AP also posted a new video interview with Star Trek director J.J. Abrams, in which he again promotes the DVD release of Cloverfield, and of course, talks a bit about the Star Trek movie. Here are few excerpts of the video interview, cortesy of TrekMovie.

"[...] Though I would never be saying that about a movie like Star Trek which is a huge, epic, massive film, the idea of Cloverfield is this terrifying experience captured on video tape." said Abrams "So when you watch it on your television it actually feels like it is being viewed properly."

"We wrapped production on Star Trek last week and we are editing now. It was the most exciting, challenging, but satisfying experience. The cast is spectacular. The movie is so much fun. I am just dying for you to see it."

More excerpts from Abrams can be found at TrekMovie.

The full video interview is here.

So why aren't they saying it's a terrific movie?

Because nothing's been edited yet.

Would you say "It's a terrific cake" if it hadn't been baked yet, just on the basis of the recipe and tasting the flour, eggs, milk, and sugar?

Let the cooks do their job. Once it comes out of the oven, then we can take a taste (or eat the whole thing, if you want to carry the analogy to an absurd conclusion).

Very few folks working on the movie can say it's a good film with any modicum of integrity, since they haven't actually seen it yet. The most an actor could honestly say at this point is exactly what they've been telling us: that's it's a wonderful script, that J.J. is great, they liked the scenes they were in, etc.
