Which one? I'd like to see more of the 2nd one. I'm pretty sure she was on the Enterprise still at the end of the last film.

I'm pretty sure Navigator was referring to the Orion girl who was Uhura's roommate at SF Academy.

Abram's ST was a good action flick, I just don't think ST is an action franchise. Abrams (or one of the head honchos) mentioned it himself in the extras, saying that ST had always been more like submarine warfare - slow and deliberate - while Star Wars was the action flick. If I'd wanted to see an action flick I'd have been very happy with ST.
As far as casting, I was probably trying to judge by the TOS cast so I wasn't too excited by them. Maybe with a completely open mind I would have been more impressed. Scotty was too silly, IMO, but I guess it fit well with the Dr. Seuss/Willy Wonka/Super Mario Bros engine room.

And Diora Baird played the OTHER hot Orion girl. http://www.imdb.com/media/rm4277765376/nm1401531http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1401531/See, the problem is audiences aren't going for "submarine warfare" SF films. Those that get made are indie films with small budgets and small grosses. So, the choice is "action-oriented ST", which they've always had but has been in small doses, or NO ST. I prefer ST with action to none at all, YMMV. The Jedi Master
