Man, if they can pull this character off it sounds like this could go down as one of the best movies in not only the series but in general for 2013.

JJ Abrams talks about Star Trek: Into Darkness:

Quote

"So this movie doesn’t require you have seen the first movie," says Abrams. "The characters are a group of people who have recently come together and find themselves up against  this incredibly terrifying force. His name is John Harrison and he is sort of an average – that is what makes him so scary – he is just an average guy who works in an organization called Starfleet, and he turns against the group because he has got this back-story and this kind of amazing secret agenda. After two very violent attacks, one in London and one in the US, our characters have to go after this guy and apprehend him. And it is a far more complicated and difficult thing then they ever anticipated. "Into Darkness" is very much about how intense it gets and really what they are up against. 

"I love movies that are big and unabashedly a huge fan of big pop mass appeal movies. I do love that. I love being in a theater packed with people and everyone gasping at the same time and having that communal experience. I don’t like going to the movies to feel bad. I don’t like going to the movies to feel depressed and feel diminished. The reason you go to the movies is to feel bigger and stronger and happier. So this is a movie that they certainly go ‘Into Darkness,’ but I would be the wrong director if it was about characters staying there. This is very much a movie about hope, about love, about romance, and about facing something that is truly terrifying and finding a way through the connection of your family and surviving and being stronger afterwards."

The full movie will blow your mind. J.J Abrahams is a man of his word and when he said this movie is mind blowing, you better believe it.

Sorry, stop idolising - it's making you sound like JediXAngel! You haven't seen the movie so your opinion is no more or less valid than his!

On how director JJ Abrams pitched the role to Cumberbatch--
"JJ described the role in movie terms as a mixture of Hannibal Lector, Jack in the Shining and The Joker in Batman. There are sorts of levels to pitch in amongst quite a high bar as well to succeed in comparison to. It was a framework to understand this character before I saw the whole script."

Those shots are looking good, I think this will end up better than the first one and I really liked the first one so that's great.

I know. Those pictures look great.

Finally saw The Hobbit (IMAX) today and they ran an extended premiere before the film of the Volcano scene with a perfect cutaway/cliffhanger before running the rest of the teaser. It looked amazing in 3D. I can't wait.

Can't wait for this film, first one (2009) was awesome, this one looks even better!
