  • New Star Trek Into Darkness Trailer (Yes, Another One)

    If you didn’t get a chance to see the nine minute preview of Star Trek Into Darkness over the weekend before viewings of The Hobbit (one word: amazeballs) then here is the brand spanking new trailer for the followup to the 2009 reboot.

    Not to be confused with the trailer shown a couple of weeks back this trailer begins with Bruce Greenwood’s Christopher Pike giving Kirk some harsh advice which then segues into the Benedict Cumberbatch voiceover from the previous trailer. The preview ends with the scene from the Japanese trailer that looks to have a bit of foreshadowing or it could just be JJ Abrams keeping us on the hook.

    Star Trek Into Darkness releases on May 17, 2013.

  • Star Trek Into Darkness Teaser Trailer Is Here

    Get Ready To Boldly Go Again.

    The first teaser trailer for Star Trek Into Darkness has gone up and it does not disappoint even though it only runs a little over a minute.

    Villain Benedict Cumberbatch narrates over the trailer with malice and evil intent. I would like to go ahead and say that if he does not steal the movie I will be shocked. His identity is still a mystery with most leaning towards Gary Mitchell from the original series episode “Where No Man Has Gone Before” but there is still a small inkling that he could still be Khan.

    Don’t forget that the first nine minutes of Star Trek Into Darkness will be screened before IMAX showings of The Hobbit on about 500 screens next week.

    Check out the trailer below and let us know what you think.

    Batman Rises And Master Chief Moves Forward.

    Christopher Nolan ends his Bat trilogy in a big way with Bane, the League of Shadows and a really big bomb. Some were less than kind but we here thought it was a great ending. Check out our review here.

    You know how collections work. All three Nolan Bat flicks in one box.

    The web series makes it way to Blu-Ray. It is somewhat of a prequel to Halo 4 telling how Thomas Lasky first came to meet the man known as Master Chief. It is a fun and well produced series and should be checked out by all Halo fans.

    Picard and company’s second season gets the high def remaster. Season One was very beautiful and who doesn’t want to see the Federation’s first contact with the Borg again all shiny and new.

    Wu Dang? Yeah, Wu Dang. I haven’t had a chance to see this yet but most reviews have been saying this is a fun adventure flick that is basically a “kung-fu Indiana Jones”. High praise indeed.

     

     

  • Star Trek Into Darkness Poster Revealed

    Yes, We Know What It Looks Like.

    Let the excitement begin. Here is the first poster for J.J. Abrams Star Trek Into Darkness. The scene seems to be a decimated London as Benedict Cumberbatch’s character (Gary Mitchell?) looks out over the destruction which just so happened to fall in the shape of a Starfleet symbol. Funny how that happens.

    And yes we understand that this looks like last year’s poster for The Dark Knight Rises but is that really a bad thing?

    For those looking for more Star Trek Into Darkness it has already been announced that the first trailer will be shown in front of The Hobbit and that the first nine minutes of the movie will be shown on about 500 IMAX screens before The Hobbit also.

    Check out the official synopsis for the movie below and let us know what you think of the poster.

    Star Trek Into Darkness releases on May 17, 2013.

    “In Summer 2013, pioneering director J.J. Abrams will deliver an explosive action thriller that takes “Star Trek Into Darkness.”

    When the crew of the Enterprise is called back home, they find an unstoppable force of terror from within their own organization has detonated the fleet and everything it stands for, leaving our world in a state of crisis.

    With a personal score to settle, Captain Kirk leads a manhunt to a war-zone world to capture a one man weapon of mass destruction.

    As our heroes are propelled into an epic chess game of life and death, love will be challenged, friendships will be torn apart, and sacrifices must be made for the only family Kirk has left: his crew.”

     

     

  • Star Trek Sequel Gets A Title

    In celebration of Star Trek’s 46th anniversary, JJ Abrams followup to his 2009 reboot of the franchise has officially been given a title. The movie will be titled Star Trek Into Darkness and no I did not forget to place a colon in the middle. While initially it seems a little weird for a movie title I see it as how they used to name episodes for the original series (Where No Man Has Gone Before, Tomorrow Is Yesterday, etc.) so it’s got a good vibe with me right off the bat.
