Not sure how many of you are into Trek...But......
« on: October 16, 2008, 06:44:04 PM »
For those of you who don't know, J.J. Abrams (the dude behind Lost, Alias, Cloverfield, etc) has made a new Star Trek Movie....
From what I've been reading, it's a prequel sort of thing about Kirk, Spock and the rest of the crew..
There's been lots of speculation about this movie since not much has really been given away besides a very basic description of
the plot (how the crew came together)... 

Here's the teaser trailer:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xuksQwGOtVs
And the date of the release has been pushed back to next summer instead of this
Christmas..


The guy who plays Sylar in the NBC show Heroes (Zachary Quinto) is
the new Spock..  Leonard Nimoy plays the "old Spock"..


Eric Bana plays one of several Romulan characters..


The crew (a re-cast of The Original Series crew)

Haven't they done everything already?

I've been wanting, and asking, for this since the Next Gen series ended.  Finally got something close to it with Enterprise, but they screwed that one up royally.  Archer was the biggest p****y ever.  Let's hope they get this one right.  Oh, wait, it's Kirk, it could be nothing but AWESOMENESS!

The only good thing in Enterprise was that slinky vulcan chick.


The original Star Trek is my favorite show. William Shatner over-acting and getting all the chicks while battling really bad special efects.  :aok

I used to love the Trek back in the day.  If I go back and watch TNG or the original I still enjoy them, but a non-continous storyline is what bugs me the most about the show.  I guess I became spoiled with BSG (new one)*. 

*Come on, who wants to fight about this show and have Pyro ban it along with politics?  :rofl

I'm looking forward to its release. I've seen every Star Trek movie and my son owns them all.

We need a damn thumbs-down smiley already.

They've already screwed it up. It just hasn't been released yet for everyone to see how badly. But they've screwed it up.

Bad casting. Ruined continuity. They should have just left well enough alone after Nemesis tanked, but I guess there was a last ounce of milk left in the cash cow they needed to squeeze out.

Blame BSG.

The first captain of the Enterprise I recognize is Robert April, who commanded the original before Pike. Nothing from that piece of trash Enterprise series exists as far as I'm concerned.
