 Star Trek DVDs have always been ridiculously overpriced, but because the fans keep buying them at $99 a season, CBS keeps pricing them there. Happily for all of us regular people, retailers like Amazon.com aren't obliged to sell their product at MSRP, and occassionally they throw the nice sale our way. Like this one. Amazon.com has all science fiction DVDs on sale, with Trek movies going for $6.99 and single season sets at just $35.49.

 In an interview with Newsweek about the success of the US debut of MacBeth, Patrick Stewart was, as expected, asked about Star Trek. The interviewer seems to have taken a naive cynical view of Star Trek and its fans and phrased her questions about the series in a most negative of manners. Of course, given the general stigma that seems to be associated with Star Trek, that shouldn't come as much of a surprise.

 Nasty weather delayed the delivery of the external fuel tank for the space shuttle Discovery a few weeks back. Since the tanks are delivered by barge from New Orleans to Cape Canaveral, severe storms forced the NASA Michoud Assembly Facility where the tanks are built to hold back delivery for nearly a week. The delay was not expected to push back the launch of Discovery early next month, but after NASA managers crunched the numbers, they realized that they would have to postpone the launch one week. The week delay put the launch on the Memorial Day weekend, so in order to give NASA's thousands of workers the weekend off in what is due to be a busy launch year, the launch was delayed to Saturday, May 31st.

 Here’s the moment you’ve all been waiting for. After months of repeated denials, Star Trek has taken a cue from Apple and kept their biggest secret under wraps. Until today. Principle filming was reported to have ended on last Thursday, with JJ Abrams headed off for the Japanese premiere of Cloverfield and returned to the Star Trek lot to oversee a handful of ‘pick-up shots’ with a few of the main cast. That’s when a familiar face was spotted entering Paramount’s Stage 9: William Shatner.

 Master Replicas for years has been pumping out functional museum quality Star Trek prop replicas. Last month at Toy Fair Master Replicas announced two new prop-quality replicas, the Starfleet Assault Phaser from The Final Frontier and The Undiscovered Country and a Mark IX Science Tricorder as seen in Deep Space Nine, Voyager, and the first three Next Generation feature films. Both are limited to 2000 pieces with an acrylic display base and certificate with the lot number. Both also feature working lights and sound and are available for pre-order from Entertainment Earth, and are due to ship in October. Pictures after the break.

 James Cawley isn’t the only New Voyages actor to secure a spot on Star Trek (2009). Jeff Quinn, who played Spock in the first four episodes of New Voyages (now Phase II), however, got his part the traditional way. When Headquarters Casting put out a casting call for Star Trek, looking for people with 'unique facial features,' sharp-faced Quinn was quick to jump at the chance.

 I just report the news. After Screen Rant came out saying that there would be a new teaser with Star Trek coming up on May 22nd with the premiere of Paramount's Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, TrekMovie.com is now reporting that Screen Rant's report was erroneous. When ST09 was due to premiere on Christmas 2008 they had been planning on putting a Trek trailer, possibly a full trailer, with Indy 4, but when ST09 was delayed four months to May 8, 2009, so was the first full trailer. While we don't yet know when the complete trailer will premiere, it doesn't look like it will be showing up with either of Paramount's big summer 2008 films, Indy 4 and Iron Man. All I know is that I'll be in the theater anyway.

 JJ Abrams buddy and admitted Trekkie Tom Cruise apparently stopped by the Star Trek soundstage for a second time this past week and chatted with Abrams. Cruise also asked if he could meet Leonard Nimoy, who is playing old Spock, a character of which Cruise is reportedly a huge fan. This time the report is coming from "a source close to" Cruise and has been picked up by the mainstream press, complete with speculation that he will be playing a previously unannounced part in Star Trek. While there is no evidence to corroborate such speculation, when Tom Cruise was spotted on the set of Tropic Thunder (due out in August 08), he ended up with a small role as well. Oh, and MSNBC... it's Mr. Spock, not Dr. Spock.

 One of the most hotly anticipated films of 2008 - Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, starring Harrison Ford as the iconic title character (hint: he's not the crystal skull) - is apparently going to have a bit of Star Trek to it. According to Screen Rant, a new teaser for ST09 will be debuting in front of Indiana Jones when the flick premieres on May 22nd. They claim that their source is 100% sure of the teaser, and that s/he has been reliable in the past. Additionally, the teaser is claimed to be a continuation of the previous teaser (from January), which showed the construction of the Enterprise with voice-overs by historic space program persona and Leonard Nimoy, and will feature new audio. There's no confirmation as to whether we'll see or here any of the cast (principle shooting wrapped just yesterday). The May 22nd date is 351 days before the May 8, 2009, premiere of Star Trek.
[UPDATE: Not happening. Sorry folks!]

 It's been 141 days since cameras started rolling Star Trek (2009), and now producer/director JJ Abrams has wrapped up principle photography for the film. It's not the longest Star Trek production (The Motion Picture comes in at 24 weeks), but the 20 week production time is quite long for most movies. The filming did end before schedule, in keeping with Scotty's famous advice about how to become a miracle worker: "It's always good to be a wee bit conservative on paper."
