They do say you can't get too much of a good thing so, to go with our exclusive shoot of Zachary Quinto and Chris Pine, we now bring you three exclusive new stills straight from the USS Enterprise.
Lifted from the new issue of the magazine (on sale on Thursday, click here to subscribe!), the first image shows off the majesty of Spock standing in front of the iconic Enterprise viewscreen. The second image, featuring Kirk in an armoured EVA suit, makes the good captain look less like a Starfleet officer and more like an extra from Unreal Tournament but who are we to complain? The final image shows Zoe Saldana as Uhura, complete with retro sixties go-go dress. What's not to love?
For the fully skinny on Abrams' Star Trek, pick up the latest issue of Empire magazine when it hits shelves on Thursday.

| To boldly go... | in search of some charisma, hopefully. Chris Pine's presence in these images is schoolboyishly flaccid.
Quinto looks terrible on a cover, but actually quite something on the still, but that may be exacerbated by the composition of the shot. Ever since Usual Suspects though, Singer's gone downhill - his directorial attempt at House's pilot was abysmal, saved only by the writing and casting of the show. More

BOOM! | The Original Series has been something every single series that followed it has gone back and put a touchstone "homage" episode in line with whenever it needed a ratings boost. The Next Generation did it with "Relics" by having Scotty on the show and letting him wander a (partial) TOS Enterprise bridge. DS9 did it with "Trials & Tribble-ations (horrible title, great episode.) Voyager did it (sort of) with "Flashback", where we saw Captain Sulu circa TOS movie era. Enterprise did it (sort of) wi More

I personally preferred the uniforms from the 1st "Motion Picture" film. They should of done "Batman Begins" and "Casino Royale" i.e. re-boot from scratch. More

"Star Trek? Hey, what's that? I've never heard of that all my life! I have no opinion about it whatsoever! Oh? What's that? It's going for flash and bang over intellectualism now? You say it'll have a woman with gigantic breasts in a skintight catsuit, and lots of spaceships covered in neon frippery? Appeals to the lowest common denominator, you say? Well, why didn't you say so?! THAT'S worth seeing!" More

Other than pure jaded, cynical greed and cold indifference to anything other than t More

I am disappointed that J.J. Abrams have kept the 60's "cartoony" uniforms - it reminds me of Thunderbirds and Speed Racer films (both box-office flops). Hopefully, an awesome trailer will appeal to Non-Trekkers to turn up and watch the film. More

Posted by Timon at 14:16 on 28 October 2008 | Report This Post | | | | | Love the Spock images from the film... | BUT, I hate all the promo Spock images. They look like shots of make-up experiments with the ears, eyebrows and wig.
That said, can't wait for this... More
