Two things which strike me as objectionable in the trailer we've seen: a young Kirk that thinks his middle name is "Siberius" instead of "Tiberius", a young Kirk that can jump from a speeding car and not suffer a scratch, and the cops.. what's with the cop?
Hey.. as long as it doesn't consider itself canon. It should be a lot of fun.

To those who think if this movie will be cannon or not.
Is this a reboot?
Yes and no. Abrams and the rest of the staff have been playing it close to the vest, but it seems that Nero's time travel in the movie may have affected the timeline, introducing the canon discrepancies that some purists have noticed. Abrams does, however, state that the movie will tie up all canon questions and explain how they are brought in with the Trek lore we do know already.
Kirk's Middle name
Cop: What is your name?
Young Kirk: My name is James Tiberius Kirk!
I think you heard his middle name wrong
