Cool Video: “Star Trek” video game trailer is now online!!!

June 7, 2011 Leave a comment

Star Trek the Videogame trailer has surfaced the web today, brought to you by IGN. As expected, the game looks impressive. Yes, the trailer does show game play footage from the game.

Hopefully, it’ll be a long game and won’t be too easy to play. I hate those kind of games when you get excited for something, the game turned out to be too short and too easy to finish.

Report: New “Star Trek” video game is on the way!!!

June 5, 2011 Leave a comment

Last year, Cryptic Studios released a Star Trek game, called, “Star Trek Online”. Which is an online multi-player game for the PC only. Just announced earlier this week, Paramount announced that there will be a new “Star Trek” video game that will be available for the PS3, Xbox, and PC. The new “Star Trek” game will be adapted from JJ Abrams 2009′s “Star Trek” movie. The new game will continue the adventure from that film, and you’ll get to play either Spock or Kirk. The new “Star Trek” game will be released sometime next year in 2012.

More on it, here.

As a huge Star Trek fan, I’m very excited for this, so I’ll definitely be getting it. I wonder if they’re going to have Zachary Quinto and Chris Pine voice for Spock and Kirk?

I’m sure it’ll be a nice game.

Happy Birthday: Leonard Nimoy

March 26, 2011 Leave a comment

Lets say happy birthday to another Star Trek actor. I wish Leonard wouldn’t retire from acting this soon. It’s understandable why he doesn’t want to play Spock anymore since he’s played the same character for over 20 years.

Both William Shatner and Leonard are inspirational to me. Leonard also turned 80 today. Happy Birthday to Spock! Live long and prosper!

Here is my favorite scene from “Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan”.

Happy 80th William Shatner!!! :-)

March 22, 2011 Leave a comment

 

I have followed William Shatner’s career for years. You have to give so much respect for this great man. He’s an American icon, and one of the true legends in the entertainment business, in my opinion. This man has done it all. He’s done everything in the entertainment business, that he could run out of things to do.

Lets look at all the things he has done over the years:

  • Movie actor for the big screen
  • TV actor – for commercials, sitcoms and a handful of other shows…
  • TV show host – from “Rescue 911″ to “Shit My Dad Says”, etc. list goes on….
  • Film director
  • Screenwriter
  • Stand up comic
  • Novelist/writer (he’s written a handful of Star Trek books, biographies, and the “Tek War” series)
  • Spoken word musician/singer
  • Professional wrestler (yes, he did that too)

I think that pretty much covers it. I don’t think there is anything he hasn’t done yet. He’s 80 years old, still doing the things he loves doing. He hasn’t retired yet. I don’t think he will call it quits until the day he dies. It’s amazing he’s 80 years old and hard to believe too.

Congrats Shat, and happy birthday, man! You’re such a huge inspiration to me!

Report: “Star Trek” “Twin Peaks”, “Frasier”, “Twilight Zone” and many more TV shows coming to Netflix brought to you by CBS…

February 23, 2011 Leave a comment

To fans of the original “Star Trek” and the original “Twilight Zone” TV series, you’ll soon be able to stream them on Netflix this Spring. CBS made a two year deal with Netflix to bring us a slew of TV shows everything from “Medium”, “Twin Peaks”, “Star Trek”, “Frasier”, and more.

The Hollywood reporter, reports.

I’m a huge Star Trek fan so I can’t wait for this ’cause I haven’t seen the entire original Star Trek series. I’ve seen a lot of episodes but not all of them. Now I’ll get to in the Spring!

I don’t have Netflix yet, but I will be getting it hopefully soon. I can get Netflix directly on my PS3 now.

Cool Photo: Spock on the set of “Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home”!!!

November 23, 2010 Leave a comment

With me being a huge Star Trek fan, I just had to post this one for myself. Here is Leonard Nimoy still dressed up as Spock, behind the scenes of “Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home” which Leonard directed himself. Remember, the Starfleet team goes back to our current time to visit San Francisco. The mission is, they had to go back in time to save two humpback whales and actually communicate with them. They had to do it to save Earth from a destructive space probe.

Seriously, as some of you may or may not know, I’m a huge Star Trek fan. I’m a die hard Trekkie. I love anything Star Trek and the “Voyage Home” was one of my favorite Star Trek films.

Enjoy this shot of Leonard directing the camera crew behind the scenes, in San Francisco.

Thought: Will the Star Trek movies get re-released into 3-D????

September 29, 2010 Leave a comment

It is no surprise to me that all 6 Star Wars movies will be getting re-released to theaters for 3-D. I’m sure it’s no surprise to everyone else either. My question is, will Paramount Pictures, do the same for the first 10 Star Trek films? The original Star Trek and the Next Generation movies? I think that will happen down the road. There’s a few Star Trek films that I think would be really cool in 3-D like, “Star Trek: The Motion Picture” for starters, that’s a big special effects movie. “The Wrath of Khan” and “The Voyage Home” would look great in 3-D as well. As for the Next Generation movies, I can see, “Generations”, “First Contact” and “Nemesis” looking cool in 3-D. I’m sure Paramount has this planned out. Star Trek in 3-D won’t happen right away but definitely sometime down the road.

Report: “Star Trek” is the most illegally downloaded movie of 2009…

December 28, 2009 Leave a comment

While piracy and stealing movies off the internet is now against the law, lots of people are STILL downloading illegally. People still think they have the right to steal things for free and think it’s okay. I am not a pirate. I like to respect “copyright” and the artist’s work. Besides, why would people want to watch movies on a computer when it’s better watching ‘em on the big screen or on a 50 inch TV with home theater surround sound at home.

“Star Trek” happens to be the most downloaded film of 2009.

The law can’t stop people from piracy. Pirates don’t even feel guilty for stealing. I predict Stallone’s, “The Expendables” will be the most pirated movie of 2010, hands down.

Could JJ Abrams “Star Trek” actually win “Best Picture”???

December 10, 2009 Leave a comment

Look like the Star Trek franchise can actually land their first Oscar win for “Best Picture”, because there is a huge buzz going around the movie sites online, that the film could get a nomination. I agree, it deserves a nomination ’cause the film is a beautiful film. I love it to death. Could the Star Trek franchise actually be lucky to win one? None of the Star Trek movies from the past never got a nomination before.

If JJ’s “Star Trek” actually gets the win for “Best Picture” in 2010, that would be very surprising. I have a feeling that the Best Picture win will either go to “Precious”, “Inglourious Basterds” or “Avatar”…but “Star Trek” can actually get it.

It would be nice if something different wins the Oscars. “Star Trek” is a mix of action and sci fi, the new film. I would love it if it got the win for “Best Picture”, I don’t see it happening.
