A Bit o’ Star Trek 2 News and Nonsense

? While the principle cast filming is done, this pic of Scotty and Chekov off-set has been circulating the net. You may note they’re in different uniforms from what they wore in the first movie. Is this some kind of fancy military dress from an awards ceremony? Does evil Benedict Cumberbatch take over Starfleet and make everyone dress in Stalin-esque togs? Do Scotty and Chekov’s regular uniforms accidentally get beamed into a star so they have to wear these hand-me-downs? No man can say! It is both news and nonsense! (Via io9)

? Meanwhile, there was a skit on the MTV Movie Awards starring Joel McHale, which fetaured a brief cameo by Trek 2 director J.J. Abrams. As you can see from the screenshot above, the computer behind him appears to have a picture of a Klingon in it. OMG DOES THIS MEAN THERE’LL BE KLINGONS IN STAR TREK 2?!!!?! Well, that’s an incredibly dumb, tenuous connection… except this is exactly the type of fan-baiting bullshit Abrams loves to pull, so it is technically possible. It’s nonsense and news! Huzzah!
