It's probably not due until 2015 at the earliest, most likely later than that, and we might have someone different at the helm (cause JJ will be working on the Star Wars films, though we know that Chris, Zack and co are contracted for three Trek films with the possibility to extend).
I'm wondering what everyone would like to see with this third film. Lets assume for the moment too that the third film will be the final film and that all the cast and crew will go on to other projects afterward. My reason for this is simply to see how everyone would like to go out with a bang.
Me? Well the Klingons have to be involved for starters. They've touched on them a little already, though I'm talking space battles too. I'd love to see a bunch of Klingon Warships / Birds of Prey go up against a couple of Federation ships, of which would include a second Constitution Class ship (we've a selection to choose from).
Furthermore, I think it would also be nice to see the Romulans in this new timeline. I know they were the main focus in Trek I (personally, I think that was a mistake; Abrams should have just went with a straight reboot and not connected his Trek with Prime Trek) though it would be nice I think to see how these new Romulans operate.
Maybe a story about a potential alliance between the Klingons and Romulans; one of which Kirk and crew are required to sabotage. Sure, the Federation doesn't work this way, but there ain't nothing like fabricating data (ask Sisko). We know that the exchange in TOS was cloaks for warp, though we know that the Klingons already have cloaks, and considering nobody queried the warp drive of the Romulan ship that attacked the Kelvin and/or Vulcan, I can only assume the Romulans of Abrams Universe have warp drive already.
Doesn't mean an alliance can't be formed for other reasons. Failing that, JJ's take on the Tholians.

Also, the Romulans have warp drive in Enterprise - we see the Rom chameleon ship using warp drive -and the Enterprise canon is still consistent with the JJ timeline. Things don't diverge until after Enterprise.
My guess is that the 3rd movie will touch on Nomad/V'ger.
while the enterprise is off exploring and are about to be called back to defend the feds from attack when they discover something. one of those powerful god like energy sources that have unlimited power or something (real old school trek gene always loved).
this is seen by everyone as the key to dominating the galaxy for whomever controls it sparking a race to acquire it. However its actually some sort of trap by another brand new species who are trying to invade this region of space and all 3 races end up having to work together to stop them and save the galaxy. this leaves the 3 major races with a tentative peace treaty being signed at the end.
this new race could then be used further in any possible tv series.
i think this idea covers many bases. we get to see more of the klingons and the romulans but at the same time we get a brand new threat to deal with. we get plenty of action but it ends in peace and the classic trek idea of overcoming your differences to wok together and starfleet returning to the more normalised version we know from the prime universe. it also gets some exploring involved.
Stop this nonsense. Stop calling this trash Star Trek. It is entertaining but it is not Star Trek. They created a new timeline so they could do anything and what do they do? They do a Wrath of Khan remake...
Bring back a new Star Trek TV series set a few years after the Next Generation era, please. Star Trek has always been better on TV than on the big screen.
I say yes to the Q Continuum. I believe with what has happened in ST 2009 and ST-ID that the alternate events would be reason for the emergeance of Q to happen sooner than it did in the prime timeline.
I say yes to the Borg. Everything that has happened in the show Enterprise is still intact. There was an episode where the Borg was found on a planet. A twist or two and a few plot devices and you have the Borg arriving earlier also. Maybe Nero's ship popped out in their sector and they adapted it. Alerting them to Romulus and Remus and making them more deadly than ever.
I say yes to past and future Captains and crew. While the idea of time travel in ST is not new, every time there is a time travel episode the concept is original.
Aside from all that, I say yes to Kirk and Carol getting married.
I say when does pon farr hit Spock? I would love to see the interaction between Uhura and Spock then.
You know how at the beginning of ID the crew was on a mission? How about use the final tv episode as stepping off stone in part 3. We know the show ended here. Final mission. Now next movie.
JJverse is like STO: no matter how much you want to do something original the fans really only wants to see the old crappola they've been seeing for decades.
Perhaps a film with no large scale battles this time.
Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

Now that would be interesting to see.
"Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."
-Thomas Marrone
Opening credits
Time ship arrives sets off some temporal weapon
Time line restored
The end
HAHAH YES!! This would be amazing
While I think this was a good episode a better one to turn into a film would be from season 3 of ST:TOS called "The Enterprise Incident"
Kirk and Spoke steal a romulan cloaking device, love interest between Spock and Romulan commander (complicated by involvement with Uhura). Scope for the odd space battle, and stays in theme with current films and timeline.

and there is nothing you can do about it.

That depends...will Peter be allowed to add in all of Gene Roddenberry's scribbles, side notes, and appendices and thereby make three movies instead of one?
I dunno...I always thought Louis CK would make a great Q ......

How about stop telling people how to think and feel like you do about Star Trek.
:rolleyes:
