"My contribution dealt mostly with Spock's ship. I played a little visual pun in designing the cockpit - the triangle intersecting the circle is a reference to the Vulcan IDIC symbol from the original television show. And since the character's identity is still a mystery at this point in the film, I wanted this to be a tip off to all the Trekkies in the audience." - Nathan Schroeder








The greatest adventure of all time begins with Star Trek, the incredible story of a young crew’s maiden voyage onboard the most advanced starship ever created: the U.S.S. Enterprise. On a journey filled with action, comedy and cosmic peril, the new recruits must find a way to stop an evil being whose mission of vengeance threatens all of mankind. The fate of the galaxy rests in the hands of bitter rivals. One, James Kirk (Chris Pine), is a delinquent, thrill-seeking Iowa farm boy. The other, Spock (Zachary Quinto), was raised in a logic-based society that rejects all emotion. As fiery instinct clashes with calm reason, their unlikely but powerful partnership is the only thing capable of leading their crew through unimaginable danger, boldly going where no one has gone before.

STAR TREK (2009) was directed by J.J. Abrams and starred: Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Simon Pegg, Karl Urban, Zoe Saldana, Eric Bana, John Chu, Anton Yelchin, Winona Ryder.

The prequel comic says the Geordi LaForge designed the ship, and has cameos from most of the Next Gen cast. (Including Data, although they only hint at how he came back after the events of Nemesis.) The prequel comic makes Nero's backstory and motivations a lot clearer and generally makes the movie better. I still have to read the Into Darkness prequel; maybe it can make that movie suck less, too.

The design they went with in the movie was great. The 1st Star Trek was absolutely fantastic. Into Darkness...was a bloated, confused, but nonetheless entertaining mess.

Bitchin'. That design for the ship looks like a 3D Ship model of the Starfleet logo. Very nice.

Can someone else come back from the 24th century, before Into Darkness happens, and make IT not happen?
