New Poster Sends Clues to Direction of Next Movie



A picture, even a mere image that hints at a broader picture, can instantly give you a snapshot of things to come.

The production team that now holds the creative reins for the next Star Trek movie project has released a piece of artwork this weekend (to coincide with Comic-Con) that provides a Polaroid of an era past, as well as a vision yet to be revealed. With this familiar imagery, the direction of the next movie is now officially open to speculation.

J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof are the film's producers; Bryan Burk, Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci are executive producers. The film is slated for release in 2008.

Well we can all tell what era the new movie is going to be in. Bad move if you ask me.

I think it might be good. There is still so much that is noncanon from that era. If done right it could be great. I strongly urge the IF part.

Personally, I think a complete "reboot" of the Star Trek universe is needed. Most people today that would be interested in it were not around in 1966 when TOS came to the little silver screen. Now would be the perfect time to "reinvent" the wheel, like with BSG. I think a new movie taking the lead to a new version of Star Trek would be great. Sure, some old farts are going to object. But why not. Back in 1965 when they started Star Trek, they had to make all the sets with 1960's Technology. Imagination was way higher than the technical possibilties back then. Just imagine what Star Trek: The original Series would look like if they started making it in 2007!

The latest on the next movie

I just wanted to post this.

STARTREK.COM said:
J.J. Abrams, producer of hit shows Lost and Alias, as well as director of the upcoming Paramount film "Mission: Impossible III," is slated to produce and possibly direct the next Star Trek feature, according to today's Daily Variety and sources at Paramount Pictures. There is no title as yet for the new movie, but it will be the eleventh in the franchise. (Until a title is selected, we will usually refer to the project as simply "Star Trek XI.")
Although there isn't an official Paramount press release announcing the movie, it is a confirmed project under development with a 2008 release date targeted. Word about the Abrams project surfaced this morning (April 21) in the daily trade paper. He will be writing the script with Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, who penned "M:i:III." STARTREK.COM will keep you up to date on all official statements as they are released.

According to Variety, the proposed story will focus on the early days of James T. Kirk and Spock, including their first meeting at Starfleet Academy and their first mission in space. UPDATE 04.27.06: Abrams has since indicated this may not be the case; see this article for his recent comments.

Abrams' producing partners from Lost, Damon Lindelof and Bryan Burk, are cited as being producers on "Trek XI." This project is separate from the previously rumored script developed by Eric Jendresen and overseen by Rick Berman. The former Star Trek producer is not involved in this project.

This announcement is exciting news, and we look forward to following developments on this project every step of the way!

It looks like we will be getting some new info in the next few months about what is happening with this.

TMC, have you asked about if that link was ok? The link shows to advertising of products and shopping as well so I'm not sure if it's ok.

On another note, I'm really starting to look forward to this new movie.

Looking good but I hate the bridge, it's too white and light!

Yeah, the bridge really looks stupid. Looks like it was build by Apple. This CIC design has more in common with an Ipod than a typical Trek bridge :lol:


From what it looks like, Star Trek XI is promising.
The "Bad Romulan Nero" looks like Shinzon...

I have to say, the actors are going to take some getting used to... I hope they put on a great performance.

If they don't, Trek is doomed.


I give Star Trek XI a chance, but I definately will watch it in a cinema where they show the English version. German synchro is getting worse and worse.

I'm still very very very nervous about ST XI, but I will, like most, give it a chance... And what are the odds that they have a MAC powering the screen displays on the bridge? :p

All in all, looks good. Great cast (if you ask me), and nice layouts. Can't say I'm overly fond of a bald Romulan (too much like Shinzon), and am not a fan of that new ship design. They should have used the common Akula Class or something.

It seems as if an image of the Enterprise herself has been released.

Not Impressed!!!!

'Star Trek': An exclusive first look at the Enterprise | PopWatch Blog | EW.com

The ship design has been floating around the web for quite sometime. I must say I am not overly joyed by the design, I would design it a little more like the TOS version but have it fit in with Enterprise, something like my re-imagine models just with darker textures or like some of the fan designs over at Sci-Fi Meshes.

I have mixed feelings about the new ship. Since it's supposed to be the original 1701, I don't see why they had to mess with the design that much. However at the same time, I'm open-minded, so it's good to see something fresh.

Looks as if they even changed the layout of the bridge a bit as well wonder what else they are planing to change.

And I also agree I am not impressed by the look of the new enterprise.
