Looks like the same VFX crew that worked on the movies.

Actually just watched the trailer, I'm not gonna piss my pants with excitment but it looks like they're trying to make a new story now, rather than rehash. Promising.

I thought it had a bit of a TNG feel with it floating through the solar system :)

Yeah, this trailer is much better than the Beastie Boys trailer.

But it still looks like a major action flick. I just wish they'd move away from that and take Star Trek back to its roots, more science and story, less action...

From what I have seen of the series so far (nothing is concrete) it's set pre-TNG. Havn't seen anything to suggest that it will be in the movie universe. CBS confirmed it won't be a spin off either.

So long as I get my series then the movies can do whatever the fuck they want :up:

I also think the movie rights and TV rights are owned by seperate companies ?, Viacom and CBS ?. That's fantastic news if true :D

I got that vibe with the camera sliding past stars and dead planets, looked very similar to the end titles of the last two movies. I've never been a Trekkie but I might check out the show if the acting will be good. It's definitely the best part of the new movies.

I hope it succeeds, if only because if it doesn't then it will be blamed on a lack of demand and get moth balled again.

I know it's up against it. Just maybe it'll come together though.

Won't it only be available on CBS's streaming service? Not sure if that's good or bad...

CBS online and the television are apparently seperated within the company so it is their project and for their service, that's the story anyway.

I don't think it can be seen as good though, even if they throw money at it then it's gonna be aired to a limited audience.

Can't get too excited about it all BTW. Since JJ Abrams everyone seems to have forgotten what Star Trek was all about, except for the people that are working on Axanar but that's on the verge of being foxed.

Director of that film is a producer on the new show :D

Guy is almost as important as Roddenberry, if that film was never released then Star Trek would've been lost forever. They have Fuller too, who wrote a lot of ds9 and Voyager. It's those 2 that are keeping my hopes up for this show, they have Kurtzman n all who was co-writer ? for the 2 more recent Star Trek movies, not great but atleast it isn't some newbie. I think they're using his production company too.
