Trek Shooting Begins Today

Star Trek 2 has begun filming today, and several facts about the production have emerged.

According to TrekMovie.com, the movie is being shot on Sony Studios stages in Culver City as well as at the Hollywood Paramount lot.

One place the filming will not be happening is Hawaii. Although J.J. Abrams went to Hawaii to check it out as a possible place to film a “jungle planet” scene, a location in Southern California was ultimately chosen for those scenes.

Star Trek 2 will use more sets, including sections of the USS Enterprise not seen in 2009′s Star Trek XI, than were used in the first film.

    Is Abrams going to blow up another world?

    Don’t you mean, “Is Kurtzman and Orci going to blow up another world?” They wrote it that way. He just directed it. I wonder if anyone asked that question during the Star Wars installments.

    I can’t wait to see it. By the way, have you heard that Star Trek Online went “Free To Play” today?

    Hey,everyone, lay off of Abrams and his staff. It’s been four years since the prequel/reboot and the insults about him and what he has done with Star Trek are really as old as dried up horseshit. If you don’t like what he and the new staff at Paramount have done, then don’t watch it.

    Some fans happen to enjoy what he and the new people have done. I’m one of those fans, and like some, I am looking forward to the next film.

    I mean, Gene Roddenberry once preached the Star Trek philosophy of acceptance and tolerance. Isn’t it about time the fans started practicing what Roddenberry preached?

    “Star Trek 2 has begun filming today” — I thought it was shot in the early 80s
