Star Trek Into Darkness Goes, and Goes, Just Not Very Boldly

by Zoe Chevat | 11:03 am, May 20th, 2013

Into Darkness, that colon-less second installment of New Trek kicking off the summer season is a lot of things, including plentifully humorous, bombastic, well-designed, and confused about its purpose. Like the villain that menaced us from all those teaser posters, Into Darkness makes us wonder what, ultimately, it’s up to. Identity is a key factor to wonder about as, two movies in, even casual Trekkie patience is worn thin by a stream of visual and idealistic incursions that belong to other films. Make no mistake; Into Darkness is a good popcorn-crunching experience, swift on its feet and full of action and jokes. It’s just not, like its predecessor, much of a Star Trek film.

Ensign, take us to SPOILERS.

Emma Watson, Zachary Quinto, & The Pitch Perfect Cast Experience Ellen’s Kid Reporters

by Jill Pantozzi | 1:15 pm, April 19th, 2013

The other day we posted a still from this interview session of Star Trek’s Zachary Quinto and Chris Pine with The Ellen Show’s kid reporters/singing sensations, Sophia Grace and Rosie. The video has surfaced and features the adorable duo speaking with a few other stars backstage at the MTV Movie Awards. I’m not sure what part is my favorite, their photo-op with Emma Watson or watching the cast of Pitch Perfect try to upstage them at their speciality.

What Does Star Trek Into Darkness Have In Common With Princesses?

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:22 pm, April 16th, 2013

So much wonderful in this photo, it doesn’t even need to be explained. In other news, Zachary Quinto and Chris Pine are counting the minutes until they can talk about Star Trek Into Darkness for real. “The good news is we’re about two weeks away from being able to actually talk about it,” Quinto told MTV, with Pine adding, “It’ll be nice not to have to lie anymore.”

Now, release the video from this interview ASAP, Ellen.

Star Trek’s Chris Pine Threatens To Kidnap J.J. Abrams Over This Whole Star Wars Thing

by Jill Pantozzi | 11:45 am, February 1st, 2013

We know the long-running feud over Star Trek vs. Star Wars can range from telling jokes to throwing punches but the interesting thing about J.J. Abrams being chosen to direct the next Star Wars film was the entire world realized it was blasphemy, not just fandom. So what does the rebooted Trek’s Captain Kirk think of the news? Actor Chris Pine is excited for his friend, but also really serious about making sure he’s back on board the Enterprise in a few years. But what if Pine were to get a role in Abrams’ Star Wars? Would a black hole open up and suck all of us into it? Find out what Pine thinks.

Everyone Involved in Star Trek Into Darkness Is a Giant Troll [VIDEO]

by Rebecca Pahle | 1:15 pm, December 5th, 2012

First J.J. Abrams shares three frames of Star Trek Into Darkness on Conan. And now Zachary Quinto has contributed to the trollery with his own clip—or, well, “clip”—from the upcoming Trek sequel.

“I have a lot of respect for you and your audience,” said the actor to Conan, “and I wanted to bring something for you guys that was more than [three frames], you know.” Sure, Quinto. Sure. I don’t want to spoil the clip for you, but let’s just say it involves greenscreen and something resembling a Spock snuggie.

Simon Pegg tweeted yesterday that the Star Trek Into Darkness trailer is premiering online this Thursday. I swear, if Chris Pine shows up on Conan tonight to explain that the star of the film is actually—surprise!—William Shatner, I am going to scream.

And then possibly die laughing. I love this cast.

Star Trek 2 Facing Delays Due to Lack of Script, Director

by Jamie Frevele | 11:04 am, May 25th, 2011

A second installment of the rebooted Star Trek franchise has been a given for a while, even setting a release date for June 29, 2012. But as of right now, there is no official script, J.J. Abrams has yet to sign on as the director (although it seems as if this is still likely to happen), and Chris Pine (Captain Kirk) is set to take over the Jack Ryan role in the next Tom Clancy film adaptation. Will they kick things into high gear to compete with other huge 2012 releases The Dark Knight Rises and The Avengers, or will it hold out for a December release?
