Paramount has hired the co-creators of "LOST," JJ Abrams and Damon Lindelof, to direct a new Star Trek film. Abrams will also write the film with his co-writers from M:I:III. Paramount wants a release to be ready in two years time. This movie is going to go WAY back, and focus on Kirk's early days at the Academy. I've read a script review for a Trek film of this premise. Warning, there are **SPOILERS** in the review.
My opinion of the review: eh. I'm a Star Trek fan, and the reviewer says the movie really captures the essence of the Star Trek spirit, whatever that means. But the storyline failed to really grab me or give me any, "THAT ROCKS!!" moments. What it did have was a lot of cheese-ball, Hollywood only meetings and chance encounters. Still, Abrams is one hell of a story teller, and I'm willing to give him a chance. I'll keep you posted.
