Eight days ago, a user on Reddit (via Yahoo!) posted a story about his dear friend, a lifelong Trekkie named Dan, who has been diagnosed with two forms of cancer.]

It didn't take long for this online post to catch fire and it eventually got the attention of Star Trek director J.J. Abrams. As a result, Abrams set up a screening for Dan and his wife. The couple were hoping to see the prologue but were delighted to find out they were getting to see the entire film.

Fwiw, there is a special advance IMAX screening on the 17th for a "fan sneak peak". Probably just a bunch of usual trekkie fanfare, but I didn't mind spending 1000 Scene points on it.
Alice Eve from "She's Out of My League" is in the movie. That alone makes me want to see the movie.
Star Trek means I will go see the movie.
The fact that the first one was so good means this might be one of the few movies I go to the theatre to see twice.

Good for her for all of those hours of dedication and eating right. Takes a lot of work to look that good.

There is a site with a complete plot synopsis. Having been unable to wait I read it. Not sure what to think, pretty shocking in some respects. Kind of a re-tread in others. I'll be going to see it anyway. Overall seems most think the previous movie was better. Time will tell.

NSFW!
Now don't get me wrong, I'd still munch on her ####### until she came but she is far too skinny. I needs a little more cushin' for my pushin'. Cap' knows what I'm talking about!
I had the opportunity to see it today. There's definitely some surprises in it that have been well kept.
Some great action scenes and once again they do a great job keeping enough tributes to the original characters and making it exciting enough for new audiences.
Cumberbatch is great and of the regular cast I thought Quinto's performance stood out as there was some great development of Spock's character. Pine was good also but I still maintain that's a very tough role to reprise.
Just got back from the IMAX fan sneak show. I loved it!
Some very well kept secrets. The trailers are sneakily edited. Lots of great callbacks.
The action is enormous and exciting and it doesn't take it's foot off the gas for two hours. The 3D looked stupendous on the IMAX screen! Love the dialogue and play between characters. Just a great movie! A worthy follow up that I feel surpasses the reboot.
