Sexy Uhura? She is Uhura in name only. Nichelle Nichols' Uhura was a beautiful, competent and intelligent professional, as oppose to her Uhura, a shrew with a big chip on her shoulder.
The forced, awkward Spock/Uhura romance--big deal, "inspired" by Uhura's lust for the pointy-eared devil in the old series--seemed a contrivance to deflect away from gay Kirk/Spock speculations: characters and actors.
@OldskolFan since Star Trek 2009 is kind of like a re-imagining of TOS characters, Zoe Saldana doesn't need to gain weight or the curves to be Uhura. You might as well add that Karl Urban is going to have to lose some weight and height to be just like the real McCoy. She is fine the way she is -_-
You'll just have to suspend using logic; maybe it was because of lighting that his eyes appeared blue. Take off the Spock inspired glasses and go to fantasy world.
@OldskolFan - I'm just implying that there are double standards here. Additionally, DeForest Kelley was also a fairly scrawny man where as Karl Urban clearly hits the gym. Why pick on her for being skinny?
@legalglitz Right, I get your point! It would be humanly impossible to find exact doubles of the original ST cast. Unless they did a "Tron" digitial (Jeff Bridges) making Shatner et al. appear younger. That might be interesting though...
@OldskolFan - That WOULD certainly be interesting, but I'm glad you get my point. After all you were the one who made the original comment about Zoe needing curves. She would probably look even more beautiful if she could gain 10 pounds, but some women just cannot gain weight regardless of their diet due to metabolism. Her small frame and heigh suggests that she is one of those women.
this is one xenolinguist i would love to date,lol.and guess what,this movie is my first foray into the whole trekkie universe.i can get used to this.its one heck of a fun,funny movie with just the right amount of action.waiting for the sequel now,lol
90% of the African slave trade went to Latin America. 5% to the United States. There are really way more black Latinos than black US Americans. For example, there are more black people in Brazil than any other country other than Nigeria.
Captain Kirk: Uhura! Uhura!
Uhura: Yes Captain!
Captain Kirk: Nothing, I was just clearing my throat!
LOL!

God she is so bland compared to Nichelle Nichols. Not only her face but her voice and body too. The original Uhura was so hot.

She is very beautiful. She is going to have to gain some curves though in order to play an older Uhura because Uhura was pretty curvy.
