Late

Sorry I didn't post this a few weeks ago.

This is the teaser for the new Star Trek movie that is being made. Looks like they're definitely going for an Original Series look. Or (as I've read in interviews with producer J.J. Abrams) at least going for creating Original Series buzz. (Or to be a little more cynical about it, they're shouting "It's not Enterprise! It's not Nemesis! Please come see our movie!")

I'm all in favor of them just making a Star Trek movie. Recast Kirk and the Gang. There have been six James Bonds - we can't have two Spocks? Heck, there have been three Kitty Prydes and two Hank McCoys. And of course two Buffy Summers. (But only one Malcolm Reynolds.) Just make a good Star Trek adventure. Of course, this will lead them to a big build up before someone says "He's DEAD, Jim!" or "Beam me up Scotty." Then a pause and a look.

OR they'll play it pretty straight without the winks and nods and just concentrate on making something as fun and as cool as Star Trek used to be. That would be nice. But hey, I'm a blogger not a bricklayer.
