PARAMOUNT THRILLED WITH NEW MOVIE

Star Trek producers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman confirmed that all is going well with editing on the new movie, noting that Paramount "were thrilled, so it's exciting to have their support," while director J.J.

REPORTING FOR DUTY

Christopher Pine tells us about his journey to become the new face of Captain Kirk in next year's blockbuster movie. "He is actually a bit scarier to take on, because it’s a little bit closer to home. You can’t put on all the tics and the actor tricks – you have to play it a little bit closer to the bone, which makes it a little bit more vulnerable, and definitely a little bit scarier. It made me feel a little bit safer that I wasn’t originating the role; I was merely taking it over for a little bit to see what I could do with it."

KIRK THE MAVERICK

In our ongoing series debunking some of the myths surrounding Star Trek, we ask whether James T. Kirk’s reputation as a maverick commander is really justified. "When one looks back on the character of James T. Kirk, often the phrases that come to mind are 'doesn’t follow orders,' 'goes his own way,' 'maverick,' 'plays by his own rules.'

STAR TREK: THE EXPERIENCE

We look back at 10 years of Star Trek in Las Vegas, with interviews with staff of and visitors to The Experience, as well as memories shared by many contributors to Star Trek Magazine. “It was always very vain for me to say, ‘I’m going to my bar in Las Vegas.’ I’m saddened by the closing. I won’t have a bar anymore,” recalls Quark actor Armin Shimerman while Gene Roddenberry's son Eugene notes that “Quark’s was for me a place where I could meet up with like-minded people and talk about other things besides Star Trek.”
