet [imdb.com]" one day while surfing the UHF. I watched it from beginning to end, and when it did end (no spoilers here) I just sat there in my chair totally dumbfounded. 'That's not how movies end' 'WTF?' Then about an hour later, it hit me. How incredibly cool was that? Not only was it not predictable, but it completely threw cinematic convention out the window. Terrible movie, but hey, you should watch it just to see it all the way through. Don't read any spoilers though, it'll take away from the experience.
