Star Trek just opens December 25. In the meantime, however, fans now have a new place where they can talk about the upcoming film by J.J. Abrams on the newly launched forums on the official site. Check out the forums by clicking here.

The new message boards are pretty straightforward with boards specifically for the movie, general Star Trek discussions, off-topic discussions, and comments and suggestions. At the same time, the official Star Trek site is keeping its forums open despite the fact that there is no clear sign that anyone is taking over the news operation there
