Trailer Watch: Thursday 6th Dec, 2013

To be absolutely honest, the trailer creating all the buzz online today is J.J. Abram’s Star Trek: Into Darkness.  The initial release was 1:06 long, but the extended trailer released in Japan (still in English though) came out soon after with 12 seconds of extra footage. That extended trailer is our highlight of the day. Enjoy;

If you are not a sci-fi geek or anything close to being a fan, you may be forgiven for mistaking the 2009 reboot, Star Trek, for being just another addition to that genre and the Star Trek franchise.  Star Trek (2009) was a perfetc balance, re-introduction and reboot to the series. It bridged the gap between avid Trekkies and the rest of the world 😉 If you are yet to watch it, do so before next year’s highly anticipated sequel. Iron Man 3 and Superman: Man of Steel, consider this a warning…
