Who is this guy I never heard of this guy so I don't know if it is a wise decision to pick a scottish actor to play Scottie on the new Star Trek movie

woo and hoo..and I only say that bc I LOVE pegg...but I dunno about him being scotty. I see him as nothing more than comic relief and I dont remember scotty being all that slap stick-esque. Maybe hell surprise us all.

I think that's going to be extremely weird. My first thought was, 'yes! perfect choice!' but upon further consideration... I dunno, in some kind've crazy weird sort of way it may just work.
