 published: 2013-05-18Watch William Shatner And Billy Dee Williams Make Star Wars Suggestions To J.J. Abrams ABC's affiliation with Disney seems to be paying off a bit more for Jimmy Kimmel Live since Disney acquired the Star Wars franchise.

Abrams visited Kimmel's show.  filed under: Star Trek Into Darkness

 published: 2013-05-16To 3D Or Not To 3D: Buy The Right Star Trek Into Darkness Ticket Unbelievably, J.J. Abrams' first Star Trek opened before Avatar, in a time when not every summer blockbuster was expected to come out in 3D, and before movies were put through the post-conversion wringer to cash in.
