Star Trek Ready To Roll
It's finished... but you can't see it

Star Trek Ready To Roll

JJ Abrams has bestowed his very own Christmas gift upon the hordes of Trekkies worldwide by letting us all know that the final changes to Star Trek will be made over Christmas. Posting on Facebook, Abrams had the following to say:

We're just making final tweaks to the movie -- we should be totally locked next week. Then we're going to flash-freeze it so it's totally fresh for you in May. I can't wait for you to see the movie. The cast is awesome. The action and effects pushed the stunt team and ILM beyond their limits. I'm so grateful to this cast and crew -- and to all of you for your interest and patience. We'll continue to update this page with new info and exclusives, so check back when you think of it. In the meantime, have a happy, healthy, fun holiday!

From the last days of the sound mix,

JJ

So, by the time you've shaken off that eggnog hangover the eleventh Star Trek film will be 100% complete and ready to go. Now all we have to do is wait another six months before we can actually see it. Why is that again?

L: Alphadean The Fact that this movie was already pushed back and that its another Star Trek film all bode bad for it. I'll be there to see it but it gonna have to be pretty damned special to impress me. I'm not happy with the casting over all, from the trailer spock is showing way to much emotion. I also thought this was a re-imagining of the trek series. Well all the ships and the tech look pretty much the same to me. Maybe I'm just jaded becasue of all the crap released called Star... Read More
