New Star Trek movie has $150M budget (http://www.slashfilm.com/2007/10/11/star-trek-casting-simon-pegg-as-scotty-john-cho-as-sulu-budget-150m/)

I've been a bit lukewarm on this project, but this one announcement will probably get my butt in the seat on opening night...

Are they trying to recreate the original Movie?

No, it's set before the events in the original TV show - when the characters were in Starfleet Academy.

There must be some kind of time travel because Leonard Nimoy is playing the older Spock.

Maybe it's an epilogue type thing?

*insert movie sequence here*

"Take Enterprise. Go to mum's. Kill Klingons. "Sorry Klingons." Grab Uhura, go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over. How's that for a slice of fried gold?"

"Yeah, boyeeeeeeee!"
