New actors chosen for Bones and Kirk in new Star Trek movie.

I... don't know what to make of this. It's not going to be the same.

Hey, you kids! Get off my lawn!

Oh god.

The only way this was going to work was if they went entirely with unknown or relatively unknown actors.

This is going to be so horrendously bad.

I think I am the only person who is seriously psyched about this cast list. I. Cannot. Wait.

KARL URBAN.

I just...I...really? KARL URBAN? As BONES?

Now don't get me wrong, it's not that I quite MIND a more...conventionally attractive Dr. McCoy, but I just can't get my head around it. At all.

I don't totally mind the new Kirk, but. KARL URBAN?!

Karl Urban? As Bones? If he pulls this off, he gets my vote for the most versatile actor of the decade.

Chris Pine/Zachary Quinto will be hot, that's all I care about.

But, yes, Eomer doesn't look a bloody thing like Bones. I don't think they even tried. >:(

Lol, I was googling some of the actors to see who they were and came across this.

:DD

IMDB is fun, as always...

Do you know who McCoy is in Star Trek? He's not a big man. As a matter of fact, he's the smallest guy on the show. THIS CASTING IS WEIRD BECAUSE IT'S LIKE CASTING ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER AS MR. FREEZE. God I still can't believe that happened. They should at least try to remain somewhat true to the character. McCoy is INGRAINED in the minds of Trek fans as a skinny country doctor. What, if anything, about Karl Urban makes you think of him at all as a skinny country doctor? I don't think acting ability is going to fix this.

As a Spock/McCoy shipper, I'm just picturing Urban and Quinto and trying not to drool too much.

I've been very mixed about this. On the one hand, I don't WANNA see TOS murdered! On the other hand, it's new Trek. On the other other hand, Enterprise was new Trek. In conclusion: unless their team is Of The Body somehow this time, this is probably going to suck like a Republican politician in a public bathroom.

I'll still go see it though. Spock's in it!

And there I was, thinking nothing could be stranger than Simon Pegg as Scotty...

Why must you disillusion me so, new Star Trek movie?

Dude, I'll see this just for Simon Pegg as Scotty. 'Cause, um, WIN.

And I say they just have Nichelle Nichols play Uhura. You know she still could.

Well, I'm thrilled about Simon Pegg. I think Zachary Quinto would do an excellent job as Spock. I agree with [info]melandry: the actor playing Kirk has an excellent smirk, which, really... yeah, I can see it.

I don't know about Eomer as McCoy, but, hey, he's not driving me screaming away from the theater.

Now, for the major concern when it comes to Star Trek movies: will there be an even moderately decent script?

I liked this project a lot better when Matt Damon was being considered for Kirk, and Adrian Brody was being considered for Spock.

Now I'm just meh. (Also, as a Xenaverse/Ren Pic fan, it never ceases to amaze me how Karl Urban got all big playing Eomer in LotR. Every time I see him I'm like, "dude, that's Cupid!")

In light of "Enterprise" and the last few Star Trek films (I watched the "Rifftrax" of Generations and I think that movie might even be worse than Star Trek V), I don't think they can really ruin the franchise. That starship sailed a looooooooong time ago.

Yep, gonna have to see it at midnight, possibly dragging along a husband who'll hate me for it.
