but....

i could bash the HELL out of twilight AND stay on topic... its THAT easy a movie to rip on!!! :muahaha:

ANYWAY.

im not going to be mislead by titles... HOWEVER...

i do believe ol Abrams will follow the usual trend... set up with the first.. make the last two a conjoined story.

I came, i saw, i added a Sig.
Later gents, i have Youtube to take over.

He can do whatever he wants as long as he keeps the crew where they need to be.

this is true, i dont think that will change.

but i still feel that this is only a prequel to the third in story. as in, its a two parter.

So lets see...(some random things that may or may not already be known to any of you)

Klingons are a big part of the story.
More screen time for the Enterprise.
More ships(not classes but in numbers) than the first movie so pretty much FC level. Klingon account of the Narada itself crushing the fleet to free Nero and crew?
More Bones being Bones.
The crew will be tested.
A darker toned movie than the first has been hinted at and we now have a title to back that up.
All hail the messiah!

Well, JJ was able to show a very, very, extremely brief clip on Conan.  And by brief, Paramount told JJ it couldn't be more than three frames.  He described it as Spock in a volcano for reasons we'll have to see the film to understand.



Seriously, that's the only real thing out of the "clip".  But I suppose it's better than nothing...no, you know what.  It's not.  This is getting ridiculous.  The first trailer for The Hobbit was out a year before the movie.  We should've had a teaser months ago.  I don't know if it's JJ being secretive or Paramount, but this is getting stupid.

Considering I read the Silmarillion, the Hobbit, and the Lord of the Rings, you're missing out on the best fantasy epic of the past one hundred years.  Harry Potter's got nothing on my homie John Ronald Reuel Tolkien. :P

The Hobbit is the easiest of Tolkien's books to get into.    The Silmarillion is a glorified history book and The Fellowship of the Ring takes forever to get any traction.

*pops in, and reads everybody dissing Tolkein*
now wait a second, guys...you can't stand Tolkein for just the sheer length?!  The man invented the multirace fantasy genre.  his work draws you in.  I've been lost for HOURS in LotR (and now for even More hours in WoW).  you want sheer length, read some trek novels from the non series group (try Diane Duane's "Spock's World" for example)

Baz: space is vast there[sic] legs will be tired by the time they get to the next planet

Whoa now KCS, did I at any point say I DISLIKED Tolkien's books?  No.  I love them.  I'm just saying that The Hobbit is the best of them for a good sit-and-read.  The Silmarillion and The Lord of the Rings are not.

It's not the length that got me.  Long books don't intimidate me tbh.
What stopped me reading it was the hard truth that I just wasn't interested or drawn in by the stories.  The only fantasy franchises that I ever got on with were the Elder scrolls and to some extent Warcraft.  Just don't ever ask me to play WoW.  W3 was my limit.

Never thought I'd be doing this in relation to this thread, but...


Starting next month, Paramount will be previewing 9 minutes of Star Trek Into Darkness in 500 IMAX 3D theaters.  Uh-wha?  You say you don't live near an IMAX 3D theater?  Or perhaps not in the US at all?  And you want to know WHY this is good news?  It means the promotional train is going to start moving out of Paramount station people.  All this time and all this secrecy, and we're finally getting somewhere!
