Kevin Smith Gives Thumbs Up to Star Trek

Kevin Smith Gives Thumbs Up to Star Trek

I’ve never been a believer in a studio keeping a film classified from the general public because “it’s just too good to spoil!”

Needless to say then, I was beyond annoyed when J.J. Abrams & Co. failed to show up and present any footage from next summer’s Star Trek reboot/prequel at the San Diego Comic Con last month.

Now comes word that Abrams has completed a rough cut of the film and been showing it off to a select few - which apparently includes Zack & Miri Make a Porno writer/director Kevin Smith, who apparently had nothing but praise for J.J.’s new take on Sci-fi’s most revered franchise.

Hi-Res Image Of Zachary Quinto As Spock

If nothing else works in J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek movie, at least one thing will: Zachary Quinto as Spock.

I’m by no means a Photoshop expert, but I took the half-face image of Zack Quinto from the recently seen Star Trek poster and tweaked it until I had a reasonable version of a full-front picture of him as Spock - and it came out pretty good if I do say so myself.

Behold...The New Star Trek Poster

From the sounds of it, don’t expect to see damn near anything regarding J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek reboot/prequel at this year’s San Diego Comic Con.

But this will certainly do…for now.

Entertainment Weekly has an exclusive first look at the posters that will handed out to attendees next week at the Con.

Will There Be A Star Trek Preview At Comic-Con?

There’s been a lot of buzz about the fact that supposedly Paramount will not have a major presence at Comic-Con this year - not even for their upcoming Star Trek movie. Although I received an email from them asking who from Screen Rant would be attending the Con in a couple of weeks, when I replied asking for clarification on this story I received no reply.

Grand movie site poobah Harry took Abrams’ up an an open offer to visit him whenever he was in L.A., and Abrams decided to take Harry to the editing bay for the movie.

Talks Already Begun For Star Trek 2.2?

I must say director J.J. Abrams & Co. have done a damn-solid job keeping the upcoming Star Trek reboot/prequel top secret.

Although I think we’ll see actual footage (*gasp!*) at the San Diego Comic Con late next month - if not that, then at least official photos of the cast in costume and whatnot.

Speaking exclusively to Trek Movie, co-writer and executive producer Roberto Orci confirms that magic word for any potential franchise has already been uttered: sequel.

The Transformers co-writer reveals:

Hungry For More Star Trek Details? Here You Go!

Intrepid and dedicated Screen Rant regular reader “790″ took it upon himself to visit Creation Entertainment’s 16th Annual GRAND SLAM: THE SCI-FI SUMMIT in Burbank, CA over the weekend and reported back with the latest from the Paramount panel on J.J. Abrams upcoming Star Trek reboot movie.

The host at the panel was my friend Anthony, from TrekMovie.com. While screenwriter Roberto Orci was in attendance, co-scripter Alex Kurtzman was not able to attend. I’ve distilled the report down to a few bullet points for you. Some of it is info that is already out there, but there are a few new details that were revealed.

Here are the highlights:

New Star Trek Trailer To Premiere With Indiana Jones - Updated

New Star Trek Trailer To Premiere With Indiana Jones - Updated

[UPDATE: While my friend Anthony over at the highly esteemed TrekMovie.com says that HIS sources say there will be no new teaser trailer attached to Indy 4, my source is sticking by his guns. I guess we'll find out on May 22nd.]

Screen Rant has received word from someone who has been a reliable source in the past stating that “it’s 100% that there will be a new Star Trek trailer with Indiana Jones.”

According to the source, the new trailer will be a continuation of what we saw in the teaser trailer - showing further progress on the construction of the USS Enterprise with technicians working on the ship. There will be new audio, but no word on whether we will see or hear any of the cast
members.

So, that means we’ll be seeing the new trailer in movie theaters on May 22nd, the release date for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

As mentioned previously, the release date for Star Trek 11 has been pushed back from December 2008 to May 2009.

Star Trek Release Date Pushed Back To May 2009!

Star Trek Release Date Pushed Back To May 2009!

Wow. This news certainly came out of nowhere… The release date for the new Star Trek movie (aka Star Trek 11) has been pushed back from December 25th, 2008 to May 8, 2009.

This is no doubt fallout from the just ended Hollywood writers’ strike, which lasted long enough to seriously impact the movie and TV industry. There has been no work done on screenplays for almost three months, and that will have a domino effect that will be felt not only this year but through 2009 as well.

New Star Trek Movie Plot Details

New Star Trek Movie Plot Details

Some significant plot information regarding the new Star Trek movie has come our way. If you read Screen Rant regularly, you’ll recall that back in October we stated that there would be Klingons in the new film. This was supposedly debunked by other sites, but lo and behold, a few days ago a slip of the lip by Anton Yelchin who plays Chekov in the Star Trek 11 apparently confirmed that Klingons will indeed appear in the film.

Well now we’ve come across some new information about the plot regarding the USS Enterprise, the timeline aspect of the film, and a whopper of a plot spoiler that’s so huge that I have decided not to reveal it.

Before I go on I want to say that I know we’re all hungry for information on Star Trek (as well as other sci-fi and fantasy movies), but I think that sometimes we can tend to get carried away and end up taking away some of the joy of seeing a movie for the first time by knowing too much about it when we finally sit down to watch it.
