Star Trek: Comparing the New Crew to the Originals

How does the cast of J.J. Abrams' in-the-works Star Trek feature-film "prequel" compare to its predecessor? Upon the announcement that the final two vacancies had been filled — Chris Pine will have "the com" as Kirk, while Karl Urban is scrubbing in as Bones — TVGuide.com set up this nifty side-by-side comparison Star Trek photo gallery for your amusement and, yes, fanboy-tastic scrutiny. I'm the first to admit, I scoffed at Pine's casting, but damn if he doesn't measure up nicely versus the young Shat. Speaking purely superficially, I think John Cho is the most off-the-mark as Sulu — boy's going to have to meet the barber.POLL: Vote for your favorite and least favorite Star Trek film casting choices.More galleries: Exclusive Lost Season 4 photos, exclusive Jericho Season 2 photos
