It's probably Spock and Khan.
Five bucks says its not Kirk.
Well according to apple trailers, this is the teaser. The last was announcement, so going by that we have not gotten a full trailer yet.

It's an image taken out context. Nobody knows where it falls in the movie, who's involved, or what it actually means.
Well do see Cumberbatch in a glass cell wearing what looks to be the same shirt as the the one in the hand scene.
Are you suggesting that Abrams is just trolling people?

This. It's totally Spock and Khan.

Yeah except Starfleet, the Enterprise, Spock, Kirk, space battles, etc. Better to leave the franchise dead on TV than take it in a slightly new direction on film.
He suggests it, and I definitely say he is
Well then that's pretty terrible

Haven't liked the teaser or this trailer as much as the "FIRE EVERYTHING" trailer, but then again, that's like my all time favorite movie trailer ever (Never into ST, never cared about it at all, but that trailer pretty much instantly made me want to see ST2009).
Still, assuming they get rid of the nagging plot holes, I expect this one to be better than the first.
What are the overall plans for this franchise? Would Paramount kill off a major character in this? Is this supposed to be the typical trilogy and finished, or, can we expect 4,5, etc Abrams films?

I see this as a continuing series, not really a trilogy... maybe Abrams might do three, his own trilogy, but I can see the universe continuing.
Yeah everyone wants to be Nolan, so it will probably be a "three act structure".

I love Star Trek, and I'm really excited for this film. There has been great Trek, and there has been horrible Trek, and while 2009 was a departure from what fans consider to be Trek, it was definitely more great than it was horrible.
I'm open to thematic changes to the series. I just hope we get a TV show at some point, so we can get more Trek pacing while fans of the reboot get action-heavy Trek.
I'm also a total slave to kickass sci fi trailers, so I can't help but be totally pumped for this.

I can see Abrams going for that... the man can't make Star Trek movies his whole life, I suppose.
But this a universe that can definitely continue after the initial trilogy. Perhaps a second trilogy, I dunno. Maybe Kahn will show up in Star Trek Reboot IV when they want to get people to come in.
I wanna see this universe continue. And I hope the next one isn't another four years off.

That Nolan just won't stop reinventing cinema. I'd certainly never heard of three act structures before Nolan came along. Guy is a pioneer of storytelling.

Four act stories are the future, Sculli.

I feel that Trek on TV is best suited for the exploration/moral dilemma content, while Trek on film is at its best when it's the bigger action content (09, Wrath).
Otherwise you end up with a movie like star trek insurrection. It would have been a good TNG episode but as a film, not so much.
I'm not crediting Nolan with inventing "trilogy".
He also didn't invent the chaotic plotting manipulating bad guy who gets himself captured as "all part of the plan", but that doesn't mean that Skyfall and Into Darkness didn't ape it and it's overall tone from TDK specifically.
I am saying that the mere fact that Nolan stopped at three makes it more likely that Abrams will make it to three/stop at three.
Completely agree.

Benny Batch being named that would be fine by me. Straight male here, and I think I have a bigger crush on him than my wife does. It is probably the voice and the attitude on Sherlock.

Fixed the link in the OP. Thx.

Treks 4 and 6 were really good and show how flexible the formula of the series is. Hopefully a future movie will go back to some of the more drama/adventure aspects of the series rather than just "kill the bad guy" schlock that was the '09 movie. Not that it was bad, it was the best Trek since First Contact but the franchise has so much more potential than that.

Alright guys, alright, million dollar idea:
Star Trek television show. On HBO. Starring the cast of the Trek films (Chris Pine, et al). On HBO. Full special effects. Multi-episode arcs.

Holy shit how expensive would that be? I know HBO, but still...

Millions upon millions upon millions of dollars and not a few souls, but holy crap... it might be worth it.

Or maybe they are frozen/stored on Earth and revived there instead of on the Botany Bay? While this may not be a Khan reboot, it is really really looking like one - which is unfortunate.
Ah, yes, one of those old fashioned money losing ideas.

Well, would you have thought that Game of Thrones would be the success it was?

Space Is Coming.
Game of Thrones features a cast of young film stars and not a range of character actors?
Although I guess Quinto's career hasn't taken off and Pine needs to prove he can do Jack Ryan.

Right, these are not exactly top shelf actors.
Game of Thrones had Sean Bean for crying out loud.
I don't understand why people don't want a Khan reboot. Khan would have completely different motivations and we don't know what he'd do if he didn't take a wife on the Enterprise then get exiled to a shitty planet.

Some of us dont want a Khan reboot because we already had one awesome Khan movie. Just give us another awesome movie with a different villain that hasn't had a chance to shine.

No, if you're going to do an established franchise on HBO then do a big budget remake of Babylon 5, since that was a show that:
1. Was fucking amazing
2. Was built with arcs in mind
3. Has a more interesting and well constructed universe
But I'd rather just see a new HBO SF from no established franchise so that the creators had room to breathe and include as many sex scenes as they wanted without feeling like a betrayal of a beloved series.
