STAR TREK BEYOND - SHIELDS UP

Its been a busy week for Sci-Fi with Star Trek Beyond showing in London last week and Sydney too. I'm not counting my tribbles yet before they become fully gorged but STB is 90% on Rotten Tomatoes and 71% on Metacritic so far.




So now Star Trek Beyond is set for US release on the 22nd of July 2016 and is opening up in theaters worldwide and beyond. We've been waiting for 3 sensational years to see a new STAR TREK movie since STID. How long is that? Approx 1095 days. I hope you're all set for a trektastic time!

 The question in my mind is: why did Captain Kirk wreck the bl**dy ship again? Is it really the Captain's fault the Enterprise got ravaged by alien "Swarms" with their leader  "Krall at the heart of the matter? Word has it Idris Elba's character means business because he wants the "ITEM", badly.

Scotty, Jaylah and Kirk


 Ahhha! I hear you ask. What is the item? SPOILER ALERT: So now the five year mission for the USS Enterprise NCC 1701 is finally justified when the crew discover this ancient "death machine" in the furthest reaches of unexplored space. But do they know what it is? It seems time is running out for our Gallant Crew and worse still for the Federation itself. Unity and Peace in the Galaxy may very well depend upon our friends very survival.



Three years into the Enterprise's five-year deep-space mission our mysterious Swarm ringleader Krall (Idris Elba) sees an opportunity. He has to get the ancient "death machine" of ultimate power, an artifact which Kirk's crew are custodians. I know what your thinking - its looking hopeless because the Enterprise crew are stranded on an alien planet!!! Hey. At least Scotty teams up with feisty Jaylah (Sofia Boutella), a potential love interest if only he'd stop calling her lassie.



The good news is Paramounts 3D and; 2D Star Trek threequel is directed by (Fast and Furious) Justin Lin (produced by J.J. Abrams) How many of our movie predictions will come true? 40 stunt people is a good indication of where Star Trek Beyond is headed with special effects and alien relationships evolving with this interstellar space adventure. Curiously Star Trek Into Darkness had 90 reinforcements.


Why is Uhura screaming with the grey alien looking on?

 MattTwentySix had this to say: It's a little Insurrection-ish once they're planet- side. There's another major twist with the villain (though I enjoyed it). But it gets the characters really right. It basically has a fantastic first act, an okay second act, and a fun ending that both serves as an ending to this cast and a jump-start to further adventures with them.

 What do you think? Have you got your "Starfleet" T-shirt all nice and pressed for the movie? XD, Go on do tell us if you have!

LIVE LONG AND PROSPER!

Star Trek Beyond - The Show Must Go On

Star Trek Beyonds latest addition for the thirteenth is finally shaping up with the master of disguise - J.J.Abrams producing and Justin Lin directing. So now heres trailer 3.




Its five year mission has according to Simon Pegg "a lot more to the film". The shields have weakened and with this final third trailer, I think Anton Yelchin would have wanted the show to go on.





We have his characters he played for fans to enjoy off the big screen. They're large as life so go see them. Rememory, We Don't Belong Here, Porto and Star Trek Beyond are due out later in the year.

Giacchino’s latest musical score and Pop star Rihanna's “Sledgehammer,” will also be a part of Star Trek Beyond





You might well ask who were Star Trek's aliens? Heres two standing beside Star Trek Beyond director, Justin Lin who also directed in Community and the Fast and Furious 6. Panny Pudi and Kim Kold before and after.

KIRK AND KRALL HAVE A DISAGREEMENT



IDRIS ELBA AS THE VILLAIN KRALL.  


CHEKOV, KIRK AND SULU.


 The rest of Star Trek's aliens include Idris Elba (Krall), Sofia Boutella (Jaylah), Zachary Quinto (Spock), Fiona Vroom (Green Girl) and Deep Roy we know as Scottys sidekick - Keenser. The crew of the USS Enterprise Ncc1701 is commanded by Captain James T. Kirk (Chris Pine) with Zoe Saldana (Uhua), Karl Urban (bones), Simon Pegg (Scotty) John Cho (Sulu) and Anton Yelchin as Chekov. You'll be able to catch them in action on July 22th when the captain breaks the Enterprise again. It seems like a fitting end for the great ship - considering.

Live Long and be Prosper.
