Orci Briefly Comments on Star Trek Sequel

Bob Orci, one of the writers for the upcoming Star Trek sequel, occasionally likes to lurk the web to read about what fan are saying about Star Trek. One of his stomping grounds is sadly not this site but TrekMovie where he answered a few questions about the sequel. He spoke about the budget (larger than last), scope (bigger), and mentioned that more of the engine will be seen in the film. In regards to what "more" means to the budget, the previous film's estimated budget was $145 million so as long as in that range that should give Abrams the room to make excellent use of visual special effects and add more lens flares.
