Star Trek (2008 movie)

Illinoisguy1 · 17 Jan 08 :: 22:39

CHICAGO – HollywoodChicago.com on Tuesday had a trusted source post on our message boards a description of the upcoming teaser trailer for J.J. Abrams' "Star Trek".
Following this post, various other movie sites (see a list of independent validations here) have confirmed the accuracy of this information with multiple sources along with a source at Paramount Pictures. Here's our exclusive teaser trailer description. Warning: This is full spoiler information about the teaser trailer.
Here's the "Star Trek" trailer description. Hope you can use it.
Slow Paramount logo.
Bad Robot logo.
Black, suddenly some sparks (very saturated [with] Michael Bay-looking cinematography).
We hear an old NASA radio countdown: "30 seconds and counting."
Close up of a timeless guy with goggles leaning down doing some wielding and sparks flying around.
He lifts his googles. Slightly futuristic head covering. It's not a space suit, by the way.
The dude leans down and wields some more. He's standing on big metal.
"From director J.J. Abrams" (blue font with a nice lens flare).
Some Kennedy speech about space flight: "The eyes of the world now look to space."
People walking around the saucer section. The wielders are everywhere – showing size.
We hear: "The eagle has landed."
Huge overhead shot pans across [and] suddenly [shows] what looks like miles of scaffolding underneath.
Title: "The future begins".
Really impressive shot from … people all over the ship and you can see a huge industrialized city or shipyard in the background. It's being built on Earth [rather than] in space.
Neil Armstrong: "One small step for man…"
Camera slowly cranes up over the whole saucer section.
Then we hear Leonard Nimoy's line: "Space. The final frontier…" and the familiar "Star Trek" theme horns.
The shot continues [and reveals] the writing on the top of the saucer – "U.S.S. Enterprise" – and these huge aircraft-like warp engines in the background. Technically, the first reveal of what we're seeing.
Just the Starfleet log (no title).
Title card: "Under construction".
"Christmas 2008"
Overall, really great teaser (by the definition of the term). Very industrial. I'm most intrigued by the background Earth stuff.
The teaser should be attached to the Abrams-produced "Cloverfield," which opens this Friday.
1:20 p.m. update on Jan. 17, 2008: The first photo of the U.S.S Enterprise from the new "Star Trek" turned up at Moviefone on Thursday. The photo can be seen below and a larger version can be found here. It appears to be taken from the teaser and be the reveal shot we first mentioned above. Here's a link to Paramount's official "Star Trek" Web site.

Cooooooool.

Can't wait!! Let's see how J.J. did with Cloverfield.

JJ only produced Cloverfield. I'm going to see it tomorrow. Alone. Dave wimped out on me because of the hand-held camerawork. He threw up in the middle of The Blair Witch Project from motion sickness and since this movie is like that one on steroids, he doesn't think he can handle it.

Just saw the ST trailer and it was pretty cool. It's only a teaser, but I can see how it would definitely generate some excitement amongst the ST fans.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 19 Jan 08 :: 02:42

Gave me chills.

The best advice I've heard about Cloverfield and the way it was filmed was to sit as far back in the theater as you can when you watch it. Some people have had some bad experiences after being stuck in the front row, lol.

TeeJay · 22 Jan 08 :: 22:29

The first teaser trailer is here. This site has it in a multitude of formats and sizes. The site is German, but I think even without knowing German, you should be able to get to the trailer. Or maybe there's other English sites that have it too.

Can't say the trailer really says much. In fact, it says just as much as the first teaser for Cloverfield did.

Anyone have a Facebook account?

Someone posted this link on IMDB and it's supposed to be cast pics.

TeeJay · 28 Jan 08 :: 15:32

It's very blurry photos of Zach Quinto as Spock (in make-up, shot from far away), some photos of the cast members for the new movie (not in make-up) at some event, some pics of the old Enterprise crew (Shatner as Kirk, Nimoy as Spock) and pictures of the "new" old Enterprise as seen in the first teaser trailer that was already posted here (see further up). Do you want me to download them and post them for you? I can do that when I get home later tonight.

I was hoping that these were cast photos of the actors in costume/character. If they aren't then no you don't have to, I already know what the actors look like.

TeeJay · 28 Jan 08 :: 17:07

The only photo of actor in costume is two very blurry ones of Quinto as Spock, but they look like they were taken by a paparazzi. And I think I've seen them posted before somewhere else.

Illinoisguy1 · 28 Jan 08 :: 17:09

Yeah, I've seen it already too.

TeeJay · 28 Jan 08 :: 18:37

Then I don't think there is anything new for you among those pictures on Facebook.

Looks like the release got pushed back to 2009.

From comingsoon.net:

Paramount is pushing back the release of J.J. Abrams' Star Trek from December 25 to May 8, 2009.

Which means that Paramount must see a lot of potential to release this in the Summer. It's been a very long time since a Star Trek film has opened in the Summer, the last one was Star Trek V back in 1989.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 14 Feb 08 :: 17:41

Wonder if it's because of the strike. Rewrites may have been needed...

Illinoisguy1 · 18 Jul 08 :: 08:27

First pics of the cast.

Nero (Eric Bana)

Kirk (Chris Pine)

Spock (Zachary Quinto)

Uhura (Zoë Saldana)

TeeJay · 18 Jul 08 :: 08:49

I wanna see Chekov!

TheCentralScrutinizer · 18 Jul 08 :: 15:11

Those are really cool, Illinois. Where'd you find them?

TeeJay · 18 Jul 08 :: 15:49

I don't know where Illinois found them, but TrekMovie.com published them. I had a look today and they're linked on the front page. I think they mentioned that they're posters for the upcoming Comic Con.

Illinoisguy1 · 19 Jul 08 :: 12:21

I found them originally on ontd.

Also if you put them together they make the Star Trek delta shield.

Also if you look very closely you can see the delta shield in their eyes, especially in Spock's eyes.

Five by five. Wicked cool.

Bigger version here:

Anton is in bottom right hand corner.

I will say that Anton doesn't look anything like Chekov at all. So far the only one that even looks like the original character is the new Spock.

They are working on the trailer, but waiting for the fx to be done on it.

TeeJay · 10 Aug 08 :: 17:30

My goodness, Anton doesn't look anything like Anton at all. Seriously, I've seen him in three different roles now, and I don't think I would have recognized him in that picture. But I do like it otherwise. Thanks for posting.

I had to look three times and I still did not recognize him. LOL
