Your comment lays out almost exactly my concerns about what this movie would be - that it may be a good movie, but not really Trek.
Retconning the entire purpose of the Federation/Starfleet? That pisses me off. (And making superfluous changes to things like Vulcan - what's the point?)
More and more it does indeed seem like this is JJA trying to live out his wanna-make-a-SW-movie fantasy, but I'll still see it at least once, to give it as fair a shake as I can.
