Countdown to Star Trek Movie Marathon

2009 has a great many films scheduled for release that we are waiting for with baited breath. One of the films at the top of my list is Star Trek. It's been 7 years since the last Star Trek film, Nemesis, came out in 2002 but the new one was a different take. We are going old school back to the days of Kirk, Spock, Bones, Scotty, Uhura, Sulu and Chekov and at the helm of this project is director J.J. Abrams. I've had a look at some of the casting, but beyond that I'm avoiding spoilers, trailers, images and any information on the film. I don't need them, I know I will see the film. It's Star Trek, which is all I need to know.

So the challenge is, that is a long time to avoid Trek news... what shall I do to fill the void? No anomaly nor rift in the space time continuum is needed, but a Star Trek Movie Marathon to countdown to the May 8, 2009 release date sounds perfect! I recently purchased the complete set so I'm ready to go. I'll be writing about each and every film here at Movie Moxie. As always the reviews will be spoiler free.

Sound like fun? Don't worry - you can play along! You can write about as many or as few of the films as you like, just note the schedule below for when to check in for the posts. They are all Tuesdays, so let's call them Trek Tuesdays! It's bi-weekly until right before the May release date and then it goes weekly. You can post your links in the comments here or on the film specific link. I'll compile the links and have them listed here as we go along.

One more thing, I've seen all the films but am curious to if I'll change my mind on any of the films after revisiting. I've written a list and ordered the films from 1 to 10 by favourites, and sealed it up. After watching all ten films, I'll do this again and compare and share! Feel free to join in on that as well!
