Rumor Mill : Description of Star Trek Movie Trailer Online ?

Features

By GustavoLeao / 10:11, 2 July 2008 / Star Trek: Nemesis

Cinema Blend posted what they claim is the first description for the upcoming full trailer of J.J. Abrams Star Trek movie. Here is an excerpt of the description (beware of spoilers) :

Paramount logo shows (newly updated) and pans up into the stars... Then an incredible (new?) musical score begins which sounds as if a little of Trek 2 and 3 scores were blended in. Switches to shots of stunning starfields. Closeups of the Enterprise hull while voice-over begins. Narration from older Spock: "The needs of the many... outweigh the needs of the few.." quick pause... Younger Spock: "Or the one" (Quintos line seemed so Leonard Nimoy sounding!)Switch to shot of Leonard Nimoy and Zachary Quinto standing together looking over a horizon at the Enterprise on Earth with an epic city in the background.

The classic Trek overture begins (sounds far more symphonic and far more intense). Narrator: "Next Summer Paramount Pictures Presents..." "The beginning.... of the greatest epic.... of our time" Music dramatically intensifies with numerous planets shown (special effects are mind-blowing).

Chris Pine (?) narration begins with music continuing to intensify while showing a space bound Enterprise.... "Space... "The final frontier...." Quick shots of Kirk, Spock, McCoy "These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise," Quick shots of Chekov, Uhura "Its mission (no 5-year mentioned), to explore stange new worlds.." Quick shots of Scotty and Sulu "To seek out new life and new civilizations.." Jaw dropping running shot of the Enterprise about to go to warp (hairs on me are standing on end) "To bodly go where no one has gone..." "Before"

Enterprise goes into warp, but the warp effect is new with more starfield movement going to warp and then an incredible warp sound and flash as the Enteprise hits warp speed. Star Trek overture continues Then the standard "This film has not yet been rated" appears Then ...Launch Date 5-8-09[...]

This information is preliminary, of course, and entirely rumor.

Much more at the full description at Cinema Blend.

UPDATE - RUMOR  DEBUNKED : TrekMovie.com has confirmed the description IS NOT for the next Star Trek trailer. According to studio sources, it is a fake.

In case you haven't noticed, this movie is likely to center around Spock. So why not hear his famous axiom in the movie preview? (Now if that wasn't fan boy, I don't know what is) Uh , I don't know about you but, I don't think Trek appeals to everyone , nor will it ever. However, if you can get the majority of even passerby trek fans, this movie could be a success. Its just that it needs to start anew. I happen to like the idea of a new cast for the original show.

Since it's been debunked, the point is moot. But the fact is Spock's famous axiom is only famous for Trekkies. Once again Paramount and Abrams and everyone else connected with this film have said that this is an attempt at making a Trek for everyone, not just us. And that means there are only 2 pieces of "catchphrase" dialogue that we can expect in this film: someone saying "beam us up Scotty" (probably as an ironic joke since that's the big Trek cliche), and the "Where no man ..." monologue. And probably a joke about redshirts. That's it.

Whether or not it's successful, that remains to be seen. But that's the way it's got to be, at least for this film.
