Attached to U.S. prints of QUANTUM OF SOLACE on Friday and likely to hit the web sometime late this week will be the trailer for Paramount’s big budget STAR TREK movie which will open May 8th 2009.

Spies for AICN have seen the footage and I’ve basically stolen the descriptions for you guys below…

We start out with a muscle car tearing ass down a dirt road. Eventually it careens off a cliff, but not before the driver jets himself out – he’s a young boy, couldn’t be older than 11. Suddenly what I can only describe as a space-cop asks him, “what is your name sir?” The young boy replies, “James Tiberius Kirk.”

Then Chris Pine takes over as we see him being angsty, driving down the road on a motorcycle. We hear some voice over from someone else that confirms his angst saying things like, “You’ve never really been happy have you?” and etc. Then we see him drive up what looks like a smelting factory – probably more of that ship construction we got in the earlier trailer.

Then we really kick into trailer mode as we get quick images of Spock as a kid. Spock all grown up. Leonard Nimoy. A vulcan council. Space cadets. And the crew alone with some quick, flashy space fighting.

The reader went on to call the movie “visually dynamic” with “great shots and cool camera movements” and even some hints at sex scenes, something we had to expect with a J.J. Abrams directed update of this franchise. His final sentence I enjoyed…

To finish, I’ll just say, it feels like what we WANTED when the new Star Wars movies were released – something old and nostalgic getting pushed to greater, more dynamic storytelling by improved technology.

Then another Paramount employee went into more depth, exactly where the previous one left off…

We then see a bunch a quick shots of the crew walking around the bridge of some starship and we see a 20-something Spock angrily pointing at a 20-something Kirk and saying, “I will not be lectured by you!” and an angry Kirk getting in Spocks face saying, “Why don’t you do something about it!?!” We then see an enraged Spock trying to stab Kirk with something pointed I couldn’t quite make out. It was a quick shot and Kirk is shown using both hands to fend off Spock and hold the object away from his face.

Several quick cuts are shown of space ships firing at one another and people being thrown about the bridge of whatever ship they’re suppose to be in. We see crew members running down bright white corridors as another voice over with a Scottish accent says, “I’m having fun!” We then see a close-up of what had to be a young(er) Dr. McCoy with about a weeks worth of black stubble on his face and his arms crossed in that oh so familiar Bones manner saying angrily, “Space isn’t suppose to be fun, it’s aliens and phasers and death!” We also see a woman in silhouette (Uhura?) pulling off her top and scenes of the crew running to man their battle stations on a bridge.

We then see a bunch of battle shots of space ships being hit by phaser fire and pieces being blown off of them while engine nacels explode before it all ends with the familar Star Fleet logo against a black background and we hear the familar Star Trek opening cords played over it and the release date appears underneath.

I can’t vouch for every line of dialog I quoted as being 100% accurate, the cuts were very quick and I only sat through the trailer once but that’s the basics. The colors of the corridors and the uniforms was very bright, everything had a “new” appearance. No doubt some of the shots were meant to represent Star Fleet academy training exercises and not real life combat scenes though again, it all went by pretty quick.
