Star Trek 12 Gets Release Date

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

http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2010/01/11...-nothing-else/

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 say I wouldn't mind jettisoning Abrams - this four years between films shit is ridiculous, and it will only get worse now that he's dabbling in Star Wars.

Personally, I'd rather see a new series set in the new timeline, but obviously you'd lose the current stars. Unless it went to HBO or something similar. Man, Star Trek with HBO quality would rock. Although they'd probably turn Sulu and Chekov into gay lovers, which would be annoying.

True, but you get a nude Zoe Saldana and Alice Eve. I'd be OK with that tradeoff.

HBO stuff is great, but seriously, it's like there's some hi-placed queer in the company who threatens to hold his breath and turn blue unless there's gay sex in every series. I guess we're lucky they didn't have the troops humping each other in Band of Brothers and The Pacific. You just know somebody probably fought like hell to get that thrown in.

Star Trek Into Darkness
is performing very poorly at the box office. It's $20 million under estimates this weekend and the numbers will continue to slip. It'll likely hit its budget of $190 million but I think the future will is murky. It's taken in less during its opening weekend than Star Trek in 2009. That is not a good sign.

Abrams has never been a Star Trek fan and he's off to the Star Wars universe, his true first love. Orci, Kurtzman and Lindelof haven't shown that they can create blockbuster movies on their own and Lindelof's quickly developing a "Franchise Killer" rep around town. Paramount will likely look to a completely different team if the decide to move forward.

Paramount was really upset with Abrams and the four year lag between films and the box office disappointment with the sequel will likely give them pause when considering another director, writer and most importantly, budget, if they decide to move forward in the Star Trek universe.

Right now, I don't think that's a given. Studios don't usually make movies, especially big budget summer blockbusters, with the intent to "break even".

Dane, don't you think there is sort of a cap with how much box office potential there is with Trek? I know the last film did well, but that was sort of an anomaly. Trek has sort of always been niche to an extent. I wouldn't say it holds the 4 quadrant appeal of most summer blockbusters. I don't think I saw anyone under 21 in my audience except my son and a few other families with small kids. Very limited female appeal as well.

Yeah, it's amazing. That was my gut reaction too.

I mean, it was entertaining. But after all that special effects wizardry thrown into my face.....

"Meh."

It just proves that Star Trek really isn't about special effects.

I went with my sons, 18 and 14. The older one is fairly familiar with the TOS; in fact, last night we watched three of my favorite TOS episodes, and we both agreed they were better than this high-tech movie. He had pretty much the same reaction I did.

My 14-year-old, though, knows virtually nothing about TOS, and he liked the movie more than we did. And I'm sure there's lots of folks, young and old, like him out there.

I agree with GoChiefs: Come up with something original. If I see there are whales in the next one, I'm checking out.

Just got back from seeing. Enjoyable summer flick but the first one was better. I've never really watched the original star trek shows much or movies but this has garnered my interest to seeing the original show and movies.

I was a big Next Generation fan and have enjoyed those movies.

I love the cast in these movies but felt like it could've been more.

Those are all good ones. Doomsday Machine is my favorite, as well. I especially love it with the enhanced special effects.

I still remember the first time I saw that when I was a little kid, before I realized that lead characters couldn't die. I was going nuts at the end.
