If 'Into the Darkness' is not a metaphor where Kirk and Spock get all dark and broody, than maybe it's a time travel story where they literaly go back or forward when there is no light.

At the moment we are surrounded by stars.

On the other hand, they could get swallowed by another giant Space Ameba (The Immunity Syndrome)

I agree...what a waste. Why even bother? In some ways I see Abrams, even as brilliant as he may be, as kind of a jerk.

I was watching Big Bang on TBS last night and they said J.J. was going to be on Conan and that he had something to show. I am glad I didn't stay up for that!!

I thought it was funny!

It would have been....if he had after showing that said just kidding now check this out! Instead it's a lame joke because they have not released anything yet and it's way late.

Yeah. I kinda felt the way you do Bryan. I kinda felt a bit like I got the thumb on the nose from him. I guess it's kinda funny, if you aren't a Star Trek fan.

We have all been waiting for news on the first look at JJ Abrams Star Trek Into Darkness. And this afternoon Paramount announced that a 9-minute extended preview of the movie will premiere  on IMAX 3D on December 14th. More details below.

press release

WORLD PREMIERE EXTENDED PREVIEW OF J. J. ABRAMS' "STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS" TO DEBUT IN IMAX 3D ON DECEMBER 14th

THE FIRST 9-MINUTES FROM THE ANTICIPATED SEQUEL WILL BE RELEASED EXCLUSIVELY IN DIGITAL IMAX 3D THEATRES WORLDWIDE

HOLLYWOOD, CA (November 14, 2012) – Paramount Pictures will release the first 9-minutes from J.J. Abrams' eagerly-awaited "STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS" exclusively in IMAX 3D months prior to the film's official release in May 2013. This first-look at the movie will play in approximately 500 digital IMAX 3D theatres beginning December 14th.

"STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS," the sequel to Abrams' 2009 hit film that redefined the Star Trek universe for a new generation, marks the first time exclusive footage has played in IMAX 3D and only the third time a first-look will be released in IMAX.

"Our longtime partners J.J. Abrams, Bryan Burk and the Bad Robot team have really hit it out of the park – the footage is absolutely incredible," said Greg Foster, Chairman and President, IMAX Filmed Entertainment. "Their use of the IMAX® Camera and canvas is sure to impress current and future Star Trek fans alike, and we're thrilled to once again work with our friends at Paramount Pictures to offer this extended 'first look' at this highly anticipated summer blockbuster."

To further the IMAX experience, "STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS" used IMAX cameras to capture several sequences. Exclusively in IMAX theaters, sequences filmed with the extremely high-resolution cameras will expand to fill more of the screen with unprecedented crispness and clarity, putting moviegoers right into the explosive action and vast scope of the film.

"STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS" is written by Damon Lindelof, Alex Kurtzman & Roberto Orci and directed by J.J. Abrams. Abrams is producing with Bryan Burk through Bad Robot Productions, along with Lindelof, Kurtzman and Orci.

Yeah, this was very well planned, no doubt. Crafty fox!

See, I told you all that there was nothing to worry about. I think this is awesome. Spending time to release 9 minutes worth of complete footage seem like a better use of time than a teaser trailer with placeholder music and unfinished graphics

IMAX 3D by the looks of it. It might cost me $20 but I might have to drive to the big city to check this out!
