Yeah, when I heard about it I was excited in the fact that I thought it would illustrated what led up to the war with the Klingons.  Instead, we got a cool story line with one hell of a pu**y commanding officer.

Or do you mean Enterprise was set in the time I described?  I guess I'll go look it up.


Well, the Enterprise in the Christoper Pike episode looked identical to the Enterprise in the rest of the original series.   Yet in the new movie, the Enterprise is going to look somewhat different.

Christopher Pike is the captain of the Enterprise in this new movie.   He is being played by Bruce Greenwood.  Winona Ryder plays Spock's mother, Amanda Grayson.

Jennifer Morrison from TV's popular HOUSE series will play the young Dr. Carol Marcus.  This will thus be only the second time that a Star Trek episode or movie has James T. Kirk actually getting a woman pregnant.

The original TV series really made him out to be quite a womanizer.  But that was back in the 60's, when women were still sex objects.

Not exactly identical, Sig. The Enterprise had undergone some minor refitting between the events of the original pilot during Pike's command and when Kirk took over (some minor differences in the hull. There's a website somewhere that details the specific changes). But unless that teaser is Enterprise undergoing another refit before being turned over to Pike, it looks like they're removing Bob April from the continuity entirely.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

i was hoping they would go back to the original campy special effects (and set) they re-enacted so effectively with DS9's "Tribble" episode..it captured the spirit of the series..if only for 60 minutes.

Oh well..looks like Hollywood regurgitates once again.(hope not)
