‘Star Trek 3’ could see Shatner and Nimory reunite. C’mon man.
Were you fist-pumping about the possibility that the third Star Trek flick in the rebooted-whatever universe may forge its own identity? Separated from J.J. “Homage Is All I Know” Abrams, the film could stop wanking off lore and create its own mythos? Well, you might want to put the fist down.
Roberto Orci officially directing ‘STAR TREK 3.’ Aiight.
Roberto Orci is officially directing Star Trek 3. Dude’s never directed a film before. (Co)written some movies I’ve enjoyed, (co)written some movies I haven’t enjoyed. So, I am officially agnostic regarding this news. How about you folks?
Roberto Orci wants to direct ‘STAR TREK 3’, totally splits up with Alex Kurtzman
Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman have been dominating the block for a hot while now. Or, depending on your enjoyment of their movies, at the very least been making movies together. But now the dynamic duo is splitting up, with one of them aiming for the Star Trek 3 director’s chair.

Buggers Beware! Ender’s Game Is Blogging!!!
Despite the fact that Orson Scott Card is a raging homophobe, there’s no denying that Ender’s Game is one of the classics of science fiction literature. In it, a young boy named Ender Wiggin is taken to Battle School where is gifts as a strategist are revealed.

It’s “sequel” Speaker for the Dead, is one of the greatest books I’ve ever read. Period.
After decades of planned adaptation, the book is finally coming to the big screen with Hugo‘s Asa Butterfield as the lead, Gavin Hood (Tsotsi) directing, and Roberto Orci producing. The crew has started a Tumblr so we can all follow along with the production at home. This excites me more than Taco Tuesdays or Pizza Mon-Fridays.
