The folks at Paramount Pictures just won’t give up on this new Star Trek movie — it is as if they want this thing to make hundreds of millions of dollars or something.

I’m back today to try and make it up to you with a buffet of news to get your movie loving motors running. Of course, my hope is that your motors are hyrbid engines, as today is Earth Day and we should be doing what we can for the old gal.

Spoilers can be unavoidable. Especially if you go looking for them. But can you still be in with the in-crowd and not have your film experience ruined?

Today’s Early Edition may not be as early as it normally is, but it is still morning in California — and since much of our readership is out there on the West Coast, I’m not ready to title-swap to “Not-So-Early Edition” just yet.

Thanks to a little positive buzz form the surprise screening in Austin and some positive reviews from premieres around the world, J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek seems to be the talk of the town. And as Paramount can now smell the blood of this wounded animal known as the public conscience, they have kicked the marketing machine into warp speed.

Josh Radde gets thrown for a loop by some wayward inter-office correspondence, then quickly realizes that Michael Keaton and Diane Keaton are not the same person. The point is, one of the two are starring in a new movie with Jeff Goldblum and Harrison Ford.

The marketing blitz for Star Trek, the J.J. Abrams directed reboot of the beloved franchise, has been well under way for the past few weeks. And seeing as the film hits theaters on May 8th, I would assume that we haven’t seen the last bit of flashy marketing for this decidedly flashy movie.

Producer, director, eye glass wearing super entertainment machine J.J. Abrams decided this week to extend the deal the keeps his production company, Bad Robot, and Paramount Pictures in bed together making movies. And that is important.

Lately Star Trek has been rocking our world with all sorts of awesome — including a very intense TV spot last week — but these new international posters are well, bad.

A few days ago the folks at Paramount Pictures announced that the premiere for J.J. Abrams’ highly anticipated Star Trek film will take place at the world famous Sidney Opera House on April 7th. Yet somehow they’ve already started partying with hot green girls.

Around here we try to keep both the fandom and the use of exclamation marks in check, providing keen insight and fully formed opinions on all things movies so that you, the reader, can make the most informed decisions. But just for one moment I would like to suspend that and say that this Star Trek trailer is AWESOME!!
