Eric Bana's Romulan villain, Nero, looks pretty cool. And the bridge of the Enterprise looks like the inside of an Apple store! We always knew the future would run on Mac. :)

Edit: In case you're wondering if this has anything to do with philosophy/culture/apologetics, it does. Here are a few quotes from this week's Entertainment Weekly:
"[The Star Trek] ethos may seem cornball to an America darkened by a decade's worth
of catastrophe, but after an election season that has seen both
presidential nominees run on ''hope'' and ''change,'' Star Trek just may find itself on the leading wave of a zeitgeist shift — away from bleak, brooding blockbusters and toward the light."
Director Abrams adds, ''It was important to me that optimism be cool again.'' And Zachary Quinto (who plays Spock) says, ''This is a franchise that offers hope for unity — and so does Barak Obama.''Star Trek has always been on the optimistic/humanistic side of things, and people have typically associated its ideology with liberal politics. At the same time, however, Abrams needs this movie to appeal to the widest audience possible. So will Star Trek push the PC envelope, or will it find a way to walk the cultural tightrope and become next summer's optimistic version of The Dark Knight?
