No, that's just injuries from having been in a fight earlier.
I saw the movie last night. I'm a pretty big fan of ST, but only the original series. I thought the movie was pretty good, though I couldn't follow parts of the plot, and there was at least one too many scenes of James T. Kirk hanging over a precipice. But they did a good job of casting plausible younger versions, of matching the backstory up with the regular story, and of faintly echoing the series here and there without belaboring it. And I loved seeing Leonard Nimoy. Next installment, I want William Shatner!

Whew! That's a relief to know!
Chris Pine comes from good acting stock, but based on the photo of him in this morning's paper, I'm afraid he's one of those actors I'll never be able to take too seriously because he's just so improbably handsome. :-\

Jeff Wrangler:
Sorry, John, but I don't get it. Are you suggesting that Chris Pine resembles the Arrow Shirt Man? Or that he appeals to comfort-loving manly men? ??? ;D

I liked the new Star Trek movie, but I think they should have got Betty White to play Spock's mother. ;)
