STAR TREK

Star Trek is a 2009 science fiction film directed by J. J. Abrams and written by Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman. It is the eleventh film based on the Star Trek franchise and features the main characters of the original Star Trek series, who are portrayed by a new cast. The film introduces a parallel universe/alternate timeline separate from the continuity of the original series and the previous movies.[4] It explores the previously unexplored backstories of James T. Kirk (Chris Pine) and Spock (Zachary Quinto), before they unite aboard the USS Enterprise to combat Nero (Eric Bana), a Romulan from the future who threatens the United Federation of Planets. Released to traditional and IMAX theaters, the film debuted internationally (with some advance showings in Australia, New Zealand, Asia, Germany, Ireland, the United Kingdom, Canada and the United States) on May 7, 2009, and was widely released in North America, Brazil, Ireland and the United Kingdom on May 8, 2009.

Development of the film began in 2005 when Paramount Pictures contacted Abrams, Orci and Kurtzman for ideas to revive the franchise. The creative team contrasted Orci and Lindelof, who consider themselves "Trekkies", with casual fans like Abrams, who all aimed to create a film that would interest a general audience. They wanted to be faithful to the Star Trek canon, but they also introduced elements of their favorite novels, modified continuity with the time travel storyline, and modernized the production design of the original show. Filming took place from November 2007 to March 2008 under intense secrecy. Midway through the shoot, Paramount chose to delay the release date from December 25, 2008 to May 2009, believing the film could reach a wider audience. (via Wikipedia)

Star Wars: A Nude Hope

via toplessrobot.com ( 40 Days ago )
​Shockingly, this is not FFF. It appears that a group of concerned Star Wars fans, after seeing the oh-so-NSFW pics of the body-painted Star Trek cyclists, decided to take matters onto their own nipples and photograph themselves in Star Wars-inspired body paint (actually, it's just some photographer who shot chicks in SW-body paint, lord know when). As tequila-infused [...]

'Star Trek' Leads Most-Pirated List

via cinematical.com ( 45 Days ago )
2009 was a great year for Star Trek, but maybe not such a great year for parent studio Paramount. The J.J. Abrams' reboot found its way onto the top spot of 2009's "most-pirated" list, according to The Hollywood Reporter. With almost 11 million illegal downloads, that placed Trek just a tad higher than the number two film on the list, Paramount's Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. You [...]

When Religions Collide: A Star Trek Menorah

via geekologie.com ( 60 Days ago )
I have no idea if Star Trek is actually a religion but I say yes and from now on you will too or I will punch you so hard you bruise before I even make First Contact. See what I did there? I'm so wicked. Anyway, this is a Star Trek themed LED menorah. Sacrilegious or not? I actually don't really know a whole lot about Judaism (despite dating a Jewish girl briefly in highschool), [...]

The Star Trek Menorah Goes Where No Mensch Has Gone Before

via toplessrobot.com ( 61 Days ago )
​This home-made Trek Menorah lights up with LEDs, is made from that Pez Star Trek Collector's set from earlier this year, and delights me to the core of my being. I'm kind of confused by the thing on the left. It looks like the Enterprise painted onto a misshapen Easter Egg or something. also, notice how pissed Bones looks at being part of a Jewish Holiday tradition. [...]
