Originally , the film writer predict the book for the Star Trek sequel would be doneby Christmas 2009 . Then it wasChristmas 2010 . Now it ’s still in the whole works . We have no theme why , so we made up some reasons .
Star Trek 2 May Not Have An genuine scoundrel
Actually , the script might be done by now — J.J. Abramssaid it was n’t finished yetas of a couple workweek ago , but that could have deepen . But it seems potential that when the hand is really done , someone will tweet about it , or possibly set off some photon torpedos to lionise .
J.J. Abrams offers cryptic clues for Super 8 and Star Trek sequel , plus costar Sebastian Shan talk Captain America !
( And yes , before anybody jumps in to say this , it ’s actually a very good matter that they ’re contract the sentence to get this right — and the longer they spend on the script , the more likely we are to get a worthy subsequence . Plus , with filming not supposed to ramp up until tardy saltation or early summertime , there ’s flock of fourth dimension . )
So why is the book delayed ? Here are our guesses — none of which imply needing to visualise out a way to reduplicate the amount of electron lens flare this time around . And there are no spoilers below , unless we ’re psychical .
10 ) They need to remember of something cool than “ Red Matter ” to be the main gimmick this clock time around . There were a few dozen meetings demand before they come up with Blue Chocolate , which has half the calories and can ferment planets into marzipan . Mmm … marziplanets .
9 ) The studio kept demanding more motorcycle , classic cars and bar fights . The “ causa ” did n’t quite understand that the movie starts out with our guys already on the starship , in deep blank space . So in the end , Kirk and his crew had to make a lengthy sojourn to the Biker Bar on Starbase 27 — the same spot where Lobo always advert out .
- So hold back a sec — can Spock in reality get put without being in Pon Farr ? And if not , can our guy have a small mini - Pon Farr at the start of the movie , and then another one about two - thirds of the manner through ? possibly like three or four micro - Pon Farrs sum ? Think of it like a Pon Farr every 20 - 30 transactions . He can ? groovy . Thanks , hombre .
7 ) The all - important “ Kirk disobey a direct order from Starfleet and gets relieve of command ” sequence take to have a douchebag Commodore show up for extra pizzaz . There was a wee communication partitioning , and for a while the Commodores , the 1970s blue funk stripe , were promenade onto the Enterprise bridge circuit and stripping Kirk of his command . Also the sequence where the douchebag Commodore fly the enterprisingness into a mortal cloud of blue chocolate , over Kirk ’s objections , lack the necessary oomph .
6 ) Spock ’s no upright half - comrade Sybok just did n’t work as the new barman ( and everyone ’s confidant ) on the Enterprise . Even though the “ Sybok and Harry Mudd start a peculiar faith together ” sequence was pure gold . And everybody really liked the part where Sybok helps Scotty ’s flyspeck foreign acquaintance get past his worked up pain . Greg Grunberg was really emotional to wear the Vulcan ear and Jesus beard , too .
5 ) The Klingon - Gorn confederation was a cool idea . But they got kind of stuck explaining why the Klingons did n’t just roast the Gorn on a tongue , like tasty iguanas . Plus the new Spider - Man is already supposedly doing the “ lounge lizard ” matter , and the suits were worry there would be lounge lizard brand confusion .
4 ) They need to pay testimonial to Gene Roddenberry by having a “ cosmic / ghostlike ” chronological succession at the end . The Blue Chocolate was go to be revealed as some kind of godlike being that want the Enterprise crew to contain being so trigger-happy , and maybe wear more rude fabric . Lindelof wanted Kirk to bosom his late daddy in the Blue Chocolate realm , Orci and Kurtzman desire some variety of incomprehensible symbol . In the end , nobody was glad with the “ God ” thing .
3 ) Everybody want Uhura to kick back some can this prison term around . But they could n’t figure out how to have her rush ass in a teeny minidress , without needing a luck of strategically place lens flare . The author spent two months trying to figure out a plot of ground reason why Uhura might have to put on some knickers , or maybe some leg covering , for part of the movie . What if they go to a planet of leg - biting monsters , and she has to put some protective leg coverings on ? Or maybe Spock show her a special Vulcan ritual , in which practitioners must wear pants as a sign of devotion to pure system of logic ?
2 ) They realize there were other Trek film they could harken back to besides Wrath of Khan , and went a bit barmy for a while there . In one script drawing , every fifteen minutes Kirk kick a different person off a cliff while pronounce , “ I have had enough of you ! ” ( And then fifteen moment later , “ I ’ve also had enough of you ! And you ! As for you — I ’ve almost had enough of you . total back in fifteen transactions . ” ) There were also some attempt to let in barefaced womanhood with wing collar , and Spock trying and failing to say cuss - parole .
1 ) Now that we ’ve gotten the crew together , how can we break them up ? We call for aphrodisiac , sexy conflict and member of the bridge crew yelling at each other . And possibly hitting each other in the aspect . The tenth draught had a whole sequence where Kirk and Spock each blame the other for get Tribbles in the Slusho ! dispenser in the officers ’ mess hall , and it got horrifying . Then they try out with a subplot where Scotty attempt to utilize the railway locomotive room as a brewery , with hilariously wicked consquences .
