Movies and TV Star Trek 12 Gets Release Date - Page 16

**Buck** · 01-11-2010, 12:24 PM

I'm not sure if its Star Trek 12 or Star Trek 2, but the release date is June 29, 2012.

UPDATE: Paramount has confirmed to MTV that the projected release date for the "Star Trek" sequel is indeed June 29, 2012.

This counts as news, but there's not much to it. We all know there's a "Star Trek" sequel coming. Hell, Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, writers/producers of the May reboot, were talking about sequel possibilities as far back as the week after the first movie came out. Now we have a date to pin our hopes to: June 29, 2012.

Nothing else is known or announced, so don't ask. Maybe director J.J. Abrams will return to helm the sequel, maybe he won't. Maybe Khan will be the villain, maybe not. For all we know, the plan is to give us an epic "Star Trek Meets Star Wars" crossover. Could happen, right?

The news comes from a variety of sources, including Ain't It Cool News and Box Office Mojo, but there's no Paramount-issued press release that I can find. The information ran through some trustworthy sources, but we've yet to receive comment from the studio directly.

Regardless, there really hasn't ever been any doubt that we'd be seeing more "Star Trek." Abrams' take on the series made it friendly to an entirely new, much wider audience than its ever known before.

Were you anything less than certain that a "Star Trek" sequel was coming eventually? Where would you like the story to go from where it is now? Any specific hopes for the sequel?

I will never try to convince someone to spend $229 dollars on that ****ing piece of shit.

If anyone ever asks me "What did you think of Lost? Should I buy it?", the answer would be a resounding NO.

**** LOST.

No one ever said you had to.

Seriously. I nearly bailed in the second season and wish now that I had. As I've mentioned before, this is why I won't watch Revolution.

Exactly. That's why I won't watch Revolution, either, or Person of Interest or Undercovers or Flash Forward. As I stated earlier, Fringe should have ended last year but no, they had to get to 100 episodes for $yndication.

The final seasons of Lost and Fringe are like Highlander 2. Everything that was so cool about Highlander was wiped out by the sequel.

And everything that was cool about Lost and Fringe were wiped out by their respective final seasons.

Person of Interest is one of the best shows on television right now. It's really, really good.

There's really nothing in the show (so far) that's reminiscent of the stuff that led to the issues with Alias and Lost. The machine that provides the numbers has been completely explained, from fairly early on, and while there are flashbacks, they don't happen every week. And when they do have them, they actually help move the show forward.

Love that show. Haven't missed an episode since it started. You're really doing yourself a disservice if you don't watch it based on previous Bad Robot missteps and I would (and do) wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone with zero reservations. It's that good.

If anyone's interested in reading about some pretty deep flaws in Abrams' style, (ex. character development, plot holes, and his career as "Jeffrey Abrams") this article should interest you.

P.S. I do still enjoy most of his work, but he should probably not build the foundation of a TV series ever again.

Super 8 was a major disappointment. Without Spielberg's involvement (which is clearly obvious), it would have been a disaster, and even with, it wasn't very good.

keg in kc · 12-12-2012, 08:21 PM

Yep, Super 8 was a total let-down.

Deberg_1990 · 12-12-2012, 08:40 PM

Wow, I liked Super 8. I didn't see it until a few months ago, but I enjoyed it.

It was E.T. crossed with Cloverfield, a crappy score and an unoriginal alien.

Since Cloverfield was garbage...

I've stayed in Super 8 motels with more character and charisma than that POS movie.

Horse shit. I don't believe for a second that you have ever stayed in a Super 8. LOL
