Forget next summer: Trek 2 won't even start shooting until January

[heisenberg]

Remember all those rumors about Star Trek 2 not being able to make its June 29, 2012, release date? You can pretty much take that to the bank.
Although Paramount Pictures has still not officially scrapped that release date for the sequel to J.J. Abrams' smash 2009 franchise reboot, writers Alex Kurtzman and Bob Orci more or less confirmed that Trek 2 will not be ready for next summer.
In an interview done by Cinepremiere in San Diego last Saturday, on the red carpet for the premiere of Cowboys & Aliens, the screenwriting pair said that they don't expect the movie to begin shooting until January 2012.
That rules out a summer 2012 release for sure—given the amount of post-production that these movies need—and even puts a December 2012 launch in question.

I didn't have any expectations for a sequel, let alone a release date, but when I read that I still somehow feel disappointed.

Sigh, Good things come to those who wait. I really hope they make it worth the wait.

Indeed. That's why I keep waiting for Star Wars Episode VII.
