"Sorry Mike, I got my big 'one month since we said I love you' celebration. Sammy's getting some hammy tonight." - Sam, Burn Notice
There’s not really anything new about doing individual character posters for a movie. Films have been doing it for a while now and we saw a bunch of them this summer. What J.J. Abrams has done with Star Trek, however, is something new. The first set of four character posters for Star Trek was released during Comic Con. We now have a second set that was released at VegasCon ‘08.
I’ve been meaning to tell you guys about this cool little project for awhile now, but it got put on the back-burner until last night.
The amazing model builders from Quantum Mechanix are working on a replica of that little space vessel from the Firefly TV series named Serenity. Some of their other work includes a Cylon Raider Artisan Replica for $900+ and an upcoming Basestar that flat-out looks awesom
I think those of us who have been following news about the upcoming J.J. Abrams Star Trek film have long known that Zachary Quinto, the man picked to play a younger version of Spock bears a striking resemblance to Leonard Nimoy who originated the character. Well, now we have a side by side comparison thanks to Vic over at ScreenRant.com.
Entertainment Weekly’s latest issue had some pretty cool new posters for the Star Trek movie from J.J. Abrams coming in 2009.
TrekMovie.com scanned them all and published all four on their website. They feature James T. Kirk (Chris Pine), Spock (Zachary Quinto), Uhura (Zoe Saldana) and bad guy Nero (Eric Bana).
It seems like forever since we’ve had any new details on J.J. Abrams’ upcoming Star Trek reboot movie. However, Screen Rant is reporting that Paramount had a panel at Creation Entertainment’s 16th Annual GRAND SLAM: THE SCI-FI SUMMIT in Burbank, California, this past weekend in which screenwriter Roberto Orci and Leonard Nimoy was in attendance and the two dished out a few details we haven’t heard before.
Anton Yelchin (Alpha Dog, Star Trek, Charlie Bartlett) is in negotiations to star as John Connor’s father Kyle Reese in director McG’s Terminator 4 (which remains untitled and, apparently, thankfully, isn’t being called “The Return of the Terminator” after all).
It’s been a while since we’ve posted anything new concerning the Star Trek film. The truth is, there hasn’t been a lot of new news to report. AICN, however, published some set photos early this morning that were taken at Cal State Northridge.
NBC and CBS recently began offering some of their classic TV shows online as streaming videos. One of the offerings from CBS is the original Star Trek series. CBS has made every episode of the 1966 to 1969 series’ original run available online and uncut.
NBC was the first to announce last week that they would begin streaming some of the classic TV shows on their family of websites including NBC.com, SCIFI.com, ChillerTV.com and SleuthChannel.com beginning this month. CBS followed suit by posting full seasons of several of its classic TV programs in high quality on CBS.com.
