thank you. just edit your post and insert the link at the top. Thanks for the info. - vincentchase  636.6 #167 2:17PM
Thanks for the help. Sorry I didn't post the source as well. I was just so excited - foobeka  244.1 #1055 2:19PM
No worries at least you are good sport about it. - vincentchase  636.6 #167 2:29PM
Star Trek and Star Wars under his belt. Interesting. - Willierose  1172.6 #68 2:13PM
I thought that's why he declined it a while ago - sleepyhead  368.0 #374 2:17PM
This was my first thought too, I don't know how the two camps will react - Sarafina  398.5 #335 3:33PM
This better not be a joke.... I want this to happen so badly..... - madsdad  1119.6 #73 2:16PM
Yes. Just, yes. - KylaShea  533.2 #212 2:30PM
I've read like 3 different articles saying the same thing that their source is from someone within the production, so it seems real. My only concern is that Abrams denied it multiple times and said he's a big fan and much rather be part of the audience than behind the camera, so weird how he was convinced suddenly. But nonetheless I'm excited, I was never a Star Trek fan, but the newest one he made was absolutely wonderful! Thanks for posting! - sleepyhead  368.0 #374 2:36PM
One article I read says his contract with paramount is up, maybe he was waiting for that? - foobeka  244.1 #1055 2:40PM
Hm, but Star Trek is under Paramount and reason he denied it in the first place cause of his "loyalty to Trek" ohy this frustrating not knowing everything! We need complete conformation from Disney and Abrams!! - sleepyhead  368.0 #374 3:02PM
I accept this gift. - tuesday737  1074.4 #78 2:48PM
I'm okay with this director, hopefully not a lot of lens flares in the movie. - SorcererD91  473.9 #252 2:53PM
Give me Nolan or Jon Favreua. - vincentchase  636.6 #167 3:18PM
I think this Trekie is gonna ruin the franchise. - vincentchase  636.6 #167 3:24PM
Nolan! Yes! - AshleyLynn22  747.6 #136 3:36PM
People thought Abrams was going to destroy Star Trek. That one turned out quite alright. - Slotherini  882.3 #99 3:44PM
Being a mommy of a star war fan, I can tell that no matter what happens or who makes it, the younger generation won't care as much as we do. They love the whole thing about it, so anyone can do it, the younger generation will love it. - MarshaMouse  2834.6 #15 3:40PM
Two words: lens flare - mightymike10  271.6 #807 3:42PM
Yay! lol =/ - VfxGenie  1352.7 #59 3:42PM
Pff... - Slotherini  882.3 #99 3:46PM
you ready to make some sweet lens flares? - chris.  2507.1 #24 3:47PM
Hahahaha @slotherini, @chris of course if they bring me back for the movie. - VfxGenie  1352.7 #59 5:16PM
Camera shake - mightymike10  271.6 #807 3:52PM
What?! I just read he turned it down...cause of his Trekkie ties. - PrincessDuckie  576.1 #189 4:00PM
that would be the best news of my day. - vincentchase  636.6 #167 4:04PM
Just= few days ago. It was an interview with Abrams. - PrincessDuckie  576.1 #189 4:21PM
I'm only semi-Star Wars smart so correct me if I am wrong, but are the 7th, 8th, and 9th movies suppose to be based on Han and Leia's kids? - AshleyLynn22  747.6 #136 4:16PM
Prepare for lens flare everyone... Lots and lots of lens flare... - JRDrummer_CM  789.3 #117 4:37PM
I was hoping he would do a LOST movie!! - Willierose  1172.6 #68 4:39PM
Mind blown...in a good way :) this will be epic! - skywalker661  231.2 #1220 5:46PM
