ComingSoon.net posted an extensive report of their visit to J.J. Abrams' Santa Monica-based Bad Robot Productions for a presentation of Star Trek Into Darkness and talk to the crew working on the movie. Here are few points in their report (beware of spoilers):

_   Abrams himself began the presentation with a look at a new extended trailer that will be online December 17th. The primary difference between it and the first trailer (along with a few extra shots) is a voiceover by Bruce Greenwood's Admiral Pike. He tells Chris Pine's Captain Kirk that Kirk is just too reckless and that, one day, his actions are going to get him and his entire crew killed. There's also a rather intriguing shot of what appears to Zachary Quinto's Spock leaping from the top of a city skyscraper.


_  In the beginning of the film, Kirk and Karl Urban's Dr. McCoy have infiltrated the Nibiru society to stop a volcano from erupting. Because of the Prime Directive, they can't reveal themselves and wear full body robes.


_  As far as plot details, it was also revealed that the "civilian" outfits that the crew are seen wearing in the trailer are from a sequence on Qo'noS, the Klingon homeworld.

"Trek" fans will no doubt notice the similarities between the film's new Starfleet wetsuits and the costumes from "Star Trek: Enterprise." Similar in color, the suits have the same colored lines on either shoulder to signify yellow for command, blue for science and medical or red for engineering and security. Uhura's wetsuit is a bit different, however, reversing the scheme and giving her a primarily red outfit.

Also present was Spock's protective volcano suit, covered in metal tiles and weighing over 60 pounds.

"He's going into an active volcano," ccostume designer Ann Foley explained, "so we wanted something that looked like it could protect him. J.J. loved the idea of seeing the flames reflected off of his suit and off of his visor... It's really beautiful how it works."
