Chris Pine spoke with Ain't It Cool.com and spoke about the amazing 3D sequences.
"The
movie is relentless, and for the visually inclined people who want to
see major sequences, there are a couple specifically that I think... I'm
not a huge 3-D fan, but I think will be incredible. But what I'm more
excited about and what I think they did so well is that really the story
is that much better, and the journey that these guys go on is that much
more, and what they always talked about is that even though they're a
crew from what we know about the original team, the fun of getting there
is following that journey to where they become that tight-knit crew.
It's no fun if they're already a tight-knit crew. So suffice it to say,
they're still learning how to get along."
Writer-producer Alex Kurtzman talked with The Hollywood Reporter about how this Enterprise crew is still finding their stride.
"The
assumption that we did not want to make was that just because he's in
the chair and they're on the bridge together that they're the crew that
you remember from the original series. They're not - the crew from the
original series had gone on many, many journeys, they were a well-oiled
machine in terms of how they function, and these characters are still
figuring out who they are and who they are to each other. And I did not
want to jump so far ahead that we missed a really important emotional
connection to that transition for them."
Finally, actor Noel Clarke spoke with Digital Spy, and teased that he knew the title of the film, but would not reveal it.
"Yes, obviously. Am I going to tell you? No.
