Star Trek lovers, we just got a lump of coal stuck in our warp drives. Variety is reporting Paramount has pushed J.J. Abrams‘ long-awaited take on the film franchise from Dec. 25 to May 9, 2009. The studio believes Star Trek will have more success as an early summer event film than as a Christmas holiday offering.
But there’s a ray of sci-fi sunshine here. The new release date puts Trek in cineplexes just one week after the release of X-Men Origins:Wolverine. That film attempts to capitalize on Wolverine’s eternal popularity and it has to because they killed all the other important characters in X3. Anyone up for a Wolverine vs. Capt. Kirk fight? Now if we could only get Darth Vader to special guest referee.
I think thats a bad idea , more people may go see X-Men Origins:Wolverine instead of the star trek, the way the of ticket pricing and etc.. price of drinks and other stuff their , people are going to movies less , and are picking one of two too see and not much more than that or it could end up more people going to see star trek and less of the other one, or it could be less of that too, I guess gass pricing could effect this too , like say if gass pricing goes up
