Chris Pine Says Star Trek is Going to be Sexed Up for a New Generation of Fans

[Madwelshboy]

E! Online posted a brief interview with Star Trek star Chris Pine, the new Kirk, in which he talks about some of the scenes from the movie's new trailer. Here are few excerpts of the article. (beware of minor spoilers)

Pine revealed he has a love scene with actress Rachel Nichols, who plays an Orion, in one of the movie's two love scenes.

Pine also said that the much buzzed about scene in which Zoe Saldana takes her top off will get a lot of attention. "It'll become famous," Pine said of the striptease.

"It's trying to be sexed up for a new generation that really isn't used to seeing Star Trek," he added. "It's a whole new beast."

Sounds very much like the intention for SG-U

If we wanted to watched sexed up pilge we would watch hollyoaks and the like...

it shouldn't be too bad as long as it has at least something to do with the plot......which it probably won't but one can still help.

What?
Where have you heard this information from?

Exactly! How about not taking a shot at Universe in a Star Trek thread.

[Giantevilhead]

I guess Kirk is going to go places where a lot of other dudes have gone before. Giggity giggity.

Whoa there. It certainly is a valid fear.

But you do have a point all the same. Sort of like an indirect way of attacking someone. Oh well.

On this whole thing though. I don't know, I guess it sells, as long as they do not go overboard.

The moral of the story is: I am being rather neutral about the movie until I see it.

I think I'm one of the few people looking forward to the movie.

I am. And I am not.

So it'll be sexed-up... so what? That's more realistic anyway; these people are in the middle of nowhere, always facing death. Sexual release is a natural escape from that sort of thing, and affairs are extremely common in soldiers stationed overseas for long periods of time.

Plus, it'll bring in more fans to the series. And that's good, not bad. This is the 21st century guys, promiscuity isn't going anywhere.

but it depends where the focus is.... if its just a soap on a spaceship... it may as well be hollyoaks for all I care.... if its an minor aside point in an episode then fine (as long as its written to be non cringe inducing)
