Just to be pedantic he's not a young Captain Kirk, seeing as he's 11 it's very unlikely he's reached the rank of Captain - whoever wrote the headline should be shot with a phaser set on heavy stun :P

I'm looking forward to this film and all, and I liked the trailer, but kids in Star Trek, even in minor roles are seldom a Good Thing. Hopefully it'll only be a minor flashback or something.

I hope this isn't going to be like an episode of Lost where the flachbacks show that by an amazing coincidence the crew's lives all kept intersecting before they met at Starfleet Acadamy - like they used to play with spaceships in the sandpit at nursery or something. Maybe we'll find out in flashback why James T Kirk's parents saddled him with the name Tiberius! Perhaps like the Beckhams they were on Holiday In Rome at the time of conception.

They'll probably film a scene where Kirk and Spock are playing together as children not knowing there destiny! Dun dun duuuuun!!!

Well according to the intro of the novel for Star Trek: The Motion Picture, the name Tiberius came from our good ol' captain Kirks, mums love instructor. There you go....
