According to the sources, Abrams says that the script is locked so... *shrug*
BTW, I read the spoilers and I'm still a bit miffed about the plot. Kind of still hits me as unoriginal and just a rehash really. You know, going back to things in old episodes (like when DS9 went to the TOS Tribble episode) is fine and dandy for an episode but not a movie. Either way I have said from the beginning when they announced Academy days that the Kobayashi Maru was going to be a big point in the movie. ok I won't mention anything else spoiler-ish.
anyway they say they are filming at locations here in SoCal so I was watching some of the clips to see if I can figure out where they are. The video of the chapel they are using looks rather familiar but I can't quite place it...

Hey I was wondering about this non-spoilery bit from that link:
| Quote: | | by terms of the Separation of Rights clause of the Writers Guild's Minimum Basic Agreement (MBA), and if Mr. Abrams--with whom I'm currently on strike--or anyone else, at Paramount or elsewhere, thinks they're going.. |
Does that mean that the movie will be delayed by this strike too? |
Trying not to give anything away here for those who don't want, but I took that to mean that the author who penned the ep some elements from the movie script are based on - if spoilers are correct (was that vague enough?) - is trying to muscle in for a cut of the $$. Guess it depends on his contract if his claim is valid or not.
Even if he's on strike, he can still be financially compensated for having written something in 197-- whenever, I imagine.

I've still got mixed feelings despite the trailer. BTW, the link on the News page here to the "spoiler" script leakage... I heard from other sources that Roberto Orci has said they aren't true. However, the guy on the site that leaked it was correct when it came to the Alien vs Predator script despite producers exclaiming it wasn't the real script. If it is the real script of the new trek movie I will be very mad to say the least...

Sort of comforting:
| Quote: | LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- Simon Pegg won't be beaming up any differences for his take on starship Enterprise's chief engineer "Scotty" in the upcoming "Star Trek" film.
Pegg
"I am playing 'Scotty,' but James Doohan is 'Scotty,' " Pegg told The Associated Press at the "Run Fatboy Run" premiere afterparty at Les Deux nightclub Monday night.
Doohan played "Scotty" in the '60s TV series and in several movies.
"I tried to approach the role like he did. He's a Scottish engineer who works in outerspace. He's a bit of a brawler. I didn't try to facilitate change," the 38-year-old British actor said." |

I'm still scared.  I'm hoping they'll tell more at the big Grand Slam Convention in April where both Quinto and Nimoy are appearing on the Sunday event.

Oh, cool!
Found a bigger version here... bootleg so it's a bit annoying in its bad quality.
I like Karl!
do.
