Teaser Trailer for Star Trek Into Darkness!!!



     When you surround a film in mystery, especially one with massive followers, the buzz tends to take on a life of it's own.  Such is the case with the upcoming Star Trek Into Darkness.  Up until we've heard rumors, innuendo, and gossip about the film.  Audiences haven't even had a decent trailer! 
     Until now. 
     Columbia pictures just released a teaser for the upcoming fanboy film.  But before you check it out you might want to read the following synopsis of the film:

When the crew of the Enterprise is called back home, they find an unstoppable force of terror from within their own organization has detonated the fleet and everything it stands for, leaving our world in a state of crisis.

With a personal score to settle, Captain Kirk leads a manhunt to a war-zone world to capture a one man weapon of mass destruction. As our heroes are propelled into an epic chess game of life and death, love will be challenged, friendships will be torn apart, and sacrifices must be made for the only family Kirk has left: his crew.


Now as for the trailer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5KPnHh8z34.

Watched it?  Good.

     Now here are my thoughts.  I can't speak for the rest of you but this trailer gave me goosebumps.  I know it is only a minute long but damn.  A few things I noticed.  It looks like Kirk is going to have a love interest through Alice Eve and that he's going to get into another fight with Spock.       
     However, Benedict Cumberbatch's voice over dominates this trailer.  In case you didn't know Cumberbatch plays the film's villain.  Yet we are no closer to finding out who the mysterious baddie is.  I will say this I doubt it is Khan.  I say this only because at one point Kirk is having a conversation with Cumberbatch that could be a flashback.  I'm wondering if Cumberbatch's character went to Starfleet with Kirk?  Obviously, he's come to have his vengeance but what for?  I find it very hard to believe that it is simply for getting kicked out of Starfleet Academy.
     As awesome as this trailer is it still leaves much to the imagination.  For those of you expecting more don't fret.  There is going to be a full trailer released online on December 17th.  Or if you happen to be going to see The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey next Friday you can see it then.
     Star Trek Into Darkness opens May 17th.

                                This is Alice Eve.  You're welcome Universe.
