STAR TREK 90210

Looks like Paramount still has a desperate hard-on to further hurt the Star Trek Mythos by rushing into an 11th Star Trek feature film. It will be written/directed by J.J.Abrams (Alias, Lost, MI:III).

Come on... we need a break. A breather. Some time away. Then in like 10 years, bring it back in a new form. I'm still trying to wash off the stink of DS9, VOYAGER and ENTERPRISE.


Oh, the best part: The movie's story will center on the early days of James T. Kirk and Mr. Spock, including their first meeting at Starfleet Academy and first outer space mission. Err...ok.... how the hell are you going to pull that one off? I'm sorry but Kirk and Spock can only be played by Shatner and Nimoy. End of discussion.

I can see it now....
Young Kirk:Josh Hartnett.
Young Spock
: Brandon Routh.
Rampaging Maniac: Me.-----------------------------------------------------------
*thanks, Mr Legs - for the new tagline!

Kirk will be played by Sean William Scott. Spock will be played by Ashton Kutcher. I'm of course making this up, but something equally as hideous could and probably will happen. Hollywood execs are morons and completely out of touch.

Oh come on! DS9 was not as bad as Voyager and Enterprise.

Ok, DS9 was a notch above Voyager & Enterprise. But most of DS9 was terrible! It was like The Love Boat in space. The only time I ever hear anyone try to convince me otherwise, they bring up the ONE season where they were at war. ONE. Season.

The IDEA was cool, but execution (writing and acting) was embarrassing.

But hey, I'm not a Trekkie/Trekker, so this is just my opinion.

....not saying YOU are a trekkie/trekker - clarification.

Maybe they'll just airbrush the wrinkles and extra weight off of Nemoy and Shatner, or make it animated with their voices--that could be fun.
But honestly, I think Mr. Legs is right - hollywood execs are morons and out of touch and this will probably suck, even for me, someone who liked Voyager.
