J.J. Abrams Says New Movie Soundtrack is Recorded, Trailer Made Simon Pegg Cry

Features

By GustavoLeao / 16:00, 21 October 2008 / Star Trek: Nemesis

MTV posted an interview with Star Trek director J.J. Abrams and here are few excerpts.

MTV: "Star Trek," this little film that you've directed that's coming out next summer, where do you stand on it? Do you have a final cut, music in place?


Abrams
: We've recorded most of the music, and we're about a week away from locking the movie.


MTV
: Can you speak to the running time? Am I in for two and half hours of brilliant "Trek"?


Abrams
: It will be a two-hour movie. I'm sick of these two-hours-and-forty-five-minute movies. Seriously, it's like I don't have enough time to say two hours and forty-five minutes. I'm exhausted just saying that twice. I can't stand it.


MTV
: Do you have it on your iPhone or something? I heard a rumor that you had "Trek" footage somewhere.


Abrams
: I did have it on my iPhone. Not the whole movie. I just had a little trailer footage. I showed Simon Pegg when we were at Comic-Con, I showed him this little trailer thing, and it was my favorite thing ever. He literally started weeping. It was ridiculous. He was sitting there, I mean, he must have been plastered. Because he was looking at my iPhone [crying].

The full interview is here.

It's a real eye opener for both those who contemplated it and for friends and family members of those who do.

Well, statistics have shown that those who truly want to commit suicide usually do so without telling people they're going to do so ahead of time. Those who want attention, not death, are more prone to bringing it up to others, in an effort to be talked out of it--but it's largely an attention-getting tactic, not a serious desire to kill themselves.

In any case, I wish you luck in getting the help you clearly need, because even if you're not seriously contemplating suicide (which I have to assume you're not, given that you're talking about it in a public forum), the fact that you're bringing it up at all means you really need to speak to someone--and not in an anonymous, online venue where no one can actually help you.

Star Trek forums are a great place to discuss Star Trek--which is why I very understandably misunderstood your first note to involve suicide because of the next Trek film--but real life is the place to deal with suicidal thoughts, not an anonymous forum.
