Traditionalists, of course, will only like what they know and condemn anything that challenges it.
Challenges it? HA!!!
Traditionalists can't wait to hear how much you LOVE what J.J. did to your favorite sci-fi-movie franchise . . .

Guardians of the Galaxy marketing strategy at work here. Simple as that.
That's it in a nutshell.
Yep. A while back Pegg said in an interview that the studio bosses want Star Trek to make the kind of money the Marvel movies make. I guess the answer is to turn Kirk into Star-Lord.

It was very action packed. I was…it was surprising. I found it to be kind of…the marketing people sort of saying ‘everybody come and see this film, it’s full of action and fun’, when there’s a lot more to it than that. I didn’t love it, because I know there’s a lot more to the film. There’s a lot more story, and a lot more character stuff, and a lot more of what I would call ‘Star Trek stuff.’ But, you know, they’ve got to bring a big audience in, they’ve got to bang the drum. So to Star Trek fans, I’d say hang in there, be patient.
I believe him!

Yeah, as hard as it is to do so, I would say to not give up on this. Trailers are often handled outside the studio, or at best by marketing guys in the studio that do not have any particular taste about any movie they are splicing off. I think the only sure thing is that it does look different, and I think the look of the bridge and uniforms are fine, I was tired of that bright and white bridge.
There is something always off with the look of Chris Pine, I am not sure if it the hair color of the make up. I think I noticed his hair change colors a few times within the previous Trek movies, from blonde to brown and back. And they want him to be this smooth faced matinee hunk, but he is a fairly ruddy complexion, non-smooth face guy. It seems like they have some issues trying to make him look like DiCaprio when he is clearly not that. He is a good enough actor, and he looks a lot like his dad, they should just let him be I think.
I read the interview with Justin Lin, and while I was at first quite skeptical of this guy he sounds very well thought out, and a true fan from his youth watching the show with his dad at night. So I think that there is some hope here. Now will this be classic Trek? Nah, maybe not, but it can be a good movie that is still Star Trek, and I think that there is a pretty good chance it is better than Into Darkness.
I know it is just "wrong" to say, but I am more excited for Beyond than Force Awakens.

As Spock would say, "fascinating". Really walking on eggshells there, but love the candor.
@ Ado- Agreed, Pine just has this uneasy aura about him. He be better off playing bad guys.
