Star Trek (2008)

Anyone else psyched about this movie? Not only have they cast semi-known to well-known celebrities for the prominent roles, but now Winona Ryder signed on to play Spock's mother, Amanda Grayson. Here is the cast so far:

Chris Pine as James T. Kirk
Zachary Quinto as Spock
Karl Urban as Leonard McCoy
Simon Pegg as Montgomery Scott
Anton Yelchin as Pavel Chekov
Zo� Salda�a as Uhura
John Cho as Hikaru Sulu
Eric Bana as Nero (the villain of the film)
Leonard Nimoy as the older ("current day") Spock
Bruce Greenwood as Christopher Pike
Winona Ryder as Amanda Grayson, Spock's human mother
Rachel Nichols in an unknown role

I'd say that's a pretty decent list of performers they've gotten. and with JJ Abrams at the helm, I'm very sure it won't disappoint.

The movie is set to take place a few years before the "Star Trek" 1960s TV series aired, possibly earlier on in Kirk's career, or his Academy days. Since Captain Pike (Kirk's immediate predecessor) is in this film, I can only imagine that the U.S.S. Enterprise will also be in the film, the original ship.

Thoughts? Comments? Trek-bashing?
