You might also want to try raw strings.  This should be identical to 
Peter's version, but easier to read:

subprocess.Popen([
  r"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_05\bin\java.exe",
  r"-cp",
  r"C:\antlr\antlr-3.4-complete.jar",
  r"org.antlr.Tool",
  r"C:\Users\Jason\Documents\antlr\java grammar\Java.g"],
   stdout=subprocess.PIPE).communicate()

although I would probably refactor it like:

args = [r"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_05\bin\java.exe",
        r"-cp",
        r"C:\antlr\antlr-3.4-complete.jar",
        r"org.antlr.Tool",
        r"C:\Users\Jason\Documents\antlr\java grammar\Java.g",
       ]
proc = subprocess.Popen(args, stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
proc.communicate()
