The first episode from the fan production series called “Star Trek Continues” is now up for your viewing pleasure.  This episode marks the return of Michael Forrest as Apollo from TOS and a few other great guest stars as well as a very solid cast in these iconic roles.  I think this series is off to a great start and can’t wait to see what more they have in store for us in the future.  Check out the first episode below.  I know if you are a classic Trek fan you will especially enjoy it.

Now that “Star Trek Into Darkness” has been out for over a week we can look at some of the box office results and reviews.  Overall the movie has been doing well in both North America and overseas.  The box office has been solid and most people seem to think (myself included) that this is a great and very solid Trek film.  The film critics have been very favorable to the film and Entertainment Weekly rated this latest film in the franchise a solid grade of an ‘A.’  So grab a friend who hasn’t seen the movie yet and treat them to a ticket and some popcorn and go see this fun ride again.  I’m going today once more with my younger son who hasn’t seen the film yet (even my wife enjoyed the movie).  Enjoy “Into Darkness” once again!

As we countdown the last few days until the movie come out here in the US, we have a short little spot talking to JJ Abrams about “Star Trek Into Darkness.”  I really love what JJ has done with “Star Trek” so far and I think he gets what will entertain an audience as well as what makes these characters tick.  Check out his video spot below along with a couple other recent TV spots for the film – now coming out on May 16th in North America!

Many new commercial TV spots have been showing up for “Star Trek Into Darkness” as we get closer to the release date.  Lots of cool stuff in these videos that give us a taste of what we can expect from the film.  Here’s a sampling of some of the recent releases to promote this movie.

A couple of cool, clips have been released for this upcoming movie from Paramount.  The first clip was seen as part of the IMAX 9 minute preview that we got months ago showing the crew of the Enterprise trying to save Mr. Spock during a critical mission.  The other clip is part of an awesome chase scene as our heroes try to escape some pursuing Klingon ships.  Not long to go now until we can see these clips in the finished film.

A cool, new set of viral videos have popped up featuring the villain (John Harrison) from the upcoming “Star Trek Into Darkness” movie talking about his adversary, Captain James T. Kirk as well as other members of the Enterprise.  I think is really interesting in how it shows clips from the film but also talks a little about the characters too.  Great marketing idea I think.  Take a look below and see what you think.

A final, and amazing “Star Trek Into Darkness” trailer has now arrived.  A lot of information is in this trailer, lots of new footage, music and plenty of cool details.  I couldn’t more geeked or excited for this movie.  Only about a month away now – at least for those of us in the US.  Check it out!

A pretty cool domestic one-sheet movie poster has arrived for May’s, “Star Trek Into Darkness” film.  It pictures the Enterprise falling from orbit and in pretty bad shape.  I still strongly feel the old girl won’t be destroyed in this movie, but she certainly will need some repairs and TLC from Scotty after this adventure.  See the poster below and click HERE for a very hires version of it.
