Filming has finished, apparently: http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2012/05/09/zachary-quinto-star-trek-2-wrap/
Of course, there probably will be the usual re-shoots.

[Shasvre]

Nice. Maybe we'll even get a teaser at Comic Con then.

[Mr. Domino]

I'm still hella excited because, hey, MOAR STAWR TRECK, but I'm also quite disappointed that they're playing the Khan card.

It makes a certain amount of sense, as the studio is trying to capitalize on the household name-ness of certain aspects of Trek lore, and beyond using the central TOS characters in the first film, there's hardly a name more well-known than Khan to bring in Trek neophytes.

For once I actually stayed away from the spoiler tags, but it did not help.

Yeah, were you waiting for the trailer cuz I'm sure the villain would be revealed by the trailer

[Shasvre]

I'll pretty much stick with the official stuff for this, that's why I haven't really read or looked at anything since the first set photos.

[Ruadh]

Nimoy says he didn't film anything for this.

i for one am relieved, although Khan would work, I feel something else would be better.
