  • Title: Star Trek
  • IMDB: link

I have to admit I’m a little less enthused after viewing this latest trailer for the new Star Trek film which will hit theaters next summer.  Do we really need to see Kirk (Chris Pine) as dumb pre-pubescent kid?  And did he just tell Spock (Zachary Quinto) to “buckle up”?  Eric Bana, Simon Pegg, Winona Ryder, Karl Urban, John Cho, Zoe Saldana, Bruce Greenwood, Anton Yelchin, and Ben Cross also star.  Check out the official site.  The film beams into theaters on May 8, 2009.  Larger trailer available in the Full Diagnosis.

This Week in Comic Book Film

  • Title: Punisher: War Zone
  • IMDB: link

Because the previous attempts to bring the character to the big screen have been so successful (note the sarcasm) the character gets yet another reboot with Ray Stevenson in the title role taking on New York’s underworld.  Dominic West, Larry Day, Doug Hutchison, Wayne Knight, Dash Mihok, and Angel alum Julie Benz also star.  Check out the official site.  The Punisher returns to theaters on Friday.
