Star Trek

Since I'm not always "in the loop", I just found out that a new Star Trek movie is coming out. I've always been a Star Wars fan and I've never seen any of the older Star Trek movies, but I'm curious how this one will compare. So basically, how pissed off will the Trekkies be about this one?

Link to the trailer

First time I've seen that trailer, and I'm not very happy. I want a DS9 movie already.

after the travesty that was Nemesis, that didn't seem very likely. be that as it may, i'd much rather a DS9 movie with jadzia dax vs ezri dax.

this "reboot" as they are calling it, could be promising. i'm digging Zachary Quinto as young Spock, but Simon Pegg better do Scotty justice.

Lets see if Simon Pegg in Star Trek can match Samuel L. Jackson in Star Wars

im not really a trekkie but i did enjoy watching Next Generation, and if you can overlook the cheesiness the original series was good too, havent seen all the movies so i really cant comment on how it will live up to the rest.

i started with next generation as well. DS9 was really good. Voyager would be hit or miss. i liked enterprise's characters, but i had a nerd meltdown regarding the klingons: if enterprise is set before Kirk's enterprise, the klingons should not have the mega brow. my wife intervened as the voice of reason, i got passed it and let it go. then they encountered the borg, and that was that, i stopped watching. then it got cancelled.

the only thing that came out of Enterprise that i thought was of value is "subservient quadraped" referring to humans' inclination to have pets, apparently the only species in the universe to do so.

but as hard of a trekkie i was, Babylon 5 came along and was so much better than all of the treks. well, DS9 comes close, but there is still that trek sterility inherent in the show despite the content and the various story arcs that made DS9 so good.

I'm not happy with some of the images I'm seeing floating around.

star trek continuity errors

'twas alright

its really impossible to complain about it, everything was done well. My only complaint is JJ Abrams typical confusing plot bullshit.
