Cloverfield Director Says Star Trek Trailer is Fantastic, Great Way to Reboot the Franchise

MTV posted a brief interview with Cloverfield director Matt Reeves, in which he talks about the Star Trek movie trailer which will be attached to his upcoming monster movie, also produced by J.J. Abrams. Here are excerpts from the interview.

According to the Latino Review, the Star Trek teaser trailer shows the Constitution Class U.S.S. Enterprise being built.

"I think people are going to be very excited," he said, offering a sneak preview. "It's a teaser, you know, it's a teaser trailer. But still, I was like ‘Wow!' Just the scope of it, the scale of it, you just look at it and it's so elegantly done."

"It's one of those things where J.J. has a lot of ideas come out of [the fact that] he has a very simple, forceful way to express himself while capturing people's imaginations. I think what [he and his producers] are doing with the trailer is fantastic; this is a great way to reboot the franchise, and get people excited about something new."


"That's what excited me about seeing the trailer, was that I thought ‘Well, this does look completely different and new,'" he said. "But while having all the stuff that will make fans of ‘Star Trek' still feel fulfilled."

"I've seen little bits of the movie too, and I feel that way as well," the director said. "He's doing an amazing job; it's very exciting. It's not your grandfather's Star Trek, that's for sure."

The full interview is here

Cloverfield, with the Star Trek movie trailer attached, premieres January 18th.

Yeah, I am trying to keep my mind open regarding Star Trek XI but comments like "It's not your grandfather's Star Trek, that's for sure." are really disturbing.
