Trek Trailer Watch

Last month, the folks over at TrekMovie said that the first theatrical trailer for the Star Trek reboot was edited, awaiting some effects shots, and should be shown sometime in 2008.

AICN posted s a report from a UK press screening where suits at Paramount Pictures showcased footage from a number of their top films of 2009...Among them Trek...

Here's a description of the Trek stuff:

We saw the teaser trailer and then we saw what looked to be a very very early version of the full trailer – It showed more footage of [Zachary Quinto] as Spock, much more Chris Pine and also some John Cho and Simon Pegg footage. The film looks like immense fun and there seems to be a lot of action in it. There look of the crew and the bridge is spot on and the costumes look like the original but with a more modern and practical twist. We got to see Spock talking to his parent as well and Kirk being told to take more responsibility. There were also a lot of montage scenes involves spaceship battles, gun fights and hand to hand combat. I especially like a short clip where we see the crew running through the corridors of the Enterprise – reminded me of Next The Next Generation loads.

Very general type stuff--I'm really surprised how close to the vest every one has been with the footage--keeping anitcipation high...for the May release.

TrekMovie is still trying to confirm a date for the trailer and will provide an update as soon as possible.

Maybe we'll see the next trailer attached to Sept 26's Eagle Eye?

Wishful thinking?
