TrekMovie.com posted the first part of an exclusive interview with Star Trek movie producer Damon Lindelof. Here are few excerpts.
TrekMovie.com: I know you are on the Trekkie wing of the court
Damon Lindelof: Just for the record the true Trekker is Bob [Orci]. I would say that on the spectrum of Trekkers, on a scale of 1 to 10, Bob is about a 7 and I would be somewhere in the 5 neighborhood. And Bryan [Burk], JJ [Abrams] and Alex [Kurtzman] would be somewhere in the 1-4 range varying. I have seen all the episodes of The Original Series and am a huge fan. Plus pretty much all the episodes of Next Generation and then I sort of floundered in the Deep Space Nine, Voyager, Enterprise era. I have seen all the movies, of course. But I would not hold myself to the high standards of Bob Orci.
TrekMovie.com: Well he has read the books too
Damon Lindelof: Yes that's true so he is even outside canon.
TrekMovie.com: As a Trek fan. What do you think is the essential component of Trek that will make to audiences today even though it is a forty year old franchise?
Damon Lindelof: What has always been appealing to me about it - aside from the sense of exploration and the wonder of waking up in a job and never know what you are going to find that day as opposed to the monotony of it all. What always has been awesome about Trek for me, and what makes this movie great, is the idea of this real team of people. This iconic crew of people and each person has their own function and they all interrelate with each other in interesting ways. And the center of the movie is the relationship and conflict between Kirk and Spock. The reality is, when we are on the set...when they are all together - Scotty and Uhura and Spock and Kirk and Chekov and Sulu and Pike...that you go ‘wow' This is what it is all about...the crew.
